★★★★★ 5.0 David Speidel · Oct 2025

This is a great little restaurant in the neighborhood. Delicious food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere. I would love to come back during the summer for their patio.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jonathan Roberts · Jun 2024

Food is top notch. I don’t know how or why but this place had the best burger I’ve eaten all year and it’s not even an American restaurant. I don’t recommend the wings but I only tried one version of them. Everything else on the menu is above par. The Cheese and every dish containing cheese is phenomenal. Atmosphere is as good as it gets and being able to observe the kitchen out of the corner of your eye without needing to stare at it is cool. Service is good. Please note that every restaurant gets 5 stars for service unless something awful happens. I would give it a perfect 5 stars, but the prices are a little high, not egregiously high but high. And their hours are weird.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lara Dietrich · Feb 2026

Everything was fantastic, from the aroma when you first walk in the door to the last bite of dessert. Don't sleep on the wings or the rice and beans side. From there, any choice you make will be the right one. Everything is delicious! Thanks for a great meal and fabulous service!

★★★★☆ 4.0 T Galvin · Jan 2026

We were able to secure a somewhat spontaeneous reservation to LaMesa Sat. night. It did not disappoint. We had delicious Hibiscus spritzers, Bryn Mawr Burger, Mahi-Mahi Tacos and the Winter Salad special. All were very flavorful, delicious & freshly prepared. Service by Sadie was spot-on! And was very accommodating. The only reason we didn’t give it 5 stars in the “atmosphere” category was that the music was ever so slightly a bit loud. But that will not deter us from returning. We look forward to indulging in their mid-week date night and/or live music events.

Very delicious! Had the Mahi Mahi tacos, beans and rice and it was so good! Super fresh ingredients and so flavorful. Staff was friendly. Wasn't loud so we could have a nice conversation over dinner.
