I love Mezcal and eat there for lunch almost weekly. Their portions are large, service is fast and friendly, prices are super reasonable, and it's in a beautiful location on the 3rd floor looking over the Plaza and scenic hills in the distance. 5 stars from this very happy returning customer! Pics shown are their combo plate (taco & enchilada), fish tacos, and chicken flautas.
Food was delicious and margaritas tasty. Found the added flavor ones to be a bit too sweet for.my tastes but my husband's mezcal version was spot on. Sat outside which I think caused service to be rather slow but we weren't in a hurry to get anywhere so it was OK for us to wait.
Food is amazing! Pork for tamal was perfect, love the Suiza sauce, enchilada and chile relleno was soo good. Will definitely be back. Nothing tasted canned and spice was a lovely build up. Service is fine, hiring is hard in a tourist town-give em a break.
My quest for out-of-this world Mexican food in Ashland continues. I was hoping Mezcal would be a contender after making its triumphant return following a 3 year hiatus. I never got a chance to try the place the first go-around, so better late than never. The location has it all. Downtown spot amidst the friendly Ashland bustle. Third floor balcony seats with an amazing view of the valley—unbeatable when the weather is just right. We made reservations outside and it ended up being a gorgeous warm evening with a cool breeze. Drinks came out. I was stoked for a nice meal. The eats were ultimately lacking. The highlight of the meal was the chorizo queso dip for the chips. Aggressive flavor with diced peppers and seasoned chorizo in each bite. My main was the shrimp enchiladas which I think they forgot to season. Enchiladas tasted like plain tortillas, rice tasted like plain rice, and beans tasted like plain beans. It was missing the spice and flare of a good Mexican joint. The wet burrito was a notch better, so I think there could be some hidden gems on the extensive menu. Although I’ve noticed when a restaurant menu has several pages, it becomes too difficult to execute every option with finesse. 🚩 Overall in my mind the place falls in the “tourist restaurant” category. Probably good for people passing through who want a spot with a great view walking up from the plaza. I think if the restaurant wants to level-up and attract locals, they should simplify the menu to one page and focus on elevating the quality.
Best Mexican food in this valley hands down!!!! They treat you like family and have the nicest staff. Swing by on Taco Tuesday for loaded $2.50 tacos!! w/veggies! Where else can you find a deal like that? Ari and Chris will take care of you.
