This place is totally insane. Can we talk about how it's in an abandoned hotel, and there are always luxury SUVs escorting very well-dressed people in and out. Pro-tip, go alone, it's a fun scene. Food - A Service - A+ Atmosphere - A++ because it's a vibe read more

Tequila's Mexican Restaurant - Jumbo margarita - Mexican Near Me - Farmington, New Mexico

The restaurant is in the same building as The Region Inn. Not sure if this place is currently being renovated. The restaurant is a quaint and clean. They were good at keeping the carpeted floors clean of any debris. Service: Everyone, from hostess to waitress staff, were very nice. Food: They first provided chips and salsa (which was very spicy). We then ordered the Queso Fundido (melted cheese w beef and pico de gallo which came with your choice of flour or corn tortillas. We didn't want to eat all of it because of our main course. I ordered the chicken quesadillas (came with 8 pieces). Other half ordered the Tacos Ranchero, which came with refried beans and rice. These portions were huge. I'm not a huge eater and I was only able to eat 3 pieces of quesadillas. Hubby had only 2 tacos. We had to take our food back to the hotel bc the portions were huge. The big came out to almost $50. The food was very good. Would definitely return. read more

This was a really nice restaurant to eat at. I'm a bodybuilder and on prep so I'm not able to enjoy food at most places, they were very nice to allow me to bring my own chicken that I had weighed out and made me a plain salad to put it on top of. My family also enjoyed their meals so much that they look forward to our return to Farmington to eat there again. We stayed at the wyngate that it is attached to the restaurant and it was so convenient and they also offered us a discount for staying there! 10/10 read more

We have gone there to have .99 cent tacos. for a year and always ordered 2 soft tacos made with flour tortillas. Manager came out and said it would be higher for flour tortillas and we said ok. She ate the tacos. We received the check and those 2 tacos with flour tortillas were 4.00 dollars each. So 6.00 dollars for 2 flour tortillas. Shes 92 years old can't eat hard shells. Crazy right. read more

The service was not the best and the over cooked Mexican pizza was even worse! They put me at a table in the hallway which irritated me because there were plenty of booths! I counted at least 12 servers and it took me 30 mins to get my food! The beer was the best part of the meal! Won't be returning read more

Nice friendly atmosphere. Food was great and service excellent. Everything one looks for in a restaurant.

Food was not the best. Rice was so old. Service. Omg the man who served us attitude was horrible when I told him I didn't have my ID not that I even ordered anything he started going off saying I can't drink my husbands and I literally wasn't going to. I ordered water with lemon. Should have had better service for sure. Also the Hosts were horrible. Don't even acknowledge you when you walk in or talk to you. All I got told was follow me as the girl kept just chatting with her coworkers. The ambience was ok though. Won't be going back. Definitely not this food critics top choice in this town. 2/10. read more

Very good ~ Service was terrific ... even when I arrived 7 minutes before closing. Food (grilled flank steak) was great with great portions. Marg was also great, thanks to the guidance from another dining customer. A nice, welcome, experience after a long motorcycle ride. read more

Excellent food and service. The servers check on you frequently to make sure everything is ok.

Excellent take-away. We are two, so chicken fajitas with refried beans. And the chicken taquito appetizer. Plenty-Plenty. Yum Both came with sour cream and guacamole. The only minus was only 3 tortillas for the fajitas. Should have been six. If I order this again I ll ask for double corn tortillas. I would def go back for a second night. Maybe dine in. Very cute decor and lots of service staff.. . read more

Great food stopped in for some takeout to eat on our way back home after a long day on the San Juan. It was perfect enjoyed every bite ! Even the leftovers were worthy! I recommend to all who love authentic Mexican food!seems like a family ran establishment. Had a homeless person come up to my car door and aggressively ask me for money and to buy him food told the gal inside and her father the owner came right out and was ready to kick ass! 4stars read more

The fajitas were best seasoning we have tried we took all the food was great. . The service was a hard working group eager to make sure we had everything it seemed like a family run place, such a kind group we hope they make it many years. The ambiance family style, I was comfortable when the big table next to us had clasped hands praying before they ate. Sopapillas to go to have with our hot tea. It was a peaceful pleasant evening read more

