    Our party of 6 came in and the place was steady busy. World Cup was playing and TV volume was on 11 but it didn't seem to be on everyone's mind. Regardless, the volume with all the hard surfaces made it a little challenging to have any conversation. We started with the house chips and bean dip, grabbed various salsas from the bar and those were mid at best. The salsas could definitely use an improvement - the idea is appreciated but execution felt like poured out of a Sysco gallon bucket. The queso was good and the table side guacamole was fantastic. There wasn't any kind of presentation or "show" but flavor and texture was excellent. I would not eat here and skip that guacamole - it's a must have. We opted for 2 pitchers of margaritas - gold and prickly pear. Gold was a heavy pour and prickly pear was a fave around the table. My battered fish tacos were great - substantial piece of fish and solid execution. Ground beef entrees around the table were not rated well so I would not recommend - bland. I mean, I'd rarely order ground beef personally if I'm out eating Mexican anyway. Service was spot on - the team effort was consistent and they all did a great job - personable and attentive. I don't know what we did to deserve flaming tequila shots after our meal but it was a nice surprise.

    So good

    Service was great and all food was delish. Not one thing was questionable. We had so many options and they were very plentiful and tasty. We had the queso flameado, the birria ramen, the flautas , and the shrimp cocktail. They have a salsa bar to complement all the items. And seasoning is on point in all of them. For dessert we had the choco-flan and it was well executed and tasty made in house. Margaritas were good and fresh and huge. Try the passion fruit so good.

    After a day of volunteering, my friend and I was famished. Using the power of Yelp, Tequilas D Oro was our choice. And what a great choice it was. The interior is spacious, fun and modern. We were quickly seated and started with chips and dip. I say dip because it wasn't salsa, seemed like runny refried beans. Wasn't bad, just unexpected. The food was above average, but the drinks were the star of the show. My friend got the coco loco which is two drinks in one. I got the margaritas sampler. The presentation was so cute and fun. Definitely try this place for fun food and a great drinks.

    Coconut margarita

    Yummy!!!! We had everything from nachos to churros and everything was scrumptious. I can honestly say I have never had a coconut margarita but it was tasty. (Think pina coladaish) The nachos were cheesy and on point. The Alambre Mediterraneo was spectacular and my chicken poblano was super delicious. If you get a chance try the table side guacamole, I didn't get a picture because we devoured it but it was definitely one of the best I've had.

    Bean water- what what!

    I'll admit upfront--I'm tough on Mexican restaurants. I've spent a lot of time in Mexico and eaten well outside the typical U.S. version, so my expectations are probably a little unfair. Started with the peach margarita. I mean... look at it. Absolute showstopper--salted rim, fruit garnish, umbrella, the whole production. But taste-wise? It's a 3 out of 5. Not bad, just missing that punch you expect when it looks that good. Chips came out warm, lightly salted, and honestly--really solid. That's how you start a meal right. The salsa though... wasn't really salsa at all. More like a pleasant surprise that turned into a disappointment on flavor. It tasted like spiced bean water--thin, warm, and just never quite delivered. Not offensive, just nothing to grab onto. Then came the "slopchos." And I'll give credit--these are actually delicious. Great toppings, good flavor, you can see the effort. But here's the issue--nachos are supposed to be eaten with chips, not a fork. The second I need utensils, we've lost the plot. There's a full layer of beans underneath that turns the whole thing into a race against time. Five minutes in and you're not eating nachos anymore--you're managing them. Eat fast or accept your fate. I'll always order a classic crunchy ground beef taco, because sometimes you just want that full-on American version--hard shell, ground beef, lettuce, tomato, cheese. Boom. This delivered exactly what it's supposed to. Cheese enchilada was... fine. Nothing offensive, nothing memorable. It leaned a little too close to that mild, almost Taco Bell-style sauce. Cheese was okay, just didn't elevate anything. Service, though, was a bright spot. Bartender was attentive, brought water with the oversized margarita (smart move), and people kept checking in. This was at 4:30--not exactly peak hours--so that stood out. Overall, this place wins on presentation but plays it safe on flavor. There are definitely things worth ordering, but if you're chasing bold, authentic Mexican flavors, you might leave wanting more. If you go in expecting solid, American-style Mexican food with a few highlights, you'll be happy. Just don't let the visuals fool you into expecting more than what shows up on the plate.

    Enchiladas Verde

    The food was very flavorful!! I got the three layer burrito and it was amazing and felt authentic. The table side guacamole was to die for and the salsas were very good. The margarita was humongous lol but it was very good and had good heat to it. Will def come back here again to get the food and the staff was very friendly and the ambiance was nice.

