The sauce was delicious with a medium level of spicy. They don't skip on the filling and even though I'm on a diet I devoured it. Everything was delicious and the berry margarita hit the spot! Trivia is going on it's been super entertaining. read more

A group of 6 went here for Cinco De Mayo. Place was packed. Our server was not at all friendly. Granted very busy day but still we felt very disconnected by him. Took half orders. We had to ask other servers for silverware, chips, and asked them to send our server by us several times. He was very occupied at the bar. Drinks were decent but $15 in plastic and not even filled to the top. Chips and salsa was delicious. Great taco salad. The last two girls waited over an hour or more for 1 taco and taco salad. I will go back just to see how it would be on a time not so crowded. Nice atmosphere. read more

I stopped in bc I was in the area. And kinda just been on a kick to find some good tacos. As everywhere I have been recently is below avg. my standard for tacos is from the motherland of Oaxaca. So it's hard to reach "good" for me. These are some good TACOS. I've only ordered tacos can't speak on anything else. Red sauce has great taste and some spice to it! I'd give these tacos a solid 8.1/10 read more

One Taco Dos Tequilas - Steak tacos - Mexican Near Me - Palatine, Illinois

I have visited and enjoyed this restaurant several times. Today was a bad day. The special was $3 for ala carte tacos so I ordered two vegetarian flour tacos They came out with street taco sized tortillas. I had asked for quac, cheese, pico and lettuce. The bill comes and I was charged an additional $1.50 per each taco for quac (1 tsp max) and 50 cents per taco for pico. What? I had no meat and these were very small tacos. My $3 tacos were $5 each. I was told that avocados are expensive but $1.50 per taco is more than excessive. Pico costing extra too? I tried discussing with server who stood firm in his logic. I should also add that the $14 ala carte burrito was blah - filled with rice and was just a burrito on a plate - nothing else. Way overpriced. I will not be back. read more

We came here on a whim and noticed the spicy restaurant. Really cute and great for those that are looking for insta photos. We ordered the Del Norte tacos and steak burrito. We both also ordered margaritas and extra sauces for our chips and meal. The chips and salsa were fresh, and they will replenish when you need more. There are three levels of sauces, mild, hot, really hot. The service was great as well, they are friendly and great to recommend folks on what to eat. Everything was delicious and the food was fantastic. read more

Wound up here as our original plan was too crowded. Sat at the bar and started with chips, salsa and queso with tequila shots (of course). Service was good and the tequila menu is pretty expansive. They happened to have trivia, so we played while we ate. Ordered a steak burrito which was good, but fairly average and expensive for what it was. read more

Went here for the first time and loved it. I had the carnitas taco dinner. The tacos were packed with meat. Very tasty and great service.

We usually carry out from here - as is generally really good. tonight was horrible...the shrimp with vegetables fajitas was steamed and the shirinp was rubbery....not grilled/or browned. Our chicken enchiladas was disappointing and the chicken quality was is quite bad and not the same. This was weird dark meat chicken bits read more

I like the food, but to be quite honest. I think it was overpriced for what we'd ordered. I was pregnant and I was really craving Mexican food. My husband went to this place and brought the menu with the order already. The food was good, but I don't think I will go here again. read more

I like this place, but my husband never does so I'm torn on what rating to provide. He's tried the chimichanga and the chile relleno taco dinner - he wasn't pleased with either and both left him feeling sick. I've had the shrimp taco dinner and the enchiladas verdes - definitely preferred the enchiladas but I thought they were both good. So the place - the vibe is very cool, but it's clear they are under staffed. The staff is doing the best they can and they do provide good service, but the place is a mess and it's hard to find a clean table anywhere. They are obviously doing something right though - the place was packed when we were there last. I'd say this is a good addition to Palatine, but they do have some work to do before they become my go-to Mexican spot. read more

We dined here this evening and had a wonderful time. First off I was impressed that they were open during a blizzard. When we sat down our waiter, Dennis, greeted us. He was super helpful and very friendly. I had the Lomo Tacos and my wife had the Veggie Fajitas. Both were delicious. Pro tip the have a happy hour special from 3-5. 1/2 off drinks and select appetizers. read more

