When hunger strikes, head to El Meson. The menu is great, so much to choose from. Chips are an appetizer, make sure to eat them with queso(cheese). The enchiladas are made for perfection! The smell fills the air at the table and it looks so appetizing! Then the first bite hits you, and a smile instantaneously arrives. This food never has been a let down. The staff is super friendly, greeting you right when you walk in the door. Cant ask for a better time. Birthday celebration here is a real treat! You wear a sombrero and they sing a birthday song. El Meson is a truly heartwarming place. When the dinner is over, you can get a desert. The deserts are really good. There is cinnamon chips, and also ice cream and other ones. It is in a wonderful, spectacular area! 10/10 Highly recommend.

This mexican food is worth driving across town for! Good quality meat and ingredients as well as their salsa, Exceptional taste! The fajita yucatan is so good i never order anything else. El meson is the best mexican ive had and ive eaten at around 20 different mexican restaurants in about 7 different states. If your looking for good mexican food, go here, Im sure you would go back at the least, and it will probably end up being your favorite mexican food that youve ever had. Weve eaten here almost 10 times now in the last month and a half I dont think we will even try another Mexican restaurant as long as we are living here in akron. My wife also had tried the Chicken Burrito with their heated cheese sauce and says its flavor is out of this world.

Absolutely the best Mexican restaurant in this area. Jims Nachos with extra meat and cheese are my personal favorite item. My wife likes the margaritas. I suggest this place to every one I know. Only negative about this place is its small waiting area. They are great about keeping up with wait times but the entryway is small and people have to jockey whenever someone needs to leave after paying. If you want to visit during a prime time keep that in mind. It is worth every second of the wait though.

I was not impressed with this restaurant. The reviews were all really good- however the food was average at best. I had a standard meal of a quesadilla, burrito and chalupa. Nothing stood out. The chips did not seem home made, just warmed up. And the salsa was spicy but not very good otherwise. The interior was dated and not welcoming. Also- there were still cinco de mayo decorations up... in August. Will not be returning.

Nice staff, it seems as though every Mexican restaurant near Akron purchases the same "steak" to serve in their burritos, and its not very good. The refried beans were the best Ive had so far. I would go back to try something else, maybe chicken, or al pastor. And the Dr. Pepper didnt really taste like it should, which I find at most restaurants that have fountain drinks, the Pepsi was more like the real stuff.

In my opinion, El Meson (formerly El Rincon) is the best Mexican Restaurant in the Cuyahoga Falls area. My family and I have tried other authentic Mexican Restaurants that just arent quite as good as El Meson. The food is tasty, the food comes out to you in record time and the cost is very good. Using the Entertainment book coupon helps cut the cost in half. Keep up the good work, El Meson! YUM!

I love the food here normally but the service or lack of service I received on my visit today was horrible. The only time we saw our waiter was to take our order then when we complained at the end of our meal to another waiter. On top of the fact that I found hair in my food and had the rudest response to my complaint to the waiter. Unfortunately I dont believe I will ever go here again. Sad

Ive been to a good number of the Mexican restaurants in the area and this one is by far the best! The food is delicious, its reasonably price and I feel as though I am eating a home cooked Mexican meal! Plus there is 50% off Full and Half Margarita pitchers (lime only) on Wednesday! My friends and I are there almost every Wednesday! You cant go wrong with El Meson!

This is my favorite spot in north east Ohio. Id go here everyday if I could!! They have by far the most quality Mexican food Ive ever had, theyre so fast, and everyone is so nice! I bring everyone I know here and they all love it. I hope they can cater my wedding and every life event I have. This place is my favorite Mexican restaurant ever

The staff is friendly and the food is cheap. The food isnt bad, but its nothing to go out of your way for. The place is kind of a dump and the seating is awkward and crammed together. If you just want to have a cheap dinner this isnt bad. But there are plenty of other alternatives that have a better atmosphere in the same price range.

Really great Mexican food. Good prices. Dont miss this place if youre looking for Mexican in the Akron area. It changed its name to El Meson recently but its the same restaurant. Portions are really big - too big actually. I get the fajitas and I dont think anyone could eat all that. My wife likes the chimichanga.

Been coming here since 2005 and if people who give this place any less than 5 stars would pay attention to the Akron Beacon Journal reviews they would see that elmeson ranks number 1 in best Mexican restaurant every year. Love the food the drink and most of all the loving staff. We are always treated like family.

I used to really like eating there (despite the grungy interior). The food and portions are good; however, last time I ate here I got about halfway through my meal before noticing there were about 8 (visible) fruit flies stuck to the ice in my drink. Lost my appetite after that. Havent been back.

Tried this place based on the reviews. It is not a 4.5 star restaurant, though. Margarita was decent, other than that, it all went down hill. Food was nothing to write home about, bland at best. Even the queso dip didnt really have any flavor. Definitely not going to be going back.

We stopped from out of town....Ive NEVER had such AMAZING Mexican food. Our waiter was cute and fast, food was spectacular and the Mexican vibe was excellent. I will be stopping back on my way thru town again, I highly recommend to anyone that likes GREAT Mexican food :)

The food was decent, but needed a bit more spice. I had the Chori Pollo and was expecting a bit more flavor from the chorizo. Chips and salsa were great tho. It was pretty busy when we went and the service was really slow. But I will come back and try it again.

They give you a lot of food! Its delicious but I usually leave feeling too full. The servers have always been pleasant. The host/ess has been short/rude on a few occasions. It seems like theyre usually flustered. But thats never been enough to ruin my experience.
