    Elote
    Debra M.

    Everything I've ordered from here has been delicious. This time I tried two new things, Quesa Birria Taco and Elote. I hadn't had Birria before and it tasted wonderful. Savory, tender shreds of beef in a taco grilled with onions and cheese was a juicy surprise. The taco was crispy and added a nice crunch along with the diced onion. I really appreciated the extra cilantro. My sides were Elote and refried beans, which came with a generous cup of queso fresco crumbles. The Elote was a tender, sweet corn cob with spices and queso fresco and it really hit the spot. The refried beans weren't the canned mush typical of restaurant beans; they had flavor and texture and the cheese made them even better. There's a reason I come back here again and again.

    Delicious mezcal drink, delicious fish tacos (that they made without the breading so my gf self could enjoy!!). We sat on the patio which was very nice, but right next to a very busy road, and I found the noise bothersome, especially for a place that touts its patio so much. The service was a little slow, but it was a very hot day, so I can't fault them too much for it! Overall I'd likely return if I was in the area, but would probably sit inside instead.

    Tres Leches Cake

    My husband, daughter and I arrived right at lunch opening. It wasn't busy by any means and our appetizer and drinks came out lightening quick! But when it came to our entrees, those took a lot longer to the point where I almost flagged our server down to ask for an update. It was a Sunday, which meant happy hour was all day. My husband enjoyed BOGO beer while I enjoyed a N/A margarita. I was happy to see the N/A margarita was $7 as sometimes restaurants price their mocktails and cocktails the same. We love getting their queso fundido as it's loaded with yummy goodies. I failed to take photos of our main entrees, but my husband got the breakfast burrito and I got a shrimp taco & a fish taco with yuca fries as my side. Both were good as usual! Finished lunch off with a little lunch dessert of tres leches! It was good but nothing to write home about. It tasted like boxed white cake soaked in condensed milk with Cool Whip on top. All in all it was a yummy, but expensive, lunch date!

    Stopped in for lunch before our tour of Paisley Park. Beautiful ambiance. Great patio area as well although to chilly for us to sit out there. We sat at the bar, and our bartender was wonder and super pleasant. She had great drink ideas for us, as non of us were experts in tequila but felt we needed to respect the name and drink tequila. All her recommendations and what she prepared for us was yummy. The food was good, came out quickly. Reasonable priced for the portions. Totally would frequent them on the regular if lived in the area! We ordered the birra Mac and what a flavor bomb. Got all the birra flavor with tons of oozy cheese! Then we tried the cauliflower taco, smoked chicken and pescado they were delicious, I would definitely go back for that cauliflower taco again and again! Can never go wrong with elote! So good

    A great place to grab some friends and have some fun! We came to tequila Butcher to grab dinner with friends. This restaurant does not disappoint. I ordered the professional which included ribs, brisket and sausage. All of the meats were cooked to perfection and gave the taste profiles that One would want when ordering such a meal. We will definitely be back . Great place with healthy portions

    Bloody Mary

    I've been hearing about Tequila Butcher for some time now and was excited to go for Sunday lunch with my family. My first impression that I am pretty sure this was the old Applebees in chanhassen, but the inside was way more aesthetically pleasing than your average Applebees. I'm not sure if we visited on an off day, but for a Sunday lunch we were one of maybe 4 tables in the entire establishment. I was surprised at how dead it was. Either way, the food was alright(everyone said I got the best thing - the French toast), service was good, and there's a loaded Bloody Mary that had all the bells and whistles. Maybe this place is less of a brunch place and more of a happy hour place?

    We had such a great experience at Tequila Butcher in Eden Prairie! I ordered a tequila flight and loved how the server made great substitutions when a few items were out--she really knew her stuff. Even though she seemed to be holding down the fort as bartender, waitress, and server all at once, she worked incredibly hard and never missed a beat. The food was excellent and the portions were huge--definitely above and beyond what we expected. My husband ordered the build-your-own chicken tacos, and it came with what looked like half a chicken--no way he could finish it. Great bang for your buck! The menu seems to be evolving, and it feels like they're fine-tuning their concept, but the flavors are absolutely on point. The manager even stopped by as we were leaving, took photos for us, and encouraged us to share our experience. You can tell they really care about making this place a success and are putting their hearts into it. Next time, we're checking out the speakeasy-turned-tiki bar hidden inside--such a cool concept! With so many tequilas and mezcals still left to try, we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend giving this place a shot if you haven't yet!

    Obviously a great tequila selection and love the drinks. Food was really good and our server was helpful. I loved the appetizer i had! Pictured below - Anthony

    Mango Salmon, three tacos with chips and salsa and a side of Crispy Brussels
    Oliver S.

