Great food and outstanding service. This is THE go-to restaurant of any type in this area of Cocoa. Tonight's dinner was a Carnita Chimichanga which was bursting with flavor. Add to this a staff who really cares and it is a true winner of a restaurant. read more

Every single morsel of food was delicious including the chips and salsa. There are lots of specialty options that include tableside, guacamole and flaming chicken or steak. Don't underestimate this restaurant. Located in a shopping plaza! It is a truly wonderful experience. read more

Food was amazing it came out quick and perfectly as always...the only thing was service wasn't good our server was disrespectful and not managing of her customers I asked her something and she gave attitude. Our server Nevaeh we had her before and she did great but just change in attitude can make a big difference.After my experience I wouldn't want her as our server again. read more

What a great place for Mexican food! We were sat quickly, chips and salsa were immediately delivered to the table and a server appeared to take our drinks almost as soon as we sat down. The margarita was good and bonus- they had Intracoastal's Dragon Point on tap. The food was delivered quickly and it was hot. Everything was delicious but what stood out was the chorizo and the guacamole. Both were outstanding! Our server was very friendly and gave great suggestions. If you like spicier food ask to try some of the other salsas they have hiding in the back- the salsa they brought to the table was good but mild. The prices were very reasonable and we can't wait to come back. read more

This place was amazing! It's in a strip mall. The inside is beautifully designed and there is plenty of seating. I went around lunch time and it wasn't super busy. The service was great - they let you customize your options with no irritation which is always nice. They brought tortilla chips and a mild salsa to the table. I didn't mind it as I don't like spice but someone I was eating with wanted a spicier one and they nicely brought one out. We participated in taco Tuesday so it was I think $7 for 3 tacos. I got one chicken and two ground beef. The ingredients were fresh, tacos were filled with just the right amount and there was little to no grease. The tacos came with lettuce and cheese on top. The tacos didn't come with sides due to the deal so I ordered a side of refried beans which were just as delicious. Go here if you're in the area. You won't regret your choice!! read more

I stumbled upon this, while house hunting. I met the owner and she was so sweet. I told her I had to come here since she had something I don't normally see in Virginia. Healthy tacos. It was late so I didn't want anything heavy. OMG! They were amazing!!! I got the chicken lettuce wraps!! Very fresh and tasty ingredients. I couldn't finish them. Salsa & chips was fresh and perfect. I cant wait to try the fresh ice cream next door!!! The people who wrote bad reviews are probably used to the Americanized Mexican w lots of cheese & lots of oil. I actually just ate Mexican for lunch down the road & it was nothing to write a review about. read more

We chose this place for a birthday lunch with colleagues today + I was very impressed. Food was delicious, staff was super friendly and attentive. We will be choosing this as our new "place" for all of our business lunch meetings! read more

Great food, great service, great timing! Perfect place to pop in for a quick meal, or enjoy dinner and drinks with friends. Decorated well, super clean, a large menu for both food and drinks. If we stop through Coco Beach again, we'll come back! read more

Tequila Veintiuno - Mexican Near Me - Cocoa, Florida

My sister and I ordered the strawberry agua fresca with light ice and it had an awful chemical taste to it. I asked if they could switch it for the horchata and the manager came to ask what the problem was. She came to us very rudely and immediately it felt like she wanted a conflict, which is so strange because it really wasn't that big of an issue. I explained that it tasted chemical-like and she said "it's just strawberry and water" and I just responded that I didn't think it tasted right. She aggressively chucks the drink in the trash bin and I get back an horchata FULL with ice. Overall, not a good customer service experience. Maybe an off night, but not cool. read more

This was my first time trying this authentic Mexican restaurant and it was delicious! Only about a 40 minute drive from Orlando and it will be worth it! It's bigger inside than I thought it was going to be, which is I am sure great when it gets busy! There is a huge bar to sit at as well. We started with the guacamole which is made fresh and at the table side so you really get the whole experience! They have so many different margaritas to choose from-- frozen, regular, lots of flavors and even ones made fresh with lime juice and agave (that's what I had). They are pretty strong margaritas as well without even tasting it! They continually bring refills on chips and salsa, which is important! Their menu is HUGE so you will definitely be able to find something! My sister and I split the fajitas for two and let me tell you, the chicken was to die for! Freshly cooked, great texture and seasoning and I was excited we had leftovers so I could eat it the next day. The servers were very attentive and made sure everything was perfect! I will definitely take a trip back here soon! read more

Wonderful fresh Mexican food. The chips seem freshly made and the margaritas surely always please and get the job done. Best by the pitcher.

