Welcome to La Mesa Mexican Restaurant

“ The food we had was delicious. We ate early (4pm) and when we first arrived I must admit I was a little hesitant. Only one server was working, whose name was PJ. But he was very nice and helpful and did an excellent job. The portions was very generous and the flavors were very authentic. Would definitely go back if I'm that way again. Recommend anyone to give this restaurant a try! ”

“ Just tried this new restaurant and am pleased to say that the food was very good and the service was excellent. They have some options that I haven't seen on most Mexican restaurant menus. My girlfriend had a Hawaiian chicken quesadilla, and it was large enough for two people. My husband said his chicken burrito was very good. I ordered the taquitos, and I'd never seen them prepared as they are in the picture. They were quite good. I liked that each person got their own dish for salsa. The interior is nicely done and appears clean. There seems to be plenty of parking. I recommend giving them a try. UPDATE: I've been a few times now, and service is generally good. I was disappointed today as they didn't get my order correct, and the cheese wasn't even melted inside my enchilada. Also, even though I didn't get the chicken I asked for in my taco, the ground beef was tasty. ”

“ The food was very tasty, the waiters were friendly, our food came out super fast and well prepared, the place was clean and comfortable, just the drinks. My husband ordered a long island and it tasted like juice, but we are happy with what we opted for. I recommend pollo con crema, it is very good ”

“ This is a very new restaurant, and I'm happy to hopefully leave the first review. First of all, the outside is quaint and does not overdo the signage. We were greeted immediately after entering the door. The decor was perfect. It provides for a great ambiance and cultural feel. The food is next. It was terrific. It arrived hot and had amazing flavor. I had the tacos al pastor, and they didn't disappoint. The spicy salsa was the best touch. So comparing to Mamasitas, I would visit here again soon. Mamasitas seems to have grown too quickly and has forgotten their base. The only reason for the less than 5 star review was the service. Our waitress seemed bothered, had little personality, and did not check back as expected. She captured the order incorrectly, and the owner came to the rescue. I understand the workforce is limited in Edenton and surrounding areas, but this should be corrected soon. If not, there will be more unhappy customers. I'm personally very excited to have an alternative to Mamasitas and hope the best for this restaurant. They must, however, correct the wait staff issue. If I were to visit again and had the same waitress, I would walk out. All the other wait staff were so personal and friendly. Sad there is 1 bad seed. ”

“ Everything my boyfriend and I had were flavor bombs! I love finding a restaurant that I don’t want to quit eating because the food is so good! I should have stopped two bites sooner but I couldn’t! Going back next weekend for my birthday! ”

“ Amazing food and selection. Excellent service. Love the atmosphere and I’ll be back here again. ”

“ Great place to Eat & have a Drink!!! Wait staff on Point!! Very Chill Restaurant. ”

“ La Mesa Mexican is a fantastic addition to Edenton's limited dining scene! Our group of four had a thoroughly enjoyable dinner last night. The food was excellent, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was vibrant. Even the leftovers held up well. Finding a quality restaurant open on Sundays in Edenton can be challenging, so we were especially happy to discover La Mesa Mexican. Highly recommend! ”
