Taco Mesita

This is authentic fast service taqueria. Homemade tortillas are beautiful and moist. The margaritas are strongly and tasty. Ingredients are fresh, high quality and plentiful. Salsa is served with every taco, both types are fresh and well prepared. Guacamole is packed with flavor and no filler ingredients. Service was superb. Sitting outside is an added benefit. Overall one of our top 5 taco places!

Taco Mesita has some nice tasty tacos — we tried them all and they were very good ! Juicy, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. That said, the dining experience comes with a few bumps. It’s outdoor-only seating, which can get chilly depending on the weather. They do have heaters, but getting them started is hit or miss — a bit of a struggle if you're trying to stay warm. The biggest issue is the service model. There’s just one line for everything — ordering, paying, and even if you just want more salsa. We ran out halfway through our meal, waited 15 minutes just to get some, and by then, our food was cold. Honestly, a simple self-serve salsa station would fix this instantly. Overall, delicious tacos and worth a visit — but they really need to streamline their setup to match the quality of the food.

Super cute spot with elevated Mexican food but reasonable prices! A must try. I have had all of their tacos ans they are all unique and delicious. Pictured are their chilaquiles, made with two eggs and I added the steak. The chilaquiles are made with little square pieces of tortilla which somehow makes them so much better because they are bit sized. And their steak is so tender and seasoned perfectly! Their salsas are also on point!

Amazing!! The steak taco I had was so good I was upset when I got full and couldn't order more! 😭 Great spot for outdoor seating with plenty of shade thanks to umbrellas and trees. Friendly and fast service as well. And so so so good. 🤤 A little pricey for what I'd expect of a "old school" style taco place but absolutely worth it.

Oh yeah finally taco that feel fresh and serve more than just tacos! Love the sides of sauces that you can choose. Love the variety of menu! Hmm need more seating with shades!

These are destination tacos! Love the innovative concept of bringing high end Mexican food to a drive through, fast casual restaurant. The chicken tacos were well balanced and quite large. The steak burrito was very filling and you can really tell the difference in quality from the grass fed beef. The sauces they give are really tasty and bring the whole meal up another level. We also got the guac and churros, which were top class as well. We were so stuffed on the way home, but in a good way. Lovely owners and staff too; what a great addition to Tustin’s food scene!

Cute little place but not a lot of seating. Taco Tuesday was good. I enjoyed my margaritas and only $3! I had a fish taco which was good, but needs a double wrap of tortillas because mine was soggy and fell apart. The churros and chips/salsa/guacamole was also very yummy 😋

Amazing find during our quest of finding best tacos. We ordered all the tacos and tamale of the day, and each of them was so delicious. They hand made the tortillas from blue corns, you will immediately taste the difference with first bite. Meat was tender juicy and flavorful. Green sauce was legit. We also ordered churros at the end, easily one of the best we have had. Plus, the staff was so friendly! Would highly recommend this place to everyone!

love this place...tustin needed a place like this. got a good outdoor hipster vibe & so far everything has been amazing. even though the portions are smaller than most mexican places around here, it's worth the price & still reasonable for what it is. for those who have fallen in love with taco mesita...there's a secret menu with nachos, special burritos, quesadillas. google it. it's amazing. keep up the great work guys!

Enjoyable taco spot in Santa Ana that has healthier options and flavors. There is a limited amount of indoor seating and ample tables outside. They also provide blankets if you tend to get cold, which is much needed for anyone adapted to Southern California weather. The service is pretty quick and the tacos come out fresh and fast. Some of the flavors were missing depending on what you ordered but the salsa and tortilla chips. Definitely hit the spot. I would recommend if you want more of a sit outside type of vibe in Santa Ana. Otherwise, if you want something that packs of spicy or punch you might have to explore the taco scene a little more

Was basically robbed in the drive thru as they did not give me a taco. Tacos were ok but really pricey, even for taco tuesday.