Didn't like the food at all and the service was not great. I believe we had a new server so I will not blame the restaurant for the service but the food wasn't good. read more

A bit disappointed. Food was oily, service was good. Interior was nice, but that's it. read more

Horrible experience. Not only did the owner slam a serving tray on the table behind us and yelled Jesus Christ but offered 15% off the bill but over charged on the margaritas to make it not 15 percent off. The staff looked scared the whole time and I do not blame them! This lady is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs! We got cut off from salsa and charged for spicy salsa. We waited a hour just for drinks! We had mold from the ice machine in our drinks. The owner had the hostess take her dog out to go to the bathroom outside. Absolutely insane! read more

They need get their act together, manager/owner sat at a table near the entrance eating and drinking beer while staff seemed to struggle Food was average, service poor - had to get up to find our waitress to pay and she was sitting at a table chatting it with the manager/ owner read more

We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Ambiance was great, service was kind and quick, restaurant was clean, and food was delicious. We will be back :). Their chips were fresh which I appreciate. That can make or break a Mexican restaurant. We had their guacamole too and it was flavorful and delish! Prices were great. read more

Tequila Veintiuno - I had the shredded beef tacos. Super yummy. - Mexican Near Me - Cocoa, Florida

Great food but very small. We had the quesadilla on the border and it was really good! Good chips and salsa too! Margaritas were also quite good! read more

Terrible experience. say down and ordered drinks, look across from us and there is a dog in the chair. That has pretty much become the normal around here however an employee came by, petted the dog, sat at the next table and immediately started rolling silverware. Sign as you walk in lists specials, we always try to order specials. We we're not given the special price on drinks, asked about it and was told the sign stated it was only lime. We paid and on the way out I took a picture of the sign, which did not state only lime, showed it to the waitress. The manager walked over and I showed her the picture. In the end she said they would have to take it off the next visits, they couldn't refund. There will not be a next time. On a happy note, the waitress was very kind and did a good job. read more

Their nachos do not disappoint! Every time we have gotten them be it for takeout or eating in the restaurant, they always hit the spot! I hope they continue to provide delicious food for as long as they can! If you haven't tried their nachos please do so, built your own steak or chicken or whatever you like they are amazing! read more

Great lunch specials! Very pretty - Pictures don't do justice. Definitely hope to return.

This place is a regular stop for us. Usually it is a 5 star experience. Tonight was an anomaly. The food was GREAT. Service, slow, inattentive. Ask for more chips, after paying for a big bowl of quest and get a half-filled basket. Empty soda glass the last half of our meal. BUT, right at the end, a different server came over to help. Big smile, courteous and helpful. "Zy," is the only reason I am giving 3 stars. It would have been 1 star but Zy's last minute help, saved the day. Will be back. read more

Terrible small portion taste like leftovers. Came outta cans, worst place to eat pure crap, lazy sloppy people....

Stopped in for lunch and it was Taco Tuesday-delicious! We also ordered a rice bow, shredded chicken, beans, rice, fresh avocado, cheese & lettuce, we shared and loved it. read more

Hand made margaritas are good, Service is good. Food is not good. Still puking from eating the street corn and tostones. August 3, 2024 is when we dined in. Just stopped in on the way home for appetizers. I seem to always get sick from eating here. We keep going back in hopes the food would get better. I did let the waitress know that they need to check food dates/times and temperatures. Health department should probably do a random check or maybe Gordon Ramsey do a pop-up visit. I do not believe the food is fresh. read more

I had an extremely bad experience with their service. The staff completely ignored me, even though I was clearly waiting for assistance at the bar. I eventually walked out because no one approached me; the staff were too busy sitting in a booth, laughing and giggling with each other. I do not recommend this place at! read more

