“ This is our first visit to the Villa Del Mar on North Mesa, and it was worth the trip! The service and food were great! The restaurant is comfortable, clean, and inviting. It brought back great memories of the many times my parents and grandparents would eat at the Juarez, Mexico location. Recommended! 5/5 ”
“ This restaurant is so outstanding, the service is impeccable, and the food is delicious!! it is somewhat deceiving because it doesn't appear to be luxurious, but if you're looking for just good food and ambience, this is the place to go. The specialty is basics, really good fish fillet, and really good shrimp cocktail. I would really is overwhelming for me is the service. The staff could not be nicer and would do anything to make certain that your visit is worthwhile. ”
“ The salsa was so yummy and totally a spicy treat. We ordered the whole fish with vegetables. It was super. Great food. Great value. Cute and clean setting. Friendly service. I will return! ”
“ After reading some of the recent reviews, we were apprehensive about Villa del Mar. However, we were pleasantly surprised . The food and the service was fine. I had the Fillet Tapaqueno and it was served with salad and soup. The fish was a generous portion with a flavorful topping along with an nice enchilada and beans. The guacamole was on the hot side which I like. While the atmosphere may be on the dated side, it was not dirty or run down. In fact they were sweeping up very dutifully even while we were there. Some places we go could learn from that. Passing by this place for decades, it was nice to finally try it and it was a pleasant experience. ”
“ Spring 2021 - Villa Del Mar on Mesa Street. Along the years I have had Villa del Mar. Their food is not top notch but I personally like them lots. They provide generous servings and real good costumer service. Also their cocktails are tasty. Yes, I agree the place looks ran down, and most of the waitresses/waiters don't speak much English, yes those are issues. So, thats why they get a 4 vs a 5 out of 5. I too have a nostalgic feeling about this place because many many years ago I use to eat at their restaurant in Juarez. I recommend that when you order .. think.. 1 order is plenty for two. So, one appetizer and one entree is plenty for two people. ”