I think I finally got my go-to order here = bean and cheese burrito and a woodfired steak taco. I love bean and cheese burritos from Taco Bell and I wanted to see what it tasted like here ... and it's yummy!!! The two sauces it comes with is also YUM, but I think I like the green one slightly better. Both are good though. Love the drive-thru and service is good.

I absolutely love this hidden gem. First off, I came at 7am and my server had the energy level of the Energizer Bunny. It was very contagious. Lots of energy from the employees who have huge smiles on their faces. The food is so good and fresh tasting. Burrito felt healthy and clean. I ordered the rotisserie chicken burrito and it came with cabbage, corn, cilantro, and cheese. It was so good I went back and ordered their morning $5.00 breakfast burrito that has egg, poblano peppers, potatoe and beans that were so creamy it was almost gravy. I am so excited to go back and try their tacos with homemade blue tortillas and their other offerings. This location is so convenient off of the 5 freeway. I can literally hop off the freeway, go through the drive thru and order a delicious burrito, jump back on the 5 and go my merry way. Casual. Inside and outside seating. Please come and creat your own adventure.

The blue corn tortillas are amazing here! Taco mesita is located near downtown Tustin. Shop is small with few seatings and a drive through lane. I got the chicken taco ($6) and my fiancé got the steak and pork taco ($7 and $5). Although $5-$7 seems expensive for one taco, size is generous. The chicken taco was tender and the charred corn gave it a nice crunch. My finances pork and steak taco was delicious. They also have salsa but not the best I've had. Overall service is friendly and a spectacular hole in a wall. Would love to try the breakfast burritos my next visit!

Came here on a Taco Tuesday late evening, they stay open lateee and have a drive through!! Casual place with only outdoor seating. There was parking readily available and not too long of a wait for the line to dine outside. Order at the front and go sit down, and they bring the food to you! I got a few things like the steak taco, fish taco, and the Birria. All were soooo good and reasonably priced. There were 2$ margs which looked fun! Tacos were all delish and the blue corn tortillas were hand made! I will be back.

The third branch to the Jaime owned Taco Mesa and Taco Rosa Mexican restaurants. They all use high quality ingredients, many organic with some good healthy, but still delicious options. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner and open 'til 10pm. Although breakfast is only available until 1pm. They also have a couple of dessert options. This one is the quickest service location with an outside order window and drive-thru. The main seating area is the patio, but there's also bar seating to the side within the roof. I love the music choice too, all indie rock with great guitar riffs. It's all smaller portions and snacks, so it's perfect if you want to try a few different items all at once, or just want something light. The Rotisserie Pollo Taco is what first caught my eye. It's made with thigh meat, corn cabbage relish, and queso fresco on organic blue corn tortilla served with a side of roasted salsa, and it was exactly what I wanted. The Pork Shoulder Taco with pineapple cactus relish is going to be on my next order, along with the Wood Fired Elote, and White Gold Horchata. Can't wait!

Pretty good spot for higher-quality drive thru tacos! I went for OC restaurant week and got the 2 taco combo which came with rice and beans for $16. I really appreciate that they have a drive through. I went around noon on a Friday and I only had to wait behind one car. I tried their fish tacos. The cod was meaty and the batter was good and not too greasy. The mango salsa on top balanced it well. Looked a little more flavorful than it was. The beans were tasty, just a little one-sided in flavor and salty. Would possibly come back to try their chips and salsa or churros if I'm in the area.

4++ I'm not sure about the history of this spot, but this place feels like it was a converted fast food place. Complete with drive-through. But because of that, it kinda has a laid-back vibe to it. You order from a window and they bring you the food. I came here specifically for the woodfired steak taco for a late lunch. Ordering was easy and the price was more than reasonable. I mean, seriously. I don't think you can beat this price for a quality steak taco with that char flavor with all the fixins served on a fresh blue corn tortilla. I would love to try other stuff on the menu so hopefully next time I'm in the area. But I definitely would love to come back for even just the steak taco itself. The parking was pretty simple to find in the lot or on the street around this area.

