The Mesa Grill

I am writing this review for the most recent service of 10 minutes ago. We sat down, I ordered eggs and ham and mom the eggs with toast and hash browns. 30 minutes with no food our waitress asks if we’re ready to order! SERIOUSLY!!! We tell her what we ordered. She brings my food, not mom’s. The eggs were inedibly over cooked. We walked out without paying.

I stayed at the hotel and I was hungry so I decided to try the restaurant. The server was really nice. I was feeling under the weather and she recommended soup. I ordered the tomato basil soup and a grilled chicken Caesar salad. Both where good and were fresh. The price was decent.

After being on the road for 8 hours we were exhausted and went to dinner at the grill since it was right next tour hotel. It should have been a red flag when we walked in and the entire place was empty, or when I asked our waitress for a wine list and she said «We have red or white». It should have especially been a sign to run when I ordered a Blue Cheese Burger and she asked what kind of cheese I wanted! Instead we stayed and ate a couple of burgers and went back to our room to try to get some rest. My son wasn’t feeling good within a few minutes and ended up throwing up a couple hours later and was sick all night. Not how we had planned to kick off our trip! Stay away from this place!!!

Classic American grill, we only had a breakfast here and it was good.

We tried this place out because we were staying at the Holiday Inn, and were getting tired of a lot of the fast food style places. The food was so-​so. You could tell the ice cream was overly frozen, as it was hard to spoon. My salad was ok, the ranch dressing was very thick and tasted funny. My dinner consisted of dried, overcooked veggies, and steak. The steak tasted alright, although it had a tad too much pepper used in the seasoning.

I would give the restaurant 5 stars for phenomenal service. Johnny was extremely helpful, attentive and friendly.
Now for the food… I’d give it two stars. As an appetizer we just ordered chips and salsa. I honestly couldn’t believe that the chef served us the last end of the chip bag! We had crumbs on our plate. The salsa was good and spicy though.
I ordered a cesar salad with grilled chicken because I wasn’t really in the mood for anything else. The romaine lettuce they used to make the salad was the last end of the romaine. I can’t believe the chef actually served the last end of the head of romaine. My husband ordered the fish and chips which were okay… it was quite obvious that it had been frozen. I could tell the waiter felt extremely bad because of the chef. Apparently the chef had only been in the kitchen for 3 days, still not a great excuse. I could have made a better salad at home!
