Mesa Food & Liquor

Charges 75 cents for charges to cards, even though the banks are required a maximum of 22 cents, sounds like a greedy owner to me!

ive gone here twice in my life, both times ive gotten nothing but attitude from the guy behind the counter. different guy both times so at least its not just ONE rude person but the whole store. always starts with an attitude about me being of age, even after presenting my CA drivers license (im 27 btw) i dont mind my id being checked, i mind being asked if its a fake and given attitude when he believes it is a fake. then i made the mistake of using debit and hit the wrong pin number and he got an attitude claiming that now he has to pay a charge. i asked him what his problem was and he said something in another language so i told him to keep his shit ill go to one of the other 20 liquor stores in the neighborhood. he tried to tell me if i came back hed call the cops. GREAT customer service sir.
its not exactly a monopoly on liquor stores in san diego but this guy acts like his is the only place in town. i said i wouldnt go back after the first time, gave it 6 months and late on night decided to stop in and buy 2 beers and got the same attitude as the first time and not even a thanks when leaving.
worst liquor store ive been too, asshole behind the counter. and not even competitive pricing on most items. no thx buddy. not sure how this store has an A health rating when theres bugs on the ground both times ive gone in, shelves covered in dust and just in disarray.
good to know he treats his own store the way he trest his customers.
ill drive the extra 5 mins to go to Kings Liquor by Ralphs or Rosewood liquor off briarwood. both guys in those stores are polite and treat customrs as customers, not as annoyances.

I have never gone to this liquor store until now and I have been living in San Diego for most of my life… then again I am unsure if this was even a liquor store back in the day.
I stopped by here over Thankstaking break to by some drinks to bring over to my friends place and I would normally just give this spot an A-​OK rating for being a regular liquor store on the block. However, I will up the rating cause I found some Sisco in this liquor store, which I know is sometimes hard to find.
That drink is delicious and gets the job done before hitting a party or taking a night out downtown! Grape taste like Dimetap, yummmmmm. Plus, its a really cheap drink!
