    Nachos
    Rebecca B.

    I didn't expect to like it here as much as I did. They have their own private parking lot. The ambiance is just as awesome overlooking the river as Docksides and Duke's, but there's not as much outdoor seating. Our server was kind, attentive, and quick. The nachos were awesome and filled us up so much we didn't have room for our entree. The food was so flavorful, and we were able to get 2 additional dinners out of them. If you're a tequila buff, they have a lot of different options. We recommend!

    we ate at Tequila Willie's when it first opened and it was not great, Year later ate there the other day for a friend's bday. Much better experience. menu is still way over complicated. This is not Cheesecake Factory where one gets a huge spiral bound menu. the menu is way to big, small print, weird color. portions for appetizers are way to big and entrees are small portions

    food was delicious and my beverage specialist, Kinsey was personable, professional and easy on the eyes! Will come back again.

    amazing drinks, orange crush and orange margarita were great. bartenders were awesome as always. Me and my dad frequently go and we always have fun there.

    The food at Tequila Willie's is very good Mexican food! The prices and service really fit in with the place. The waitress was very nice, and I would go again. The environment is very nice, there is outdoor seating, too. I vote go here instead of Dockside Willies or Dukes. I do a lot of reviews, and this one I really acknowledge.

    My Second Burger that was made after 11:45 pm when I arrived at 10:30 pm

    Stopped in for a nice birthday dinner for my daughter's 17th birthday,.. and Mannnn WHAT A PARTY FOUL ON MY PART!! To start off,... I ordered the guacamole dip to start us off with but an additional bowl of guacamole but she brings out two full plates of chips and side plates.... Smh how did you get that from an additional bowl of guacamole?? Followed by the server COMPLETELY FORGETTING MY PARTNERS BEVERAGE ALL TOGETHER!!! following by my daughters entire plate including the rice and beans being COLD! My burger first came with plain fries when I asked for seasoned, after once taken back and returned my burger had mayonnaise on it and not mustard and IM HIGHLY ALLERGIC TO MAYONNAISE!!! My partners wings were tasting like pine sol !! SOOO ALL IN ALL... THE LORAX SPEAKS FOR THE TREES, and I SPEAK FOR TEQUILA WILLIES.... THIS SHIT SUCKSSSSSS!!!!

    We started dinner with Chips & Salsa. Which are made fresh the salsa has a distinct lime cilantro taste very good. For dinner I ordered the Jalapeño Burger 1/2 Lb of Black Angus Burger topped with hand breaded Jalapeños, pepper jack cheese, onion straws, lettuce & their bistro sauce on a fresh baked roll I mistakenly ordered a side of fries wow they were huge hot and fresh. This Burger is huge and delicious it's not spicy but it has a great flavor. My wife had the Blackened Shrimp Stax Bowl Spanish Rice, Smoked black beans, Corn, Willies Salsa, fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, fresh avocado,cotija cheese & Lime Crema makes for a large dinner. McKayla our server went above and beyond considering they were a bit busy but she had no problems keeping up and checking up on us! Very pleasant and very efficient! She was an 11 on the 1-10 scale. Tequila Willie's was redone inside and out and was given a southwestern vibe it's booths are very comfortable there is a large bar and plenty of seating they share a parking lot with Dicksude Willie's & Dukes! No room for anything else

    Decent little Mexican place in the Allison Hill section of Harrisburg. It is located on Derry…read moreStreet in a blue & red building with two satellite dishes (see exterior photo). The restaurant itself had a few tables, a frozen ice cream box, video chance games, a huge rack of phone cards and several pictures decorating the walls. Most of the pictures depicted scenes from mexico, such as poncho villa, zapata, rural life, cows, etc... one of the walls was covered in mirrors and had a sombrero hanging on it. They have standard tacos at 2.50 apiece, chicken, beef or pork. We tried several of them. There was also a Torta for 8.50 that was pretty decent. There was some type of hot sauce (Valentina brand) here that that we put on it made it significantly better. The helado de fresa or strawberry ice cream ($1.50) balanced it out. We also had the Bistek Ranchero: it came with 6 yellow corn tortillas, onions, cilantro, beans, rice & lots of beef, mixed with red pepper. That cost 14.00 pretty decent if you ask me. What makes this place stand out in my opinion is the " tostada ceviche de camaron " or lime marinaded seafood salad on a deep fried corn tortilla. This item is occasionally also available at competitors but not nearly as good. 5 Stars, incredible food!

