Excellent and friendly staff. Food is decent and overall decently priced. Go on Mondays for less than a dollar margaritas! Shared parking lot as it's located in a strip mall. The atmosphere is light and good for a chat with friends. read more

Tequila House - Wall art - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Elizabethtown, Kentucky

As Etown is growing, so is our local food scene. I love supporting local, and I'm grateful to those who take on the challenge of operating a local restaurant. Tequila House unfortunately for me didn't really hit the mark, but definitely has some redeeming qualities. We came here with my husband's family, so we were a rather large group. The table we were sat at was a little tight, but that wasn't a problem, we were happy to be seated together. We started with the choriqueso dip. This was probably the highlight of the meal, but the portion was so small, there were some people at the table that didn't even get to try it. We all got assorted entrees and none of them were anything to write home about. The atmosphere here is was really sets it apart from other places in Etown. It's very in-your-face stroby, loud, and heavily-decorated. To me, it feels a bit contrived, but it definitely is different from other places in town, and could make for a fun night out for those looking for that. There was live music too, which was really loud, but again if that's what you're looking for then this is the place. Overall, this was not my favorite, but I'd be willing to come back if I'm craving a sort of night out. read more

So good! This is such a great little gem in Elizabethtown. Very inventive menu, lots of really delicious options. Prices are very reasonable and the staff are interested in making sure customers have a good dining experience. More of a tropical South American /mexican menu. Lots of refreshing items. Pineapple salsa is great. Really enjoy this place and will be back. read more

Food is delicious and comes out looking amazing. The stuffed jalapeños are the best appetizer ever. Huge portions are great but not necessary because the food is so good. Go get you some! read more

Tequila House - Mango tango - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Elizabethtown, Kentucky

Spacious, colorful, and fantastic food! Our waitress was so professional and gladly double checked ingredient questions with the kitchen. There were many affordable options as well. The chicharron guacamole was incredible! This was such a pleasant surprise of a restaurant! read more

Food was wonderful! Went there on a weekend with friends. We all have different tastes; my husband enjoyed some Chicharron on Guacamole (pork belly strips on guacamole), our friends had shrimp ceviche and Camarones zarandeados, I had the esquites and Baja Shrimp tacos and they were perfection! read more

I came in from a long drive while shopping for Christmas. Decided to try the Tomahawk steak with plantains and rice. Needless to say I was disappointed. The plantains were over cooked the steak was undercooked and hardly seasoned I asked for medium I got rare to medium rare. The steak did not have a good crust and the fat cap was not even seared. read more

Tequila House - Tomahawk steak - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Elizabethtown, Kentucky

We ate there on a quiet Sunday evening and I'll start from the beginning here. The chips and salsa are superior. We lived in San Antonio for over a decade. And their chips and salsa are perfect. My husband got the chicken chimichanga, and I got the enchilada trio, both were extremely good. Their shredded chicken is particularly good and flavorful all on its own. My husband got the rumchata, and I got the mango tango. Both very tasty. The mango tango has a whole dreamcicle in there which I didn't mind at all. Our waiter was attentive as well. I highly recommend this place to eat, even if it's just for drinks and chips and salsa! read more

Drinks were awesome, food was a tad bit salty but other than that wonderful. I liked the decor and the flashing lights didn't bother us. Prices weren't bad and my entire party enjoyed their food. read more

I'm very torn on my opinion about Tequila House. I WANT to like it but something just doesn't connect for me. I've been twice, for lunch and for dinner, and each time it's been kind of... eh? The interior decor is trying to be fun and punchy, but comes off as a kitschy and less-polished version of Guacamole in Louisville. The music was a little too loud for conversation, and the nonstop flashing strobe lights (even at lunch time) are very distracting - if you are prone to headaches/migraines or epilepsy, this place is not for you. The service was also inattentive and lacking both times I went, which is a shame. On my first visit, I ordered the Baja fish tacos and was pretty disappointed. They're pretty bland, and I'd recommend that the chef pay a visit to Taco Luchador to get a feel for how the flavors should actually come together. On my next visit, I got their signature burrito with steak, and while that was delicious, they forgot to bring us our appetizer. Instead of just removing it from the bill, they rushed it out after we'd finished our entrees, so we ended up paying for something we didn't even eat. The cocktails are the obvious draw to this place, but they prioritize flashiness over quality. The presentation is over-the-top and a ton of fun on all of their signatures, but the drinks themselves are imbalanced sugar bombs. The price isn't on the menu, but they trend around $12 each. For being a tequila house, there was a surprisingly small tequila list and not many drinks that featured it in a unique way. If you're looking for a great cocktail in E'town, I'd recommend the Cavern Club instead. My hopes may have been too high going in here; for me this is a no. read more

