This place is so great! I was nervous because I don t know much Spanish and the menu is in Spanish but the man who took our order was so kind and patient and speaks English fluently so he described all of their menu items to us and made us feel welcomed. We waited in our car and they brought it out quickly. The food was delicious.

The food is ok, it s pricey and the customer service is really bad. I understand they work all day and have a bunch of orders but so do we. We all have jobs and we don t come in with an attitude like they do. The guy who gave me my food just started to argue with me. I don t care if he he had a bad day, I had a bad day too. Not going there anymore.

The food is delicious, however, there s no dining in like before. This is so inconvenient for those that travel to Laredo and would not have a place to sit and dine. If you sat and dined the chips and salsa, we re complementary know they re not.

Great food! However, the owner of this place is really rude. Throughout the call she was rushing my order and hung up the phone as I was finishing my order. Miguel is the man delivering curbside orders behind the restaurant, really nice man. He made up for the bad experience.

The salsa at El Meson is one of a kind and starts your meal of right. Today I had the guisada de res with a side of fideo. This fideo is really good. Carne was tender and tasty. Exceptional meal. One very small observation/ complaint. Why are you served with plastic utensils? The plates, bowls, etc are not disposable, so why use disposable forks and spoons? Not only environmentally irresponsible, but it cheapens the experience. This isn t a fast food or taco truck. This meal is much better than to be eaten with plastic.

These types of places should be closed. Using the pandemic to get rich by just so doing takeout. Horrible. I know it costs a little extra to open the dining area but geez Just horrible

Very bad service from Mrs. Lili when answering calls from the restaurants customers. She is very rude and gets annoyed by questions about the dishes. They should have a person who has patience to be able to serve the customer and explain well what each dish contains. and it prompts you about what you want that day I bought 10 dishes this day, worse when I got home everything was wrong it didnt go as I ordered it please take this into account

I work in downtown Laredo and visitors always ask me for restaurants to go to...El Meson is the restaurant I ALWAYS recommend. It is unique and the prices are good and the food is great. Their aguas frescas hit the spot during the hot Laredo days. Be prepared to wait a little because they always have people... but the wait is worth it!

Terrifically original and traditional, the real deal, grandmas menu grandpa trying to take the credit, family restaurant that would look like an attempt to be hipster anywhere else but Laredo, it is not the only place to eat in this town, there are a couple of other stops, but by far the best. Good quality mexican food for reasonable prices, great service in a family friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend the pechuga rellena con jamón y queso. Highly recommend the chicken cordon blue.

We came from Dallas to Laredo to visit family. We were told that this place was great. The food is okay not all that! We were a table of 9 people. We all order our plates and we asked the gentleman if we could exchange some of the sides and he said yes. Well when we got the check it was ridiculously HIGH! They charged us for every exchange we did! Oh and just because I didnt want my sauce on top of my chicken the lady charged me $4! Every exchange was like $2!! almost $40 of charging for NO REASON! It was NEVER told to us that they would charge!! So I was REALLY UPSET! Not even here in Dallas do they do that! She wanted to tell me its like if I go to Chilis and I ask to change the bread for steak that they will charge me. Of course that would be a extra charge Meat and Bread are two different categories! So dumb! I even told the old man who is there (the owner I believe) like hey its not fair, and he didnt want to help! The cashier lady just wouldnt stop arguing! Even when I told her that I was done arguing, she kept going and going! I HATE IT! NEVER WILL I GO BACK! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE!!!

Spectacular food in an authentic location. Use your Google maps to find it as there is no sign. We are from New Mexico and accustomed to excellent salsas, enchiladas, etc , but el Meson was the best food we have eaten. That happened to us at 1 pm, so we took what was still available and loved it. Delicious. Best salsa ever.

Everything here is prepared with love and attention to detail, so you won t go wrong with your choosing. I personally recommend the chicken cordon blue plate with extra melted cheese on top and the poblano (non-hot pepper) soup! Enjoy!!!
