Mesita, which translates to “small table”, serves authentic, modern, Mexican cuisine in a vibrant atmosphere. The menu, created by Chef Antonio Chicas, features fresh guacamole prepared table-side, mouth-watering Mexican street corn, fire-grilled fajitas, along with burritos, tortas, tacos and many other house-made Mexican dishes. The combination of our traditional menu and playful décor with our rustic Mexican flair provides a dining experience that truly embodies the Mexican spirit. Mesita is the newest addition to the Rockville Centre restaurant scene and we are steps away from the LIRR.

We ordered nachos for apps, flavors were spot on. For entree we had the chicken enchiladas, that was good, too! All in all, was great food and service! Will definitely be back.

We waited over 30 minutes no one came to us I had to flag down a bus boy to ask for a waiter/waitress. After we ordered appetizers our waiter dropped salsa which splashed all over my jacket and my right side body I didn’t even notice it until I was about to go to the bathroom. Then we waited another 30 minutes or so to get our food we were so annoyed our reservation was at 8:15 we got there early like 7:45 and got seated we didn’t get our food until 9:30 horrible customers served. The entire time I had to ask the bus boy for the waiter its like he disappeared. Even to Get our check was a mission we couldn’t wait to leave horrible experience. The food was ok the waiter didn’t even get our order correct but we just left it because we waited so long as it is and we were so hungry.
