Happy Hour at Blue Mesa

Special prices on margaritas and beer. Complimentary quesadilla bar from 4:00pm to 6:30pm.

This Dallas version of the Blue Mesa trio (the others are in Addison and Fort Worth) has a stunning entry. The narrow passage resembles a river gorge with sheer stucco walls and stones that lead to a pair of huge wooden doors. Positioned on the second floor in the Lincoln Park strip, the interior is replete with chic Southwestern touches. The hybrid menu merging Mexican, New Mexican and South American touches remains clean and vibrant, with few changes over time. On a recent visit the adobe pie was rustic and full of chicken and corn. Their two-toned corn chowder and black bean soup blends earthy and sweet flavors nicely. And they serve a trio of chips with two salsas. Good place to compare tequila shots, too.
