My husband and I were seated right away. We ordered a large margarita which was tasty but a lot of ice in it. Our dinner arrived promptly and was delicious. We definitely would return again.

The "Tequila's Special" is really good. It's shrimp cooked over charcoal in a green tomatillo sauce with rice (no beans). I really liked this dish. It's mildly spicy, but not picante.The carne asada dinner is really good. It's a thin steak that's marinated and cooked over charcoal. It came with rice and beans. The beans were really good, but the rice was average.The house salsa was average. It was mostly diced tomatoes with some onions, but it wasn't spicy at all.We ordered a jumbo margarita for $15. It tasted pretty good, but it was mostly ice.The chicken enchilada in red sauce was a disappointment. It had no flavor, and the enchilada shell was very mushy.Our waiter and the chips person were super attentive. The food came out quickly.

Food tasted like stale fish grease. We asked for 2 house margaritas on the rocks. Waiter says "Want to make those larges?" We said "sure". Then when we are done he slaps the bill down quickly and leaves. $17 each for 2 "House" margaritas! They were 99% ice too. It was crushed ice as well and packed tightly in the glass. Didnt seem like it had really any tequila either. They are crooks here. Any drinks costing that much should give you a strong buzz and you should be made aware that they are so highly over priced. Not worth it at all. It wasn't top shelf tequila it was "house". I've been to high end resteraunts and not paid this much for a single drink anywhere ever. They take full advantage of tourists that are just passing through. It's shameful.Vegetarian options: They are horribleKid-friendliness: Terrible environment for kidsWheelchair accessibility: None

Food sucks and margaritas are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy overpriced. $20 for 90% ice and 1% alcohol. Don't waste your time or money

They have incredible service and the food was really great. Started off with chips that were still warm. They replaced our chips and salsa as soon as they got low and topped off our water. Then when the food came it was also incredible. I wish I lived in this area just because this place is so good that I want to come back here.

I have been coming here every birthday since I was little. The staff has a wonderful birthday routine! It is literally the best Mexican restaurant in the WORLD. I love the staff, they are so friendly, and the food is AMAZING. Even the salsa is the best I've ever had. I love the refried beans and cheese, it is SO GOOD! This is truly the best restaurant.Kid-friendliness: They are one of the most kid friendly restaurants I've ever seen. I've been coming here ever since I myself was a kid. The staff is super nice and does a great job.
