I'm giving a 4 star for the disappointment of doing away with the liquor license. In this town, as a local, you can get a beer or wine anywhere. To get a nice cocktail and good food, away from the crowds on Main is a rare treat that we thoroughly enjoyed weekly if not a couple times a week. Now, maybe a lunch place every now and then s then. Thanks Brandon, Kim, Marc and Cowboy for your great service. read more

Made the drive to Fredericksburg (from Austin) with some friends! We got lunch and each ordered an entree. I didn't want anything heavy so I got a salad. Surprisingly, it was loaded with toppings so it still became a full meal for me. In fact, all the dishes were filled with food and plated beautifully. The bbq platter was delicious and the pork fell off the bones. Yum! It's an interesting restaurant set up in a warehouse. read more

I hate to leave bad reviews, but our group's overall experience wasn't a good one. We booked a reservation during the MLK weekend for 6 people and were seated upon arrival. It was a bit confusing finding the entrance into the building. Our issues began once we started ordering. The beverages we ordered took quite a while to be delivered to us. We ordered 3 appetizers and one that we received was incorrect. By the time we received the correct 3rd appetizer (brisket queso), we had already started eating our entrees. A few of us were missing items from our entree orders, which took more time to receive our complete orders. Beyond our first round of cocktails, we weren't asked if we'd like anything further. As our night went along, our sever was less present with us. After being there for an unexpected 2 hours, we were ready to pay and leave, but sat around for at least 15-20 minutes waiting for someone to bring a check. We informed a different server how we'd like to split our check, but it was brought to us incorrectly. Once we expressed our concerns, the second server said he could no longer assist. We also had an issue with how the $10 per person reservation deposit was to be applied to the check. After much frustration, we gave up and had the check combined into one and paid the balance. Although there were several issues, I'd have expected a manager to be involved or at least comp the appetizer that was messed up. We never spoke with anyone other than 2 servers that weren't very helpful. Other tables seemed to have more of a pleasant experience, so I suppose we just had a misfortunate evening. Our server admitted that we suffered a bad experience and apologized, but that's about it. read more

I am so excited to see all of the restaurants opening in Fredericksburg giving visitors more options. I stopped in at Mesquite At The Warehouse because I saw it on the offline app. My food was delicious. I ordered shrimp and grits and it was some of the best I've had including in NOLA. Their food was delicious. The service was great as well and they make it easy offering reservations. The building itself is obviously a converted warehouse and offers a rustic feel with original wood floors and decor created from warehouse equipment creating a rustic environment. They even have a shop with items that convey with the warehouse feel. I recommend Mesquite At the Warehouse when visiting Fredericksburg for anyone who loves fresh gourmet food. read more

Really cool place, delicious food, super nice staff! Passing through on a road trip, showed up around 8:30pm on a fairly busy Saturday night without a reservation but they were able to take us with just a few minutes wait while they cleared a table. We just missed the big dinner rush and staff were still catching up, but were so apologetic about the wait, more than they needed to be. We were happy to enjoy our time choosing our dinner, people watching, and appreciating the minimally decorated but very pretty space. It was fairly cold inside, which makes sense since the building used to be a feed store so it was large and open, likely without much insulation from the winter chill, but it wasn't unbearable. Dress warmly and it's not a problem! Brandon was awesome and made sure we were well taken care of. We got the grapefruit lavender mocktail, which was pretty sweet but very enjoyable. For food we got a New York strip with side of broccolini and the red fish with fried okra, sweet corn sauce, corn, and farro. Everything was perfectly delicious! The pecan tart with dark chocolate, caramel and orange was a wonderful end to a great meal, decadent and perfect for sharing. Loved the inclusion of both fresh orange and candied orange peel! Definitely recommend this place and hope to be back next time we're in Fredericksburg or near San Antonio! read more

Probably one of my favourite restaurant in Fredericksburg!! This restaurant is an hour and half but the driving was worth it!! We found this restaurant from our offline app and got a discount for lunch. I ordered the BBQ platter and it was so delicious!! The ribs are really soft and fell off of the bone, sausages are yummy, and most importantly the portion is huge! The homemade mac and cheese wasn't very cheesy (which I love) but full of flavour; the potato salad tasted very good as well. I would suggest sharing it with 2 people. The fish and chip tasted good as well but we weren't expecting "chips" instead of fries. The salad tasted good but I prefer their BBQ for sure. Service is great but food took a little while to come out. The restaurant is inside a warehouse and the ambiance feels a bit rural and under decorated - however, I think the food def compensate it! Will return and highly recommend. read more

