The Art of Mesquite Wood Cooking 

How We Bring Authentic Flavor to Every Taco

At Mesquite, we pride ourselves on delivering the most authentic Mexican flavors to your plate. Our secret? The art of mesquite wood cooking. Unlike other Mexican restaurants, we use a custom-built mesquite grill that infuses every taco with a unique and smoky flavor you can smell from down the street. From our award-winning Street Tacos to our Big Quesadillas, Killer Burritos and Packed Bowls, every dish features the distinctive tangy flavor that only comes from cooking with mesquite.

What Makes Mesquite Wood Cooking Special?

Mesquite cooking wood has been a staple in Mexican cuisine for centuries, renowned for its ability to impart a rich, smoky flavor to meats and vegetables. Our mesquite grill is custom-built to maximize this unique taste, setting us apart from other Mexican places that might use gas or electric grills. 

Real Mesquite Wood Chips

We use only real mesquite wood chips, sourced from the best suppliers. These cut all-natural premium wood chips burn hotter and longer than other woods, providing a consistent, smoky flavor that enhances the natural taste of our fresh meats like chicken, steak and barbacoa. If you’re looking for the authentic mesquite wood flavor, we’ve got you covered with our 100% natural mesquite chunks, cooking all of our famous tacos, burritos, and quesadillas

Custom-Built Grill

Our grill is designed to evenly distribute heat and smoke, ensuring that every piece of meat is perfectly cooked and imbued with the distinctive mesquite flavor. The open flames allow for steakhouse-quality cooking, making our grill perfect for steak and other premium meats. The high heat rating and long-lasting coaling properties of mesquite provide the ideal grilling conditions.

The Flavor You Can Smell from Down the Street

One of the best parts of mesquite wood cooking is the aroma. As the kiln dried mesquite wood chips burn, they release a mouth-watering smell that wafts through the air. It’s this intoxicating aroma that often draws new customers into our taco shop. They follow their noses and discover the incredible taste that our regulars have come to love. The unique flavor and aroma can only be achieved through open flame grilling with mesquite – it’s the secret to our authentic street flavor.
