Mesa Restaurants

From dusty territorial outpost to thriving Phoenix suburb to modern urban hub, the city of Mesa has changed a lot in its nearly 150-year history to become the third largest city in Arizona. As the city has grown, so has its culinary landscape. Mesa’s unique balance of 21st-century innovation and Southwestern history is reflected deeply in its cuisine. In true Arizona style, the city is home to dozens of steakhouses ranging from traditional ranch-style joints to Japanese and Brazilian options. Mesa’s Mexican roots are on display at decades-old family-run landmarks and Baja-style grills alike. As the city has expanded, so has Mesa’s palate with an endless number of international fine dining spots, including Polish, Latin American and Vietnamese specialties.