Nice place, hood food, friendly, helpful service- but we got food to go, and there was a ling, dark hair in my cole slaw. Nust a reminder- servers and chefs must keep hair tied up or back. At other restsurants I've also seen pants dragging along the floor, servers touching tgeir eyes, noses, then plates. No good.) But this place is nice. Definetly recommend. read more

My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Mesquite at the Warehouse. We were absolutely blown away by the exceptional food, service, and atmosphere! I ordered the fresh Garden Salad. The salad tasted like it was harvested today, with crisp, fresh greens, juicy cherry tomatoes, and basil. It was truly a delight! My husband's smoked chicken sandwich was perfectly smoked, paired with creamy guacamole, cherry tomatoes, and arugula. The brisket queso dip is a must pick! It is served with homemade gluten friendly tortilla chips. Our server Valente, was informative, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The venue itself is a gem, with rustic touches and a relaxing atmosphere. Overall, Mesquite at the Warehouse is a must-visit destination in Fredericksburg, TX. With its outstanding food, exceptional service, and charming atmosphere, this restaurant is sure to become a favorite. They opened August 2024. read more

Friend and I went to lunch on Sunday. We both ordered the Brisket plate. I was really looking forward to it since I had previously eaten there. I was so disappointed! The brisket was so dry! I think maybe it was a few days old? I hope the next time it is better. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but it missed the mark in a few key areas. First, they currently don't have a liquor license, so cocktails aren't available--just a limited selection of canned beers and wines by the glass. That's a bit surprising given the pricing and overall positioning of the restaurant. Service felt a little unpolished. Our waiter didn't seem quite ready for service when he first came to the table, and overall the front-of-house presentation didn't match what you'd expect from a higher-end steakhouse. The atmosphere has potential, but it feels a bit inconsistent. There's a nice rustic warehouse-style foundation, but it's mixed with bright LED lighting and shifting colors that take away from the overall ambiance instead of enhancing it. Food-wise, there were some disappointments. The steak didn't have the quality or flavor I was expecting at this price point, and it had an off taste that overpowered the beef. We also ordered fried okra, and the sauce came out cold and separated, which should have been caught before it was served. Overall, it feels like the restaurant is still finding its footing. With some attention to detail--especially around food quality, service consistency, and atmosphere--it could be a much better experience. Right now, it doesn't quite live up to its pricing or potential. read more

This is such a cute and friendly place! While it is not obvious where the entrance is, it's relatively easy to find. You have to drive through to the back where the parking is and the doors to the restaurant are right there once you park. We were greeted immediately upon entry. The food was so good and the gentleman who served us was very polite and quick. Highly recommend the macaroni! I also had a margarita which was delicious. read more

Mesquite came highly recommended by Andre at Six Twists and boy was he right about this place! Mesquite is exactly what Fredericksburg needed. Something off of Main Street and easy to get in and out with great parking. This is definitely not a gourmet restaurant, but the food is just as good. The barbecue platter for one was actually enough probably for three. All of the food, including the grits and the cornbread were spot on. Mark served a martini with jalapeño brine that was delicious. We had five of them total! Everybody was very friendly, even with a very large table that was seated behind us, they were very accommodating and extremely helpful. This is a great place unwind, have great food and great drinks at the large bar that won't break the bank. After having to fight for a table the night before and mediocre food at an expensive steakhouse, I was ready for Mesquite and will be back very soon! I can't wait to have that martini again! An extra thank you to Mark at the bar for being so sweet with answers to all our questions! He's a good guy! read more

This was some of the best bbq I have ever eaten! The meat was perfect and the sides were all NEXT LEVEL delicious. On top of that, the staff was all incredible! We were a group of 12, we came only an hour before closing and they catered to our every need. We tried two other bbq places first and we felt so incredibly blessed that those places were closed and sold out, because we were thrilled with our evening! Sterling was an awesome server, and the bar and kitchen were just amazing as well! Cannot say enough about every dish (bbq ribs, brisket, sausage - all sides were sooooo superior to typical sides! Carrots were shockingly good, amazing cornbread, best coleslaw of my life...) Love love love !!! read more

