Tequila Mexican Restaurant

We were in from out of town and gave it a shot based on the existing reviews. The food and margaritas were excellent- especially the verde sauce.

For all my fellow California transplants out there, avoid this spot. Trust me, I'm saving you the money and time. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, this ain't it. Don't let other reviews try to tell you different. Bland and tasteless, every dish we ordered was lacking flavor. Everything from the salsa to the chile relleno is off. I ordered a bunch of items off the al la carte menu and was disappointed by everything. The ground beef and chicken they use as a main ingredient in so many dishes needs much more love put into it, very bland. My tamale was so dense and dry, it was almost inedible. The Chile relleno tasted as if it was frozen and reheated, and the breading that was on it was soggy and tasted off. The enchiladas were okay, but the ground beef ruined it. The burrito is very lackluster. My wife got the fajitas and they beef had no char to it, it was just completely gray and it looked like dog food. This place leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the food. The service was super friendly and very attentive, they're the only reason I'm keeping my review above one star. The lighting is waaaaaay too bright, makes for a weird vibe in a Mexican restaurant. I heard a lot of hype for this place so I was excited to try it, but it misses the mark for us. I'm sure others will love it, but it's not for us. Another swing and miss in the hunt for good Mexican food in Tennessee.

Still my favorite place to get Mexican food in all of the boro!!! I tried the street tacos for the first time today and I think I might have found my new go to order. The Al Pastor was my favorite followed by the chorizo and then the chicken. They had so much flavor! The street corn dip and bean dip were really good. Queso and guacamole as well and the guacamole was so fresh. Absolutely love this place!

The service was good, the burrito al carbon was really good. The meat was seasoned very well. My wife didn't care for the burrito Jalisco. I tasted it and it wasn't for me either. The burrito verde was superb. The place is lit up super bright you may want to bring your sun glasses.

Finally perhaps a place that is destined to keep this location open. Beautiful and bright inside with colorful booths. Excellent customer service from the time we entered. Greeted by several people and then seated. Wasn't super busy but it is new and not well known yet. Large menu selection. Comfortable seating. Had the Coctel de Cameron and two steak street tacos. Younger son has a la carte tacos (one soft & one crunchy) and a la carte grilled chicken enchilada. Fresh hot and tasty. Anytime it is under $100 for us four to eat with food service, it is a win!

I'm all in! We've been here twice now and the service is outstanding. There is plenty of parking, but there is only one entrance. So, if you park on the left side, you have to walk around the building to get inside. The restaurant is well lit, bright, and vibrant! My husband ordered the Shrimp Poblano and I got a wet burrito with chicken. The first time I went, I ordered the a la carte Chili Relleno...it was huge! No complaints on the food. I also ordered a house margarita. I think Carmen's still has them beat on margaritas, but I'm really picky with my alcohol! The only thing that would take this place from a 10 to an 11.........a live mariachi band on the weekends!

Visited Tequila Mexican Restaurant, they have been open for a month. My server Xóchitl got me set up with some water and a beer while I looked over the menu. Love it when beer is served in a frozen mug! I ordered the Chorizo Queso appetizer and based on Xóchitl's recommendations selected the Carnitas with beans & rice. The queso is really good and had a nice flavor, but no spice or zing at all. The Carnitas confused me...I asked Xóchitl if the Carnitas were fried and she told me they were. I thought the outside seemed "crispy" which made the exterior a little tough, but the inside was tender. I learned that this is the Crispy Carnitas version (who knew). Sadly the flavor you expect from carnitas was not there...the slow cooking, seasoning, etc just wasn't there. Overall the meal was OK when everything is taken into consideration and the service was very good.

We really enjoyed our lunch here. We scored a $2.99 margarita that was so yummy as well. We ordered a variety of street tacos, lunch carnitas, burrito supreme, and a dish with Carne asada and elotes, everything was tasty. We are planning to come back already to try their other dishes. Chips and salsa and fresh tortillas are added bonus. All in all only paid $50 for a family of 4. Such a great deal!

Had 2 steak street tacos. Steak was tender and had lots of flavor. Will be backservice was good and fast Came for a quick lunch

This is a new restaurant that we heard about. First of all, great service! The food is very good as well! I had the chicken fajita nachos! The environment is very family friendly! I Iike it and we will be back!
