Came here after I saw that it had tons of great reviews on google. We were here for the day from out-of-town and needed a yummy bite. The place was difficult to find given the construction. Now let me be clear that is NOT what earned them one star! The food did! The chicken dish I ordered was awful! The cream of mushroom sauce was terrible. The chicken tasted like it had been boiled rather than grilled for more flavor. The veggies were nuked to a wonderfully dehydrated nutritionless existence. BUT the staff is super sweet and very accommodating. The place IS quaint and charming. The prices are unreasonably high given what you get! I was very disappointed and wanted to like it but truth be told my dish was terrible to say the least.
Restaurant is under removal now but the food and customers service is always pleasant and professional everytime I I visit I make my way please continue to support ur local Restaurant so many are closing down permanently again congratulations on ur reconstruction
Customer service impecable, food delicious. On the flip side it got pricey, but for a special day of indulgence I guess is ok. If you are in Laredo and want to try something different, you might want to check this place out.
The salsa at El Meson is one of a kind and starts your meal of right. Today I had the guisada de res with a side of fideo. This fideo is really good. Carne was tender and tasty. Exceptional meal. One very small observation/ complaint. Why are you served with plastic utensils? The plates, bowls, etc are not disposable, so why use disposable forks and spoons? Not only environmentally irresponsible, but it cheapens the experience. This isn’t a fast food or taco truck. This meal is much better than to be eaten with plastic.
Amazing food and good service just the parking lot needs some improvements and also the menu selection and real utensils would definitely be nice specially for the Caldo de res.
