Our party of 4 was there about 10 days ago. We've been there before and it has always been a good dining experience. But on this particular day it was exceptional because of our server John Gabriel. What a nice young man. Very professional, explained the menu to us with patience turning the ordering into a fun experience. He checked with us a couple of times to make sure everything was absolutely to our satisfaction. He would fit in well in a top tier Philadelphia restaurant, but I'm glad we have him in Lancaster. P.S. the drinks were great also. read more

I've been here a year ago. They upgraded their menu look and the place. I had the tuna steak tacos which was over cooked, but the flavor was still very good. The Pina colada was good and just the right amount of liquor. My husband had the Mole chicken enchiladas. He said it was a 6/10. The chicken was a bit dry and the tortilla was dry. But it had a good flavor. The service was good and the place was clean. The bathrooms were clean, but no toilet paper, paper towels and the soap was about to empty! read more

Easy place to watch sports or grab a drink. Fantastic service and they've got a margarita sampler with some unique flavors. Not all delicious but I enjoy trying to new things. Food wasn't my favorite but they've got some staples on the menu if you're looking for tacos or a quesadilla in a pinch read more

Stopped in for lunch and really loved the decor and our server was friendly and attentive. I had fish tacos that were crispy and flavorful. Nice and spicy. My friend had fajitas and they were a little more spicy than she liked. Next time she'd ask for the sauce on the side. We didn't have any drinks other than iced tea, but the margaritas looked very interesting! We'll be back. read more

The atmosphere and service are great. The food is wonderful. I got the Hawaiian chicken fajita and my husband got the mixed grill fajita. And don't forget the plantains. They are like dessert We liked it so much we came back the following week. read more

Delivery Service...We've eaten at the restaurant and everything from service to drinks to food was excellent. Tonight shrimp taco's were a soggy mess, no sauce when I asked for it on the side. Hubby got taco plater with corn tortillas, the tortillas broken ‍ n half and everything was soggy as well. The lid was not on the rice, we took it out of the bag and it fell all over the floor. The fajita nachos were a soggy mess as well. $75 dollars for a soggy dinner very disappointing. I recommend dining in, no delivery! Nothing wrong with delivery service. read more

One of the best restaurants in Lancaster area. Great authentic Mexican food, they have a huge menu with items you wouldnt usually find at other places. Service was excellent even during a busy dinner rush. read more

We picked up our order to eat at home. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Absolutely delicious! The portion sizes were large, so we have lots of yummy leftovers! I would say this is my new favorite Mexican restaurant, after years of searching (loved Carlos & Charlies back in the 80's). Would recommend this to everyone! YUM! read more

Stopped for drinks and dinner with the girls after work. Nice little restaurant. Large selections of drinks/beers. Typical mexican restaurant fare. They have live music some nights too! Fajita was delicious. Enough for three meals. The margs were great too. Reasonable prices. Give it a try read more

Don't ever go there on Cinco de Mayo! The service was atrocious. We waited at the bar for over 30 minutes for our drink order (and gave up). Have no idea how the food tastes except for the chips and salsa. The salsa was good - spicy. The chips were lame. We paid for a beer by leaving the money on the counter. It would have taken another 30 minutes to get our tab. We left and went to an Italian restaurant. Huge disappointment. Management should have handled staffing better. One bartender making all the drinks??? read more

Food was absolutely yummy, not the typical boring mexican food I have come to hate. This food is tasty, well prepared, served in a lovely presentation. (There were flags on everything, I collected them all into one lime) Service was great, place was very busy even on Labor day Friday it filled right up by 6pm. We will definitely be back! read more

A nice local gem. One you could easily miss but because of local fan fare got to try this for the first time. Very delicious. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. There isn't a lot parking but for it being a tiny place there was a decent amount of seating and easy to get through. For appetizers we tried the guacamole salsa and chips plus the street corn. Both were dynamite in my opinion some of the best I ever had. Our main course was the chicken quesadilla and the carnitas. Again delicious. I was mostly stuffed from the appetizers. The ambience was festive and fun. The server was friendly patient and attentive. Highly recommend. read more

This place has been recommended over and over again on a FB group I'm in. Inside the restaurant is a small market with beverages, condiments, dried peppers, etc. and a case of homemade sweet breads. I didn't try any on this visit, but will on my next. The sweetness filled the air and they looked delightful. The desserts in the case are also homemade. People say the flan and tres leche cake are the best in town. The staff was very friendly and hearty portions for the cost. Both the flautas and chimichanga were stuffed with shredded chicken - so moist, so flavorful. It's hard to find authentic Mexican food in Lancaster, but I think I've found my go to place! *BYOB* read more