First time coming but it's been recommended by some of my friends. First off the service is wonderful! I came with my bf and the cashier gave us samples of the drinks and also helped with recommendations. All the drinks were so GOOOD! The horchata is what we ended up getting and it was a 10/10. We also grabbed the panela taquitos, wood fired steak tacos. Both were very tasty! They were generous with steak and toppings. Definitely worth the price. I only wish that they offered spicier salsas. Even though they had salsa macha for the steak tacos, it had absolutely no kick to it. It was still savory and delicious but no spice to it. It's definitely worth a try! The vibe here is great with all the palm trees surrounding it.

5 Stars - Exceeded Expectations! This taco spot definitely exceeded expectations! The flavors were bold, fresh, and full of authenticity. My brother and I were already talking about coming back before we even finished our tacos--that's how good it was. Simple setup, but the food speaks for itself. Don't sleep on this spot--it's the kind of place you remember and crave long after the last bite. Looking forward to coming back for sure!!

Taco Mesita is the fast-food version of Taco Mesa on Chapman Ave, which is the fast-casual version of Taco Rosa on Jamboree. The Calderon's have been busy! As seems to be the trend in Tustin, one defunct Mexican food place (Alberto's) has been replaced by a nicer one (Taco Mesita). The quality is top notch and it's unfair to even call this "fast food," but there is a drive-thru and food is prepared quickly. The menu is limited and not very vegan/vegetarian/pescatarian friendly, but there is something for most everyone. I had a steak taco and a pork taco. The steak was very high quality, but the pieces were large and I had a hard time taking a bite without completely eviscerating the taco. The pork was more manageable and equally tasty. At $12.50 for two tacos, it is not a cheap meal. I could be wrong, but I think the tacos are roughly the same price as Taco Mesa and Taco Rosa! I'm a big eater and would easily eat 4 tacos. This place wins for quality and convenience, but for the same price you can sit down at Taco Rosa and have a nice dining experience. If you wanted Taco Rosa quality, but don't want to leave your vehicle, this is your place.

OVERALL : A new gem we just discovered and are dying to go back to! Taco Mesita is a casual shop serving high quality Mexican food such as tacos, burritos, taquitos, elote, and even breakfast! They serve housemade everything and use high quality ingredients. I like that the prices are low and that it's a "fast-food" option, but so much more delicious. Def see myself coming here when I want a snack / small meal without breaking the bank! The ambiance is casual with an outdoor seating patio / ordering at the counter, but service was so friendly and helpful when we told them it was our first time. Def need to come back and try their happy hour! PARKING : This spot is located in Old Town Tustin, so parking can be limited. They do have a small parking lot though, and if you don't go during peak hours it won't be too hectic. They also have a drive thru which really helps if you don't want to worry about parking! FOOD/DRINKS : - Woodfire Steak Taco - 5 hr skirt steak cooked in puree of 5 chiles, finished on woodfire, topped with salsa macha, onion and cilantro - Al Pastor - 18 hr port shoulder finished on woodfire, cascabel adobo cactus, pineapple, tomato, red onion, cilantro Both tacos were delicious. The organic fresh made blue corn tortillas were excellent and the meats / sauces were all very flavorful! - Chips and Salsa - whipped jalapeño and smoky tomato salsas This was so yum! The portion was huge for only $3.25 and the chips were warm, fresh, and seasoned. The salsas were unique and def housemade! Jalapeño creamy sauce did have a kick to it. The smokiness in the tomato one made it my fav!

