Los Mezcales Mexican Bar & Grill

This restaurant was definitely not one of my favorite mexican places. Its ok, not great. My server was great, attentive and friendly. I got fajitas and there really wasnt much flavor to it. I had to request hot sauce. The meat was cut very small and was a bit dry. I asked for the veggies to be cooked well done and they looked to be just normally cooked. I got the Chorizo Queso, which was very good but not very big. It was plenty for one person but you might want a 2nd appetizer if sharing. The best part of the meal was my drink. I asked for a blueberry margarita and it was perfect. The drink was also very affordable at $8. Come for the drinks and apps.

We were so positively impressed with how clean, well-kept, and nicely decorated this restaurant was. Our waitress was super attentive, patient, in a great mood, and just made the overall experience wonderful. We even chatted with the other server before leaving who was also very nice. While they have lots of vegetarian options, it would be great if they offered vegetarian chilaquiles (no steak). Also, it is different compared to other Mexican restaurants that you get beans OR rice, not both, with your dish.

The restaurant has ample parking and a welcoming entrance. They have a patio available and plenty of indoor booths. There is a small bar area as well. The chips and salsa arrived as soon as we sat down. The salsa is very mild, but upon request you can get more spicy salsa. The Nachos Barbacoa has a really nice creamy texture and the meat tasted great. The taco salad was very tasty too.

Ordered veg enchilada and quesadilla. Steamed veggies with queso on it tasted bad. Spinach enchilada tasted very bland and uncooked. Rice was very salty. Service was slow because they were busy with a bday party. Will not go here again.

Our friendly server recommend we try their tacos al pastor because they were freshly made. At first bite, the meat was tender, mixed in the sauce were bits of pineapple. I was getting more island vibes as opposed to Mexican al pastor. Al pastor is not cooked in a sauce. It is marinated and cooked on a vertical rotisserie (trompo) with a piece of fresh pineapple added on the taco. The tacos were served with three sauces from mild to spicy, and they did not disappoint. Each is very flavorful. We also had the carnitas, and they did not have much flavor even though they were mixed with jalapeño peppers and onions (not traditional). Unfortunately, the rice and beans were lacking flavor. 🙃
