Well as usual lunch time came around. It seems like it happens everyday and thank goodness it does, because I spend all morning looking forward to lunch. So after much discussion the wifey and me decided to do the Cajun Waltz to Mesquite Grill & Seafood. Now this site has been a number of restaurants, most notably Long John Silvers for a lot of years. However, over the last couple of years several restaurants have opened and closed here. So recently the Mesquite Grill & Seafood opened. Of course for your benefit we needed to try it. So here we go.
I ordered the Mesquite Burger (I think that is what it was called) and onion rings. The wifey ordered a piece of fish. Now she has a good taste for fish, so she was a good source for the fish here. The fish looked battered nicely and seem to be well fried. The wifey said it was OK, she would rather have Long John Silvers fish. Now I have to tell you that is not a high recommendation. She also said it was nowhere near as good as Doe Belly's, but nobody else's is either.
The burger was a good size burger, cooked thoroughly (Mitcho does not like seeing any red!!!) It came with all of the usual associates, lettuce, onion, pickles, etc. One point that Mitcho thinks is very important, this is a Mayo on the burger place. Now a true redneck doesn't want sissy Mayo, we want MUSTARD. Of course they were nice enough to substitute Mustard. However, there are plenty of hamburger places that serve Mustard burgers automatically. So minus a point for even thinking about Mayo. The burger was pretty good, no real complaints here. The onion rings were a good and tasty ring.
One point to consider, this is NOT fast food. When we ordered, we were told it would be 7 minutes before it would be ready.
Overall Mesquite Grill & Seafood gets a 6.5 here (of course that is after the Mayo deduction). If you are up in Mesquite at lunch time, this place is as good as any of the other possibilities.
