In my opinion, the food here is kind of subpar. Our table ordered nachos (with beef), a chicken quesadilla, a lindo burrito (with steak) and enchiladas. The drinks were good according to my friends (I didn't order a drink however), but we all felt the food was just ok. My friend was the one who suggested this place and even she said the quesadilla didn't taste that great. She's had better experiences here. My burrito was ok. It had the right amount of crispy in the tortilla itself which I appreciated, but the insides were just meh. I still think I liked it the most out of all the stuff we ordered which is clearly saying a lot. My friend's enchiladas were not good at all IMO. He said he didn't really care for them much either. I dunno - with the amount of Mexican options in this area, I don't think I'd really return given my experience. The space inside is honestly cozy and the dim lighting adds a nice effect. I think maybe I'd just return for the vibes and drinks, but not go out of my way here for the food. There is a patio in the front during the warmer months which I'm sure is a nice vibe! read more

The food and service are consistently great. The drinks and food are both good. Their frozen margaritas are the best.

Chips and salsa good. Ordered a steak burrito with everything added cheese on top. Soppy soggy mess. The meat even tasted gamey. Immediately threw it in the garbage. Never again. read more

Nice people but underwhelming and overpriced for what you get. I had the chicken mole and the chicken was a smallish thin chopped slab of fairly hard strips, not several pieces of tender chicken on the bone as is more typical at any other Mexican restaurant. The mole sauce was okay--not particularly flavorful. Rice was bland with dried out peas. Annoyingly the corn torillas were extremely greasy on both sides of each tortilla making this pretty messy to eat. The tortillas you get on the side with an entree should never be greasy like this. read more

Came here on Cinco de Mayo and they were slammed. Surprisingly we didn't wait long for a table. I would come back again for Elotes and Margarita. I got the Pink Cadillac Margaritas and was very pleased with the taste and strenght of the liquor. For food I got tacos dinner with beans & rice. Overall a nice dinner on the patio. Very much enjoyed the live entertainment and singing as a cherry of top of the evening. read more

Delicious food & kind service!!! Cute atmosphere inside. I would definitely recommend!

This restaurant had some of the best Mexican food I've ever had!! We had burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, a torta, and a few appetizers with a large group and everything was fantastic! So many layers of flavors in all the dishes. The younger people in our group had some drinks and enjoyed those too! If you want authentic Mexican cuisine with colorful and inviting decor, don't hesitate to go to Tacos Tequila! I will definitely be back! read more

Friendly staff, fantastic tacos, and huge pitchers of margaritas for the price. We ordered a pitcher for the two of us and it's really meant for 3 or maybe even 4 people despite the price making it seem like there's only 2 or 3 servings in it - spoiler: there's a lot more. The ceviche was really good, as was every single taco that came out of the kitchen. Definitely try the churros for dessert - it might not sound like that great of an option just from reading it but it was really worth it. read more

What an unassuming and hidden gem! There are so few places where you can try Molcajete and theirs is SO good! If you get sides, it will feed 3 people. A very generous portion of beef, chicken, cheese and stewed cactus. Since this dish is so authentic, I will be back to try more at this spot! read more

The tacos were overpriced. Nothing special. 1 cup of guacamole was $13! The salsas are okay. The cocktails were good, not heavy on alcohol. The venue, is not what Insta shows. It is very small and dark. Service was okay. Friendly. If you're in the area and want to have small overpriced tacos, stop by. read more

We came here to try out their tacos. I was a little concerned at first, because the place was empty with only one other party dining in. I felt the server a little pushy at first asking if we wanted any drinks for appetizers such as queso fundido to start. We ordered some water and their elotes to start, and he appeared a bit bothered that we didn't order more. My wife ordered their taco dinner which came with three tacos and rice and beans. On the menu it states that all three tacos have to be the same meat, they were nice enough to allow us to order three different meats. She ordered, Tripas, carne Asada and fish. The Tripas were tasty and the fish taco wasnt great and didn't taste fresh. I ordered their Asada, al pastor and lengua. The lengua and al pastor were very tasty. The al pastor had a delicious marinade and came with pineapple. The Asada, however lacked flavor. The elotes we ordered at the beginning were also not great. The corn was very soggy and obviously boiled. When you have these sitting in water for a long time, they tend to lose all their flavor. You're basically biting into water. They then gave you a side of chili powder to put on the elotes. But unfortunately it wasn't chili. They used tajin which gave the elotes to much of a citrus flavor. Perhaps if they grill them instead of boiling them, it will definitely enhance the flavor. With so much computation I'm not quite sure if I'd return anytime soon. They were a little pricey for what you're actually getting, so only time will tell. read more

