    The pollo, highly recommend this!
    Suzy H.

    A wonderful evening of new and exciting foods. This is a great place to experience with others who love to share! The roasted beets, roasted cauliflower, guacamole, two types of aguachiles (one red, one green), rice, and the pollo and bistec were so different and delicious! (I'm feeling pressure to step-up my meals at home.) Very friendly and knowledgeable service in the bougie Pullman Market. The energy is alive but it's difficult to hear, so bring your outdoor voice or try this place whenever it may not be crowded. (Good luck!)

    We give the food a 6/10 but the drinks and vibes were extremely laid back. We had a wonderful host who was helpful and informative.

    roasted beets with Mole
    Ben R.

    Decided to go here after many recommendations from locals, and it did not disappoint. Unique and authentic Mexican dishes, full of flavor. The guac with warm tortillas, paired with the frijoles rancheros was a perfect bite. The roasted beets with mole sauce was THE BEST bite of the night. Absolute must try, even if you don't like beets. A great mole sauce. The Pollo Asado with all of the sides was bursting with flavor. Lots of great flavor combinations. Mezquite is on the Michelin guide for a reason.

    I stopped in recently for the first time for a dinner with a friend to catch up. Honestly I didn't know too much about the spot before we went in but our server did a great job of explaining how the menu pays homage to the Sonoran region while using fresh, local Texas ingredients. It was also my friend's first time and since there were so many different yummy sounding dishes on the menu we decided to do the Norteno Menu - which essentially was where the chef selects multiple courses for you and the dinner essentially becomes a surprise of "What delicious thing comes next?" Our dinner ended up consisting of: Aguachile Verde, Guacamole, Roasted mole beets, the pollo served in a rojo sauce, and a sweet end with a Tres Leches cake. Every dish was unique and consisted of an explosion of flavors. The chicken was soooo good - especially when you paired it with one of the fresh and absolutely delicious tortillas they bring to the table. Such a great dining experience and ambiance. I'll be back!

    PESCADO Swordfish, Salsa Verde
    Matt L.

    I'm in San Antonio for a quick work trip and found Mezquite, so I had to give it a try. Located inside Pullman Market, this Michelin Bib Gourmand spot is known for its authentic Sonoran flavors, and it definitely lives up to the hype. Everything is made with fresh Texas ingredients, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The house made Sonoran wheat tortillas with beef tallow are worth stopping in for all by themselves. We started with the Ceviche Negro and Aguachile Verde. The yellowfin tuna was incredibly fresh, and the ceviche brought a nice kick of heat balanced with the charred fruit, cucumber, and peanut. The aguachile was bright, refreshing, and the perfect contrast to the ceviche. The Caramelo was another favorite. Carne asada, Oaxaca cheese, and salsa verde wrapped in one of those amazing tortillas. It's basically an elevated quesadilla, and I'd definitely order it again. For the main course, we shared the wood fired swordfish. It was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of char and served with salsa verde, rice, grilled onions, cabbage salad, and rajas con suero. Simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. I paired it all with the Carabuena Old Fashioned, and it was a great match for the meal. Service was great, the atmosphere was fun and every dish was exceptional, there wasn't a single miss. If you're in San Antonio, Mezquite is definitely worth checking out.

    Nachos with Carne Asada - the meat was seasoned beautifully
    Kristina R.

    We sat at the bar, service was quick and friendly. Food was delicious, they season their carne asada very well. It was restaurant week so we tried a couple items from that and everything was tasty. It's The Pearl so atmosphere is gentrified but you can come casual.

    The park was fantastic!  My favorite!
    Steve G.

    Amazing! Highest rating! Wonderful! Wow! We had the Norteño menu (chefs choice) and everything... EVERYTHING... was soooooo good! Complex, layered flavors. Simply excellent! We will be back soon.

    I had quite a fun time coming here. The shrimp ceviche was fantastic. Had spice and loved the tortilla chips. The tortillas came with this amazing, warm, sweet butter. The tres leches was great with a sweet and sour topping. There was also a hummus and roasted mushroom dip my coworkers said was their favorite. I ordered a melon Marga on the menu that was quite delicious. Overall, had a fantastic time. Would definitely come back here again. They may not have ac it gets a bit toasty inside .

    Viva Mexico & some of the other tequila and mezcals on the bar.
    Danielle A.

    Beautiful restaurant and bar with an incredible atmosphere. This place is truly a marvel, it feels like you're dining at a chic restaurant in Mexico City, tucked away inside Pullman Market. The appetizers, entrées, and desserts are all delicious, but my favorite part is the bar. It looks as though it was carved out of clay and serves some of the most impressive cocktails in the city. Their extensive selection of mezcals and tequilas stays true to the restaurant's authentic concept and commitment to quality. I always choose Viva Mexico Tequila as the base for my cocktails and trust that whatever the bartenders create will be exceptional. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply stopping in for a cocktail, this spot delivers. I highly recommend Mezquite to both locals and visitors to San Antonio.

    Barbacoa nachos

    The food was delicious and came out very quick! The atmosphere is very calming and pretty. The service was phenomenal. Extra shout out to our waiter, Jesús! He took the time to introduce himself and even shake our hands. For those who have not been here there is two separate dining areas and two separate menus for different experiences. We did the appetizer experience.

    Seasonal Sorbet
    Mariana M.

