Review of La Mesa Mexican Kitchen

We ate here today, for a change from our usual Stockton place, the nearby Market Tavern (the two restaurants apparently share ownership). There are a lot GF choices at La Mesa, and I was pleased to see that the enchiladas are GF. They did not appear to have a separate GF menu, and there no GF markings on the menu. The serves were helpful though. Our server was not too well informed about the GF choices, but he was a bit over cautious, and that is better than being not cautious enough. He just had to confirm a few things with the kitchen, and then I had a good selection. The kitchen staff certainly understand what GF really means, and I had no issues. We both enjoyed our food, and yes, the enchiladas are gluten free! The price is right too - food and drinks were very reasonably priced, and the quality was high.
