Marieta's - La Mesa

First time eating here after passing by it manytimes. They bring chips and salsa i prefer a picadillo type) its hot but lacks salt for me) I ordered the carna asada steak ruce and beans combo for $21 the steak was cooked to order and taste good. It was chewy or undercooked like some places. The rice and beans had a home made taste and they serve food sized portions. I also had the bacon wrapped shrimp. These were tasty but a bit dry and overcooked in the oven. I had a margarita which i felt was a watered down slushy. And lacked flavor which i kinda of expected since this isnt a typical bar but they should blend and add nore flavor as after 5min its pretty much a watered down drink with minimal Alcohol. My party also ordered the barbeque chicken which i think was baked and rubbed with adobo rub and it was a 5 out of 10 i wouldnt reorder. The cheese enchilada and other plates were good. Server was prompt and friendly overall a good restuarant and staff was nice. They have 1 stall each for men and women restroom. There is a bar inside if you want to watch a game id give it an 8 out of 10. The parking can be a challenge as they only can accommadate about 7 cars unless you park on the street. Vegetarian options: Cheese filled dishes and fajita style vegetables. Wheelchair accessibility: You can easily fit wheelchair on side door