Have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got around to it. First things first - while I cannot drink currently, they have a wide selection of tequilas (as they should with it being in the name haha!) and lots of other mixed drinks you could order. I ordered the enchiladas verdes with chicken which were super tasty and filling! My husband got the carne asada and it was truly some of the most tender and juicy asada that I've had. I'd come back just for this! Our friend got the enchiladas de mole with a different meat in each (chicken, steak, pork) and said the al pastor (pork) was the best one. He also said that the mole was a really great mole. The place itself is spacious and there's a bar when you first walk in and seating off to the left of the restaurant. It also appears they have slot machines to the right of the restaurant. My only true dislike of the meal was the tres leches cake which was nowhere what a tres leches should be. It truly either was lacking all the milk or they gave us a slice that had been sitting in the fridge for days and had dried up. Presentation was beautiful but it was not a tres leches slice. My husband and his friend thought it was okay for just a regular cake slice and ate most of it. I like my tres leches soggy so didn't really touch it after a couple bites. Overall, would skip dessert next time and just stick to our meals because they were the stars of the show! read more

This was my 8th time having food from this establishment. I have carried out a few times, had my food delivered a few times and have also dined in on several occasions. I chose to dine in with several of my friends on this night. The place is a nice establishment, nice atmosphere, but out of the 8 times I had food from here only ONE time has my order been correct. No matter how many times you repeat exactly what you want and it is even repeated back to you, the communication between the wait staff and the kitchen is something to be desired. I am a CKD patient and have many dietary restrictions which the waiter was well aware of. When my food came out, it had veggies in it that I am not allowed to have and these veggies are not even listed on the menu to be part of this selection. Highly disappointed that when your food comes out you have to be picking through it to remove everything that you are not allowed to have, not to mention wasteful. My dish contained more of what I am not allowed than what I was able to eat. The waiter came over and saw me picking through my dish removing the broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower, again no mention of these veggies on the menu with this particular dish and apologized for the mistake and told me he would take care of me. He explained to me that they were busy, which is not a valid excuse when you are paying the prices of things nowadays. When the check was brought to our table I saw that a mere 3 or 4 dollars was subtracted off of my bill for an error on your part . When I complained about my order being wrong several of the other times I received what I did not order I was told by the waitstaff the next time I came in I would be taken care of and they didn't even bother to ask for my name or any other information, so I never even took advantage of that as I am sure there would have been issues so I just let all of those other times go. After 8 times with incorrect orders, this place will be taken off of my list and I will not come here anymore or recommend this place to anyone else. There are many other Mexican restaurants in Palatine that I have been to that don't mess up orders, so I will frequent them instead. I wanted to like this place, but after this many mistakes, I find it very difficult to do so. I can only imagine what it would be like if someone read more

I try not to write highly neg reviews but went there few months back and it was marginal at best but the take out the other night was APPALLING. The worst ever. Quesadillas? Hardly any filling and the grease taste was terrible. 2 burrito dinners and one taco dinner. Inedible. Burrito had about no filling, the taste of oil is still on my tongue and choked down less than 1/2 of one - the rest? Into the dumper. My poor wife tried to the taco but gave up. Ate about 1/3 of one and joined the burritos in the garbage pail. All of this disaster for a mere $111. Nope. We're done. read more

Everything was good; food, service, and ambiance but too pricey. Just for a burrito itself was $14 and liked that you can choose different meats for the taco dinner. Also, business needs to update prices on menu. Loved the salsa and chips. read more

Our first time here... so delicious! I can highly recommend everything we tried: queso fundito w/chorizo, enchiladas w/molé and steak fajitas, as well as the traditional and spicy margaritas. The quality ribeye definitely put the fajitas a notch above average. The mole was probably the best I've had in years... smoky, spicy, not overly sweet. Even the lowly beans and rice deserve a mention for being so flavorful. Although they were quite busy, the service was friendly, efficient and didn't feel rushed. We loved the lively soundtrack too. We will definitely be back! read more

How about putting some actual steak in the burrito!!! Filled with rice which should not even be inside of the burrito but on the side if you order it that way. Nothing but cheap filler for a $25 burrito. Very disappointing and will never order from here again. read more

Love the food, drinks and staff... but twice now the food has taken forever to get. Ruins an otherwise good experience.