Tequila House - Baja fish tacos - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Elizabethtown, Kentucky

A friend & I wanted ladies night out last min and I recommended the Tequila House based off what I saw other people post on social media. It wasn't that busy when we arrived. We were seated to the nearest both as soon as we walked past the entrance. They have a small foyer that is decorated with greens and neon lights for social media posts and picture taking. There was music playing when we walked in, it was a bit loud. We had a hard time hearing our server and each other most of our evening. Once seated, menus were provided and introduced to our server Jaelon. We wanted drink and peaked at the drink menu, they ran out of ingredients for some drinks, so we had to ask what drinks were available and he had to go ask. When he came back, we ordered what was available. I got the Mango Tango and my friend ordered the Jamaica Sunset. While waiting on our drinks, we decided to order. We started with a trio of dips appetizers (guacamole, mango pico de gallo & spinach queso) with chips. I wasn't super hungry so I got the steak tacos & my friend ordered the burrito bravo with steak. After we ordered, our server brought out my friend's drink, which was spilled little on the floor next to me and on our table. We had no extra napkins & our server didn't come back to clean it up, just came back to drop off my drink. When someone else brought out our appetizer, we asked them to clean it up. Which she did come back with a towel to wipe it up. I'm not a huge fan of frozen drinks but this wasn't bad at all. Definitely taste the mango & tajin. My friend's drink wasn't bad either loved the flavor of the hibiscus flower. The appetizer... I noticed right away it wasn't correct, we had 2 queso & once I said something to the server who brought it out, our server came back to check and had to look at what we order on his pad. When I repeated told him, it's not right we order the mango pico and not plain queso. Shortly after he checked he went to the kitchen to get us the pico but let us keep the extra queso. Now the queso dips we good and the mango pico de gallo was good but the guacamole..... man it was disappointing.. must have been made earlier on because it looked dark ( it was a bit hard to tell due to lighting) but it tasted like a old avocado. While all this is happening, there a gentleman playing music, dancing, singing & playing the trumpet to the restaurant. Getting the crowd involved. Kinda was fun but it also turned the music up to 11 and me & my friend literally had to yell in each other ears to have a conversation. After about 10ish or more/less minutes, our food came out.. the smelled good. My steak was season and had some flavor BUT one layer of the tortillas wasn't heated up all the way and it a taste and texture since it wasn't soft & tasted like they just took the tortillas out of the bag. My friend liked her burrito. We ordered another round of drinks, my friend got the mango tango & I wanted the margarita flights on the rocks. When the drinks came.. the server immediately knew they messed up on the flight & made them frozen but told us they were on the house and went back to get the flights on the rocks. Which was nice. The margarita were as expected flavor and consistency. Cute little touch with the tray and the mini jars & straws. Overall they have some things that needs improvement for open this month. It's wasn't awful but it wasn't as expected or seen on social media. They service was decent, staff seemed to be helpful when needed and turn around time for food was good. Drinks don't look exactly like what's on the menu, no prices for specialty cocktails either. The decor and ambiance is neat and beautiful, but I would also like to hear my friend and my server without yelling. read more

I have mixed opinions for this place, it's a nice place, very loud, chairs sets really low, if your a tall person it's hard to set in them, the food, not great, mostly because of seasoning, I had the beef chimichanga, I think what they filled it with was a roast that was shredded, no peppers or other fillings, just thick meat, bland and I don't know what the sauce was that they put over it, wasn't good. My wife had the burrito with Al paster pork, she said it was good, we both agree'd that we will try it again, but hope they read these comments and do some changing, my daughter and her husband, she had the steak tacos, said it was good, he had the beef chimichanga as I did, the rice was just so so, fresh cilantro all over it, made it worse then what it was. Rice had no flavor. It looked better then it tasted. read more

Remarkable upscale Mexican restaurant convenient to shopping. This was a 180 from the typical Mexican restaurant that has hundreds of items in the menu, greasy food, premixed margaritas and rice and beans served with everything. The food here was fresh and flavor filled. It was presented like a 4 star restaurant. The craft cocktails are delicious and such a nice break from other Mexican restaurants. The atmosphere is fun and a great place to go for a special night out. The service was friendly and quick. I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because I felt the drink prices were a little pricey. $3.25 for soda and tea is a bit much and felt the cocktails could have been priced slightly lower. read more

After working a 12 hour shift I came here for dinner only to be denied service. Was the only table and the waiter took forever to even take a drink order the refused to get my drink after not asking for ID from half the table. read more

