Very sad looking servers. Did not bother to come and ask if we were doing good. Never cared to come and refill the drinking water. Food was also not good. My drink did not taste good - when I asked to change it server took it and brought back same thing as is withoutbchanging it and told me its new drink.

This place is so slept on and the vibes are immaculate!!! They show genuine care in the details and it is always worth it. Probably some of the best drinks in the city and the food options are actually delicious. The chicarron ribeye and the ribeye tacos go craaaazy. Its not like small pieces of steak but like someone actually cooked a ribeye and sliced it into tacos. Also server was Jose full of suggestions and good vibes. Very welcoming and me and my lady will 100000% be back.

We’ve lived in Brush Park for 6 months and finally ventured to Mezcal for dinner. We shouldn’t have waited so long! From the time we sat down, our server Nayeli Franco made us feel like part of the family there. Her drink and food recommendations were spot on, and everything we ordered was perfect. The Mezcal premium margarita is beautifully presented, a perfect mix and strong! We started with the “flight” of chips and dips, and had a variety of tacos as our meal. It was all delicious! Will be ordering our way through the menu to try it all. We were too full for dessert but will save room next time. Thank you, Nayeli! We’ll be back!!

We came for my mom's bday brunch yesterday and this was the PERFECT spot! The ambience was cute, colorful, clean, and quiet. The menu was great, my sister's got birria tacos, and a burger which they loved. Mom got keto tacos, the reason we came bc she's flourless delicious. I had the Mexican pasta with shrimp. It was fantastic! They offered a free bday shot or dessert and we went with the cake. It was such a cute festive surprise!! Coming back with the girl's sometime to try the interesting looking cocktails! Not busy at all, it's a place you can hang out awhile at... Can't recommend highly enough. Thanks for making her day! Note: Gratituity is included which we were happy to pay and then some. That girl deserved every penny and I wished it were busier for her sake. Also maps was VERY confused about where it was! I would search the shell gas station across from Savvy Sliders instead.
