Death By Tequila is a lively, busy restaurant popular with tourists, offering a wide variety of food and cocktails. The menu features the pineapple habanero salsa, mushroom tacos, and creative, fresh margaritas. The bartender is knowledgeable about tequila and mezcal, often sharing insights and recommending different spirits, which adds to the authentic experience. Visitors have enjoyed the fish tacos and lobster gordita, describing them as excellent. The restaurant is a good spot for margaritas, with staff being attentive and friendly during visits. Parking is usually available on weekdays, but weekends can be challenging. The service can be inconsistent; while some guests experience attentive staff and quick service, others have faced delays, especially in getting drinks after meals. The restaurant has vegetarian options, and desserts are sweet and satisfying, though some find them overly sugary. The ambiance is energetic and suited for groups, which may make it less ideal for quiet dates. Overall, the food and drinks are generally praised, but occasional lapses in service and cleanliness are noted.