The chips come out PIPING HOT and are fresh fried, as they should be, but seems to be rare for Mexican restaurants in the area these days... the salsa is incredibly good. It is a touch spicy with a little sweetness, but we loved the flavor. The first basket is free (also not always the norm around here) and a second basket is only $1.50 more - that's amazing! We also got a queso con chorizo to share and the small size was PLENTY. We both decided on taco platters and that was a great choice - we got to try a bunch of meats that way. The al pastor was amazing, as was the carne asada, carnitas, and shrimp taco. The tacos were topped with an amazing guacamole sauce. I got corn tortilla tacos and they were perfectly griddled and warm. My husband enjoyed his flour tortilla tacos. The rice and beans were fresh and hot and delicious too. Food came out quick and exactly as we ordered, even with some modifications! We didn't love the additional red sauce in the squirt bottle that you can add to your food, but the salsa verde in the squirt bottle was good. I ordered an extra salsa to add to my tacos instead. For drinks, there's agua frescas and an extensive soda selection in a case to choose from. My husband was happy to see Mexican Coke. Service was great! Overall, we had two taco platters, queso, two drinks, plus an extra chips and salsa for less than $40. You can't beat it. We will be back!!

Décor was the typical Mexican, with over-the-top paint colors. The dining area was spacious. The waitress greeted us with big smiles. We sat ourselves by the window. Immediately we were offered a complimentary serving of chips and salsa. The chips were well made and the salsa was tangy and very appetizing. I made my order almost in no time for the Mole Poblano; my wife ordered Pechuga en Crema con Champiñones. The food came out in about 10 minutes; both dishes came with 4-5 tortillas. Now, the long-awaited mole sauce -- thick, dark, and complex. I watched a YouTube video on how it's typically made, so I had a level of respect and appreciation for it. It tasted like the popular five-spice bean curd jerky Asian snack -- bold and strong. I liked it very much. My wife's cream chicken, while moist, was bland in comparison. If you're like me, you'd be a bit confused when the bill came. The amounts were different from what the menu showed. Basically, the figures on the bill were the inflated prices that included surcharges for paying with a credit card. If you pay cash, you pay the menu prices instead.

    I've had tacos from all over--from the East Coast as far north as New York City, midway in Virginia…read moreBeach, Virginia, and all the way south in Miami, Florida. I can't forget the Midwest, Southern Texas, and everywhere in between, like Austin. Now, the best tacos I've ever had in my life were at Lucy's in LA--but let's not talk about Los Angeles, even though I wish I were there with the palm trees and the ocean breeze, where I don't sneeze because of allergies! The second best I've ever had is at this Mexican spot right off Derry Street in Harrisburg, PA. As soon as you walk in the door, there's a beautiful yellow that automatically makes you feel like you're sitting in the countryside of a sweet Mexican village. Although I haven't been to Mexico yet, I can only imagine how it feels with the beautiful Aztec culture all around, the pictures, and, of course, those wonderful plants that tequila is made from displayed on the wall. When I order, I do it by numbers because I'm not fluent in Spanish yet, but hearing the staff speak Spanish makes me feel like I'm getting the real deal. I always get a Mexican soda or an imported drink so that every bite and sip teleports me right to where the food originated. Now, some people may shy away from this place because of the area it's in, but I guarantee you can call ahead to order or just sit inside. You won't have any problems--the food comes out fast, hot, and consistent every single time. I hope my review helps you pick where you want to eat next!

I ordered 5 tacos: 1 birria, because I'd never tried their version before and wanted to be safe; the other 4 were 2 carnitas and 2 asada. I also ordered a plate of rice and refried beans. The rice isn't your traditional yellow Mexican-style rice; at least, I've never had it like this ever before, and I eat lots of Mexican food. It had corn and pigeon peas in it but was still very delicious. The carnitas and steak tacos weren't my favorite--not bad at all, just not my favorite--but the birria was top-tier A1. Honestly, overall, every single thing was good and worth it. 25 bucks got me 5 tacos stuffed to the brim, a very generous serving of rice and refried beans, with a soda. And the service was great!

We ordered the bibimbap, pork mandu, seafood jeon (pancakes), japchae, Yangnyum chicken, and pork belly with cheese (I over order, every time, all the time ). The bibimbap and pork mandu I didn't try, but my cousin did enjoy it, the seafood jeon was delicious--seafood wasn't over cooked and it was not salty. The japchae noodles seemed a little over cooked, they didn't have the springiness I expect when I chew. Thr Yangnyum chicken was .. well, a little too breaded and fried and not what I expected at all. The sauce was a mix of sour and sweet salty spicy but not like a traditional Korean sweet and sour--I did not care for it at all (seemed Americanized?)--hard pass. The pork belly and cheese was amazing, imagine pork belly and chewy rice kicks in the most amazing not-too-spicy sauce paired with ooey gooey cheese. This alone was worth the trip! Soooo good. I just wished the baby was more cooperative during our dine in so we could have eaten more while it was piping hot. The amazingness of a few of these dishes really still makes this place five stars, especially with the awesomeness of a wonderful server/hostess/owner! I may not make it back here for a year or two but this place is definitely recommended for someone looking for Korean food.
