Wife and I had dinner and we were both amazed how good the food is here. Service is great. My Wife isn't really fond of thier chips. They were too thick and hard for her to bite. I just thought would ask our server if they could make her some that were cooked as long...to not be so hard. And she came back with some lighter and thiner. Going the extra mile is what good service is all about. We will be back over and over. Tacos and Tequila is our favorite place.

It was our first time. The food was very good. They do use good quality meat for the carne asada. Loreal was our server and she was very nice and attentive. Nothing was missing so she did an amazing job. I only have one suggestion. The presentation of the food. I believe they can work on it. I had the surf and turf burrito. It was just the burrito and a drop of chipotle on the side. Just a different presentation would make it look a lot better. Music kind of doesn’t for the Mexican restaurant theme. Then again it’s my personal opinion. Maybe when the bar is in full swing. Besides that the atmosphere was cool. Everyone was nice and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place.

Lively place with great food and wonderful service. The Naked Poblano with rice and beans was a unique dish. The chile was stuffed with chopped shrimp and there was a creamy poblano sauce poured over the top of it. The sauce had a good flavor. It was fairly mellow but very good. It was perfect for lunch as it was nice and light and not too filling. The beans and rice were flavorful. It was served with corn tortillas that tasted freshly homemade.

The food/beverages are amazing and they even have specialty drinks that are delicious and creative. You can't go wrong here. They have TVs and great music. It's the full package and you will not be disappointed. Worth your visit!

Would rate this restaurant a 4.7 out of 5. Environment was lively music was good, establishment was clean. Server was friendly, went on a Friday night there was a bit of a wait about 30 for a big party. We were given complimentary chips and salsa. Food was good, recommend the shrimp cocktail if you’re into that. Asked for a chill tequila shot; however, shot was not chilled at all.
