About Taquilo's Tex-Mex

Taquilo's Tex-Mex offers delicious food and great service. The restaurant is known for its margaritas and fajitas, as well as the flavorful Chimichanga. Customers appreciate the friendly and attentive staff, with special mention of server Manny. The pricing may be a bit high, but the quality of the food makes it worth it. Whether for a date night or casual hangout with friends and family, Taquilo's Tex-Mex is a recommended spot with indoor and outdoor seating options. Recent visitors have praised the friendly staff, especially Diego, and the great margaritas that are both delicious and inexpensive. The lunch special, Baja, with shrimp tacos, has been called the best ever. The food is described as absolutely phenomenal, from the cilantro cream dip to the fajitas and tacos al carbon, with super tender steak. The manager, Robert, is helpful and kind, and the customer service is excellent, with staff making things right when needed. Dishes like ceviche, guacamole, and chicken fajitas are highly recommended for anyone looking for great Mexican food.

Guests also enjoy fajita Monday, which features a large amount of food and wonderful chips and salsa. The service is often praised, with servers like Quentin and Andrea providing attentive and perfect service. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with the food tasting really good and fresh. The salsa and shrimp and lobster taco get special compliments, and many visitors plan to return whenever they are in town. The overall experience is consistently positive, making Taquilo's Tex-Mex a top choice for Mexican food lovers.

A nice surprise in Galveston is the good service and fresh guacamole made for vegan dietary needs, which was described as brilliant. A flexitarian friend enjoyed nachos and the margarita was cold and tasty, making it a good choice on the island. The first visit left a very good impression, especially with warm salsa and thin chips. The Mixed Grill was way too much food but so delicious that leftovers made a second meal. The only downside was going on Saturday when margaritas were small for $10, so visiting during happy hours when they are $5 is recommended. During a visit, the staff was nice and cordial, and a pound of beef fajitas with sides was very good. The frozen Margarita was excellent, making it highly recommended for anyone in Galveston to stop by. Many plan to return on their next trip to the area.

Very good & affordable place to eat downtown

While spending a few days in Galveston my wife and I checked out Taquilo's. We left very satisfied. The waitstaff was nice and cordial. We order a pound of beef fajitas and along with the sides it was all very good. Excellent frozen Margarita! I would highly recommend if you are in Galveston make this a stopping point. We will definitely return on our next stay in Galveston.

Jade the bartender made an amazing cucumber margarita best one I’ve had in years service was amazing. Food was great will definitely be returning.
