The Top 100 Restaurants Near Mesa Market Place Swap Meet

Updated June 17, 2026

Categories

  1. Rank 1. Caldwell County BBQ

    Texas-Style Barbecue

    Park out back and walk past giant smokers puffing smoke as you head to the counter at this Gilbert barbecue spot with wooden picnic tables and a modern-country feel. The mesquite-smoked prime brisket with its peppercorn crust and the apple-butter turkey breast are the standouts, though the monster El General Patton sandwich—brisket, pulled pork, and sausage on one roll—proves that more is sometimes better.

  2. Rank 2. Hapa Food

    Hawaiian

    A small, wildly popular Hawaiian spot doing short-menu plate lunches with kalbi that's charred sweet and smoky, poke seasoned with restraint, and chicken glazed in garlicky excess. Malasadas come fried to order and stuffed with vanilla custard or ube cream, making it worth tracking their daily specials and arriving hungry.

Stop by mornings for lavender lattes and smoked salmon danish, then return dressed up for a date night that feels like a brief escape to France.

    Texas-style Barbecue

    You'll stand in line with your nose in the smoke, watching the menu board get taped over as items sell out, then order your meat from the counter guy before moving on to sides that range from mac and cheese to jalapeño cheddar grits. This casual Texas Hill Country-style barbecue shop run by competitive pitmasters does straightforward, top-tier brisket, pulled pork, and butter-soft beef short ribs on weekends.

    Retro-cool burger counter from a trio of James Beard-nominated restaurateurs, with pastel tiles and a cartoon burger on the wall, where semi-smashed patties arrive hot off the line. The Sonora burger—griddled cheese, chiltepin, bacon—is the real draw, best enjoyed with crispy fries and an eventual craft beer from their upcoming brewery next door.

The 20-piece dumpling combo hits five different fillings, and the dan dan noodles with crunchy peanuts are sharp enough to remember on the drive home.

    The Stone is a bright, casual Korean spot in Mesa's Asian District where bubbling soondubu arrives in an earthenware crock and you crack a raw egg into the fiery broth yourself, watching it cook alongside house-made tofu and your choice of seafood or beef. Beyond the signature tofu stews, there's beef bulgogi and bibimbap, though fair warning: the red broth means white shirts don't survive the meal.

  79. Rank 79. The Stockyards

    Western Steakhouse

    The Stockyards has been slinging corn-fed steaks and prime rib since 1947, in a dining room that feels like it's been waiting for you since the cattle-baron days, with baking soda biscuits that haven't changed and a wood-paneled saloon designed by a rancher's wife. Order the Arizona cut rib-eye, nurse a whiskey, and settle in among the Western leather and old-school swagger of a place that takes its steakhouse pedigree seriously.

  91. Rank 91. Mister Pio

    Peruvian

    Smoke from an enormous rotisserie oven fills this small, modern counter spot the moment you walk in, announcing exactly what you came for. Order a whole or half bird with salad and Peruvian sauces, thick-cut fries, and an Inca Kola, and you'll understand why the parking lot smells the way it does.

  92. Rank 92. Ted's Hot Dogs

    American

    A New York transplant runs this casual counter joint where the hot dogs are properly plump and juicy, the brats equally impressive, and both land on fluffy toasted buns. The real draw is the sides—fries smothered in gravy, a regional rarity—and specials like the White Hot, which pairs sauerkraut and mustard with dead-serious intent.
