    House margarita with queso-chorizo dip
    Steve S.

    My quest for out-of-this world Mexican food in Ashland continues. I was hoping Mezcal would be a contender after making its triumphant return following a 3 year hiatus. I never got a chance to try the place the first go-around, so better late than never. The location has it all. Downtown spot amidst the friendly Ashland bustle. Third floor balcony seats with an amazing view of the valley--unbeatable when the weather is just right. We made reservations outside and it ended up being a gorgeous warm evening with a cool breeze. Drinks came out. I was stoked for a nice meal. The eats were ultimately lacking. The highlight of the meal was the chorizo queso dip for the chips. Aggressive flavor with diced peppers and seasoned chorizo in each bite. My main was the shrimp enchiladas which I think they forgot to season. Enchiladas tasted like plain tortillas, rice tasted like plain rice, and beans tasted like plain beans. It was missing the spice and flare of a good Mexican joint. The wet burrito was a notch better, so I think there could be some hidden gems on the extensive menu. Although I've noticed when a restaurant menu has several pages, it becomes too difficult to execute every option with finesse. Overall in my mind the place falls in the "tourist restaurant" category. Probably good for people passing through who want a spot with a great view walking up from the plaza. I think if the restaurant wants to level-up and attract locals, they should simplify the menu to one page and focus on elevating the quality.

    Trivia: If you sit on the roof and face the hillsides to the East, what four things will you see flapping in the wind? - - - Down a narrow and mostly dark hallway will find you at the creepiest elevator to start this excursion. It's slow and windowless and gives you vibes that if it stalls out, no one will ever find you. After that, it's all roses and tail wags. Queso - good with chunks of peppers (maybe jalapeños? Definitely jalapeño, there's some KICK). The mezcal old fashioned struck me as a little watery. For those who don't like the heavy mezcal flavor or the heavy taste of smoky bourbon, will like it. Food came out Fast! I ordered the carnitas because it got me a chance to try so many things. The guac, the rice and beans, the pico. Service was friendly and on point. The same hostess was also the server. Doing it all! Hard to best the view!

    I'm glad they reopened! I first came here years ago and was excited to see it is back! Great looking menu, lots of seating and friendly staff. The hibiscus margarita wasn't overly sweet, the asparagus was nicely cooked, and the carnitas were full of flavor! I even enjoyed the rice and beans. I wish there were more than 3 small tortillas for the large serving of carnitas but everything else was great!

    I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Take the elevator up to the third floor. Newly renovated and classy atmosphere. Outstanding Mexican cuisine. The arroz con pollo was beyond delicious! Huge portion, come hungry! Our server was gracious and sweet. Our food was served quickly. There's a great view and outdoor patio.

    Really great seeing this place back in business. Their location is absolutely perfect, in the heart of downtown and a few of the river and downtown. We decided to order the chile relleno and it was delicious. We also had the guacamole with a side of habanero sauce. Have a giant offering of tequilas and Mekkers. Definitely worth stopping by.

    I "SKOUTED" this place out all the way from Sacramento California. We're on a long roadtrip and I…read morewas looking for something beautiful and hearty to hold us over for the rest of our drive. This place truly exceeded our expectations. I love that the restaurant store front is opened wide, it makes it easy to approach and order at the counter. They have a very large variety of alcoholic drink options and some very tasty non alcoholic options as well. Even though we sat outside about 5 tables down, they still came by to deliver our food to us instead of having us waiting inside. The food was amazing. Meat was juicy, bread was perfect, both the sides of fries and house made chips were delicious. The ranch tasted like it was house made as well but I forgot to ask them. My cider was great and my partner got a strawberry slushy- both did not disappoint. The overall theme inside is adorable! It's got a lot of wooden pieces and a camping trailer inside really ties the theme together nicely. There is plenty of tables and shade outside and lots of indoor seating as well. Bathrooms are super clean and clearly well maintained by the folded toilet paper roll. The only thing I will say is if you're going to sit outside expect outside things to happen. There was a lot of flying debris from around the creek due to someone down the way doing outdoor maintenance. Despite this, my partner and I thought it was worth it to hear the running water and be in such a beautiful area for lunch. I would scream my recommendation from the roof top if I could. Thank you for a great meal!

    Location, location, location!…read more At Skout tap house all three meanings are working in the restaurant's favor. First, Ashland is a great LOCATION to grab a bite before braving the mountain passes on either side. Within the town the Skout building is LOCATED at the edge of the creek and beautiful Lithia park, and finally the Skout LOCATION itself is a building comfortably decorated with a camping themed ambiance. We ordered the Ultra Meltathon (grilled cheese), a Brisket sandwich, and truffle fries. The Skout version of a grilled cheese, augmented with bacon and jam, was the standout for us. The thin cut and crispy truffle fries were also very good and were gobbled up quickly. On the other hand the brisket was a bit dry but serviceable today rather than a standout. Maybe add some bbq sauce to elevate it a bit? I loved the curated craft beers on tap so check these out if so inclined. See the pics for a glimpse of the roll-up door window that opens to the park, the inside tables and camper, and of course the food. Probably a 4.5 but rounded to 5 stars because of ... location, location, location!
