Mezcal Grill

Had a great time at this location. Ordered a grilled salmon dinner. Great food and service.

A party of six of us were looking for a place to eat this past Sunday. The place had been intending to go closed early, so we searched for a Mexican restaurant near us, and found Mezcal Grill. I am sure glad the other place was closed because the food here was on point. I enjoined the bowl of fish ceviche and a couple of crispy tacos. My wife had a nopal plate that came with rice & beans.

Sometimes it can be hard to find good ceviche. But the ceviche here was very tasty and authentic. The crispy tacos, one with carne asada and the other with ground beef, were both very good. The fresh red & green salsa's tasted really good with just the right amount of heat. They went well with the tacos.

The nopal plate my wife ordered was delicious. I know because she gave me a taste. Usually she doesn't eat everything, so I am able to enjoy some of her food, but this time she wiped it out. It was that good. She loved it.

I won't go into what those in the rest of our group ate, but they loved the food too. We ordered a couple of classic margaritas and a couple other mixed drinks as well. We all left happy.

I will say this. Since we moved up to a small town about an hour north of Sacramento from San Diego, we have been searching to find good places to eat in general, including Mexican food. So we visit Sacramento often in our search. We have found several places thus far, and yesterday we found a gem here at Mezcal Grill, and are already looking forward to our next visit.

I only have one regret. I didn't take any pictures to share. Sorry!

Thank you for the great food & friendly service!

Great authentic Mexican cuisine. I recommend the chili verde.

Nice outdoor patio as well.

Let me start by saying my friend unfortunately got sick so he's content on never returning....understandable So 1 Star taken away for his tummy debacle from his steak burrito.

While they were understaffed the evening we went the service was still overall good.

I love love love a good mole sauce and my mole enchiladas were delicious. And the drinks were not only refreshing but they were also strong and yummy to the taste. Also can't say no to complementary chips and dips. Whew one was spicy but equally tasty.

This place is located down the street from my place so u will definitely be checking it out again.

This place has become my favorite spot in Sacramento for Mexican food. They are consistent with good service and great food. The wait staff is always friendly and the drinks are tasty! (Order the BIG margarita). You can't go wrong with the enchiladas and taco combo! Bonus- their guacamole is delicious - fresh and chunky! Worth all the $$$

Wanted to find a New Mexican restaurant to try. This place did not disappoint!! And ordered chili verde , beer with Tajin on the rim yum, side of guacamole snd chips. My wife got a large blackberry margarita ( it's s big one) , and sopes. The device was great and the food options and drinks looked so good. We will be back to try more drinks and food.

The food made up for quality of service we got from the girl that initially sat us down.

Our actual server was very kind and attentive.

I had the molcajete de camarones and mezcal Michelada.

The molcajete de camaron was delicious. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the flavor was excellent!
The shrimp was also cleaned very well. Most restaurants get lazy and don't properly clean out their shrimp but Mezcal Grill didn't miss with this one.

The Mezcal Michelada was it was huge (32oz) and so good!

I will definitely be back to try more of their menu!

My husband and I checked out this place and really liked it. Their drinks are very refreshing and it was nice sitting outside in the patio on a hot day. The free chips and salsa were great and service was good too. Great ceviche and my husband also liked his fajitas.

Be careful with the margaritas. They taste great and go down easy.

Friday night was jumpin, but getting a seat was quick. Staff were friendly and helpful. The decor is bright and fresh.

We both had the enchilada taco plate. You get to pick the meat and sauce. If you like spicy you will be able to customize that. Rice and beans were seasoned well but mild.

This will be a regular stop.

Came in early Saturday afternoon.

TL;DR: Good food, great prices, good portions, good chips, great salsa. Go.

Got the mole chicken enchilada plate. They don't skimp on the meat. Nice portions for the price. Also got (2) street tacos. They were pretty good, (1) carnitas, (1) carne asada. Meat...meat...all the meat.

Got the horchata also, although I would've preferred it be water based vs milk based.

All in all, quick service, nice open seating (and outside seating). I saw a patron tree (you read that right), and it will be something I get on my next visit.
