    I had the barbacoa burrito and it was good but portion was a bit too much for lunch. It was tasty but a bit more spice then I expected. The side I ordered were the potatoes with paprika. They were really nice. The spices were nice but because I thought the restaurant was more spanish than Mexican and Spanish cuisine typically has mild spices.
    Mesa Latin KitchenResponded on December 8, 2024
    Gracias Dorien! We appreciate the feedback and take it to heart. So glad you enjoyed your visit and hope we can unlock that 5th star on your next visit and guide you to some items that may suit you better. We have adjusted our menu to have more Mexican Options people were requesting, but hope we have kept it well rounded as well with some unique options.

    The house margaritas ordered were supposed to be made with Blanco Tequila, and I’m certain they were not! It tasted like they were made with Jose Cuervo. Disgusting ! The food was nothing special, and over priced.
    Mesa Latin KitchenResponded on December 8, 2024
    There is no Jose Cuervo on site, but our organic amber agave instead of simple syrup, Naranje Orange Liqueur instead of triple sec and fresh squeezed lime juice instead of a mix make our Margaritas popular with our guests and noted as some of the best around. But everyone has different preferences and we appreciate that. Thanks for giving us a try.

    Service was wonderful. Menu is great, with many choices. We had very good margaritas (house and Serrano), the good chips with 3 salsas is fun. I had a Mesa salad which was really good! Even the small was a good size. Enjoyed my fajita tacos with shrimp. Others had tacos, a burrito. Everyone enjoyed their food. Great spot!

    Ordered the brunch breakfast burrito which was way overpriced for what it was. Flavor was lacking and it wasn’t even smothered. Will probably not go back again.
    Mesa Latin KitchenResponded on November 13, 2024
    Hi Veronica we are sorry to hear that. We do have a mothered burrito on the menu but not our breakfast. But we would be happy to offer it smothered. And we can certainly evaluate the pricing on the breakfast burrito or maybe add a side to it.

    Better than what I was expecting! Because it’s located in the suburbs of Littleton, I honestly wasn’t expecting much. We decided to come here because we didn’t want to go far for date night. I was expecting basic Chili’s style “craft cocktails” but their cocktails were outstanding! Food was good and had good variety. Service was excellent! Vincent and Sebastian were amazing. Would definitely come back.
    Mesa Latin KitchenResponded on November 13, 2024
    Gracias Kimberly! We love Sebastian and Vincent and hope all our staff takes care of you the same. So glad we exceeded expectations and hope to serve you again sooner than later.
