- JJamesDallas - Fort Worth •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoNot only is the food, ridiculously amazing, but the service was top-notch. The gentleman who brings all the plates to your table, takes his time to explain each one with such detail and enthusiasm for the quality of product.

- RRudySeattle / Eastern Washington •12 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWonderful gem in La Mesa. Several other options, but this is the place to be. Latin-fusion flavors and great atmosphere. We had the empanadas, jalapeno corn lasagna, and sweet potato bowl. A lot of great vegetarian and vegan options, didn't miss the meat (much). Could be great for a large gathering as well.More infoCasa GabrielaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• La Mesa•4.6

- MMicheleSan Diego •3 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 15, 2025Mario's has the best servers! The food was great. I loved my mole and we had churros and ice cream for dessert since it was Valentine's Day, but they had special chocolate dipped strawberries for the night too. The only thing about Marios - and it's a little thing - is that the lighting is super bright in the main dining area. We usually like to sit on a booth on the north side of the restaurant because of that or outside if the weather is nice. I wish there was less intensely bright lights in the big dining area. It's a little thing, but I think it would make a big difference.More infoMario's De La Mesa RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Mexican• La Mesa•4.6