Service wasn't the best. Food was worse. Ordered the steak and beef tripe tacos. I asked what tripe was and his response was short and annoyed I asked. His response was "it's tripe" and that I would like them. No mention of cows stomach lining. Steak tacos weren't bad but nothing special especially for the price. My girlfriend ordered fish tacos and they were extremely fishy and not edible. Also you have to pay for chips and salsa. Super expensive and not worth it. read more

Ordered: chile relleno, carne tampiquena, and the Elote's. Chilean Relleno was true to traditional recipe and really delivered on the cheese. The carne was seasoned and cooked just right, paired with the Chile is hits. The mole enchilada was a bonus and the mole had great flavor. Only criticism was the elote, they need to more butter dripped on it and to switch out tajin for chili powder. The black beans were especially delicious and the rice came out good too. Overall I'd come back again for sure. Happy to have written this review because they definitely deserve a good word. Bonus add: La música que tenían durante lunch estuvo muy buena también! read more

I'm going to start my review by cutting to the chase. "Tacos Tequilas" is one of the most expensive neighborhood Mexican restaurants I have dined in. However, why did I render four (4) stars still? The young man who served our entire table was friendly, patient, and accommodating. The food was on a par with its quality in my opinion. I really wished the price for each appetizer and entree could be at least $2-$3 less. Our office had a joint crew night and one of the managers recommended this place. I must say I wasn't completely impressed after perusing the menu. What? They charged tampiquena for $22.50! I remembered the competition on Belmont Ave., for the same entree, was under $15 or so. I eventually made up my mind with tilapia poblano ($14.95, as of 04/17/2019). The size was appropriate for my hunger level. The fish was flaky. I also enjoyed the poblano sauce, yet it could use a little more garlic and lemon to enhance the overall flavor and tanginess. I thought the guacamole was delicious, but the portion size was quite disappointing for what we paid for. $8.95 was almost considered a borderline rip-off. Many of my co-workers ordered the margarita and other alcoholic beverages. Fortunately and unfortunately at the same time, I have made a conscious decision to cut down my alcohol consumption. I would say having the liquor license gives "Tacos Tequilas" an advantage for making a plenty of extra bucks on booze. With that being said, individuals who are accustomed to pairing alcohol with their meals will probably like what TT has to offer. Our party consisted of 10+ people and a few of us arrived late. The young man server didn't rush us at all and answered some picky eaters' questions with poise. He also graciously comped one of the girls' coctel de camaron since she didn't realize this was a cold appetizer. All in all, his customer service was great in handling everyone's request. I personally don't think "Tacos Tequilas" is a standout due to inflated prices. Others may disagree with me, but I shall remain indifferent. read more

Wow! First time here and we were blown away by the service provided by Gustavo and Jorge and the rest of the staff. We had a pitcher of margarita with Don Julio and we were Leary about them because we really can appreciate a good margarita, but to our surprise! It was so great!! We also ordered steak, cochinita pibil tacos, elotes, and torta Árabe. To our amazement the cochinita pibil tacos were so delicious and so flavorful. My husband even made a comment and asked if it was possible to fall in love with a taco. I said yes! And with that I will leave you all with the must try here at Taco Tequilas. The top shelf margaritas and cochinita pibil. We definitely will be back! Thank you to the great service provided by Gustavo and Jorge and the rest of this amazing staff! We will see you soon! read more

a quaint restaurant with authentic delicious Mexican food. !!the wait staff is friendly, the ambiance is relaxing and cozy

Absolutely delicious!!! The molcajete , choriqueso , and tamales were amazing! I will be coming back!

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon a few other people were there eating...started off with Chips and Salsa, chips were warm and salsa was excellent, ordered a couple beers they were Nice and cold, then ordered the Taco dinner plate 3 steak tacos, rice and beans also ordered the Enchilada Indigenas Three rolled tortillas with mashed potatoes, mushroom in green roasted tomatillo and guajillo salsa, Cheese and cream....Absolutely Delicious The best Enchiladas I've ever had! The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is I felt rushed, the waitress did not ask if we wanted another Drink or Dessert just came with the check. If I am going out for lunch that is going to cost me $80 for 2 people I want to hang out longer then 45 minutes. As I said early there was only a few other people in the resturant. Also the place is looking a little old...table was wobbly, my plate was chipped. read more

I have been here twice and I must say I love it! The lady who served me both times was very kind and the food was good. (Bathrooms aren't the best) Would definitely recommend! read more

The overall quality of Mexican food available in Logan Square and Hermosa has really declined over the past few years. This place is the exception. I've tried all of their taco dinners and chicken tamales (my sons favorite). Flavor flavor flavor! Great salsas. Delicious and fresh chips. I've almost given up on going out for tacos after this past year of eating so many bland and poorly prepared tacos with low quality ingredients at the 7 or 8 Mexican restaurants open in the area. This place is keeping me hopeful that I don't have to cook every dinner at home. During an era where tacos at most places are way over priced for you get--this place is worth the money. read more

I wish it was acceptable to obnoxiously grito in public because this almost brought it out of me! If you love your tacos hot and fresh, and your margaritas plentiful with tequila, this is the place for you!!! The servers are so sweet and are happy to review the menu with you. I absolutely love the decor and inner wall covered with famous Mexican public figures from Frida to top musicians. Chips and salsa were promptly brought to the table with our water, and we received our food in no time at all! Great place for good vibes and amazing eats. Pro tip...

