Just discovered a great Mexican restaurant in the Outer Banks, NC named 3 Tequilas Restaurant! They have a vibrant ambiance inside and every bite gives you authentic Mexican flavors! You MUST try the Fajitas for Two and the Jalapeño margarita was top-notch! And the service? Impeccable! Definitely a must-visit spot for anyone craving delicious Mexican cuisine! If you're in the OBX craving amazing food, drinks, and service, look no further than 3 Tequilas!

Probably the best Mexican restaurant in the Outer Banks. First of all, there was no wait to get a table on a Thursday evening, even though the place was busy. They seemed to be well-staffed with friendly and courteous people. Food wait was very reasonable. The beer was cold and the food was delicious. Table chips and salsa was a bit overly salty for my liking, but I think that is on purpose ;)For my meal I had the carne asada. Delicious tender pieces of steak and all the fixings. The rice and beans were tasty too. The corn tortilla's were fresh. We also had the vegan tacos which were very good and used a seasoned jackfruit. Parking very plentiful and it's right on the main strip.

In the Kill Devil Hills area we were struggling to find some diversity in our food. We found 3 Tequilas a few miles from our hotel so we decided to stop in for dinner. There was no wait and we were sat immediately. Our waiter greeted us and provided us with complimentary chips and salsa. When we inquired about a less spicy salsa for our toddler they were able to provide a milder salsa. The prices here are reasonable and the portions are large. I ordered the enchiladas with carne and my wife ordered a salad. Our biggest gripe with the restaurant was once we were served our food the server never really came back to check on us. We had an error with our meal and the server had to step back to ask the kitchen if they could make an accommodation for us. He then returned and we had to wait another 10-15 minutes for the right dish. All in all, it took over 20 minutes for my wife to get her proper meal.Normally, I would get up and find the server myself but the restaurant is huge and he was nowhere to be found. I'm also comparing my experience with DMV restaurants where we are all about speed and efficiency. I would definitely come back again, especially if you are sick of BBQ sandwiches or bar food.

Went to this fine establishment today. Was craving some Mexican foot and came across 3 Tequilas. The staff was very friendly and nice and was fast with helping us and getting us settled and food in. A lot of different food and drink options. Decided to try the chimichanga Texan and it was sooooo good. For 4 people who got entrees and 3 sodas and 1 water, our bill was around $68. Which wasn't bad for all the food amount we got. Oh also they give you chips and salsa when you sit down. Definitely would eat here again when we come back down

Waited 2 hours for our food that was poorly seasoned and over cooked. The service was OK otherwise. Ordered: The corn appetizer - this was decent but under seasoned Texas fajitas - over cooked and under seasonedSteak burritos - lacking in substance and underseasoned chicken tender kids meal - tenders were good but the fries tasted like you found them in the backseat of your moms minivan two days after you ate McDonald's.

Came here for taco Tuesday! Although no one actually got tacos. We got seated right away and ordered table side guac. That guac could make someone who doesn't like guac into a believer!! SO GOOD! We ordered margs and they were HUGE. Tasted okay not the best I've ever had. No one was super impressed with their drink. Just average.I ordered the pina loka and after stuffing my face with chips and margherita, I was pretty full but I pushed through!! Rice was crazy good and the food was cooked well and displayed beautifully in the pineapple. Really big restaurant and the people were friendly. Would go back again.

Celebrated Cinco De Mayo here! We arrived about 6pm and waited a little over and hour for our party of 4 to be seated. The restaurant is much larger than it looks from the outside, they brought us around to some booths near the bar. Within a minute of seating, the waiter came for our drink order, we weren't quite ready, but feeling rushed, we ordered 3 house margaritas and a beer-ita. We saw on Facebook that the margaritas were $5 for cinco de mayo, however, neither the waiter or the website stated that was for the small margaritas and the default order is for large. We ordered table side guacamole, and each got a different entree. They didn't end up making the guacamole next to our table and the brought it out with the rest of the entrees as opposed to before. It had no seasonings and the avacodo was very large pieces, we personally didn't enjoy it or eat much of it. For entree, I got the Pina Loka, it was actually very good and a unique menu item! I'm sure this place is usually pretty good and has good service, it's just hard to tell based on the busiest day of the year.

Relatively generic Mexican restaurant decor but the food is delicious, the portions are generous, the queso and the guacamole are fabulous and the drinks (at least the Margherita) is quite large and very tasty. I imagine if you're looking for Mexican food you will not come away disappointed!

Environment/Service/Food/PortionIt's a nice rustic looking Mexican Restaurant. The waitress was really nice, she give us an excellent service. We told her we were ready to order. Our food came out real quick.I was undecided what to order. I was in the mood for some tacos . So, I was looking through the menu and decided to order the Baja Fish Tacos. They were delicious! We enjoyed our visit.

I have been meaning to try them out. Finally a friend said-2:30... 3 of us at 3 tequilas.. 2 of us did not order drinks but one had the best margarita he'd ever tasted.. Lunch specials are very reasonably priced... The important stuff--the food was great--And the service, talk about smiles and friendly people....There is business nice and then there is people loving nice.... Everyone was people loving nice.. I have to go back to my new friends because there are a bunch of plates on the menu I want to try...