    This has to be the best restaurant I've ever been to! I've been to Gordon Ramsay's restaurants in London and this tops that! Everything was amazing. I got three tacos, the chicken Tinga and two Baja fish tacos. My wife loves Brussels sprouts so she had those as a side. She said they were to die for. Amazing tacos! My wife got the mango salmon and loved it. Then, to top everything off we had ordered the tres leches cake for dessert. Our plan was to share one but then we had to get another. Let's just say this, I think other guests were probably looking at us and saying, 'I'll have what they're having'. Great service too, and a lovely atmosphere.

    Do they have heaters on the patio? Enough to keep warm on a cold day?

They do have some bar/counter seating but friends advised scoring that was iffy. This was the old Dairy Queen way back in the day. It has had several iterations and Heather's is the latest and arguably the most successful. I would not have thought to go here had friends not made the reservation (it is near their home) and I guess I would not go out of the way to go here again. Don't let that stop you. Very small parking lot, 2 people wanted my space and had me boxed in.

I think it was perfect during happy hour and then could turn off when the dancing started. Food: The jerk chicken egg rolls were huge and had great flavor. Also enjoyed the little sliders. The meat on the skewers was a super weird texture like almost a mushy bite maybe it was like a vegan meat I wasn't sure. The service at the bar was a bit slow at times there was two back there but the staff worked really hard at the end as the party went late and the staff was awesome cleaning up around us til the last minute so thanks for that!!!

We went back today and while it was still good, definitely wasn't as good as it was last time. The jerk chicken plate removed the beans, changed the rice, and got rid of the sauce so it wasn't as good though it was a bit less dry than last time. They also removed the Ropa Vieja from the menu which was our favorite. My husband had the Cuban sandwich and was not impressed. The fries with it were good. The drinks were still great. Service was friendly but slow (drinks, food, and waitress all slow). Another in our party got the blackened salmon which was really good. Unfortunately, I was so nervous they would remove or change the menu to be worse, which is a common theme I've noticed with 4 different restaurants by these owners now, so I was so bummed to see that's exactly what happened. Such a cool vibe, great drinks, and a really cool new patio - but the food needs a bit of work - bring back the Ropa Vieja and the better jerk chicken!

Here's my review of the food we ordered: Cocktail of the hour - aka "Golden Hour" - 8.5/10 Reminded me of mulled cider, notes of honey, very refreshing Pork Belly Steam Buns - 8.1/10 Nice texture, very tender and flavorful Mini Banh Mi - 7/10 Not bad, would have preferred the more traditional pork filling Crispy Chicken- 8.7/10 This really surprised me, from appearance the chicken didn't look that special but it was well seasoned and the sweet chili glaze really stole the show and elevated this dish! Mirabelle Smash Burger - 8.9/10 I'm a sucker for smash burgers and this one did not disappoint. Nice crispy bun and a special mustard sauce that we enjoyed and a different flavor I don't usually have on my burger Sticky Ribs - 5/10 Unfortunately these were quite dry and was comparing to sticky ribs I had last week at CoV that were fall off the bone Overall good spot, service, atmosphere, and would be happy to return.

Very close to the lake(walking distance) There is a free parking ramp right behind the building. The decor of this place is cute! The details seem like they were well thought out! It feels upscale and cozy! I saw a video of this place and that was what originally drew me in! The seating here is also comfortable and not over crowded. Our server was ok. I saw so many raves about the "amazing service." She did refill our water glasses, which was good because I needed it with the salty steak! Obviously the most important piece is the food. We started with the popovers. The taste was fine but the texture was almost over done. The honey butter was lacking honey flavor. Cinnamon would have really elevated the butter! I got the steak frites and my sister got the spaghetti. My fries were average. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium all the way through! I was impressed. However, it was drowning in a VERY salty sauce! I had push a lot of it off. This should be served on the side, not covering the whole steak. My sister got the spaghetti, which our waitress explained was not a regular spaghetti. I feel she has probably had to do that multiple times and honestly, it should just be renamed. It's confusing for the customer. My sister did say she enjoyed the dish and that the shrimp was ere done well. For dessert I got "Aunties iced latte" which is their version of like an espresso martini. It was just ok. Would not get again. We got the carrot cake which was good!! But then they ruined it by putting fake whipped cream.... This is supposed to be a higher end restaurant and that made the dessert feel so cheap. We also got the creme brûlée. DO NOT ORDER THAT! It is an absolute waste of money! The sugar top was so thick we couldn't eat it! The dessert had the consistency of scrambled eggs, not a smooth custard. The taste seemed ok, but whoever made this does not know what they are doing! Overall, the food was not memorable and a lot of it was done poorly. There are definitely better restaurants in the area.
