Casual but chic interior, friendly service, really good food with their own take on Sonoran cuisine. It’s loud when it gets full because of the modern acoustic - but it’s fun. Fantastic option before a concert at the Music Hall or event in the Convention Center, but don’t overlook it for just a nice bit easygoing dinner downtown any time. Ample parking on site - if there isn’t a huge public event on site.

Rave reviews, but reality was disappointing….preferred menu item was unavailable and food ordered arrived COLD. Shrimp in tacos resembled rubber. Save your money and high expectations…..go elsewhere!

We LOVED this place! Probably the best patio in Downtown Tucson! They also had a happy hour from 4pm-6pm, perfect for pregaming before a show at TCC or Fox!

My husband and I had an amazing time. We had dinner at the bar. The bartenders were great and very attentive. My husband had carne asada tacos and I had the El Mez burger. Both amazing and full of flavor. For drinks I had to try La Mala hora cocktail and he tried of couple of the LOCAL craft beers. Their beer selection is great with all local beers from different breweries in Tucson. Needless to say, we had a great time and the ladies at the bar made it even better.

We were looking for a Gluten-Free restaurant and found El Mezquite...I wasn't sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised - great GF taco's and genuinely friendly service - the location was good since we were exploring downtown Tucson, and this restaurant was connected to the tucson convention center and 2 blocks away from Fox Theatre. The craft cocktail menu was creative - a lotta local beer on draft but we ordered the heaven or hell margarita, I wish i know how to upload a photo because it was really pretty :) We'll be back.

We never received our food because the kitchen was so behind. Our waitress left and never handed off our table to another server. Multiple groups of people left after waiting over an hour just for appetizers. The drinks were fine and they didn’t charge us because the food never came. It was one of the worst dinning experiences I’ve ever had.
