Find a Caterer in Ventura

My sister and I hosted a surprise anniversary party for our parents and hired Men of Mesquite to cater it. Dan Diaz was a involved from our earliest days of planning; we were familiar with his food when he was the long-time owner of a local established restaurant, which he recently sold. He is now an award winning bar-b-que expert! He enabled us to try several of his recommended appetizers, side dishes, and entrees at an open tasting he had planned. Though our event would be more formal, we loved his corn on the cob and chili beans and wished we could include them in our menu.The event turned out great. Men of Mesquite was prompt, detail oriented and made delicious food for the party.  Dan was able to ensure that we had foods that could be enjoyed by our vegan and vegetarian guests, seamlessly integrating them into our menu. The tri-tip and garden enchiladas were especially delicious.

This is by far the greatest Mexican restaurant this side of the Rio Grande!  The location is sub par (hard to spot the small place from the street) but other than that, I can't say one negative thing about this place.  The food is unbelievably good: fresh, authentic, perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked, great portion sizes, not too expensive.  I'm partial to their Chile Relleno but their taco platter is also excellent.  Nice cozy whole in the wall atmosphere and the people that work their are very friendly.  If you live in Ventura county, you have no excuse to not visit this legendary place.

very nice owner & food tasted great

Love the shrimp and fish burrito, it's a meal for 2. And we love the poke salad and the tuna wraps. Fast service. Great place

These people spend a lot of time on their quality, every time I come here the tri tip is always tender and flavorful. They said it comes comes from Omaha and they use a secret rub (which they sell). Their burritos have the most tri tip then any other tri tip burrito I've ever seen. They're prices are about average for a burrito if you compare it to Chipotle. You know the food is fresh too because there's always someone in the parking lot cooking on a huge grill. This is hands down better then Wood ranch and the other BBQ places in the area because the other BBQ places have chewy meat or it's not enough. Their sauce is really good stuff too! There's just about every kind of BBQ at this place too so it's not just tri tip.

Overall mot s bad place. The nachos are huge and wonderful

This was great especially when you have Justine as your waitress...she knows all the most delicious beers.

Healthy food prepared daily, what else could you ask for? Highly recommend it!

Big Mann Roger and his crew stepped up and took on our wedding with less then 30 days notice. The food was amazing and the service outstanding. Roger went out of his way to ensure our guests were well fed and happy. I highly recommend Big Mann BBQ! You will not be disappointed!