Being from Texas gives credibility to rate a Mexican restaurant. This one rates! Don't let the small size fool you, this place rocks! The moment you step in the door you feel welcomed and the fun atmosphere, the incredible waitstaff, and the delicious food combine for a wonderful dining experience. They even accommodated our unusual bar drink requests we brought from Texas. The presentation of the drinks and the food was also very meticulously done and worth praise. See my photos for more clarity here. Trust me, just try it, you'll like it! PS. They do charge A La Carte for little things, but instead of raising "all" the food prices, they charge f/little things some folks want & others may not. read more

Me and my fiancé decided to come here after a trip to Park City Mall, and the food was absolutely delicious, we were not expecting it to be as good as it was and the Waitress was super polite and our food came out very quick, its a small place but actually quite nice inside and the bathrooms were probably the cleanest I've ever seen in a restaurant, and the neon signs all over the walls were super cool, definitely recommend stopping at this place if you're ever in the area!! read more

Authentic Mexican tacos! Elotes. Margaritas. Generous portions, affordable, friendly service, super small and intimate. Parking isn't great and not suitable for large parties. Best Mexican food in Lancaster County. I heard they opened a larger location but I haven't been to that one (yet). There is a Mexican themed "gift shop" and bakery on site as well. read more

Wow! I ordered pick up here twice so far and I don't want to be dramatic or anything but the food is fantastic!! I've tried many Mexican restaurants in Lancaster and they're pretty much all good but the food is so much more authentic,fresh and flavorful from the rest. I've never dined inside so I can't give you a review on that however the service has always been quick and accurate and the food is 10/10. Give them a try I promise you won't be disappointed! read more

There aren't prices on the beer and liquor menu. My friends both ordered 21 oz margaritas. When the bill came they found out the price...$35.00 a piece!!! WTF is that? The rest a bit pricey for what you get. It's honestly pretty average food. Anyway, the little plastic container of hot sauce is 2.50, the small side of beans and rice is 7.50, the soda is 3.00. The waiter was nice but he should mention the liquor prices. Also don't get take out here, it's 16.50 for a six pack of basic Mexican beer. The meal for 4 people was $200.00 and it wasn't much, and wasn't that good. This place is a huge disappointment. I hope it turns into a parking lot. read more

Went after soccer (20+ people). Staff was very accommodating and hardworking! We loved the food drinks and atmosphere!

The owners running everything were very nice and helpful. I do not think we communicated well, as I didn't get what was expected, however I think overall it was good and would try again. Got their app special and brisket tacos...we got them to-go & maybe not best choice because everything was fried and greasy by the time we ate them, and we had to throw some away. The tacos were doubled and cheese between, very rich, and the brisket was delicious but nothing else really in them so know what you're ordering. They have a huge menu. The shop area was PACKED & I got some specialties not available in local grocery stores. It was busy with lots of customers and to-go orders. Clean and bright inside. Next time we may dine in. read more

I am delivery driver for an app. On Saturday Feb 22 2025 I walked in and was told they were working on my order. So I said it and waited patiently. About 15 mins go by someone else comes up and says their tablet isn't working and they never got the order and wanted to know the order. So the first one lied to my face when he said he was working on it. Lying to your customers or people helping your business is not a good business practice read more

We ordered this as takeout. Normally takeout just isn't the same as in-restaurant but this meal was fantastic. Three tacos may not seem like a lot, but they are busting with beef and cheese. The consommé sauce that comes with the tacos is the perfect touch. read more

The queso findido was pretty good, the Mole Poblano was pretty good but lacked the intense flavors I'm accustomed to in this dish. The best part of the meal I'd have to say was the Tres Leche cake which was smooth and creamy and I would return for that alone read more

My husband and I stopped in after seeing many recommend Tequila Mexican Grill on Facebook. It is a small, cozy restaurant with the Mexican flair that makes one feel as if they are in Mexico. I ordered their enchiladas suizas and my husband ordered the barbacoa tacos. Let me say, if you love real homemade refried beans theirs are the absolute best I've had around. The enchiladas were excellent, their verde sauce was delicious and not too spicy. I was expecting the enchiladas to have more cream to them, but the enchiladas were filled with delicious shredded chicken and topped with a Swiss cheese and the verde. My husband loved his barbacoa tacos as well. It came with a dip. The tortillas are freshly made. The tacos come with two tortillas per taco and melted cheese in between. It made it perfect for dipping so your single shell doesn't fall apart. We did see a family order their shrimp tacos, and boy did they look fantastic. We will definitely be back to try them and many other items on their menu. The waitress was very kind, and the service was great! We will definitely be back! Though I'd love it if they had tamales seeing they are listed on their menu. read more