    Mango margarita and one drink from the margarita flight

    Last minute girls night out on a weekday! We needed a place to go and I wanted a good drink. Yelp brought up this place and we decided to check it out. The building is big and beautiful both inside and out. Its kind of hidden but once you know its there you will never forget! The food and drinks were amazing and I can't wait to go back for another visit! We order the margaritas flight but instead of frozen we asked for it to be on the rocks. When you order it this way, you dont get as many flavors though. We also ordered two additional small margaritas that didn't come to the table looking very small. The drinks were made with fresh fruit so they will have pulp in it but we all enjoyed the drinks. There was a live band playing in the restaurant for the night. They came to the table and sang whatever "mood" of song you wanted. They did a great job so we gave a tip. The server was very knowledgeable and helpful when asked for recommendations. Everyone was quick to assist and friendly. The food and drinks came out quick as well. We ordered shrimp enchiladas, the breaded fish tacos and the shrimp tacos. I loved the breaded fish tacos. The corn and the beans that came on the side had lots of flavor which was really unusual for me. I'm use to most places having bland sides that only taste good when accompanied by the entree. The rice and the beans were so good they could have been served alone and I would have eaten them by themselves! There were three fish tacos and I was almost full after the first one but after drinking more tequila I knew I needed to at least finish one more. This place is another hidden gem that will be added to our list. Looking forward to my next visit!

    Absolutely phenomenal service, outstanding fresh food, and brand new ambiance! What a wonderful experience! As soon as you walk through the door, the staff greet you with smiles. The menu is very large and they have a little bit for everyone. The prices are good for the amount of food received. The quality is phenomenal and with every bit you can taste fresh ingredients. They offer happy hour from 3-5pm Monday through Friday. I did want to mention our server Marlon was great and explained everything with such detail and gave great recommendations. Highly recommend to anyone to come visit Tequilas D Oro! ^.^ We will definitely be back soon.

    Fajitas
    Shamika D.

    I really am glad to jump on the bandwagon here and say that this place is AWESOME! From the moment I stepped through the door everyone was super welcoming and extremely pleasant. We were initially seated next to a large group but I decided to ask about the bar and I'm so glad that I did. Once at the bar I was greeted by not one but two awesome bartenders who made me feel like I had the entire restaurant to myself haha. Extremely enjoyable. Now I will say their menu is HUGE!!! So if you happen to struggle with deciding what to order like I do then get something off of every other page! Lol I had the pleasure of having Omar be my main bartender and waiter for the afternoon and he was fantastic. He suggested drinks to try and they were spot on. I ordered the Molcajete, the Coco Loco and the trip fajitas as well. 10/10!!!

    Joined some friends here for lunch and had a great meal. The food is so fresh. They have a salsa bar and they make the guacamole fresh at the table. I had the American tacos and they were delicious as was the rice and beans. I especially liked the rice. We finished with the churros which were like donuts and were the best churros I have ever had. The service was great and there is plenty of seating. I will definitely be back.

    Birria Tacos
    Erica C.

    Night out with friends and had been on the list. Kicked off with table side guacamole, chips that came with beans. And a salsa bar with some great options. Margaritas- mango, regular, coconut. We ordered mediums and they were super sized. While the size and toppings was a lot, but it was fun and they tasted good. Loved the coconut. Very delicious. We also ordered the esquite (corn dip) which was one of the best I tried. All of us landed on the birria tacos. Savory, lots of meat, served with beans and rice. You get three so naturally some came home. Good vibe as well with both inside and outside seating as well as good service. Will be back and try other options outside of tacos. The menu has a lot, probably best to look in advance.

    Chips salsa, beans and tacos
    Jill W.

    I came here for a quick lunch. The servers attentive and quick. Although I did ask for a side of pico for my entree and it never came. The chips and salsa were delivered immediately upon sitting down, but unfortunately it is not a typical salsa. It was more akin to tahini. I didn't find it complemented Mexican food. The tacos were fine. Rather light on the filling and rather dry. It is a big restaurant and the prices reflect high overhead. I would recommend it if you are looking for a large place for drinks with friends. There are better and Find more authentic restaurants than this one.

    Chicken enchiladas
    Tyiki W.

    I decided to try this Mexican restaurants since I've never been before. When I arrive I really like the way it looked outside the building was really nice and the sign was cute also. Inside was decorated nice they have a large bar. The server was very nice and friendly. When they brought out the chips with the bean dip and nose pasta I was a little bit surprised but then I was quickly told that they have a whole station with different salsas and I was so excited about that. I love different types of salsas. They had different flavor flavors and spice levels it was amazing I love that!! the food was pretty good I ordered the chicken enchiladas. I definitely will be back and probably very soon!

Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. I believe his name was John. He let us know that they just launched this menu. We were a little bummed bc we were looking forward to the strip steak with Bernaise sauce. We started with the fig pizza , meatballs, and bread. Word to the wise because they have an open kitchen, if you run hot be sure to dress appropriately. It gets pretty warm in there. The pizza was delicious. I loved the combo of blue cheese and sweet figs. The meatballs were flavorful and the sauce was really good. I liked the bread plate, just wish there were more dipping options. For dinner we all ordered the strip with the truffle fries and the peppercorn sauce. We really enjoyed the steak, but I liked the one with bernaise better. The steaks were all cooked to our liking. They knew it was my sister's birthday, so they brought out their ice cream with olive oil and sea salt. It's different but super delicious. We will back!

We've been here once before. We really liked it but it's been a while since then. We started with the Pao de Queijo, which is the cheesy bread you usually get at a Brazilian steakhouse. We both love this kind of bread and theirs was fantastic. I ordered the Pinanha Rustica and I am so happy that's what I settled on. I ordered the beef medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. The Chimichurri sauce was good but honestly, the beef didn't need the help. The thing that surprised me the most was how much I loved the Biro-Biro Rice as a side. It was a really unique combo of things I've never had together before. I would probably go back and order an entree of just that if they offer it! My wife ordered the Costela Ao Molha Madeira Com Risotto de Parmesao. She really liked how the risotto was super cheesy. She said it actually reminded her of the cheesy bread. The beef short rib was very tender and juicy. She said it was a simple dish that added up to something special. We rarely order dessert but decided to split the Petit Gateau de Doce de Leite. It was so rich, dense and delicious. The pecan ice cream with it was great as well. It was small but enough for us to split. I'm bummed I forgot to get our servers name because he was fantastic.

The second thing that thoroughly surprised and bothered me was after ordering another round of drinks, the second the drink was put at our table the waitress came over to check us out.

Pleaaaaassssseeeee The food photographs well but oof I couldn't even eat my dish.

    Ate there for the second time last night. This time we dined inside and loved the music and…read moreambience.., but most importantly the food was even better than last time. You have to get the bruschetta as an appetizer. My sons and I had the soup for an appetizer and loved it. My wife had a house salad that was delicious with a homemade garlic vinaigrette. I had the chicken Marsala which was amazing with the house cab I was drinking and my wife had the chicken francese limone. Very tender and flavorful. My son had the lasagna and the other one carbonara with chicken added. They both loved it. The only slight complaint is it took quite awhile for the entrees to come out, the same thing that happened the time we went before. However the service from Joanna, the ambience and the incredible flavors from everything we ordered merit 5 stars.

    Decided to grab dinner tonight. Our first experience at Dolce Vita was lovely. But, tonight…read moreseemed off. They were very busy maybe because of Father's Day, maybe because the rain wasn't conducive to eating on the patio where we were the first visit. It took a 10+ minutes just to have a server stop by. Secondly, they only have QR code menu's but, they have an IPad for those that don't do QR codes. Our server asked if we would like still water or sparkling water. We said just regular water. They mention that the still or sparkling is in a glass bottle for the table. They did not tell us that the bottle was $9 and we could not find it in the menu. I asked toward the end of dinner how much a bottle would have been. We had bruschetta for an appetizer. It was very tasty, but a bit on the soft side. I'm used to bruschetta being served on toasted or grilled bread. We each had a side house salad with our dinners. These were fine. Hubby had chicken Marsala which he had ordered before. Very flavorful! I had Chicken Frances Ala Límon. The top cutlet was browned nicely. The bottom cutlet not so much. The sauce is very lemony which I really enjoy, but both sauces were on the thicker side ... sort of like gravy. Both of us enjoyed the taste but not the heaviness of the sauces. We had to ask for bread that comes with the meal according to the menu. But again, our server who was very sweet was very busy with other tables. I would say the service was definitely not the same caliber as our first visit. For dessert we had the tiramisu! My husband's favorite dessert. He's eaten ALOT of tiramisu in his life. This was his favorite! Although we were both surprised to see it served with broken up raspberries but it did make the plate look lovely. We sat at a high top near the bar. The seats were very comfortable. There was "live" music but not at all what I would have expected. A young woman sang along to tracks that I believe were from YouTube as every time she'd go to another song, there was a commercial that would come on first. It seemed she might have a nice voice but it was hard to tell as her system was a bit lacking. Not at all what I had seen on the website or what others commented on. I would suggest not having live music if it will be like what we had tonight.