Service was good, we sat at the bar on a Wednesday. Ordered the brisket queso which was very good. My friend and I split the BBQ platter. Unfortunately the best part of it was the coleslaw which was also very good and the corn bread was nice as well. The pork ribs were not good at all. My guess is they were done last weekend (ate there on a Wed) since they were still cold and way way over done and had a kind of refrigerator funk to them. Pork loin was so so and the chicken was just ok. The cocktail was fabulous and the bartender friendly and helpful. I had really hoped this was going to be a great spot. My recommendations to visitors will not include this establishment. Maybe next time. read more

I greatly enjoyed lunch at Mesquite on a recent Friday. I ordered the veggie sandwich. The bread was high quality and the large sandwich had a really good flavor with plenty of fresh vegetables. My parents got other sandwiches and both took half home for later. The chips it came with were good and well seasoned but I will probably try a different healthier side next time. The service was very attentive and prompt. The ambiance is good and much quieter than the building was before. And the heat and AC work now. They put a lot of work into fixing up the space and it's very nice. I think the only reason the restaurant isn't super crowded is the prices are a bit high for locals. But you do get a lot of excellent food for your buck. I hope to go back soon to try the happy hour. Also the attached gift shop is very nice with very personal service. I always go there to buy gifts for people. read more

Mesquite At The Warehouse - Veggie and pimento cheese sandwich with chips. - Seafood Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

My initial review was not something that any venue would want. However, I have learned over my travels and being a foodie. Like wines, you just occasionally get something bad. So always be open to given a business a second chance. My first experience was the brisket and mac/cheese on the lunch menu. The brisket was dry, the noodles were over cooked and over priced. Last week I visited for dinner and I was blown away. The turnip greens were delicious. The lean brisket was very moist and juicy. I typically prefer places that offer a lunch counter/bar over table seating. M@WH offers a large bar for those who like to drop in early. They also offer a few Texas wines which is always bonus points in my book. If restaurants in Fredericksburg expect or want industry people to support them or refer customers, I believe it is important that the business support local wineries and they offer a selection of two or three Vineyards. I do encourage them to do a tasting with the bar staff. While I understand that the bartender is new but his puzzled look when I inquired about Texas Wines told me he was clueless. The seasoned bartender was better but still should have a general knowledge of the vineyard. What the vineyard grape varietals they grow and used for the wine....they should know. I don't know what it taste like honestly isn't a good answer. That is not only the staff. Otherwise, they ROCKED. The Mgr behind the bar followed his kid to the area. His background in law enforcement makes him a great person behind the bar. His skills at making people feel welcome and starting conversation is definitely his skill. read more

What an amazing meal we had at this tucked away restaurant. It is a little hard to find, especially in the dark; it really is in the back of a warehouse, you drive down a dirt path between two buildings and enter swinging slates wooden doors. Sterling was our waiter and provided excellent service. A meat platter was ordered with brisket, pork ribs, and sausage and a choice of two sides. The meat was excellent quality and seasoned to perfection. The shrimp and grits were absolutely delicious! You must not miss this when in Fredericksburg. Prices were reasonable. read more

Looking on the website, it looked like a pretty good place to go. driving to it it was hard to tell that it was even open. Barely saw a sign to say enter in the back. Even in the back, it looked like it was closed nothing very inviting to say come on in. We went inside. It was pretty desolate. Nobody really greeted. I think there were two tables with people eating when we were there on a Thursday night around 6 PM. We got greeted relatively well , the ambience was pretty dead. We ordered a roasted chicken and a barbecue platter. The food came in a timely manner. The presentation looked pretty good unfortunately my partner who ordered a half chicken instead got a slab of pork when we asked about it we were told it was a half chicken only later did the server come by and say that she made a mistake And we were actually given a slab of pork. The pork was very fatty. My barbecue platter also included a portion of pork, which was also fat the barbecue brisket needed a little something more. We had eaten at other barbecue restaurants in the area and this by far was the worst overpriced, underserved and not a very good experience for the amount of money that was charged. read more

I order pork ribs from Door Dash. I don't know if they were sousvide with no sear or just straight up boiled. They were grey with a little parsley.
