    The food was good and reasonable, service was fast and friendly. Quite big portion. We had El Meskal Special and Shrimp Fajita (Single).
    Tortilla chip and salsa were provided for free!

    Good Authentic Mex Food FAST

    I ordered the 4 enchiladas plate, topped with queso sauce and shredded lettuce and tomatoes, a side order of house hot sauce, guacamole, and queso. The salsa and chips were average, served with all orders. The enchillatas were good and I particularly liked the house hot sauce which you have to ask for. I used it on the main course and mixed into the salsa dip. The enchiladas could have stayed warmer if the plates were heated before the food was placed on it.  The guacamole was below average. The flan was exceptional.

    My family and I came to eat at el meskal for a late lunch. The food was absolutely delicious. It was hot and fresh. The service was phenomenal. They cater to you whether you speak English or Spanish. The horchata water was on point. Not too sweet, JUST RIGHT! The margaritas were so good. You couldn't event taste the tequila. You only felt it creep up on you lol. i highly recommend this restaurant.

    There are many different reviews for this Local Mexican restaurant but for me all the qualities for a good business added up. 1. Service: I was greeted with a smile throughout my whole stay. Food: The food was very good! I can't describe how tasteful it was because of how fast I ate it! Tortilla was correctly cooked. Nothing was cold. I do believe the salsa for the chips could use work but the food was awesome. Money: money does not seem to be an issue because the price was right! Very cozy environment tho it could use cleaning( it's food place!) Maybe it was not completely authentic it was completely Mexican. Thanks!
