The guacamole is the highlight here. They prepare it fresh at your table and the flavors show. You also get two salsas, mild and spicy, and both work well with the chips. The cheese dip delivers. The margarita special is worth ordering. The fajita platter arrives smoking hot on a cast iron skillet, which looks great. The problem is the skirt steak. It is cut too thin and came out dry and overcooked. No seasoning to speak of. The chicken had more flavor but the onions and peppers needed salt at minimum. A touch of adobo would fix this dish. The Quesa Birria Tacos were a letdown. They lacked the depth and seasoning you expect from birria. Bland and forgettable. Out of three tacos, one was enough. The rice that came on the side was solid and tasted like it belonged at a Mexican restaurant. Service was attentive but the table never got utensils or extra plates. We just grabbed them from a nearby table. Come here for the guacamole, the cheese dip, and a margarita. Skip the fajitas unless you season them yourself at the table. The kitchen needs to work on its proteins.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Service was fast and friendly. The table side made guacamole was great. I ordered the birria tacos which were good but not great. The margaritas were good size and delicious. read more

This is a great restaurant! We went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't very crowded. Food was amazing. Huge plates that we took home to enjoy later. Service is amazing and the place is super clean. Menu selection is tremendous and the food is fresh. Probably some of the best salsa we've had locally. read more

Great margaritas, food, and wait staff. How could you go wrong? Well, the parking isn't totally fabulous, but if you can grab a spot you're golden (tight quarters). Ordered chips & guac, fajita quesadilla, and some tacos. All very good! I would certainly recommend and will return. read more

Tequila Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Tres Agaves Margarita - Sports Bars Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

Service is great, but I'm always disappointed with Mexican restaurants. We in our culture have an abundance of spice and it seems that all of these Mexican restaurants in Indian River County. I'm not even gonna leave it to Indian River county it's all over the place, do not use them. I had the fajita burrito and everything was bland. The tortilla had the most flavor. The beans were bland. The rice was bland. The steak in the onions and peppers were bland. The sauce was bland even the cheese was bland. As a fellow Mexican, who cooks Mexican food at home sometimes I don't wanna cook. I just wanna eat Mexican food so this really bums me out. read more

Good grilled fish tacos and grilled chicken dish. Enjoyed the freshly made table side guac. Great service. Had a nice dinner.

I just had to update my review! My husband loves the vegetable quesadilla and the portions are so generous he brought half home. I took it out and heated it up for lunch and was totally blown away! I have never had such an incredible diverse vegetable quesadilla. It has onion, mushroom, yellow quash, green pepper, tomato, zucchini, scallion, cheese and an incredibly fresh tortilla. The service last night was impeccable. The freshly made guacamole table side is to die for every.single.time. All the staff and genuinely happy to help and the entire restaurant is very clean. A stickler for me. The tables are spaced so there isn't a lot of noise from other tables. AND did I mention the tequila? read more

Had lunch in their bar and enjoyed it immensely! We had the Burrito California, it was huge, full of meat and delicious. Enjoyed the guacamole, lettuce and sour cream served with it, a wonderful combination of tastes and textures. The chips and salsa they give you were delicious, both homemade and chips were crispy and thin! Excellent!! read more

Service was great as were the chips & salsa. Husband had the chicken chimichanga and unfortunately he said the chicken was cold & dry. Friend had a burrito and he said he gave it a solid 4 stars. I had the cheese enchilada & chile relleno. The enchilada was great the egg on the outside of the relleno was terrible. I am used to a fluffy egg batter not a paper thin omelette around the relleno. The rice & beans were really good. read more

It was a Saturday night and miraculously, we didn't have to wait for a booth. Our wait staff was okay, but not extra attentive. The salsa and chips they give you are really great, especially the salsa. We each had fajitas, one with fish and one with chicken. Each was mostly onions (I prefer them a bit more cooked and caramelized) with little protein. Not that many peppers either. The refried beans were avoidable and we could have had a little more guacamole. A long table next to us made it a bit noisy and we were near the wait staff would go to prep tables- not sure if that's an entrance to the kitchen. read more

The burrito is the best--packed with flavor. The chips and salsa are fresh and zesty, a perfect combo. The cheese dip is irresistible. Definitely worth a try! read more

