EXPERT TIPS
- The Tequila selection has only 100% Blue Agave tequilas. For Mesa Grill, it is not about having the biggest selection, but the finest. Signature margaritas include the Mesa Margarita, Prickly Pear Margarita and the White Peach Margarita. In addition, Mesa Grill serves the Partida Margarita, which is made with the simplest of ingredients; tequila, lime, agave nectar and water — no triple sec or sucrose of any kind — which results in an incredibly balanced and unique flavor.

Reviews
Much-hyped food TV star" Bobby Flay exports his "enjoyable" NYC Southwesterner to Caesars via this "top-quality" venue where the "spicy," "unusual" cooking is a perfect match for the "glitzy" decor, "nonrushed" service and "upbeat" scene; while a few "don’t understand the allure" of "eating in the middle of a casino" for most this is "real-deal" dining from a "can-do-no-wrong" chef.
Other than the famous chef that resides at Mesa Grill Restaurant Vegas, they have a few good qualities that you can really enjoy. Like, the food, the real reason you came. They have the know on all of the best tequilas in Mexico, apparently since Vegas is so close or something. But Mesa Grill Vegas has great cocktails, many of which are as creative as the food.
Bobby Flay's 8,800-square-foot Mesa Grill houses a 28-seat bar and lounge, a three-tiered dining room and a bustling exhibition kitchen. The signature blue corn pancake appetizer with barbecued duck and tiger shrimp with a roasted garlic-corn tamale and corn-cilantro sauce, served for lunch and dinner, is a fine example of Flay’s vibrant cuisine.
