Reservations are not required at this restaurant, contrary to what some may think. The service was very good, extremely attentive. The setting is beautiful, especially if you dine outside. The wine list is brilliant. But, lets face it, the food stinks. The wine list has to be good to make you forget about the bland dishes you are eating. NO flavor. You can really taste the frozenness in the vegetables. Depending on what you order, the portions may be a little too generous, or not enough. My husband had the steak, which was shriveled and overdone, served with a jalapeno wrapped in bacon on the side(which is a little nasty if you think about it). I had the Chicken Cordon Bleu, which was a HUGE portion. I didn't want to finish, because it was so bad- but even if the food had been good I couldn't have eaten that much. I didn't want to eat dessert, the food made me that sick. The ambience of this restaurant is amazing, but it is a lackluster imitation of sophisticated dining. I have eaten burritos more sophisticated than this bland fare. No thank you, Mesa Street Grill.
Pros: Parking, Excellent Service, Wine
Cons: The Food!

this is the only restaurant where I feel I getting the most out of what I pay for, good quality, good food, good taste, a little pricy fresh ingredients, my favorite a good dine experience, which is not easy to find in el paso.
Pros: good food
Cons: maybe pricy if you order everything like i do but is worth expending good money

A group of 6 friends my wife, and myself (Couples night) went on a week night and had the best time. The service was outstanding and the wines were served perfectly. I didn't know that they had such a great list, also didn't know they won 2 awards for it. Maybe they need to get the word out better. The steaks are amazing, especialy the "in house" dry-aged, every bite was fantastic. Our service was impecable and the care and detail that went into every plate was perfect. We will be returning to Mesa Street Grill often, in fact we might break the different restuarant every week tradition. The one complaint I have is I wanted to be closer to the fire place, but we didn't know it was there and we made our reservation late. Check it out and make a reservation early. The best room in the house fills nightly along with the tempature controlled patio.
Pros: Wine List, decor, patio, steaks and seafood.
Cons: need reservations

We went here with another couple for lunch on a Sunday. Pulling into the parking lot, you couldn't even tell if they were open or not so one of us got out and tried the door first. The food wasn't anything super spectacular, but better than what you could find at most of the "pack em in, get em out" national chains. However, we thought the service was very slow, even for El Paso standards. Our water and tea glasses were empty more than once and we had to wait for the waitress to appear (we were the only ones seated in the "fireplace" room most of the time we were there). I'll go back for the food, but the service needs to be a little bit more attentive --- maybe I've just been spoiled with the Houston restaurant scene. Better "Opened/Closed" signage is needed.
Pros: Food is good
Cons: slow service