The food was mediocre and very similar to Ay Jaliscos. There was one waitress for the entire restaurant and she was very slow and inattentive. Was really hoping for a better experience. Aside from our experience, the women's bathroom was absolutely filthy. It's actually what made me think twice about even finishing my meal. I regretted my decision to finish my food a couple hours later. read more

Great food and the ambience was spot on. Service was OK. Our waiter was sometimes distracted by cute girls, therefore we needed to flag him down for drink refills. Definitely will come here again when I'm in town read more

Party of five went for dinner at 6:30 pm on a weeknight. We did not have to wait to be seated. Drink orders were taken promptly. Draft beers are $5.50, (priced a little higher than most places), a glass of wine is $7.50, Carafe of Sangria is $13.00. The Sangria is very good. For $7.50 there should have been more wine in the glass. Our table received a basket of tortilla chips and two small bowls of salsa (one mild; one spicy). The tortilla chips are light and come with no salt and were very tasty. Additional chips and salsa were provided upon request and at no extra charge. Entrees came out to the table after 15 minutes of placing orders. Our table entrees included orders of the Seafood Enchilada $16, 2 Beef Enchiladas Combo $10.50, 2 Burritos Combo $11.50, Steak Jalisco $23.50, and the Chicken Tacos Carbon $17. All of the meals were good however the rice was a little dried out. One of our friends was celebrating a birthday and was treated to a free birthday dessert and the staff sang a birthday tune. We also ordered the Flan $5.99 which was excellent. Service was pretty good. Our server was friendly and attentive but seemed to only be able to juggle one thing at a time. We asked for a second drink while waiting for our entrees to come out, and it was forgotten about until reminded, and we had to ask for extra napkins twice before they were brought to the table. Most Mexican restaurants include a dollop of sour cream atop or to the side of the entree. Here entrees do not come with any sour cream and instead charges $1.49 to $2.49 if you want sour cream depending on the entree. The amount of this charge seems a bit much. .50 to .75 cents at most seems more in line with getting a spoonful of sour cream on your plate. The only other recommendation I have that would be very helpful to patrons is creating a website and posting a copy of the menu for folks to look at before going to the restaurant. I have taken pictures of the entire menu and posted them here with hopes it helps other patrons who read this. If 3.5 stars was a choice, I would have awarded that. I'm sure I will eat here again, but it is not a top choice of Mexican restaurants to go to in Vero Beach. read more

Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in Vero. (I've been almost all of them). Service 10/10. Cleanliness 10/10. Food 11/10! I got the taco el carbon. So delicious!! Amazing salsa. Roasted flavor. Got a jalapeño margarita sooo good! They added extra jalapeños to make it even spicier. Next time I am going to get the table side guac because we didn't this time but multiple people around me did, and it looked delicious. Absolutely we will be coming back!!!! read more

Very tasty food in a clean , friendly environment. A basket of tortilla chips and spicy salsa was served complimentary. We enjoyed our meal.

The pro was that my order was ready in 5 minutes. Cons were that my "salad" had no salad. I think the three shreds of lettuce to the left on the photo was supposed to be a salad. Tortilla shell was soggy. Very pricey for not much food. The shrimp were clearly made from frozen, very watery and flavorless. read more

Tequila Azteca Mexican Restaurant - Shrimp fajita salad - Sports Bars Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

Stopped in Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. Was greeted right away and seated. The ambiance is good and the restaurant is clean. The food was ok, not spectacular. I ordered fajitas. The steak was overdone and the peppers and onions were quite greasy. The rice and beans were good. My wife's food was a bit bland as it lacked seasonings. The music is good but way too loud. I have a hearing disability and it was painful. For now, it's a 3 star. We'll come another time and see how it is then. read more

So far it's the best Mexican food in Vero Beach. Service wasn't great but it didn't affect our experience.

