La Posta De Mesilla

The staff couldn’t have been more friendly. We brought our chocolate lab (traveling) and were seated in a beautiful patio with misters about as it was a bit hot. The food was incredible! We went with recommendations and tried the beef tacos and combo platter and both were excellent - truly authentic Mexican. Plus, so many margaritas to choose from. I enjoyed a prickly pear margarita as I don’t see that too often on menus. And, the best part? Dessert! The fried ice cream was the best I’ve had in 30 years. The tortilla it sat in made it! My husband and I ate the whole thing So good! I wish we lived nearer as this would be a regular restaurant for us. .

Everything about this place made it feel authentic. The atmosphere, the decor, the people, all made you feel that they aren’t trying to be “real” and just are. The food was amazing! The horchata was real and delicious. Drinks were ok. Enchilada plates were really good, a bit spicy but so good. Chips and cheese were delicious too! Service was great! I’d recommend this place every time!

The interior is very fancy but stylish. You can feel the history. The tacos and Hatch Chile lunch were satisfying. The portions and taste were both great, and the service was also gentle. I definitely recommend stopping by at least once.

For dessert e had the fried ice cream…it was both awesome and huge! Special shout out to our “hospitalitrix ” Valerie Marie…so careful and caring and loving!

One of the oldest Mexican restaurants located in Old Mesilla; The ambience authentic and eye catching. We were seated right away and chips and salsa were served almost immediately. My favorite menu items are the pasole and ceviche. The service is slow, and things we ordered were missed completely and had to be taken off our charges as we never received them, drink service was also very slow. However, we enjoyed our time and will return again.

I split the combo #1 with my wife & it was the perfect amount of food for both of us. We had the same favorite - the red chile con carne. Definitely get some tortillas, they aren't that expensive & don't come standard with the meal, plus they are big & taste great. Everything tasted very good, there were no complaints. Service was ok. We parked by the church, the walk was not far at all. Pricing was on par with other restaurants. We live in the PNW & wanted a good meal - the day before we were left disappointed with another restaurant because the food was just ok. My favorite LC restaurant unfortunately closed so we chose something that we knew would leave us satiated & La Posta delivered

Cute place, 1st time here, vibrant colors and cute little stores and birds in the lobby. Wasn't busy but food was slow to come out. I ordered 2 tacos and my husband ordered the enchiladas but it still took 30 minutes to come out. Also ordered sopapillas as like an appetizer but I won't order those again, they were super thin ankle crispy and lacked any flavor, I love the sopapillas at si senors so much better. I would come back again. Waitress and manager were super nice.
