Story

El Meson specializes in homemade regional interior Mexican food at reasonable prices. With offerings like Chicken in Mole Rojo or Mole Verde, slow cooked pork dishes of Conchinita Pibil and Chilorio, a traditional Northern-Style pork in a quajillo-ancho sauce, Cheese & Beef Relleno's, you realize this isn't your typical Mexican restaurant.

The menu has extensive appetizer selections including chip and salsa served with 2 salsas and escabeche, guacamole that is made to order, Salpicon de Yucatan, beef flautas, and a variety of tacos (carnitas, spinach, al pastor, and camerones al pastor). For desert you might try our homemade lime cheesecake, flan, or natilla, a vanilla-lemon custard with candied pepitas! Behind the bar you won't find simple syrup or sugar in the margaritas as we use tequila, agave nectar and lime juice.

Share these traditional flavors for your company gatherings & parties with our affordable catering! Please contact us for more information. We hope to see you soon!

Absolutely horrible service. I went here for the first time with some friends. We had a small table (3) and waited nearly 30 minutes for service. After getting a margarita, we had to physically flag down the waitress to get another one and some chips. It felt like we were just being ignored (the table right next to us was wiped down without even asking if we needed anything by the same waitress). The food was overall mediocre, while the chips and salsa were great. The service killed the experience and after an hour we just wanted the check so we could leave. Spend your time and money elsewhere.. there’s many other better Mexican restaurants around Austin.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I have been a fan since my first trip (and trying the mole sauce!) The margaritas are the real deal-fresh squeezed juice and a solid tequila selection. The staff is friendly and helpful, and willing to help you build your own margarita or Mexican martini. The food rivals Fonda san Miguel but at a price that doesn't set you back a paycheck. Seriously, check this place out.

We stopped in on a whim and found brunch underway, and what a nice surprise. The restaurant is very homestyle...nicely appointed, but it feels like it was decorated by the family and not a consultant. We liked that. There were lots of choices for brunch including a few nice vegetarian options, and several times of salad. We were only two adults, but there were a few families with children and they seemed to find plenty of options for their kids.

Mesón was great! We decided to stop and let traffic die down and had some of the best Mexican food we've had recently. The Mexican martini was pretty damn good too

I cannot overstate how damn good the food here is. I’m from Austin and have eaten at a million places, but El Meson is the hands down best interior spot. i usually come for dinner and it’s always incredible, but the brunch is the best brunch in Austin. The space is huge and gorgeous, the staff are sweet, and if I could afford it I would probably eat here twice a week forever.
