Mesa Maguey

Incredible Mezcal collection! impeccably balance cocktails.The food is delicious.. Highly recommend the mole..

I had this restaurant bookmarked for some time and I finally made it here !!I really, REALLY wanted to like this place but ummmm It's a no for me Mainly cus the drinks were not too good and the service was super slow Inside is nicely decorated They have happy hour There is a full bar A back room with more seating Parking is street parking only and kind of hard to come by Menu has lots of options Drinks have a cute name Iykyk Food was good My friends did not complain about the food Quality is good Price is good and ingredients are fresh It's the service and the drinks TBH NO ONE WANTS TO RETURN A DRINK so you just suck it up for the team Initially service was decent but as more patrons arrived the service was non existent We came to scout this venue for our upcoming Galentines event and we collectively agreed to pass

Came here for dinner as a party of 4 on a Saturday night: truly a great experience. The place had a wonderful atmosphere and really nice and welcoming service! There was no wait- and the food was extremely delicious. We started with the guacamole plate, and we finished it incredibly quickly, a testament to how great it was. I ordered the two taco plate, one with the beef barbacoa and one with the pork carnitas. The carnitas were delicious, but the barbacoa was definitely my favorite. It was incredibly flavorful and topped with delicious pickled onions. A friend of mine ordered the Plato De Tasajo and raved about it- so I recommend that dish as well! Great place to try if you're looking for Mexican food in the area.

What a wonderful restaurant, they hit it out of the park on food and service. We sat at the bar and the bartender was so friendly and the drinks were amazing. We had the mezcalrita and the flor silvestra, both drinks were very well balanced and beautiful. For dinner we had the special which was the mole negro with pork ribs and the memelas. The mole was hands down the best I have ever had. It was so rich and the depth of flavor was incredible and they had a nice a nice hit of spice. The pork ribs were so tender and very meaty. The memelas are very similar to sopes but they are not quite as thick. I had them with barbacoa which was lovely, tender and rich in flavor. I felt the quality of their ingredients in the food and drinks was really good. We will definitely be returning and we are thrilled to have this establishment in our neighborhood. P.S. check out their happy hour Mondays thru Sunday 2:00pm-6:00pm

Probably my favorite Mexican food in the East Bay right now.Great service and great food. Habanero salsa is good. Happy Hour is where it's at. Tacos, Flautas, Nachos. Love the think crunchy tortilla on the tacos. I think the Nachos are probably the best deal. I did like carnitas on the tacos and chicken on the tacos.I would personally pass on the queso fundido. But everything else was so good it didn't matter.

We live nearby so I really wanted this place to be good AND IT WAS. Loved the happy hour menu. I got the carnitas happy hour tacos and a turmeric margarita and everything was sublime. My wife got a carne asada plate. The steak was perfect and I loved the rice. Didn't love the beans so much but I'm sure it's a personal preference thing. You might love them. I've heard great things about the watermelon margaritas but they were out of watermelon today. I look forward to trying one on my next visit. The service was friendly and efficient. This place is absolutely on our list. Great full bar if you just want to come in for drinks and a really inviting dining room as well. Just a fabulous dining option on a block that has several.

¡Hola Mesa Maguey! Thanks for coming out of the gate fast when I dropped by for a late lunch, which happened to fall during your happy hour. I usually won't give out five stars on my first date with a restaurant, but you earned it. $10 for two tacos and the Carnitas was slamming? Done!I'm completely impressed with the happy hour here, in part because they have an excellent selection of tequilas and mezcal. Here's the deal. Happy hour 2-6pm Mon-Sun $9-11 drinks $9-11 for apps like queso fundido, 3 flautas, or 2 tacos. The bartender, Leo, was really cool too. I had the house mezcal, Amateco, for the mezcalina and it was completely tasty. Lots of seating, all indoors. There's a space in the back too. Not much as change from the Copper Spoon. But there's definitely a really nice Mexican vibe now, and the salsa tunes were awesome, super-fun mix.

Happy hour options were A1! Great atmosphere with quality, authentic food and nice service.

Good food and good ambience. Service is spectacular. Would recommend to friends and family

Delicious and authentic food! The only micheladas I actually like The service is great and Leo is the best host. I've tried many nice Mezcales thanks to him. I love the experience with their good music too.