The food was really good and the service was nice when I went to go pick up my food. However, I wasn't a fan of their black beans neither was my wife. I got the chicken torta and my wife got the mole enchiladas., and they where both great. The manager, a short bald guy, wasn't very nice, but the server was good. There are of course better places with better prices but I'll take it. read more

Place is solid. Picked up from here, got pretty much everything on the menu. Highlights were steak burrito, and the Mexican sausage tacos. Both were very good, tasty, meat was not chewy. Black beans and rice were good as well. Fish and chicken tacos were solid. Only negatives were guacamole and empanadas. Guacamole lacked flavor and the empanadas were filled with more air than stuffing. read more

Great food. Everything is great but the mole and ceviche are must haves. Drinks are also excellent.

Have to say first and foremost the service was excellent! The food was just ok and nothing I would go out of my way for. My partner raved about this place initially but she agreed that it did not match her initial experience at all. Unfortunately any of the fried items- had the toxic oil taste which usually indicates it's time to change the oil. We enjoyed our margaritas and were even able to take them to go! The salsas were eh. Chips were eh. Personally would not go out of my like I said, but if I craved a margarita, I would stop by if in the area. read more

I have been trying to get hear with some friends and we finally got to meet there. Once I walked in I already had a good feeling about the place. Pretty cool cozy looking with all of their paintings and pictures on the wall, all Mexican theme. We got seated right away and we ordered our drinks. They suggested to try the Diabilto, which was absolutely delicious and I think I drink about four of them haha! They brought some chips and salsas to the table and the chips were very freshly homemade there so they were really good. Also ordered for an appetizer the empanadas that were lightly fried with veggies and yummy! Then we had a round of tequila shots before we ordered our entrees to work up a good appetite, right?‍ I had the carne asada steak dinner which came with fried plantains, guacamole and black beans. The steak was cooked to perfection and was a nice cut of juicy beef with no fat at all. I really enjoyed the dinner. For dessert we had some churros glazed with some chocolate sauce! Yummalicious! Look forward to coming back and trying a different dish. read more

Good vibe when you see this place. It looks modern and a hip place when you enter and see the crowd. I went with a buddy after work to grab a burrito. The Lindo Burritos were pretty good. I got mine with steak and my buddy with al pastor. We both liked them. They have us a green salsa and red salsa. We both thought the red salsa was better tasting. The green salsa had a weird taste that we couldn't figure out what it was. The guacamole was decent but I like mine more chunky. Price seems higher then other places but it's a nice place and service is ok. Place was packed so obviously people like it there. read more

Solid spot to get tacos! Definitely pricier then other taco joints in the area but the markup is also providing a nice dining atmosphere that you don't really get from the established dinosaurs in the area. The location is a little away from Milwaukee Avenue prime, but it's close enough to feel like you've discovered a cozy hot spot. The chips always come out warm and crispy and the salsa that comes out with it (not the ones in the squeeze bottles on the table) is seriously so amazing that I want to drink it. Seems like there's been some whining about the chips and salsa not being comped but I'm willing to pay for an order at this level of quality. Think about it, the places that serve them free, the quality is kinda shitty no? As far as drinks, pass on the overly sweet margarita and get the one with mezcal. For vegetarian tacos, the nopales (cactus) taco is my favorite. read more

Their margaritas are really good and strong. ;) Need I say more? I always stop here when I need a margarita on the go.

This place was delicious! I found the restaurant on TikTok (lol) and was excited to go based on the review. The service was amazing and the food was even better. I had the steak torta and I will say that this was probably the best torta I've had to date. My cousin got the quesadilla and as a picky eater, I was concerned if she would enjoy it, but she said it was really great! Outside of the food, the chips and salsa was really tasty and the drinks were STRONG. I enjoyed it, and I'd I get the chance, I will go back. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with this place. It was much more quaint and cozy than I expected based on the outside. We ordered margaritas, chips with guacamole, fried plantains and three tacos each. I ordered the steak, pork, and chorizo. The steak was my least favorite of the three. The service was pretty good. Overall this is a great place to get some Mexican grub! read more
