Had a great lunch here, ordered the fajitas and they didn’t disappoint (although would have like some peppers, they only served sizzling onions). The frozen margaritas were delicious but strong

This place has the real McCoy!! The real, authentic Mexican touch that you wouldn’t know it’s coming from you abuelita or what!! It’s so hard to find real Mexican seasoning!! I’m not talking Tex-Mex… I’m talking about the original way, flavors and authentic Mexican cuisine. The deserts… are unlike no other places unless you are back in Mexico. Always a smile on all the employees!! What a refreshing way to dine.

Great Mexican food! Went here for the guacamole as I read good reviews. The guac was good but I really enjoyed the tacos. The French toast was on point. I appreciate using croissants rather than regular white toast.

OMG brunch buffet and great drinks. Service is awesome. This is the real deal! I’m shocked that no line for this amazing brunch game. It’s 28pp including tip added automatically. The food is so fresh. Families run. Going for dinner tonight.

A South Lamar staple that should never go away. Real. Authentic. Mexican. Cuisine. None of that Tex Mex stuff here. Family owned and delicious

Finally decided to give this place a shot after driving by it for four years. All in all, I found our dinner to be above average. I was curious about their ceviche but learned it is made from tilapia, so that wasn’t going to happen. They use it for their Veracruz fish dish as well; I’d much rather see snapper but that’s just me.

The Sunday brunch at El Mesón is simply mind blowing.
