    Working in Terre Haute and this is my go to when I come to town. Love this place. The people are great, the food is always delicious, the atmosphere is always comfortable, there is no real noise level which is super nice after working all day and all you want to do is have a couple beers and some really great food.

    Looking for a great Mexican meal in Terre Haute, Indiana? Check out Taco Tequila's located near Indiana State University! I ordered the Fajita Tequilas with steak, chicken, and shrimp served with rice & beans. The meat was seasoned to perfection and the vegetables were noticeably fresh. The chips are light and the salsa is mild and smooth. The prices are affordable. Staff was friendly and quick. Highly recommend this Mexican restaurant in Terre Haute!

    Tacos and margs with the bestie ! We found ourselves at Taco Tequila's Mexican Grill & Cantina last night ! I got the beef skirt tacos and a strawberry margarita ! There wasn't much of a strawberry taste in my drink... My friend and I joked that they gave me her share of the tequila. But the tacos were to die for ! Very flavorful. Spiced perfectly and cooked well. The staff was very friendly and the environment was clean. We didn't have to wait long for our food at all !

    Tilapia Veracruz was amazing

    This place is a little off the highway, if you're traveling but it's so worth it. We ordered the seafood soup, tilapia veracruz and the Carne asada street tacos. Everything was excellent but the tilapia was the best I've ever had. The restaurant is clean and the service was impeccable. We were also able to eat outside which was a nice break from being in the truck.

    In the last two weeks I found myself traveling to Terre Haute for business and each time I stopped here to eat. I don't typically revisit restaurants but I found the fish Ceviche to taste awesome here. The large order was more than enough for one person and could be even ordered as an appetizer to share with a large table. Each time I had visit the restaurant I was eating with few colleagues and their food looked great as well. I would recommend getting steak nachos. The order we got to share was very tasty. The place has a full bar and offers many different drinks and beers. Both times the service was good and food came out within 15 minutes of ordering except for the Ceviche which took little longer.

    We had dinner at the Shelburn location. Everything was absolutely excellent. The building is beautiful. The staff was amazing. And the food was superior above some others in our area. We will now be regulars.

    Used Yelp search to find a restaurant as we passing thru Terre Haute(on I70) and found The…read moreTerminal Public House. Looked at several of the reviews and knew it was a place to visit. The building itself is over a 100 years old and is on the National Register of Historic Places, this helps its cool vibe. We came in at 12:30 on a December Thursday, it was absolutely packed, what appeared to be multiple team/holiday gatherings. We were told a 20 minute wait, but we eventually were able to find a seat at the bar in less time. With as busy as it was, I was concerned food coming out may be impacted, but it came out quick. Allie was our bar tender, she was very friendly and attentive, shout out to her. First I started with a local beer, wango tango. I would call it a hazy pale ale. It was perfect for me. Had grilled shishito peppers. It was my first time to ever eat one, I loved them. I enjoyed them better without the sauce, but the wasabi Mayo did provide a nice kick. I ate the fried wontons with the sauce. We shared the crab Rangoon flatbread. It did not disappoint, and had a healthy serving size. I would get it again and again! Then I went with a comfort food, fried bologna sandwich. It came with a side, but the sandwhich alone was enough. I added a close pic of the sandwich, it had two thick cut pieces of meat. Impressive. It came with melted cheese, that was a twist for me, but I wanted to try it the way it was on the menu first. I eventually added ketchup, lol. We now have a new place to stop as we're passing by on 70. If I lived closer, i definitely would be a regular!!!

    We had a great experience! Good service, nice atmosphere and good food. I had the meat loaf…read moresandwich with mashed potatoes, hubby had a wedge salad and onion rings. Everything was tasty!

My husband and brother enjoyed the beer they tried. I enjoyed the atmosphere. They have popcorn and games to play. They have a cat who seems to love there. It's kid and dog friendly and just an overall nice place to spend an afternoon. The bartender was very friendly as were the other patrons. I was so happy to see this place and the memorabilia throughout. Highly recommend it to anyone. They have an outdoor patio that I hear is packed in the summer! We'll definitely return!

I'm not a guy who has a sophisticated palate that tastes notes of Madagascaran pine nuts or hints of organic apricot. I just like the beer or I don't. Afterburner is veteran owned local brewery. They don't have food inside but there was a food truck parked out front. The facility is rather large but their beer menu is pretty small. When I went they had 5 beers, 2 ciders and 3 wines on tap. There is also a fenced in area outside with picnic tables so you can let your pets or children off their leash. I had a standard 4 beer flight (just samples here so same thing without the board). I got their Nunquam Fractum (wheat beer), Unscoreable (pale Ale), Midnight (double Imperial Stout) and Mach (hazy IPA). All were solid but the Mach was great. My only criticism is I'd like to see a few more beer styles on the menu and I wish their sticker had their name and location (I'm a nerd with a brewery sticker wall in the garage). Other than those little critiques, it's an awesome place

    feels like a place trying to be everything at once--and unfortunately not doing any one thing…read moreparticularly well. It's part college bar, part live music venue, part sports bar with golf simulators, and part wing/grill restaurant. The concept sounds fun on paper, but in practice it comes across dated and unfocused. The food was the biggest disappointment. I went in expecting solid bar food--nothing fancy, just reliable wings and fried staples. What arrived was inconsistent at best. Two wings were undercooked, and one wasn't even battered on one side. At first I assumed it was frozen food quality, but it honestly felt more like a lack of kitchen consistency and oversight. If you're hungry, the food is edible, but it's not something I'd go out of my way for. Service didn't help the experience. The bartender spent a noticeable amount of time sitting at a table socializing rather than checking on guests, which made the place feel inattentive despite not being overwhelmingly busy. The atmosphere clearly caters to the college crowd, and to be fair, I can see why students would enjoy it--drinks, music, and a casual hangout spot. It's probably not going out of business anytime soon because it fills that niche. But if you're expecting a polished sports bar, quality grill food, or a standout dining experience, this likely won't meet those expectations. After reading other reviews, the "hit or miss" reputation seems accurate. My recommendation: stop in for a beer first. If the vibe is good that night, stay. If not, cash out and move on. If wings are your goal, there are better options in town. Overall, not terrible--but definitely lackluster and not a destination spot.