The interior was nice, made us feel like we were back at a place in LA. I saw alot of comments about the strobes and what not, while those were going it wasn't a distraction, nor was music too loud. We did go for lunch. The food was good, nice presentation. It seemed to be bland though, rarely anything has a hint of seasoning. This could be done for a few reasons but at least use salt and pepper. Our waiter was kind and attentive. We will be back to try some of the good looking drink options and tequila tastings. read more

Tonight was our first visit here. First impressions were 10/10. The atmosphere was beautifully done. Whoever the interior designer was did a phenomenal job. Service: Today is a Sunday and it wasn't busy at all. The staff member we got wasn't great or wasn't trained well. It took a long time for someone to figure out who was taking care of our table. And then once they did he didn't make very good eye contact and just seemed kind of out of it. Noticed him going outside a lot. Didn't ask if we wanted chips when he took our drink order. When he finally came back around after about 20 minutes we had already drank our drinks and he asked if we wanted more and didn't take away our empty glasses. Drinks: My husband got a west 6 IPA and that was fine. I ordered a spicy margarita on the rocks and it was just ok. It wasn't like the picture on the menu. It didn't come with tajin and it wasn't spicy at all. It had two slices of jalapeños and a slice of lime. Had they maybe muddled the jalapeños or used a jalapeño syrup maybe it would have had some heat behind the cocktail. Food: My husband got the ramen barbacoa and he said he was not impressed with it at all. It didn't have much meat in it, maybe about a pinch. Since I got the enchiladas he saw how much meat was in my one and it had way more meat then his ramen. For $14 he was just let down. I got the enchiladas trio and Mexican rice. It was good. Nothing to write home about. Was a good peek on the flavors that might be in other dishes. The rice was bland and not worth $4 AT ALL. I really wish the food was better cause we would love to come and enjoy this establishment with others for the interior alone. read more

Food wasn't bad, chips were okay but had to pay for them so probably won't get them again. The tacos were delicious though. I had the Baja fish tacos and they were perfect. The seating was a little strange. I sat in the booth part and was a little too high for the table so I was just kinda hunched over the entire time. My husband sat in one of the lawn style ones and was way too low. I felt like I was looking down at him the entire time. The wait staff was alright. Most of the time they were all on their phones and they weren't very attentive. We did go while it was a bit dead so it may be a completely different vibe later at night. Would go back to give it another try though. read more

Not your typical Mexican restaurant. I loved it for something different to try. We were there for a very late lunch on Cinco de Mayo. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fun & modern. Although, we did have to ask for the music to be turned down because it was LOUD (we couldn't hear our server & he couldn't hear us) & they accommodated us. The margarita flight is enough for 2-4 people but I didn't realize that when I ordered it. Lots of "dessert drinks" to choose from with candy & cakes on top of the drink. Portion sizes are generous. I'm looking forward to going back! read more

First Impression -- it looks cool, until you're seated next to strobe lights that just blink at you the entire time you're there ... so, obnoxious and headache. Got it. Drinks -- they're delicious ... smoked ... and expensive AF. $13.00 is the rough starting cost for an Old Fashion and their Mezcalita -- but there aren't ANY prices on drinks ... 'this is called modern day Robbery'. 4 drinks. $52. Drink BEFORE you come here, because you can buy two handles at the liquor store for that price. Timing and Intuition -- they're a new business and still learning. I when with my wife and ordered "just after a table of 20" ... so why wouldn't you knock out the table of 2 for ease and speed, I mean, 2 sets of street tacos vs a table of 20 people... lacking. Atmosphere -- it's semi-loud, but a decent vibe. Good 90s music. Our server was awesome. ... this, is where it gets worse. Food -- ... Oyie. The appetizer was chirqueso and it was pretty good. Comes with chips and is medium spiced because of the chorizo. Not bad. We got Baja Fish and the Quesotaco with Barbacoa. ... and I don't know if you've ever had the desire to reverse engineer the taste of nothingness ... but if you ever decided you wanted to try the taste of nothingness -- get their Baja fish tacos ... absolutely disappointing. I don't know how you can top a tasteless street taco with pickled ANYTHING and it still taste like nothing, but it's impressively bland. And the quesotaco was so greasy that one napkin isn't enough... every time you touch the taco, you come back with grease and it's OVERWHELMINGLY greasy -- to the point you can't even taste the barbacoa ... gross. Dripping. The meat tasted pretty good, which is sad for the entire dish, which just tasted like taking chunky shots of virgin olive oil... The Bar -- if the ownership reads this ... your employee ... the "man" with the blue hair (that matches your ties...) and piercings who was taking 'customer drinks' from the bar and causing the bartender to make extra ... this guy needs to be shitcanned. An absolute disgrace to be seen completely plastered at the bar by your patronage, as a new business. This is what you allow. Guy dropped his phone 5 times, grabbed at the passing waitresses, tried to grab the neck of one of your other male servers like he wanted a kiss, was annoying a couple that sat a seat away at the bar by coming closer and trying to interrupt their night ... Conclusion -- Two people. 4 drinks. Fried Plantains (we're good). Choriqueso and chips. Fish tacos. Queso tacos. $135.00.... This place is CRAZY expensive for how absolutely abysmal the food is. The alcoholic was the night's entertainment... and it just made me want to throw him out. read more