The food is good but the service was horrible. I felt our server put more attention to the other tables that were Spanish. I ordered a margarita and a virgin one for my daughter hers took about 20 minutes to come out and mine didn't come out till I was half way done with my food when I had to ask her it my margarita was still coming. Loved the vibe of the place but the service makes me not wanna go back. read more

Avoid this place with all your heart, with all your soul. And with all your might. Ordered the 20 dollar xtra large margarita. But they still only put one shot in it, same as the small. The waitress was folding napkins and cleaning silverware while we were waiting 4eva for your food. And the prices are CRAZY expensive. read more

Wow! When a friend mentioned that Tequila had the best Mexican food for miles around, we decided to try it. Am I ever glad we did. We had reservations for 7:15, and when we got there it was completely full. We got a friendly greeting, were seated right away, and had a very friendly and professional waitress; she knew just when to leave us alone and when to be available; last minute changes to our orders were no problem. We had Margaritas and the horchata, all good, but then the food, ah, the food. Friends had carnitas, chicken tacos, tacos al pastor, and all were declared delicious. I had the special barbecue beef tacos, and was in heaven! For each one, there were two super crispy, thin tortillas with melted cheese between them; they were filled with LOTS of delicious perfectly spiced meat, lettuce, tomato, onions, and cheese, but the extra special touch was the consomé with herbs served on the side to dip the tacos in! Delicious! I'd eat this every day, if I could. Don't miss eating here when in Lancaster. read more

I've eaten a lot of Mexican food not just growing up but throughout the area (PA, MD, VA). I can't get behind this restaurant manly because of the value and quality of the food. We were a party of 7 (5 adults and 2 kids) and the total ended up messing with me to this day. In the low $200. This is what I usually spend at a nice restaurant in MD or VA. Server did the check though a handheld, didn't tell me there was already a 18% tip and I got the tip notification that only says 10% 15% or 20% or other. Maybe a glitch, but it looks to me you are trying to get a double tip, I had to asked her and she said "yes, the tip is already included". Clicked other and selected 0%. Anyways, I should have asked for a copy of the receipt or a breakdown. It's not about the money but more about the value for me. I understand the restaurant is in business to make money, that's the whole point, but don't overcharge me with subpar food. Atmosphere: Servers little kid running around yelling (ok, that is mean, but I guess she's saving on daycare) Manager in the table behind us working on her computer, and a small shop selling trinkets and candy behind us. Food: Food was ok, but would not come back due to cost vs value Service: Service was ok, not overly friendly, welcoming or attentive read more

I went for the first time today since I was always seeing it super busy. I placed for a to-go order and waited by the bar after being told only 20 minutes at the most. After waiting over 40 minutes I finally asked where my food was and how much longer it would take, I got an attitude and the waitress walked back and forth and never confronted me again about how much longer I was expected to wait. I want to say, I've never spent $76 on food for two people before and when I looked at my receipt it automatically charged me 15% for a tip.. on a to-go order?! I shrugged it off thinking that the food must be good at least. My food came 10 minutes later and I took it home. Overall.. Super disappointed. Food was all dry and flavorless. Like they rushed even though I waited about an hour! I ordered the steak Hawaiian fajitas, super dry steak and I paid an extra $2 for cheese and they forgot it and they also forgot the pineapples .. So I guess I really just got a steak fajita ? Rice was okay, that's the only compliment I can give. My husband got a chicken burrito and also said the same thing. I ordered a piece of the Tres Leches cake and the icing had some funky taste to it. After removing the icing the cake itself wasn't bad, not sure exactly how hard it is though to mess up simple icing... my husband and I both agreed that Plaza Azteca is 100x better and we should have went there instead, at least with there were also would have gotten free chips.. Now let's talk parking. Utterly gross. Accident waiting to happen! They crammed so many "parking spaces" into this area that no one can barely get out. The angle makes it nearly impossible to back out to turn around to the exit. I went into a "no drive-thru" area just to avoid hitting the giant cement boulders behind me and the car next to me. Won't return. read more

I was born and raised in California, and I grew up eating a lot of authentic Mexican food, so I'm super picky with it. I have not been able to find a restaurant in Lancaster that sells shrimp ceviche, let alone many other delicious dishes!
