I wish I could give it a 10! I love Mexican food, but having visited many regions of Mexico for work over the years, I KNOW good Mexican food. And although Red Mesa does still have small American twists to their food, it is GLORIOUS! The carnitas, shredded chicken and shredded beef were all mouth watering. The beans and rice are also very flavorful. We had the 3 enchilada and 3 taco meals. The meats are so well seasoned. The portion size are great. The food is fresh and the prices are on point for the quality of food. We live in Gaylord and have been going to a local (better than average) Mexican restaurant, but this is our new go-to by far. We plan to try the Red Mesa in Boyne as well. The ambiance is on point and the service was good. Be sure to try Red Mesa; your money will be well spent!

After years of saying “we should try that place”, tonight we took the plunge. Safe to say, now we’re chastising ourselves for not going sooner! 😂 The food was incredible and Leah was a fantastic server! The Coconut Mojito is one of the best I’ve ever had. We will definitely be back!

The food was great! Our service was horrific. Stephanie D. She was rude. Left us waiting for long periods before coming to the table, from start to finish. She was only decent when she sat down the check and told us to have a good night, shocker, she wanted one last chance for a decent tip. She charged us for something she told us about and didn't tell us it was extra- (a dipping sauce, like a smokey tomato type sauce) she was awful the entire experiance- including the end when she tried to balance 2 tables leaving at the same time, we stacked our plates and put at end, she took the other tables dirty dishes and stacked them on our table to take both stacks back together. So gross. They had the door propped open because it was such a beautiful day out, however we spent most the visit swatting flies off our food. That was definitely annoying and again, gross. But as a whole, will be back, hopefully w another server, food was very good! And good music was being played overhead too!

Stopped in for lunch. Service was excellent but the food was even better. We ordered enchiladas and chimichangas. My favorite was the Latin fusion Korean BBQ fajitas. Highly recommend 💚💯💯

Our server was Austin. He is the whole reason why I wanted to write a review. This man needs to get a raise, employee of the month, and something else. He provided the best service I have seen in a while. He made us feel welcomed and not a bother when we asked for things. He was informative when we asked him questions about things. Thank you for being such an inviting warm and welcoming restaurant to eat. I will add that the food was amazing too. Great flavor! Thank you for a wonderful experience, Red Mesa Grill!💛