My son insisted we try this place for their late night happy hour. Margaritas were $2...and quite tasty with a mix of salt and tajin on the rim. We ordered all three types of tacos. The pork $3, chicken $4, steak $5. We also asked for both the red and green salsas. You get one with each taco. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The tacos were a pretty nice size, not like those little street tacos...but full sized tacos on blue corn tortillas. There were a variety of toppings on the tacos including cheese. I enjoyed all 3 tacos but would probably stick with the pork since it's the best price and just as good. I liked using a mix of both red and green salsas. None of them were very spicy for my taste. The salsas were quite thick with the green actually creamy. Heat lamps were available for outdoor nighttime seating. You can pour your own citrus water from their jug.

Never have I ever had a drive thru experience feel like a sit down restaurant experience. He was so kind, asked if this was my first time there, and then gave me the breakdown of how the food is prepared and recommendations to try. I was just coming for a quick bite, but then the dirty horchata was calling out to me. Definitely could use the caffeine boost. It was the perfect snack and drink to hold me over before dinner. The taquitos were yummy, that side slaw made it even better. And the dirty horchata...YUM. Would have liked a little more coffee, but that's just me. While waiting for my order I saw their holiday tamales menu. Coming back for a dozen (or so) they all sound delicious.

How does a review go from four stars to two stars? Read on. I liked this place a lot, but my recent visit was not good. I used the drive through with no one in front of me and no one behind me. Should have been quick, right? Nope. It took well over ten minutes from the time I paid until my order was handed to me at the drive through. It was borderline cold by the time I got it home. Today was a mistake I won't make again.

The concept of having both drive-thru and on-site dining is a nice touch, but unfortunately, this place won't be a return visit for me. I tried the wood-fired steak taco, and while unique, the flavor just didn't work in a taco, it was unpleasant enough that I couldn't finish it, leaving one and a half tacos uneaten. I also ordered the battered fish taco special, which was equally disappointing. The batter was soft, and the portion of fish was tiny. On a positive note, the chips and guacamole were enjoyable and the employee taking our order was friendly.

Taco Mesita part of the Taco Mesa/Taco Rosa family. It's the only location with a drive thru. Most of the seating is in a covered outside area and you order at the window. So it is kind of luxe fast food. But since it's all made from scratch it's not that fast. The menu is pretty unique and nothing is as you'd expect from a regular Mexican drive thru. Everything is a thought out combination of flavors. Today I went for the taquitos and quesadilla. The taquitos are filled with fresh panela cheese. They look like a cannoli. The cheese is light and fresh which contrasts the vegetables and salsa nicely. The quesadilla is a deep fried corn tortilla filled with stringy Oaxacan cheese and veggies. A similar side of salsa and pickled vegetables comes with it. This is a fun place to try different takes on items you think you are familiar with.

Cute little restaurant with mainly outdoor seating perched right by the sunshine. And along with the clean white stucco & orange color scheme, it feels very life full eating outside, like one of those old 50s burger drive ins. The food itself is super quality, and it's priced super well for a seed oil free joint. Almost a quarter to third cheaper compared to other seed oil free Mexican places I've been to, but retains the authenticity that I thought I could only find at a true hole in the wall. Those refried beans especially are something else. Along with the great deals they have in Tuesdays, late nights & early mornings, I'll definitely be back soon. Heck maybe even tomorrow lol.

Trendy little taco takeout! Been wanting to try out this spot for some time so we decided to drop by here on a Thursday evening. Fairly empty, as we were the only car in the drive thru. We opted for their steak taco burrito. It took awhile for the burrito to come out. We waited in the drive through for over 5 minutes even though we were the only car. Burrito came out piping out though with a side of their salsa. For $12, the burrito is smaller than my palm. I can definitely get a burrito 3x the size at any other taco spot. Nonetheless, the flavor of the steak was good. Definitely chewier than I had hoped, but its got a nice kick with the salsa. Not sure if I'll come back, maybe to try the HH tacos but the $12 steak burrito is too small and chewy for my liking.

