Mesa Grande Taqueria - Auburn (NY)

3 /5 Nicole Gabriel: Back in parking on the street in downtown Auburn. You can eat in or dine out. They have burritos, quesadillas and burrito bowls,salads, and some other things. You tell them what you want and they put it in your burrito or whatever it is you are ordering.They have a kids menu available. I ordered a burrito bowl and a kids quesadilla. We had a large side of queso with chips. Overall it was ok. Everything appeared fresh , the queso was really good it was a bit spicy which I liked.They also source local.

1 /5 Andrew Drourr: I have never been told “we don’t do that here” I’ve worked with the owner since it’s opened I don’t know if it’s switched owners, however the “manager” tried telling me 2 times they don’t do things they’ve been doing for me since open. I couldn’t get more than two types of meat, they couldn’t grill it which I was only offering because the girl rolling the burrito was struggling a little and I was trying to be nice. “Manager” had a poor attitude and couldn’t handle communication. I wasn’t gonna leave this review until she cut me off while explaining. The store only had my family in it not even a single other person at the time. She could have been patient enough to have a conversation. Just very rude. I’ve attached the pictures of my record holding order that I was told they don’t do anymore! No reason to be rude seeing I pay $30+ everytime I order.

1 /5 Anthony Michel: I would say the food is on par with Moe’s. Nothing spectacular about it. The burrito I had granted it was gigantic fell apart, wet and about three bites because none of the meat is drained just pour taste. Overall service inside was OK I guess.

5 /5 Nicole Tedesche: Parking is terrible you have to pay to park which I had no problem doing however the machines to pay to park did not work. They did not have any ground beef which is what I wanted. (Have been here one other time and the food and service was good this time was not) I settled for something I really did not want. The shredded beef instead had no flavor was dry would not recommend. I asked for a side of mild salsa and did not get any. I ordered chips and a large queso. Barely any chips in the bag, which I did not know until after I had left. Not one napkin was in the bag and the price for the quality is over priced over $22 for lunch is extremely expensive for lunch for one person I was excited to go back and after this I probably will not be back also it’s wild to me to just wrap a burrito in one thin piece of foil that barely fits on the burrito everyone working did not seem to want to be there let alone want to help me no prices are listed anywhere how do you know what you are paying for if no prices are listed I called to let them know all of this but an answering machine answers no one even bothers to answer the phone waste of $22, my gas and time (I don’t live in Auburn) I forgot to include my burrito was not grilled and the ingredients were not even hot I am highly shocked and disappointed bc the first time I went here the service was excellent and the food also was plus they were not out of anything the first time I went today they had no ground beef and I’m not sure what else they may have been out of felt like I was putting out the employees who were working there by me being there just placing a two item order
