LT Mesquite Brew

My husband and I were excited to try this new small business, we love supporting small and local businesses! It's a neat setting, tucked off the highway in a more warehouse style building, small parking lot. As we entered there seemed to be plenty of family style seating and a couple of different rooms with more seating. We sat by the bar at a table that was for socializing and meeting new people. We were welcomed in and the service was very good, although a little slow, they seemed short staffed. My husband ordered a beer flight and said it was ok, he only really enjoyed one of the beers. I ordered a mint lemonade, it came 3/4 full and no ice (?), but it was good and refreshing. We were quite disappointed with the food, I ordered a pastrami sandwich and it was heavy on the sauerkraut and pickles and very light on the pastrami so it basically tasted like a sauerkraut sandwich. My husband ordered the brisket slider which had a funny taste, almost bitter, I did not care for it. The chocolate chip cookies were probably the best part of the food we ordered and even those had a funny texture but tasted good. Needless to say, although it was good service we will most likely not be returning. It did look like they may have live music but I do not know what the schedule was for that.

We have been here a few times and each time has been a mostly great experience! The beers are decent and the pizza is wonderful! Definitely give the Detroit style crust a try. YUM!!! It's so interesting how they haven't finished the interior. Despite this, it's quite a charming place! Although it would do nicely to hide the cluttered storage area upstairs. Maybe some curtains or something? It's a great family-friendly place and has so much potential to grow. The first time we came was around Christmas time and we had the wonderful treat of hearing Anthony Garcia for the first time. WOW! What a talented man! Each time he returns we make sure to book a reservation for a table. We have been three times now - each time to see Anthony Garcia. That leads me to our last visit this past weekend - I saw on Facebook that they were charging a cover now. Only $5.00, no biggie! For talent like Anthony Garcia that is more than reasonable. I called 2 days prior to make a table reservation and was told they would require a $25.00 deposit - also new! It was explained to me that this would go towards the tab - okay, also makes sense! The part I thought was strange is that they wouldn't give me any receipt or email or any sort of written verification that I put down a deposit. I girl I was speaking with told me her manager said that I could check my bank account and that would be my verification. Hmm. Just my two cents - but that was not helpful at all. I'm well aware I can check my bank account. If you are going to charge a deposit - make a plan for some sort of a receipt. Plain and simple. It's a measure of professionalism. Now for the last thing - while I was on the phone with the kind girl that kept asking her manager my questions - I decided to double check if there was really a cover charge for Saturday (since that was a new to me thing I saw on Facebook) the manager got on the phone and said NO there would be no cover charge. Okay cool! Well, this wasn't the case and when we explained this conversation to the lady at the register she unfortunately seemed very annoyed with us. How disappointing!!! I wasn't trying to get out of paying anything at all. I simply had asked all of these questions ahead of time and the staff was giving me conflicting information. I know owning a business must be so hard and stressful but getting everyone on the same page and providing a certain level of customer service is so important. It set the tone of the evening off on an awkward note, but thankfully once Anthony started playing it was a wonderful experience, as always. I recommend giving this place a try! Just be prepared - seems like they are still figuring things out and the staff may not all be on the same page.

For starters, the service was polite but very slow with limited servers, the place is very neat and beer drinking welcoming environment . The food could use a little more attention a the chocolate cookies were outstanding.

We visited on our way out to Garner State Park. The guy working was super nice. We split a flight of beer. We enjoyed the large selection they had, but didn't enjoy all of the beers we tried. We enjoyed the Mexican lager the most. We also ordered a pizza. It was good but it could have been improved by being a little warmer. We will definitely return if we are in the area.

We are so happy this place is close to home! Great beer, great pizza , great service and great live music! Our waiter went above and beyond. Kitchen was staff limited so they were only offering pizzas but they were generous enough to make my nephew ( who does not eat pizza) a sandwich. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended

The focaccia with olive oil was delicious. Beer was excellent. I recommend the Belgian Brown IPA. Service was friendly, but ambience was plain, like a warehouse setting. Also, thank goodness for GPS because the building is not marked at all - not even a sign.

This place is a family favorite. The customer service is great, & the owners are very down to earth friendly people. Pizza is awesome, but the club sandwich is hands down the best I've ever had! Very family friendly place, & even better when they have live music!

Great little place that opened up in castroville. The cashier was so sweet. Enjoyed sitting outside with my husband listening to live music.

Friendly service.Family friendly - rent board games for free. Animal friendly. Ample parking. Good food.Nice atmosphere. Indoor and out. Chickens that enjoy cheesy bread :)Worlds friendliest brewery cat.
