    Worth the drive into Austin if you're living in the North Central Austin or Cedar Park area like we do. Authentic and the Sunday buffet will not dissapoint. Great place for the whole family and the food is delicious!

    I’m from El Paso, TX so I’ve grown up with very authentic Mexican food. I can honestly say this is the most delicious and authentic food I’ve had in Austin. We try to go every week. Meson has amazing staff and great service.

    Pretty good food. Go in knowing what kind of Mexican food you like though. The sauces are great, medium size portions, but filling. Service isnt the best, but atmosphere is good, kinda a family owned vibe going on.

    Priorities of this place, Money>Service. $4.25 a taco. $1.50 to-go charge for a small paper bag and 3 things of foil. You have to pay extra for salsa. You get 2 tiny slices of meat for all that money. Picture below. Straight up robbery. The 2 stars instead of 1 is because the lady that worked there was really nice.

    Great selection of food( some of the food was a bit colder than I like it) good atmosphere, quick seat time. Food was not bad but not take everybody here good either. The Bad -Not family friendly , I was charged 12.50 for my little girl who is not even 2. No changing table. - No posted sigh about gratuity being added to parties of 5 or larger of 20%. - No posted sigh of buffet cost. The experience would have been better had these cost been presented up front.
