Mesa is Spanish in origin, a derivative of the word mensa, which in Latin means "table". Mensa is a feminine Latin noun of the 1st declension and declines as follows:

Sing.

N. mensa the table

G. mensae of the table

D. mensae to/for the table

A. mensam the table

A. mensae by/with the table

V. mensa! O! Table!

Plural

N. mensae the tables

G. mensarum of the tables

D.mensis to/for the tables

A. mensas the tables

A mensis by/with the tables

V. mensas! O! Tables!

So if I want to say, "I go to the table," I have to write: Vado mensae.

The word mesa, which means "a flat tableland", comes, perhaps not surprisingly, from Latin mensa, which means "table".