Let's start with the chips and salsa, chips were hot, golden, crispy, not oily and seasoned perfectly combined with very tasty salsa with just the right amount of heat. Ordered the ground beef chimichanga lunch special. It was a good sized portion for me but I don't eat a lot so might not be enough food for some. My only complaint is that they put lettuce, sauce and cheese on top of the crispy chimichanga so it actually makes it somewhat soggy. Wait staff is very friendly and attentive. Great service and good food. It's attached to your Region Inn. read more

I've been here a few times now every time I come to Farmington for a work-related matter. It's so homey and welcoming. If you like a no-fuss Mexican food place, this is it. Food here is awesome! Staff are so incredibly nice and accommodating. Thank you so much for taking care of me here! read more

Love their chips and the salsa is very good. Friendly and very attentive staff. Love their chimichangas and mushrooms

Stayed in the hotel across the street who recommended this place for dinner. We did not realize that the portions are HUGE because my husband ordered the combo appetizer and we each ordered a plate. With that in mind, it took us 3 meal times to finish our food. It was all so delicious, different and worth the value! Staff is very much on it when it comes to getting us seated, drinks filled, and tables cleaned and ready foe the next patrons. What a gem read more

Mediocre food and service over price sweet and sour margaritas. Our server definitely speaks Spanish but refused to speak Spanish to us, love to practice my Spanish as much as I could. read more

Rant time... Language barrier....is....an....issue....here. We just experienced it, and when I attempted to engage the staff with my limited hispanic language skills (conversational), I got nothing but doe-eyed stares, and docile head-shaking. I don't know about you, but when I engage with someone who isn't totally familiar with my (English) language, I try to accommodate as much as I can to help when they are in need. Spanish speaking folks do not follow that level of graciousness/decorum. If you don't congegate all the verbs, utilize and stress the correct masculine or feminine articles of definition, and speak the EXACT way they do, you are completely dismissed--yet they damn well know what you are trying to ask. I've had/have several Mex friends over the decades who have heard my lamentations; and they've smiled, and said, 'Yup...' This has happened to me all over the continent. And when I tried to explain to the hostess (who must have known the most English), I got an earful of nothing but fast-talking Mex out of her--I'm supposing--because I was trying to attempt their 'perfect' language. All the while giving me a smarmy face when I could not keep up with her. Having enough, we got up to leave. She stopped us before we could get out the door, asking in completely broken English what was wrong? As you read my comments, are you following me on this? I am expected to understand her horribly broken English, yet she will not reciprocate with my broken Spanish? Ridiculous... But my son was 'starving,' and convinced me to laugh it off because of his traveler's hunger. Not that this matters much anymore with this review, but the food was pretty disappointing for New Mexico. I expected grandma gringo, with it attached to our hotel, but had hopes for something that would represent the Southwest a little better. It was similar to Mex I've had in Western Canada. Being tired after a 400-mile+ drive, I wasn't about to argue any further. You can imagine the level of disappointment I had with this entire experience... Word to the folks who may come here: just point to the menu item you want when you order. Or better yet, visit a different Mex joint in town. I wish we did... read more

First time here. Don't understand the 3.5 rating but the food is great and the service was good. Our server was training someone who will be better then him. The food was slow today but the servers explained that we were put in after a party of 25. Which everyone should understand that takes time. Nice slow paced atmosphere. read more

Tequila's Mexican Restaurant - Fish Tacos. Absolutely delicious. - Mexican Near Me - Farmington, New Mexico

Charge for chips even when you buy salsa and queso and only give you a small bag of chips, not even enough for a person. chimichangas have no rice and beans. Expensive for decent food at best. read more

