This is a cute little restaurant in the heart of downtown La Mesa. It is very adorable inside. The food we ordered was nothing too special but decent and plentiful. Their carrot cake is yummy, iI think they add coconut to it. They have outdoor seating as well. We’ll definitely return here. Staff was friendly.

I’m honesty upset I have not tried this place sooner after living in La Mesa for over 3 years I only now tried this spot! The food is very tasty. I had the steak ranchero which the beef was very tender and you can taste the spices. The beans are creamy and delicious! The rice was also cooked wonderfully! The only thing I wished they had spicier salsa! But the salsa that comes with the chips is authentic and fresh, really good! This is my New Mexican spot in La Mesa

Don’t know how I missed this place for so long, but I’m super glad I was directed here by a friend.
There are so many Mexican restaurants here in San Diego it’s kinda daunting trying to find a really consistent place.
This was my third time visiting and most definitely will not be my last.
Personalized service from the owner, awesome food and Margaritas, nice atmosphere without sometimes overpowering decorations like a lot places have, just enough to be pleasing.
If I wanted overpowering, I’d go to Tijuana!
Nuff said. Go there. Pretty good chance you won’t be disappointed.
I’ve been eating Mexican food 60 years, from here to Texas.

I started going to Mario’s 40+ years ago. Knew Mario when he had the little kitchen on Center Street in La Mesa… then expanded to the old fishing tackle shop… and finally his move to La Mesa Blvd. Whether I picked up items on my way to a job site or being the ‘go to’ place for family & events… Mario’s has always been my favorite Mexican Restaurant! So many memories there!
Saturday Brunch in La Mesa – What a picture perfect day it is! So it’s off to the outside patio at Mario’s… Cheese Enchiladas, Fried Eggs & Bacon w/Refried Beans & Rice for me. Chorizo & Eggs Burrito w/Ranchero Sauce for Louise. Beautiful and delicious!

Tasty Mexican food! Nice quaint restaurant in La Mesa. Overall, good food. I’m not sure what their specialty is, but I enjoy their dishes each time I come. I had their tamale last time I came and liked it. Actually, their tamales are larger than others, so you may need to only order one. The venue is smaller, so it probably the max party size may be 6-8– but this adds to their charm. They have an outdoor patio, if that is your preference. Additionally, they just redecorated. Prices are fairly affordable. This place is worth checking out.

We can tell why this restaurant has been around and successful since the early 1980s. It is amazing. We have seen this spot several times when going through La mesa. We decided that today was the day to stop in. We are so happy we did. The atmosphere, even on a rainy day, was really welcoming and fun. The colorful decor and friendly service just made the experience even better. We tried a few different things today. The #15, which is a trio of tacos, had delicious meat cooked to perfection. 1 chicken, 1 carne asada, and 1 carnitas taco with rice and beans. Yes, please. We will get that again. The next plate was the carne asada burrito in chimichanga style. Yum!! I tried a mexican coffee that had hints of cinnamon and brown sugar in it. I was so happy with that but of hot goodness. We can’t wait to go back to try the chicken mole, chicken Colorado , enchiladas, and fajitas. We will see them again several times this year. You should check them out too!!

LOVE Mario’s!
Started off with Shrimp Cocktail which was excellent! The Mexican food here is fresh, vibrant and full of flavor! Chicken Fajitas and Chicken plate were excellent! Food and Service were spot on!
When we were leaving, we went through a Sobriety Checkpoint. The officer asked where we had came from, we told him Mario’s. He said, “I love Mario’s! My favorite is the Chili Colorado!” So, La Mesa PD loves Mario’s too! Great hidden jewel restaurant in the heart of La Mesa. Viva La Mario’s! 🙂

We had an amazing lunch at Mario’s in La Mesa. Standout dishes were the mixed fajitas that arrived piping hot and sizzling at the table and the vegetarian bean tostada. We also enjoyed the Pacifico beer. Definitely get the guacamole appetizer to enjoy with the free salsa and chips.