I'm not much for eating fancy tacos, up until today street tacos were #1 in my heart. Taco mesita has me rethinking it. These tacos were amazing! The flavor in the steak was oh so good. Light smoke and super tender, the meat had some delicious flavors in that first bite. Also, that fresh made tortilla really made the taco. Just thinking about how good this was makes my mouth water. The salsas are so good too, I especially liked the jalapeño salsa. I was drowning my taco in it. I also ordered the Jamaica margarita, which I also loved. The Jamaica has a delicious deep hibiscus flavor that complimented the margarita. The cashiers were friendly and the food didn't take too long to come out. The outdoor seating was comfortable and was cool to have a casual lunch. I highly recommend eating here.

Tacos and burritos, slightly elevated using amazing ingredients, house salsa was noteworthy : fresh, tart, spicy, good. Service is cafe style - order, get your number, the goodies are brought out to you on trays, which you put back when you're done. Self service water, ice cold and clean, as are the premises in general. My burrito was around 13 bucks. For a sub $20 weekend lunch this place is a no brainer. 4 stars.

Tacos are amazing. The quality is there but food gets cold quick. Pineapple margaritas are a must have but we learned they are $2 after 9pm I believe.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon. We got a nopales taco, a fish taco, and chips & salsa. The food was just okay and the place seemed a little dysfunctional. The food also was brought out at different times, which can be understandable, but the place was dead and it took almost 10 min for them to bring out a second taco. By the time my friend and I ate it, mine was already cold. Also, they didn't bring out the salsa with the chips we had to go and ask after already waiting a long time for them. The place is set up to be a quick dine, but the actual place was extremely slow moving and the workers did not seem on the same page.

If you're expecting a typical or standard Mexican tacos and burritos, this is definitely not the place. It is very different. Sauce is different. No rice, beans and cilantro with your meats. Just take a look at my beef burrito photo. They are not bad, but it is very different. And the size is much smaller than other places, but once again, they don't include rice in your beef burrito. Just a warning.

Was about to drive away, but I'm sooooo happy I didn't! I pulled up and the sweetest person came thru the drive thru speaker asking if it was my first time there. I replied with a "Yes" and they recommended the tacos and burritos. I got 2 steak tacos and a chicken taco. I also got a side of beans. Total was around $23. I'd say the QUALITY AND QUANTITY on these tacos make it soooooo worth the price. The steak almost seems like it was marinated over night 100000/10. The chicken taco was so flavorful and different but I loved it 10/10. They give you 2 salsas. Both bomb. The beans I'd give an 8/10. There was a line by the time I got my food. Super cute outdoor area with umbrellas.

This place is so goated, i'm still at taco mesita waiting for my second order to come. Probably the best mexican spot in oc. andddd my taco just arrive. 10/10 i wish i could gatekeep.

Best taco that I have had in a long time!!! Tons of fresh ingredients and delicious salsa and avocado crema

Taco stand transformed into something from Palm Springs. Patio seating is pretty special. Wood fired grill produced fall off the bone meats for my duck, pollo and pastor tacos. Lucky for me, the duck taco was a special heldover from day prior. Best in the group, w/spring onions, pineapple and Asian inspired sauce on a flour tort. Counter and run out service girls were great.

I placed an order at 12:30pm with pick up scheduled for 12:45pm, came to the drive thru at the pick up time and said my name & order number at the machine, was told my order was ready and to drive up to the window. But when I got up to the window, no one was there. When someone finally came by 13 minutes later, they said my order wasn't ready. Then some time later, they realized they had already prepared my order and had just left it sitting on the counter this whole time. I got my order almost an hour after I had placed it, even though it wasn't busy at all, and there was only one customer at the storefront. When I left this review on another platform, the business accused me instead of "skipping the order box and heading straight to the window," "skipping every instruction," and being someone "who can't be bothered to follow basic steps" when I clearly wrote that I went to the order box first, said my online order number and name, and was told by THEIR employee it was ready and to drive up to the window to pick it up. If I had been told to park and come to the storefront instead, I would have happily done so. If they apologized and said their employee gave me the wrong instructions by mistake, I would have changed my review for them, but their lack of accountability and professionalism instead was dumbfounding to say the least. Do better Taco Mesita.