This place was NOT worth the money. I remembered going here and I liked it before they changed. We had asked for more chips and they threw a whole fit about it but keep in mind other Mexican restaurants in the area do not do the same and are more than happy to do it, so I'm not sure why they were giving us attitude for it. Not only were they rude to us but they were also rude to the table next to us and continues to mock and make fun of them in Spanish because they did not like the food and how they were being treated which I completely understand because I didn't like it either and the waitresses would rather be on their phone and taking pictures than DOING THEIR JOB and helping customers. Never again!! IF YOU WANT MEXICAN FOOD GO SOMEWHERE ELSE BECAUSE THIS PLACE WILL TREAT YOU LIKE SHIT. read more

This is where you come for hand crafted Margaritas! I recommend the jumbo! Freshly squeezed lime juice and fun to watch at the bar all the care and steps to make your drink. Plenty of Mexican beers. I'm laughing at the other reviews! This place is called "Tequila's, they speak English, and you ordered an Amaretto Sour? Come on! Go somewhere else. This place is true to its name! Tequilas! I like the food. Big selection and large portions but it's not the GOAT. It's Mexican for an American palette. I had fish tacos - 3 fried tilapia tacos, a salad, and rice - great value. The queso undid was sizzling delicious although I wish the chorizo had more kick . I get friendly service although sometimes I have to flag their attention. Festive environment. The first Yelp review on this page is a 2 star from 2011? I realize this restaurant is unclaimed but come already with your Yelp algorithms! read more

Friends love this place! Service was terrible. Server was insolent. Food was ok. Marg was ok but not great

I will no longer sample Mexican food while traveling because it is too hit or miss. I missed again with Tequila's in Farmington New Mexico. The restaurant is located in a hotel and it looks nice from the outside and the inside was nice also. I ordered beef fajita's since it seemed a safe choice and an ice tea. The tea was good but it would be the only one I would get since I wasn't offered a refill by my waiter. When my fajitas arrived there was a plate with pico, rice, refried beans, sour cream and guacamole and a plate with the steaming hot beef fajita meat. I had to ask for a plate to use to put the fixings in the tortillas. The fajitas were not so great although there was a heaping helping. My waiter was terrible, I had to ask for a plate to eat on, my waiter never asked if I wanted a refill of my ice tea and I had to ask the lady busing the tables for my check. Food was average at best and the service from my waiter was terrible. read more

Average. Big portions but nothing special. Restaurant was very crowded. To meet the 75% capacity rule they opted to crowd two rooms (one a tented patio) and closed off a third room instead of spreading people out. Our table was less than a foot from another table. Had to ask twice for water. Waitress got our second drink order all wrong. Our food came but we had no utensils or napkins. Had to ask for those too. Wait staff was nice but clearly overworked. Pass. read more

Good food. Service is always good.Ambiance is nice. One of my favorite stops when I am in the area

I don't understand the 3.5 star rating because I thought this place was fantastic. We were seated immediately at around 6:15 in the evening and got food within 20 minutes. The cheese dip was amazing, the food portions were huge and tastes great! I got the combo dish and definitely overdid it by ordering the grande. Best Mexican place we've been to in awhile. read more

I'm not going to lie, when I pulled into this place after following directions on my GPS, my heart sank when I saw that it was attached to a hotel. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in and it was full of locals--a very good sign! They set a basket of warm chips and a little carafe of salsa in front of me. Normally, I'd not be tempted, but I tried a chip with some salsa and BAM! I was hooked. This is some of the spiciest, most flavorful salsa I've ever had. I wish I could buy bottles of it! I told myself I'd only eat one chip, but i ended up eating a third of the basket...it was that good. Ok, onto the salad. I ordered the deluxe taco salad with ground beef, no shell with sides of red and green. Firstly, let me say that this is not what you'd normally expect from New Mexican green chile...it tasted more like a tomatillo lime sauce, so I skipped it. The red chile was great though. The salad itself was delicious and satisfying and came out lickety-split. Not to mention my entire meal was only $5.21! What?! Don't miss this place! read more

Great margaritas and awesome queso dip. Salsa was more flavorful than the average Mexican restaurant salsa and chips were warm. After gorging ourselves on all that the two of us split the Chile Verde- tender and delicious! Would definitely come again when we pass thru again. Oh and the service was excellent, too! Attentive but not not smothering, especially our main server, Nora! read more
