Review by Trisha Will

September 12, 2024

El Meson Mexican Restaurant & Cantina brings back memories of delightful meals! 🌮 The tacos al pastor were simply perfect and bursting with flavor, while the Gigantic Burrito filled with shredded chicken was both hearty and delicious, topped with a creamy cheese sauce.

The ambiance is cozy and casual, ideal for groups or solo dining. Fast service made our visit enjoyable, though I noticed the lunch menu ends early - my only slight downside!

Overall, an excellent spot for great value and tasty comfort food. I’ll definitely be returning for more! 🎉
