Casa Tequila

Food - The food here was really good. I tried the chicken tortilla soup and enjoyed the inclusion of avocado chunks in this dish. The chips & guac my mom and I shared tasted good too, and I didn't even get tired of avocado by my entree. My mom also let me try some of her chicken fajitas, which made for good "leftovers".

Service - Food got out to the table very quickly. It looked like the restaurant may have had designated food runners, at least on that particular night, to help expedite the process.

Ambiance - It was busy when my mom and I went, on Valentines Day. The glimpses I got of the decor looked good though, I especially liked the water fountain in the middle of the seating area.

We had not been to this restaurant in some time and decided to give it another try with a large party. The service was attentive, but there was a major language barrier that made ordering difficult. I felt sorry for the server, as he was trying his best to understand our elementary Spanish speaking skills. He sought the manager to assist with our order and we thought our order was correct. Once the food came out our order was wrong and we had limited time to have it corrected. The food was decent, but we were not overly impressed considering 3/6 courses were not what we ordered.

Would I go back? Probably, but would double check my order first. My dad really likes their spicy margaritas so it wasn't a total bust.

Very generous and flavorful helpings. The margarita was stronger than I was ready for
Excellent prices and even though they were extremely busy when we got there, service was quick and thorough.

With the rising cost of living, it is difficult to find a restaurant for lunch under $10 and be full. It is almost impossible to find a restaurant where both lunch and dinner cost less than $10. But through Casa Tequila, everything is possible.

The lunch entrees at Casa Tequila come in huge portion that I would end up eating it for both lunch and dinner. This is what I did for the chimichanga lunch, the tequila bowl lunch, Pollo El Queso lunch. All these lunch entrees are delicious, with the Tequila bowl lunch being my favorite because it has rice, black beans, and grilled chicken. Lunch entrees also come with chips and salsa that to go order comes in a big paper bag. They really give you so much food that it's impossible for one person to finish it all in one sitting, making it of the most valued restaurants.

Dan and I got steak lunch fajitas. The tortillas were the best part, and possibly the only good part of the meal. They appeared to be homemade and were extremely good. An inadequate serving of fajita meat came on a huge plate of onions, green and orange bell pepper, and tomatoes. The steak lacked flavor and the vegetables tasted like stewed vegetables. I think that's because the tomato added liquid. The guacamole and sour cream were served on a large bed of lettuce. The inadequate portions of guacamole and sour cream were served on a large plate of shredded lettuce. Both the guac and sour cream had a very thin consistency and sank into the lettuce.

The servers worked very hard, especially the runners, who did literally run much of the time. I don't know how they keep going at that pace. It was entertaining watching the runners carry multiple plates lined up on their arms from wrist to shoulder. I don't know how they do it without dropping dishes. They are quite skilled. We had trouble getting what we needed because of their division of labor. The runner forgot the tortillas and plates and we had trouble getting someone's attention. As soon as we were able to get attention, they brought our plates and tortillas quickly.

The restaurant is elaborately decorated. I would describe the ambiance as busy rather than relaxing. That's because of the runners having to hurry so fast. I tend to prefer a relaxing atmosphere when I dine.

Casa Tequila charges for credit cards. I understand that restaurants are charged by the credit card companies and they have to pass the cost on to their customers, but we've become accustomed to restaurants rolling that expense into their prices. It's inconvenient to pay cash at restaurants. We seldom carry cash, any more, and it's more difficult to leave the exact amount we want to tip. Obviously, it's difficult for the restaurant to make correct change, too. The server just rounded our change to the dollar and didn't give us our coin change. It wasn't enough for it to be worth our time asking for the coins. We could pay the credit card fee. The fee was actually less than what it cost us having to leave a higher tip because we didn't have the right change and not getting all our change back. We could pay the fee, but we tend to just avoid restaurants that charge credit card fees.

This resturant serves great tacos, and the chips and salsa are great. We had a great server names Anthony and he even gave us chips and salsa to take home. He was awesome. My friend got the enchilada and really liked it.

This place is our go to Mexican restaurant in town and we've tried at least 20 others. Always consistently great experience & food. My wife always gets the Chile Verde cause it's amazing. This visit I got enchiladas, YUM. Also,hands down THE best rice ever. Obviously, we are coming back as long as they're open. Sit in Carlos' section, he's awesome. Oh, one more thing, the Mexcal margarita is the most amazing I've ever had. Try it but be warned, it's potent.

Hot hot hot I don't think the AC is working, they had fans but with the miserable heat outside then hot and stuffy inside, order to go for now!!! The appetizer was mix of ceviche and aguachiles, pretty good but needed more flavor - marinate a lil longer. Mango ceviche was my fav!!!! Mmmmm good! Steak burrito was massive and beans and rice. The queso pollo was big plate and looked yummy. Chips and salsa fresh never stale! Server was good although had to ask for drink refill, there were some annoying flies too gggrrr. Parking is always tight here so good luck finding a spot. Most likely order to go next time!

This used to be my favorite restaurant, but now they've dramatically raised the price of the fajitas and they want to charge me 58 cents for two tortillas when they only send two in the first place? Forget it, I'll find a different restaurant

Everything was so good!! I'd definitely go back!!! The chimichanga is amazing!! I was too full to try the sopapillas but based on how amazing the tortilla on the chimichanga was I just know it's worth another trip SOON!!

Chips are nice and thick with just the right kick on the salsa.

10/10 recommend

The drinks weren't as smooth as I'd like but they were good and as you can see they are a great size. The margarita menu is huge so have fun with it! I'll try frozen next.