Came here on a Saturday evening, and were seated right away. It was moderately busy. The ambiance of the place is wonderful, it very colorful and their Halloween/ dia de los muertos decor was fantastic. Service was quick, but the food was not up to par. They placed seasoned fried rice with peas inside the burrito, which did not go well since there were too many flavors competing with the meat at that point. The meat (I had chicken) was seasoned well on its own but was overpowered by the fried rice. Their frozen mango margarita was good, it was not too sweet. My husband also had a burrito and he was not impressed. I think it was an okay experience but I don't think we'll be back here. read more

Great food and service! Will be back for sure! Carmen knew exactly what we should get being 1st timers. Margaritas were fantastic! Guacamole was destroyed before I could get a photo. Great job! read more

Stopped in here for some food after hitting KSC. The carnitas was delightful--soft and falls apart in your mouth. Great price and good service. Only complaint was all the food was under-spiced, but i hear that's common in Florida. read more

We did takeout and this is the first Mexican takeout we've done that we received no chips. The grilled corn was excellent. The queso dip came in a tiny container and with no chips. Similar to the size a side of sour cream would come in. And came with no chips The pico was also a tiny container and looked more like salsa. The chicken fajitas were a dry and over cooked. The steak fajitas were ok. The carne asada tacos were good. We are maybe 10 minutes from the location if there is traffic (no traffic) today but everything was cold except for the grilled corn. Not hot and not luke warm but cold. We had to wait for the order so it's not like it was sitting around. I think this is more of a go have a few margaritas and then eat kind of place. read more

We have been to this place so many times. Even when they first opened we supported them. The food has been amazing and prices are great. Even though we have had great food consistently there, the prices have gone up, the waits have gotten longer and the service is horrible. It would be better as a quick service as the wait staff come up to your table without an introduction and ask what you want. After they put it in the computer, you will never see them again. When you have issues like not getting your food they are no where to be found. Food has started to come out cold if your server is responsible for it. I question the management of this place as they do not have a regular bartender handling the bar. My suggestion is to never sit at the bar. You will never get service or food. read more

Manager came out to talk to use and was nice and very respectful. They care about their customers! Food was delicious! And the ambience is great with soft music, great lighting, and fresh air conditioning. read more

In our quest for good Mexican food, my wife and I stopped in to Tequila Veintiuno on a rainy Sunday afternoon for lunch. The atmosphere is very appealing for a strip mall restaurant, not too loud, and the bar area has really nice lighting. We took quite awhile to peruse the extensive menu, and our server gladly pointed out several favorites. It was when our food arrived that we were rather dismayed. My carnitas were several chunks of warm roasted pork and a large portion of onions. The pork was not crispy as is normal for carnitas, and there was no garnish of any type -- no lettuce, sour cream, tomatoes, cheese, cilantro, anything that could have brightened the plate and been added to the tortillas. The pork itself was very plain, with no evidence of real seasoning. I also ordered an a la carte cheese enchilada, and while the red sauce was tasty, the enchilada itself was room temperature and the cheese inside was skimpy and not melty at all. My wife's steak fajitas came out in a larger portion on a hot platter. They were average in taste, but again lacking any real sense of Mexican seasoning. In many restaurants this dish is presented with a side dish of garnishes that can be added, but again that was not the case here except for three tortillas. We both had the yellow rice and beans which we deemed fair. It's a shame that for such an appealing atmosphere and with such good service that the food was really just fair. We invest a lot of calories in Mexican food so it isn't something we do frequently. We felt these calories were wasted at Tequila Veintiuno. read more

Great locally owned spot. Carmen, the owner, chatted with us, explained her experience in the industry, and her reasons for menu items. Was great to learn about this restaurant that's been open only 13 days! We had a pitcher of margaritas, the queso, Tequila 21 Parillada, and the Shrimp fajitas. Note...the fajitas come with sour cream, guacamole, & lettuce (aka guacamole salad) OR beans & rice. I paid the upcharge & had all three. Was super great! We'd certainly be back often if we lived in the area. Wishing Carmen & her staff all the luck & success. Go check them out! read more
