Margaritas are delicious!!!

Worst experience ordering I have ever received! Was told didn’t need my business after my order was never delivered! We have ordered here before and food is good, but worst service I have had in a long time!

Don't listen to the haters. This is legit Mexican food.

Place seems nice when you walk in. Staff was friendly, but inept, but one waitress started today and the other had been there for only about two weeks. they were not sure how to answer my question when I asked, if their beef was seasoned. She had to go into the kitchen and ask. I asked if the shredded chicken was seasoned. Had to run back into the kitchen. We ordered drinks that never arrived. Place does not seem clean, and kind of happy we never got the drinks because of that. I reluctantly turned down dessert “on the house”. Owner/manager didn’t even come to apologize, he sent the waitress. Didn’t say anything to us even while making eye contact as we were walking out the door. Sorry, we will not be back. I’ll go 2 more miles down the road to the Cuckoo’s Nest.

If you are looking for good Mexican food in the area, Tequila's is your best option. Great taste and great people.

I really want to like this place because there are so few good Mexican places on the shoreline. The carne asada is so tough that my fiancé couldn’t even cut through the meat with a steak knife. The manager came over and said “it’s supposed to be like that” and that “it’s chuck”. They did take it off the bill. Michelada was decent, margarita way alright.This is a second chance for this place…the service this time is slower than the first.I’m sorry to say that we won’t be coming back.

All of the above and this food is especially delicious. My favorite is always the rice

Service is soooo slow. Food doesn't have any flavor. Not coming back. I am hispanic and this place is way below 1 star.

Maria Phillips

Excellent food. Great atmosphere. Moderate price. All in all

Food was mediocre at best but the place seemed to be run by teenagers! After I was told to wait (I’m the customer right?) by the bartender/manager my order was not what I ordered. Won’t be going back to this place again.

Online ordering was fast and easy. The bean soup was healthy and tasty. The chicken burrito had a bit too much rice for my taste.

One of the more consistent and tasty authentic Mexican options on the shoreline. Cheerful and fun atmosphere for families or couples. Would have actually been 5 stars but they often overcook the carnitas and chicken for some reason. When they're done right they're the absolute best but half the time they come out a little too charred.

We stopped out of curiosity since I was in the mood for soup, so the next door place wasn't available.We walked in and found out they have a Mexican beef soup that was unexpectedly great. It reminded me of a different version of "Sancocho" which is a soup in the Caribbean. Great taste, generous portion for the money and good service. Children ordered different things and they liked them as wel.Will go back.

The salsa is made with canned tomatoes need to add noodles to that and Call it spaghetti dinner the corn tortillas were chewy the good point is the drinks are very heavy you need one to drink to make the food look good and taste good

The best salsa I’ve ever had, hands down. The tamales were unlike any tamales I’ve had, but also phenomenal. And the drinks don’t suck! Would come back again, any time.
