Dwight’s comments:
As Lawrence put it, “Now I know why we go there every couple of years: so we can remind ourselves why we don’t go there more often.”
The Mesa Hills Cafe is within walking distance of my apartment, and has a 1/2 price burger special on Saturday nights: that’s about all that can be said for it.
Even though it wasn’t crowded that night (I guess the weather kept everyone in.) the service was indifferent (I got the feeling they were short of wait staff because of the weather; but they sure seemed to have enough staff to give the few other customers much more attention than they gave us.) and the food was…mediocre. They have some unusual menu items, but they couldn’t even seem to get a simple burger right: I wouldn’t trust them with anything more complicated.
Frankly, it seems to be a “bar food” sort of place; but even in that category, Waterloo does a better burger.

Additional comments from Ann Anonymous Diner:
A stripmall burger place for housewifes who don’t know any better. Yuk.
