Mesero is beyond Tex Mex, but lives up to its promise of Mexican Spirit American Life. One taste of the iconic Queso Mesero and brisket tacos will keep you coming back for more. The shrimp loaded ceviche is truly crave worthy. Be sure not to skip the amazing drink list, it's the best part!

    Cocktails cost as much as the entries. If you are going to have more than one Cocktail- expensive. If you don't drink- great value for an upscale restaurant. Overall, I will definitely return but get there before 6:00pm when Happy Hour ends.

    Basic Mexican that is ok but not great. Was disappointed as my brother in Dallas liked the location there. Asked what tortillas made in house and rhey said none were. Food very bland. With 6 Mexican spots in and around 12S, this doesn’t stand out at all. Skip. You’re not missing anything.

    The shrimp ceviche and the mango Brussels sprouts are a must! The atmosphere feels very upscale without the upscale price point. A really fun and different Tex-mex vibe for Nashville - will definitely be back.

    Server was friendly but you could tell she didn’t have the best support and was running in five different directions. Food was mediocre - dry, very luke warm temperature, chips were extremely greasy. Queso tasted like flour.

    Delicious food and margaritas! The bacon wrapped jalépenos were delicious! The Fried Rice was also super tasty! We cannot wait to eat there again!

    Took over 10 minutes to get drinks. When she finally brought the appetizers, the queso was cold. We love this place. They just need to get the service down.
