Mesero is beyond Tex Mex, but lives up to its promise of Mexican Spirit American Life. One taste of the iconic Queso Mesero and brisket tacos will keep you coming back for more. The shrimp loaded ceviche is truly crave worthy. Be sure not to skip the amazing drink list, it’s the best part!

This place is amazing! From the momment we walked in the customer service was spectacular! Our server Dakota was great, he offered suggestions based on our likes. The sushi (escolar) was wonderful. The rolls (Tidal Wave, Thriller & Tataki Maki) were rolled perfectly and ingredients were fresh and went very well together. Will definitely return!

We had a super great time our server Chris was attentive but not overbearing, the park was awesome! The only thing we didn’t like was even though there are no smoking signs up people were smoking and vaping on the patio and no one on staff seemed to mind so we just got the check and left, I have a nicotine allergy I break out with hives when I’m around cigarette smoke specifically so it was a bummer. Our daughter loved the park and the pizza overall a good time!
