Absolutely amazing Food. Came into eat on a Wednesday for Lunch. Had the chimichanga with beef.Great Amount of Food came with chips and salsa. Salsa was on the spicy side but very good. All and all great place to have a quick and good value lunch. A little on the small side but could help with a little more decor.

Birria Tacos
Update
Returned on a Tuesday
Price- very good value
Carne Asada tacos- fresh warm soft tortillas. Meat was small cubes perfectly seasoned but a little dry. Onions-very dry could not taste them. Cilantro- almost non-existent which was disappointing because I love cilantro
Peach margarita - Wow it was delicious but I would be hesitant to say for sure that there was actually any tequila in it. But considering it was so tasty, so cheap and I was driving I won't complain
Shrimp Jalapenos-Had these again because they were so good last time. Unfortunately they probably only had about 1/3 the cheese this time. They were still great just not compared to my previous visit
Service - still wonderful. So kind and quick that I think that alone may have made the food a little better
------------------------------------------------
Price - a little steep. I ordered by phone on a Tuesday not realizing what excellent deals they had available for Taco Tuesday so I wound up paying near double what I could have
The chicken taco salad left a little to be desired. Very wet and all the stuff that should have been cold was warm and vice versa But flavor was still good
Queso- just... is. Nothing stands out
Salsa -Same
BUT
Deep Fried shrimp stuffed jalapenos are out of this world fantastic. These and the wonderful service are the reasons I will be returning to try other things on the menu very soon.
As always I will continually update my review with each visit

Perfect. The grilled pineapple mezcalrita is worth every single cent and more. I would drive 200 miles to get this again. We’ll have to eat here every time we’re in Branson. The staff is friendly and care about authentic flavors and presentation. The atmosphere is cozy and well kept. I felt like I was in Mexico. I’ve been to restaurants in Mexico with less authentic tasting food.

Queso Dip
TL;DR: Try the Grilled Pineapple Margarita and the Birria Quesadilla.
We stopped in while in the area to visit some family. They specifically recommended this Mexican restaurant.
The menu is a tad limited in some aspects, but what is on offer sounded pretty good and they offer a variety of margaritas.
One of our party had a Grilled Pineapple Margarita that was very interesting when I got a taste. It's almost savory and smokey. Not my preference, but definitely worth a try.
The salsa was not spicy and a little flat in the flavor but by no means bland. The chips are the thicker variety served by some Mexican restaurants with any meal.
I ordered the Birria Quesadilla. If you've never had Birria, think of it as a tasty broth to dip your quesadilla/tacos in. They were on par with expectations, but nothing special aside from being a Birria Quesadilla.
My wife/daughter both had the Branson Plate (chicken) this was effectively the staple chicken cheese and rice dish. It was apparently delicious. My wife noted that there were no vegetables in the rice as opposed to the typical peas, and potatoes that sometimes are included in Mexican rice. My daughter's was the cheaper/smaller kids version of this plate.
Sodas and tea had an odd taste with it. I don't know if we are unexpectedly sick, there's a water quality issue, or what might cause that. It's an almost milky aftertaste.
The atmosphere left much to be desired, but the restaurant was clean and not too loud. Service was on par with expectations.

Mezcal is a great place to grab some even great food! The staff is super friendly, the birria tacos are filled to the top of that crispy shell! The Guiso Verde was super tender, and covered in a great tomatillo sauce. All around, a great experience!

Very good Fajitas! We ordered the chorizo fajitas. They came out very quickly with plenty of flavor.
We ordered the for 2 portion and there was plenty enough to go around.
I highly recommend trying them.
The only reason for a 4 star is that the water we ordered tasted like soap and after getting a replacement with us telling them about the soapy taste the next cup came out the same.
Definitely need to work on there rinsing process. But even with that being said I’d still go back in the future.

I gotta hand it to the ownership at Mezcal. They're kind. Their food is phenomenal. They offer some truly inspiring alcoholic drinks. Today, I brought friends with children and the atmosphere was smooth enough that the children weren't overstimulated, nor were they affixed to a giant TV.
I give the entirety of the business 5 stars, and also would like to say I'd love to see a few more personal flourishes on the walls, to up the visual appeal. The decor is standard, but hardly an issue, just of note.
I had a combo burrito with Ranchero and chili Verde sauce, and I submit that I'd ladle the verde into my mouth with nothing but a spoon. The entire burrito was delicious, as were the rice and beans.

Read all... Good tasted great, service was great. However, my order was wrong, my daughter ordered. Taco salad and I got chicken enchiladas with queso, when our order came to the table the salad had no meat, and my enchiladas had chili on them. They did fix the bill for me which was great and they did give us some free tacos to take home with all the fixings.
