I had an amazing experience at El Mezcal. The food came out hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. Every bite tasted like it was made with care and attention to detail. As someone who lives along the border with Mexico and is used to eating authentic Mexican food regularly, I can honestly say El Mezcal exceeded my expectations. The flavors were rich and traditional. It’s clear they take pride in their cooking, and it truly shows. I’ll definitely be coming back — highly recommended for anyone craving real Mexican food done right!

Been a while since had Mexican food & saw this place,I'm so glad I did! They were closing soon so got it to go & all I can say is delicious & not over priced. Esther who took my order was so sweet & very helpful with recommendation on desert, Flan which was yummy And they had my order ready in 15min. And a freebadded bonus a large bag of Tortilla chips with cup of salsa..I don't know to many restaurants you're Gouna go these day's & pay under 12 bucks for a complete meal made fresh! I'll definitely be eating there again

Birria tacos 10/10. I love that the tacos were still crispy and not super greasy. The flavors are incredible! I also love that they include chips and salsa as well as a spicy salsa and a green salsa with the meal. It’s a great price for the quality and amount of food you get. The hostess was a sweetheart as well. I went in to pick up my to go order and the restaurant was clean and welcoming.

Service is very quick with loving and friendly staff always around too refill drinks and chips. Staff also has amazing personality with each worker working not just for a paycheck but for the betterment of the restaurant. My family and I personally come atleast three to four times a month if not more and each trip we take we are pleasantly delighted and reminded why we love this place so much. The food portions are large for the cheap price it comes with not only is it large but also beyond delicious with every bite you take no matter what you pick on the vast menu you are greeted with quality ingredients and a flavorful experience like no other. Every-time you enter the restaurant you are greeted with great music and family like care. This restaurant far exceeds any other Mexican Restaurant in Roanoke and is very deserving of your visit.

I love Mexican foods of all kinds. The spicier the better. I also love new places. El Mezcal was a great find for quite a few reasons. 1. They clearly make their own salsa. It is delicious and with just enough heat. 2. The portions were way more than I expected but Yum! 3. We got a birthday cinnamon crispy thing with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle! 4. Great variety on the menu. 5. An extensive adult beverage menu as well. 6. Great, outdoor and indoor seating. 7. Very clean bathrooms. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a great lunch.!

It took a little while to be seated, but in there defense it was between lunch and dinner when I arrived. Once I was seated the service was great and the chips and salsa were good. I had the lunch fajitas Texanas which were full of flavor and more than enough to fill you up.