Service: 2/5. Much is left to be desired overall on service. You can tell they are new, potentially understaffed, and more than likely over worked. However, I gave them 2/5 on service as they did not have a great process to leave your name on a list with the hostess and several people who made "reservations" were also not on the list. Our suggested wait time, while a suggestion, was off by about 25-30 minutes. Our waiter was extremely over worked and was running around the restaurant and did not bring refills unless asked specifically for. We had to ask for additional tortillas for the fajitas and refills on drinks. We also had to request to get the bill at the end of the evening. Granted we did dine here on Saturday during prime time. Food: 4/5. This is truly where Tequila Azteca shined. The food was on par if not better than most Mexican restaurants in Vero Beach. This restaurant definitely provides better quality food over a newer Mexican restaurant that recently opened in the Indian River Mall. However, the food might leave some missing the nostalgia of a long time Mexican restaurant in Vero Beach located on US-1. I had the fajitas and while it was more vegetables than meat, everything was well seasoned and cooked excellently. In my opinion, the vegetables could have been more charred. The rice and beans were just okay, nothing special. I also had the taquitos as an app appetizer and they closely resembled flautas at other Mexican restaurants in the area. read more

Carne asada was awesome. Service was good and quick. Plenty of tables for everyone, lighting was bright.

I am a foodie, often hard to please That being said Tequila Azteca exceeded all my expectations. The restaurant is beautiful . The service is friendly and very professional. But the best part is the food, fresh ingredients that are homemade. I will definitely be back and tell all my friends all about this little gem . Btw, they have a private room for parties. The restaurant is next door to Deep Six Dive and Watersports. read more

Their ceviche is out of this world. Sooo yummy! The lime tangyness with mango sweetness is just the right combo for this Shrimp ceviche. My husband ordered the chix fajitas which were really good too. Waitstaff is attentive too. read more

Very attractive interior, with plenty of high back booths. Service was good. Prices were low compared to many other local Mexican restaurants. The complimentary tortilla chips were homemade & excellent. Salsa was tasty - both thevmild and a slightly spicier version. The enchiladas ($9) were stuffed with ground beef & covered in enchilada sauce. Mild tasting that I enhanced with salsa on top. The Taco salad ($10.50) was good, but unusual with the chicken in the bottom. No beans but lots of sour cream. However, the tortilla shell was horrible. Burnt along the edges & tasted like a lump of lard. Will visit again but won't order the taco salad. The server asked us how everything was right after we received our food, but didn't ask us after we tried everything and were finished. read more

The wait was extremely long, we waited over 1 hour for our entree. The service was okay. The waitress was polite but we think she forgot about us. The food was really good. They did not over cook my shrimps, which is a nice change. The nacho was nicely loaded and the sides were flavored well. I'll have to come back and give them another try. read more

The chips and salsa were warm and fresh and plentiful. Refills were offered. The entrees were not great, however. We ordered taco salad, enchiladas, and a tostada, as well as a kid's meal of Mac and cheese. The kids mac and cheese was Kraft - always a winner with my 6 year old, but that's where the positives ended. The tostada was wet and bland. The shredded chicken in the taco salad was flavorless and chewy but also made the shell soggy. The enchiladas were okay.. but the enchilada sauce tasted weirdly floral. Overall pass. read more

After hearing of the opening of this New Mexican restaurant and reading the favorable review, I was looking forward to my visit. To say it was a complete disappointment is an understatement. The service was inattentive. The signature guacamole appetizer was a saline solution overpowered with onions. We ordered four appetizers, two were marginal but the tacos, a standard of Mexican cuisine could best be described as insipid, bland mixture of unseasoned beef wrapped in a cold tortilla. One bite was enough to ignore the other three. The premium Beef burrito was a blend of rice, cheese in a liquid disguised as salsa; but where is the beef? Lastly, we ordered the Margaritas which had the essence of tequila and consequently had to ask for additional shots. One last note note, was the reason for providing a separate menu for drinks and desserts with no prices? Nunca mas. read more

The food was very tasty. My vegetables were packed with favor and cooked to perfection. Our server was very busy and moving as fast as possible - he tried his absolute best to accommodate our table. The place had just opened and they were still working out the kinks. One of the employees gave me the Wi-Fi password when I asked, but it didn't work. Without the Wi-Fi, the cellular connection was terrible. read more

We've come here many times due to the good food. However, today I brought guests since I thought they would enjoy it. Interestingly, the service was horrible: Had to ask for more chips; Had to ask for more salsa; No one ever refilled our water glasses. I was completely embarrassed and will never put guests through a similar experience here again. They even commented about the lack of service, to me.
