Reviews for La Mesa in Massapequa, NY
The staff was very curt and rude when we entered. we waited an hour for our food. the lumpia was pretty good. The corn tortillas... were rubbery and tough. the al pastor tacos were terrible. the shrimp inside of the shrimp tacos were okay. the rice and beanswere very plain, beans seasoned with only salt. would not recommend. i definitely wasted my money here.

This place is a hidden gem and I feel more people need to know about it! It?s a fusion spot; Hispanic and Filipino. The food is... really delicious and the service is always so great! LOVE coming here. Ps..they also cater! Read more
The food here is incredible. They have the best tacos, burritos, pupusas on Long Island. They also have a hot bar with different... items featured daily. Pulled pork, meat balls, fried chicken, roasted chicken and so much more. All deliciously fresh andreasonably priced. You can choose your size plate starting at 10$. So your wondering why 4 stars? The help? most of them are outto lunch. I tried calling 2 weeks ago to place an order? the phone would ring once and stop. So here it is 2 weeks later wecalled again, same thing. So I went there asked if something was wrong with the phones. She said I don?t think so. So I calledwith my cell phone standing there?again one ring then cuts off. The girl is like ? ohhhh I?ll tell the owner?. So I ordered andhad to sit there 30 minutes to wait. It?s also very uncomfortable to sit and eat in there. Unless your 100 pounds or less yourbehind does not fit in the uncomfortable metal chairs. So do take out if they fix the phones, otherwise plan a nice long waitfor really great food. Read more
Every time I come to this place I am more and more disappointed by the customer service! Food is great! Staff is terrible! Today... they forgot my platano maduros and they tried to tell me they double check before packing. I took a photo back for them to seethe error. They also told me they would text me when my order was ready. So after and hour of not receiving their text I went tothe restaurant and sure enough my order was sitting their. I asked how long had it been there and they said it was sitting there20 min! Just awful service. BUT, the food is very good. Wish I could just deal with the cooks and forget the front end staff.

Delicious food!!! Pupusas just like they made them in the motherland. The baleadas though, ugh my mouth is watering just... thinking about them. I might have to pay them another visit Read more
Best Spanish food around. Easily. The pupusas are amazing and the random dishes they cook everyday are all good. The pernil,... salmon bites, brisket, lemongrass chicken, chicken adobo, pollo frita and the list goes on. What they make is pretty random butI?ve always found something amazing and they?ll some items fresh for ya. FINAL VERDICT: would absolutely recommend Read more
This is a great little place! Food was great. The staff was friendly. Even the setup inside the restaurant was quaint. The Carne... Asada platter was delicious. Won't hesitate to come here again if in the area! Read more
It took over an hour to get food 1/10 service.. We also were not greeted - 0/10 for the Hawaiiano bowl it was supposed to come... with a fried egg and maduros. I DID NOT receive them - There was no flavor on the grilled chicken didn't even taste like saltwas on it? And the rice was also not even salted at the least - The beef empanada with green sauce was 7/10 To be told to wait35 mins and end up waiting an hour and receive food that has 0 flavor ????? Read more
