I'm very surprised I'm only giving this 3 stars. As I love Bobby Flay's taste in sauces and food in general. I think we share a similar palette. The man knows how to use a blender to create some bold and wonderful flavors. Like myself - he likes a little heat but not so much that it just overpowers everything.\n\nBut something is missing from Mesa Grill. I think I know what it is. VALUE. Look - I know it's not Little Caesar's pizza. We're not getting 2 large pizzas for $9 or whatever. But when you order a $12 appetizer and you get like 2 duck tacos to share amongst your table of white collar professionals who are aghast at the appetizer pricing you know something is wrong. Love the flavor of said duck tacos. Love the flavor of his tamales. The masa is just so flavorful! Unlike any tamale I've had.\n\nBut still....even with a nice steak. The meal just is too expensive for what you get. This is coming from someone who has spent $400 for a meal and been happy to do so.\n\nSomething is missing but can't express it as well as I'd like. I may take one for the Yelp team and go there again so I can update this review. Now it's bugging me....