    I've always been curious of this restaurant each time that I visit the Pullman Market. Finally made reservations due to Culinaria's Restaurant Week. I will say this is a hidden gem! Probably a new favorite of mine! I ordered off the Restaurant Week Menu: Roasted Cauliflower, Pollo Asado, and Seasonal Fruit Sorbet. They served the starter with freshly made flour tortillas, the server informed me that they were made with beef tallow. I walked around the Pullman Market, I found them for sell near the bakery, the package stated they were made with pork and beef tallow. Either way, they were very tasty and light. As a Mexican myself, I truly enjoy my meal. Everything was delicious and service was excellent. The chef is from Sonora Mexico, the dishes are inspired by poverty meals he ate while growing up. I was greeted by 3 different employees who told me about the menu 3 different times. When my server finally greeted me, I told him I already knew the menu due to the first 3 people giving me the rundown of the restaurant menu lol I loved the vibe of the restaurant, it felt like an escape from reality. There are tons of real plants all over the restaurant and a lot of natural lighting! Overall, great experience, I will return to try their Norteño Menu and to bring friends and family!

    Thick tostadas with fresh salsa
    Hannah F.

    We did the Norteno Menu for $55 per person where the chef chooses for us. We got the Shrimp "Cocktail" ceviche (shrimp, fermented tomato, chili oil, avocado, cucumber) to start served with tostadas and fresh salsa verde, which was served generously in a squeeze bottle that stayed at the table. The tostadas were thick and crispy, just like you want your chips to be, especially good for scooping up the ceviche dish. I loved this interpretation of ceviche and the funky cocktail sauce flavors. I just found this review in my drafts from October 2025, and while I don't remember every course in detail to do it justice, I remember everything being so great. I remember that we were also really impressed by the frijoles rancheros with chorizo and chile ash! It was our favorite side. The service was excellent and we loved the dim lights and casual elegance. We will definitely return, hopefully soon!

    So good, we came back two days later! For food, we had the Papas Flautas which were amazing! It came with three large flautas, perfectly crisp. The we tried the nachos with carne asada and nachos with carnitas. We honestly liked these both pretty equally, so you can't go wrong. For drinks, we ordered a standard spicy margarita. This tasted such fresh and not too sweet. The vibes here are great in the bar area. The bar itself has a cool design and next to the market shopping area.

For her second drink, she told the bartender to surprise her. He gave her a look and asked more than once if she was sure she wanted him to surprise her. Instead of making her an actual cocktail, he poured her what seemed to be a straight, extremely bitter liqueur. The whole interaction felt sarcastic and like he was intentionally messing with her rather than trying to make her something she would enjoy. What bothered me most was the attitude behind it. We weren't being rude, demanding, or causing problems. We were there to have a good time and experience the whole "tell us what you like and we'll make you something" concept. I did call the number listed for the business afterward trying to speak to someone about it. The person who answered said I had the wrong number and didn't know what I was talking about. I got angry during that call and said some things I shouldn't have, and I can admit that. But that doesn't change how disappointing the experience at the bar was. We expected a creative and welcoming experience and instead left feeling like my wife had been mocked. I hope management sees this and addresses it, because the concept of the place is great, but the way we were treated completely ruined it for us

We were seated right away, we chose the chef's table because we had already eaten dinner at home, but just wanted to go out for a stroll around the pearl and grab some dessert. We ordered the lemon blueberry Panna cotta and not only is it delicious but it's also beautiful! It looks like a work of art. I ordered one of their craft beers and we got some french fries on the side just to offset the sweet. Definitely a great dessert if you are not wanting something too sweet or two filling. It has been over 10 years since I have been here to eat, but being there reminded me how much I loved the last meal I had here so I am eager to go back for lunch or dinner!

We also had the snapper throats and loved them. The aioli was a great sauce with them. I had the gulf catch of the day, which was grouper, and it was so good. Great seasoning, perfectly flaky and moist, a nice crust on the outside. With that we had some jalapeno corn bread which was also delicious. Not too dry at all. I was hoping for it to be spicy but it was not. For dessert, I gad panna cotta and it was a great ending. Not too sweet, but the berries made up for that. The lavender meringue bites had a great crunch. Our server (Maya) was excellent. She was so friendly and helpful. Finally, the decor is unmatched anywhere. It used to be a brewery and they kept the old pipes and valves, which look very cool. It has a great vibe. I highly recommend. Without the need to, I'll mention anyway that it's not cheap. But it's worth it.

    We visited on a Friday 7/31/2026 evening, arriving around 6:45pm.  Our party started with six…read moreguests and eventually grew to 13 by the end of the night.  The restaurant wasn't very busy when we arrived, and the atmosphere was pleasant.  One positive experience was that the staff accommodated our request for an item that had been removed from the menu.  The manager went out of his way to have it prepared for us, and we truly appreciated that level of customer service.  The food it self was very good. Unfortunately, the service throughout the evening was disappointing.  I don't blame our waitress personally; it was obvious she was responsible for far too many tables.  As a result, we waited an extremely long time for drink refills, whether it was for beer, cocktails, water, or soda. When we requested buckets of beer, they often arrived after a 15 minute wait, and the beers were warm by the time we received them.   The delays became so frustrating that six people in our group left early.  We frequently had to ask the manager for basic items such as condiments, water, and utensils becuase our waitress simply couldn't keep up. Our final bill was $329.08, so we spent a significant amount of money at the restaurnt and expected a much better overall dining experience. To make matters worse, parking created another issue.  The first two hours were supposed to be free by entering the validation code from our receipt.  The code reduced the parking fee to $13, but my credit card was still charged the original amount instead of the discounted rate.  Overall, the food and the manager's willingness to help were the highlights of our visit.  However, the lack of adequate staffing, extremely slow service, and parking issue overshadowed the positives.  Saldly, becuase of this experience, we will most likely not be returning.
