Mari Chuy’s Tequileria - Rancharrah

Our favorite Mexican spot in town!
We love the unique tequila lockers, the excellent food, and the consistently great service. Always a fantastic experience!

The lengua tacos were tender and well prepared. The beans and rice were authentic. I enjoyed the ambiance and restaurant design. The flan was classically prepared. Texture and flavor were satisfying. Lots of taco options. I will be returning with my wife in the near future.

Overall I'd say 3.5 stars....Really nice location with great outdoor seating. Our service was excellent. Great chips and salsa, but both my buddy and I felt that our entree was mediocre. I'll likely go back to try something else, maybe other entrees are better than the mole.

This is probably my favorite location of theirs as it's so nice, and parking makes it easy to meet up with folks for dinner. The ambiance is upscale, and the staff are very hospitable. I can usually get in without needing a reservation. My favorite entree here is the shrimp quesadilla as it's the perfect portion size, and a strawberry margarita! Great spot for a nicer professional lunch, or just to meet up with friends.

I ordered the Chile relleno plate, first off it was supposed to have two on the plate, I only got one and after taking a bite I was thankful there was only one because it wasn't to my liking. It was more like a plain omelette wrapped around the pasilla pepper, just way too much egg to be the thin layer it should've had and no flavor other than egg. The only thing I liked was the chips and salsa

Fantastic food with delicious meats and sauces. Affordable menu. Margaritas yummy, albeit a bit expensive. Our server was great!

I'll start with some positives:
We were seated right away.
The place was clean.
The location is nice, isn't congested, and has esthetic appeal.
Wonderful selection of tequila.

Now onto the food.. incredibly disappointing experience.

The flavor was not quite there. And worse yet, the meals really weren't even cooked correctly.

I got the molcajete. Insanely bad. Cheap, small shrimp and way too much cheese. Frankly, I've never seen cheese melted into the sauce like that.. and now I know why. This is better suited to garbagy American fast food.
Another issue - they don't sear, sauté, or grill any of the meat. I asked about this thinking the kitchen had just forgotten. When I asked, I just received a puzzled look. So I went to look at their Google page to show the waitress. Then i realized why she was confused. They just don't do this. Why? No clue. It doesn't take that long and adds so much flavor to the dish.

The entire table agreed that the only thing that was worth getting was one of the appetizers. I can't remember what it was called, but it was essentially their grazing board. That was amazing. But I noted that likely they didn't make any of this and simply assembled it - granted, presentation was very nice.

O boy, I forgot to mention one of the worst parts. We start eating the rice and all start looking at each other. It's awfully familiar, but also clearly devoid of any flavor that could be described as "Mexican." Not kidding, we're pretty sure it was Uncle Ben's rice. Not a joke.

This place is a joke. And then you look at the clientele and realize it isn't catering to many Mexicans. The whole place is filled with the fairer-skinned people. And this makes sense.

No offense to non-Latinos who haven't grown up on good, home cooked Mexican food. But.. this food is for you guys.

The food at the taco truck by PJ's is considerably better. And at a fifth of the price.

Beautiful location with a nice outside dining patio. Note: if you arrive late afternoon. Much of the outdoor patio could be in the sun. It also has a huge garage door allowing you to sit inside and feel the outside courtyard. Service was excellent. The food for me was good but not great. Given the prices, I was a little underwhelmed. They need to add cushions to their chairs as you will be sitting on solid wood. I was uncomfortable after about an hour in the chair.