Oh yea! We be going back for $2 Tuesday Tacos but it wasn't Tuesday & we were hungry! Now, we love tequila & have travelled all over but have never ever seen a restaurant with this many tequilas to offer! Really ... I think you could have 1 every different day for a year ... no kidding. And food - great - tasty, hot & yummy! Plus we are fussy about our food. The chips wer ok - they had 3 types of salsa - plain, green & really spicy (all were great). The service was excellent too! Yup - we will be back! By the way ... the place was really clean, the renovations to this spot were excellent (we've been to places here before) ... and the bar setup was kind of unique! Next time I will take a foto of that too. read more

One Taco Dos Tequilas - Side Fries - Mexican Near Me - Palatine, Illinois

Takeout falls short... they make mistakes often and you can't drive back to have them fixed Not worth the price. The food is decent, it's fresh but lacks a lot of flavor. They could cook the fajita veggies longer, they were almost raw. Asked for extra shrimp and didn't get any, although I was charged for it. Also they forgot to include any side sauces and the guacamole that was supposed to come on the side - kind of a big overlook. When I called to complain they just said "thank you for the feedback." Too many mistakes by the employee putting together takeout. Be warned. read more

When I rate restaurants, I base them off many factors. Service, food quality, atmosphere, and pricing. The service left much to be desired. Upon receiving the typical chips and salsa from one of the staff, our party requested an order of guacamole. We were met by a rude response of "you'll have to ask your server when he gets to you". Strike 1. The food was of high quality, and was actually quite delicious, though one of our 4 meals was not hot coming out of the kitchen, meals did not come out together, and one of the orders, which was ordered very specifically, was not correct. This would be expected at an establishment that was busy, but we were one of 4 seated tables with no other customers in sight. Strike 2. Atmosphere was.... Interesting to say the very least. The wall we were seated against had faux grass, with a large neon-like (probably LED) sign, which if seated facing the wall, will likely provide you with quite a headache, as it did me. It was incredibly bright, and really took away from the aesthetic of a Mexican restaurant. The music was also quite loud and the only thing that made it bearable was the fact that they have a TouchTunes jukebox that could be controlled. No strike, but also not impressed. Pricing was on point for a restaurant that's not getting much business. Otherwise, it was quite high. Over $150 for 4 adult meals, 2 beers, and a margarita. Yikes. Strike 3. Oh! Almost forgot. We tried to eat here on New Year's Eve, we arrived at 5:45pm and were turned away as they were closing at 7:00pm. The restaurant was about as busy as it was tonight.... Not busy at all. read more

Food was tasty. Margaritas were average but they have a very long list of tequila options. Draft beer was super cold and they had a decent selection. Chips were warm but I'd prefer to see them make their own. It hey are still working out the kinks since they are fairly new and short staffed due to Covid. Place has potential if they get the staff in shape and DIM THE LIGHTS! read more

One Taco Dos Tequilas - Tequila list! - Mexican Near Me - Palatine, Illinois

The food here was very interesting, and I was kind of taken away from the fact that the tacos were not really the type of shell consistency I wanted or expected from a corn taco. The energy was kind of lacking within the seasoning in my opinion. read more

When I write a review it's based on service, food quality, cleanliness, pricing, and staff demeanor. My daughter and I came in for the first time. It looked very clean and newer. upon reading the menu I was initially turned off at the fact that they don't offer combination platters and certain Mexican dishes that are the norm at other Mexican venues. The prices stood out as high. Being that we're in post Covid times I understood but also expected portions to match those higher prices. My daughter ordered enchilada Suiza's ($16.00). They came out in a timely manner. I was told that mine will be right up. Her portions looked average and seemed to be good in taste. I ordered the Carne Asada burrito dinner ($17.00). I had to wait an extra six minutes for mine for some reason. It arrived and it was tiny. I mean small. The steak was gray, chewy, bland and cold. For $17 I expect a large portioned burrito such as Tacos El Norte in Lake Zurich. Which about $4 less in price and more portions served with the rice and beans. We also ordered two bottles of Mexican Coke. The 12 oz size. $4.00 each! Come on! All in all our bill was $45 and change. The service was not bad (aside from my extra wait) and the waiter was friendly. But, one shouldn't have to wait six minutes longer for a meal than the person you're with. Unfortunately I don't think we'll be coming back anytime soon. I know this is a newer establishment and I hope they find their way to improve. read more
