The spot itself is unassuming: maybe ten booths and ten tables. By noon on a Monday, every booth and half the tables were taken. The place was busy! Service was excellent. I ordered off the lunch menu; my wife ordered off the dinner menu. We both demolished our plates. Wife had chili rellenos and I had beef enchiladas. We loved both plates. This will become a regular lunch spot for us. Really, really good.

We entered and no one says anything, lady came in after us waiting, shoving us to see if there is a list for waiting... like girl were the only two people in line. We got sat and the workers are very friendly, no problem there. Chips were good and came out crisp. I ordered the two taco plate. Taco shell was very stale, was very sad. The ground beef wasn't that good, chicken taco was better (surprisingly). Rice and beans were decent. Overall, didn't hate it here, but also not that great. There was a lot of people here and a lot of people waiting to be seated as well.

And the margaritas are strong and well priced, we have eaten at other mexican food establishments and they charge $18 for sweet lime-aid. We usually ask for Eric since he's our favorite! Table-side guacamole is a Yum, as anything with brisket. The beef fajitas are the most tender we have ever tasted. If you like spicy salsa, ask for the Verde salsa. Menas you make our tastebuds dance!!!

This was my second time visiting Mena's Grill, but my first time dining in and sitting at the bar…read more Customer service was excellent -- truly a 5 out of 5. The bartender was attentive, kind, and professional. The atmosphere felt welcoming, and you can tell they have loyal regulars, which always speaks well of a restaurant. The staff overall seemed consistent and friendly. Now for the food. I ordered the queso to start. The flavor was good, but it wasn't hot -- more lukewarm than fresh-out-the-kitchen warm. For my entrée, I had the skirt steak with beans, pico de gallo, enchilada, and rice. The flavors were solid, but again, the plate came out lukewarm. For a Tex-Mex spot, temperature really matters. I don't need it piping hot, but I do expect my food to feel freshly made and properly heated when it arrives. That was my only disappointment. I've ordered carryout before without issue, and because the service and vibe are strong, I will definitely be back to give it another try. I just hope next time the food comes out hot and fresh. Overall: great service, good flavors, strong local energy -- just room for improvement on food temperature.

I ordered the nachos with carne asada. They came on a huge platter with dollops of guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo in the middle. They use the same cheese as the queso in a bowl so it's more fluid which I LOVED! The carne asada was diced small and cooked to perfection...crispy outside and tender inside with not a bit of fat or gristle. They were so good I couldn't stop! I planned on taking half with me but ended up eating practically the whole platter. Their iced tea is freshly brewed and is also delicious. I'll be back soon to try some of their other dishes.

They take tender chicken enchiladas and generously blanket them in a rich, complex mole sauce that's prepared fresh each morning with the traditional ritual of toasting, grinding, and simmering spices, chiles, nuts, and chocolate. The result is a sauce that's bold yet balanced--savory and earthy with subtle sweetness, a gentle heat, and layers of depth that coat the soft corn tortillas and juicy shredded chicken beautifully. It's served alongside black beans (frijoles negros) and rice, creating a satisfying plate that's comforting and elevated at the same time. Many diners describe it as mouthwatering, excellent, and one of the best takes on chicken mole enchiladas around, with the sauce often stealing the show for its authenticity and flavor harmony. At around $20, it's a solid value for the quality and portion. The restaurant itself nails that perfect blend of modern Tex-Mex and authentic Mexican cuisine in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The space feels trendy yet welcoming--dim lighting at dinner for a cozy vibe or bright and airy during brunch--with friendly, attentive service that makes you feel like family. Reviewers consistently rave about how the staff is knowledgeable, helpful with suggestions, and genuinely happy to serve. Cocktails are a highlight (fresh, creative, and perfectly paired with the food), and the overall menu shines with other standouts like birria stacked enchiladas, tacos de camaron, short rib tacos, fajitas, and coastal-inspired dishes, but the mole enchiladas remain a classic favorite for those seeking traditional depth with a polished twist.

I don't have any one big complaint. It just doesn't really hit with me when I'm looking for this type of cuisine. We went for the cocktail program. It's pretty standard for what you pay nowadays. I'm short, this place is average at the price point. I can't think of a scenario where we would be coming back unless someone invited me for a birthday or something.

Updated review:…read more FOOD: had the Fernando Pasta, which was fettuccine, shrimp, capers, spinach in a buttery sauce. It was outstanding! I have been coming for years and it continues to be consistently good and first time to have pasta at a Mexican restaurant. Highly recommend! ATMOSPHERE: Still stays packed and is always busy. SERVICE: The service is usually the variable here; however, tonight was good. The waiter never told us his name, which is a pet peeve of mine but he was great.
