About us
A family kitchen that has been feeding the neighborhood since 2011.
Our story
La Mesa Kitchen opened in 2011 with six tables, one oven and the recipes our grandmother wrote by hand in a kitchen notebook.
Today we serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, bake for half the neighborhood, cater family celebrations and drive our food truck to festivals across the area. The notebook still sits on the shelf above the stove.

“We cook for every guest the way our mother cooked for the family on Sunday.”
Elena Vargas

Guest reviews
Guests who keep coming back.
The roast pork tastes exactly like my grandmother’s. We come every Sunday after church and they always remember our order.

Sunday regular
They catered our daughter’s quinceañera for 180 guests. The food was hot, the servers were wonderful and everyone asked who cooked.

Quinceañera catering
We booked the food truck for our office party and the Cuban sandwiches disappeared in minutes. Easy to plan and great people.
