Mezcal Taberna Mexicana

"Cool spot, bartender friendly, but food is pretty average and we ended up waiting a long time to get our order. One dinner came out so much later that others in my party had finished theirs already. Tried to get help with the check due to the delay and didn’t get it. I’m disappointed but not upset. Price isn’t bad and it’s got a nice atmosphere, but temper your expectations."

"The owner was hilarious. The food was delicious. I got the beef fajitas and my husband got the nacho supremos. I also got cheese dip with the chips. We both loved our food. The salsa was also amazing!"

"Maybe it was just a bad night, but very little went well: I sat at the bar and it took quite a while to get any attention from the wait staff; there was no actual bartender. When a waiter finally took my order, I had to tell him three times. Not all at once; he would leave and come back and ask again. Then, he made a drink that was not what I ordered. When I told him, it was not the right drink, I had to show him the recipe, on the menu. When the food came, it was good; no complaints there. That said, some guy sitting next to me had chips and salsa, but I never got any. I asked them if they had ordered them, and they said, “No, someone just brought them.” At 7:15 PM, a DJ started playing very loud dance club music. I didn’t mind the music, itself. It was just very loud and you couldn’t talk to anybody unless they were sitting directly next to you. It’s fine if you want to do that after the kitchen is closed, but everyone was still eating their dinner. I’m not saying all this to be rude. I just hope the management will see it and consider some changes/improvements. I believe my waiter is a hard worker. He just needs some help."

"We are outside on a beautiful evening. Our server was quick & made recommendations. The food was delicious, great sauces/salsas. Great cocktails too."

"I really enjoyed myself here and the food was great! I buy Mexican Street corn all the time in Chicago and decided to try theirs and I wasn't the same. Definitely feel like that appetizer needs to be revisited so customers can get that authentic taste. It was plated very well but that interfered with the authenticity of it. The drinks were GOOD! Burrito I ordered GOOD! Dessert GOOD!!! I will definitely come back and eat here!!!"