Don't sleep on their breakfast offerings! $3 for a high quality breakfast taco? C'mon! Sooooo delicious! I love their breakfast burrito, too, at $7; it's perfection. The service is always kind and welcoming. It's a cute little hideaway. They even provide blankets if you get cold. This is the spot, my favorite spot "...serving gourmet Mexican cuisine with housemade everything." Highly, highly recommend.

I love Taco Mesita. I always come with my friends during their happy hour which starts at 9pm til closing. My go to is their 18hr pork shoulder taco. Their margaritas are also super tasty and the happy hour price makes it even better. You can also choose between salt or tajin rim, or even half and half. The rim is also dipped in a sweet syrup which adds a great flavor to the margarita as well. Overall this place is awesome and you should check it out!

Female cashier does not know the menu and does not know how to listen to customers. Been here several times and she's clueless on how to take orders and work the cashier. Got my order wrong at least twice. There was a guy last year that was very good and knew the menu and how to work the register. I highly recommend the owners train their employees properly before putting them on staff. Also, the serving size decreased over the years.

Have heard great things about this place, so I figured I'd stop in and try one of their burritos. I ordered the woodfire steak one and was offered a side of red or green sauce. (Green is the spicier one incase you were wondering). The burrito itself was a decent size, but I was definitely blown away by the flavors of the steak. The steak does have a bit of a kick to it (which I like), but the meat itself is a bit chewy, but that's more of a personal preference. Ordering is done at the front through a window or you can also use their drive thru. There's plenty of open seating either at the counter or under a shaded area. It was pretty quick for the food to come out and there's a self serve water station. This place is located in Old Town Tustin and shares parking with many other shops. I'd probably just stick to their tacos for my next trip. I hear they have a great taco happy hour.

How do they run out of margaritas ? It's only 9:30. The happy hour is from 9-10 and it's taco Tuesday. The food is mediocre and I usually only come if it's happy hour to wash the food with margaritas. The steak taco has too much oil and it just drips. The table are grated so when you eat becareful because the sauce/oil can drip onto your pants. What a disappointing night.

Fantastic tacos, great tasting magarita, and the churros with the chocolate sauce were the right balance of crispy and soft. Great spot to eat!

Where else serves you a complimentary margarita because you're having a hard day? And a tasty margarita at that! Taco Mesita is a bit of an unknown gem. The food is yummy (I'm a huge fan of their frijoles). It's also one of the only places I have seen that serves arroz con pollo via drive-thru. Yes, they have a drive through, but it's not really fast food in the way ....say...McDonald's is. It's eon's better. I prefer eating there anyway. The ambience is chill, austere, yet inviting. They even have little blankets in a basket in case you get cold on their patio...which I think is sweet. Lastly, the food is well-priced. The menu is almost all under the $10 mark, and as a single mom, I appreciate this. I appreciate it as a person too. If you're wondering if you should try this spot... You should!

Great breakfast burrito with fried eggs and chorizo. One of the better breakfast burritos I've had. My husband had two birria tacos and a crispy cheese taquito--he's a chef and he said they were excellent. Seating is all outside, you order at a window, a little pricey but the quality was good. Recommend.

Excellent excellent excellent would recommend. Taco Mesita boasts a very creative, yet simple, menu. There are so many good options to choose from and I don't think you can go wrong. The food felt authentic, flavorful, and unique. Super enjoyed all three tacos, chips and salsa (so cheap for so many chips!), and a quesadilla dorado. All tacos come in their blue corn tortilla, which is an excellent pairing. Tacos come as wood fired steak, rotisserie pollo, and pork shoulder. Great toppings on all. Chips have really great spices/flavoring on them. Quesadilla dorado was our least favorite item, but still super good! Great little spot that looks super cool as well. Staff was friendly and they even have blankets if you're cold (since all seating is outdoors)! I would absolutely go again and want to try more items.

