About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Mesita, which translates to “small table”, serves authentic, modern, Mexican cuisine in a vibrant atmosphere. The menu, created by Chef Antonio Chicas, features fresh guacamole prepared table-side, mouth-watering Mexican street corn, fire-grilled fajitas, along with burritos, tortas, tacos and many other house-made Mexican dishes. The combination of our traditional menu and playful décor with our rustic Mexican flair provides a dining experience that truly embodies the Mexican spirit. Mesita is the newest addition to the Rockville Centre restaurant scene and we are steps away from the LIRR.

    The vibe is very nice and the food was delicious. However, our waiter needed to be called multiple times in order to get re-fills on our drinks.

    Luckily we made a reservation on a Wednesday for 8:00 bc the place was packed. Service was great. Constantly checking on us, filling chips & water as needed. The 3 of us were all extremely happy with our meals. Portions were big & needed to take home 1/2 the meal home. Beautiful restaurant As we exited every employee we passed said good night, thank you for coming Truly a great experience

    Overall, not bad. Food was good. Noise level was super loud to the point of being uncomfortable- should consider acoustical ceiling tiles. And the bathrooms? No Bueno. They should consider routine maintenance during service.
    Mesita - Rockville CentreResponded on July 1, 2025
    Hi Frank, thank you for the review. We appreciate the feedback. We take all reviews very seriously and will 100 percent take all of this into account, especially about the bathrooms. We hope this does not stop you from returning and we see you again soon.

    Mesita never dissapoints. Everything is delicious. The portions more than generous. I have two sons that have healthy appetites and there was still food to take home. The service was great and the drinks yummy.