Went and sat at bar for Cinco De Mayo. It took the bartenders 15 mins to greet me. Which was okay because at the time I already asked the people next to me for their menus and recommendations. I ordered the margarita flights which had too much syrup not enough tequila. Next, I ordered my street corn as my appetizer and tequila shrimp as my entree. Which both came out at the same time. Not what I wanted. Street corn was delicious, I could've ate it by itself. The tequila shrimp was just shrimp over a bed of rice. You can tell this place is new because everything was so unorganized. Especially when in the middle of me drinking my margarita flight, a server asked if they can have the tray that I had the margarita flight on. Anyway, I'm giving grace to this place because it was a holiday. I will try one more time. read more

Don't change a thing about this place. The vibe, drinks, food, service. All A+. The decor is something you'd see in a bigger city, very Tulum- Mexican. Margaritas are great and they even have a flight if you want to try different flavors. Super nice, and upbeat for a smaller town. Music is perfect not super low but loud enough to enjoy. Maybe add some reggaeton, but seriously Just go now. read more

We really enjoyed this place. It's very casual and inviting. Service was great and food was amazing. We will be returning.

We visited the restaurant this past weekend. Don't let the outside deceive you. The inside is really big and I loved the decor.

Definitely will be coming back. read more

This place was well worth the wait! I'm was very surprised to find such a place with excellent food and even better drinks. The food was amazing! Cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of seasoning. I've found other restaurants that make their food too salty but this place was on point! Not under or over cooked! Our waitress was constantly checking on us and making sure we had we everything we wanted, which is not something you see very often now a days. The drinks were a great size for the price. I've paid more for a smaller drinks at other locations. I had the Jamaica sunset. Highly recommend it. I love the atmosphere and decor! The music was on point as well. I will definitely be coming when I come back to Kentucky. read more

This is not your traditional Mexican restaurant, and that is a good thing for etown. This restaurant has a more modern bar theme. There is audible music and colorful lighting. We did not drink during this visit, but the bar area did look very nice with large TVs above it. As for the food it was pretty good. Chips and salsa aren't complimentary, however they did refill them for free (I didn't ask, but I assume that is the standard). My entree was the Quesatacos and my partner got the Baja Fish Tacos. The barbacoa and Oaxaca cheese in the Quesatacos were delicious. These were also served with what I believe was consommé. I also tried on they were fish tacos and they were superb. It went very well with the provided salsa. Our waiter was nice and kept our drinks refilled. My only real complaint was the seating. It's a bit awkward if you set in one of their half bench/half chair tables. There is a noticeable height difference with the person setting on the bench being roughly half a foot higher than those in the chair. They have normal tables and chairs. If those are available I would request those. read more

INCREDIBLE food, could not be more happy. Staff was extremely friendly and attentive. Very clean and vibrant restaurant. 10/10 will be back.

Great restaurant! Good food and drinks. I'm glad there is a more upscale place in this town!

It's like dance club in here. Little loud if you are looking for a comfortable dining experience - good food though

Amazing place in elizabethtown to go for brunch! To be honest the restaurant wasn't too packed when we went so that could be a reason for the quick service but i've never been to a restaurant of this quality with this quick of service. The waiters were very friendly and quickly gave us refills due to the recent heat wave. It was also very clean and very cute and fun on the inside. in terms of the food, it was beyond expectations. I got the breakfast tacos which were perfectly done with big portion sizes for the equally good prices. Definitely will go back and highly recommend! read more

We really wanted to like this place but after three separate visits, we decided it's just not for us. The flavor just isn't there on these dishes & are surprisingly bland. We've tried the ramen, birria tacos, a few brunch items and all were just completely lacking any real flavor. They are a new restaurant so hopefully it'll improve in the future but for now, it's a pass for me. read more