Great outdoor seating. Food was super good and original. Different take on Mexican flavors. Got the pork shoulder taco and elote

Just picked up Mother's Day breakfast burritos.. we love this place! The only thing is that I ordered a steak burrito and got the chorizo one.

Had to come here because they switched to Tallow. I was so excited!! And this place delivers, had a great meal. Got one of each of the tacos, chips, roasted tomato salsa and fresh guacamole. Shared it with a friend, tacos are filling. Everything was Fabulous! Steak, pork and chicken were all marinated and were so yummy. There was some kind of lemon marinated on the cucumbers and corn with the chicken...so good. Steak was very tender. Pork was yummy also. But I'd go back for that Rotisserie chicken taco. Chips are crispy, fresh and had a little seasoning on them. Great with the salsa and guacamole. Guacamole was fresh and great too. All in all I loved the whole thing. Can't wait to come again

Wowowow this place is GOOD. Expensive, but worth the quality. The handmade blue corn tortillas. The premium meats fire grilled to perfection. The salsas were addicting. The healthy tiger nut horchata?! Like what even is tiger nut but I'm always down for tasty healthy alternatives. It's in a small plaza near cream pan. It wasn't that busy when I came on a Friday night. It almost looks like it could be an in n out drive through. You can order online in advance. Or at their clear open window into the kitchen. There's no indoor seating, but a small patio space with a nice ambiance. Seems like a great spot to catch up with friends on a cool summer evening. don't come here looking for cheap street tacos not that those are bomb, this is just wow.

This place is awesome! I've eaten so many of their bean and cheese burritos, breakfast steak burritos, chilaquiles, barbacoa tacos, and steak tacos. They're efficient, fast, friendly, and super laidback. Not sure how that's possible when the quality of food is off the charts. I'll take it! Outdoor dining area is chill and they provide blankets/heaters for a comfortable vibe when it's cold. Wifey and I attended their tamale making demonstration/tasting over the weekend. Learned a lot, laughed, and drank a super healthy/tasty horchata (try it out)! Thank you Ivan, Niko, executive chef (forgot name), and the two ladies that run the show! You guys are awesome and I see continued blessings happening for all y'all.

Drove by this place earlier today for lunch. So I decided to check it out. I was short on time so it was nice to see that you guys have drive thru and can preorder. I had the Steak and Chicken Taco. WOW! Very flavorful. Both were. They're not your typical Carne Asada or Chicken Tacos. The twist with the ingredients added to change it up a bit, worked for me. Can't wait to go back and try the Al Pastor. Great work guys. I'll be back.

Fresh delicious high quality steak tacos. Cook to order. Cute outside patio for dining if you're in a hurry, there is a drive-through and they allow dogs on the patio really like this place. Can't wait to go back.

I was really excited to try Taco Mesita--my husband and I love Mexican food and were happy to find something nearby, especially since our usual go-to spot was closed. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to our expectations. The wood-fired steak taco was especially disappointing. The steak was dry, extremely chewy, and the flavor was overpowering in a way that even a generous helping of guacamole couldn't fix. I've eaten a lot of steak tacos over the years, and this was the first one I genuinely couldn't enjoy. 0/10. The pork shoulder taco was better, but I was hoping for more pineapple flavor--there was only one small piece in mine, and I didn't really get that sweet-savory balance I was looking for. 4/10 The pollo taco was the best of the three and definitely helped redeem the meal somewhat--I'd give it a 7/10. We also tried the steak burrito, which we found overly greasy. Sadly, we both ended up leaving our meals unfinished, which almost never happens. 0/101 On a positive note, the ambience and decor are beautiful, and it's clear they've put care into the atmosphere. Unfortunately, for us, that wasn't enough to outweigh the food experience. I really wanted to like this place, but based on this visit, I wouldn't go back or recommend it.
