Absolutely amazing! If you want to enjoy some real good food-don't even think twice,come to Tequila's and you'll understand what's up! Everything was great!!! Seafood soup-my personal recommendation read more

Always the best service and good Mexican food in the Nashville West area. I've been to many Mexican restaurants in my time. I know the deal and this is the place to go. The ambiance is very nice and pleasant. Host is to. Parking is perfect. Portions are plentiful and fresh. Green light. Almost certain you will agree. Have fun. Danny. read more

Best Mexican lunch we've had in West Nashville and we have been to nearly all of them! Chicken taco had seasoned chunks of chicken that was moist and not greasy at all. Chips and taco shells tasted super crisp and fresh. The enchilada sauce had a deep, rich flavor and the rice was perfect. The house salsa is mild of course, but has a great flavor. The salsa picosa is spicy and thick (as it should be) and has a fantastic smoky flavor. The guacamole was flavored nicely as well with lots of cilantro and some white onion. The service was friendly and attentive and the new tables and booths were clean and comfy! It's been redecorated beautifully. This place is ten times better than it was under the previous ownership. We can't wait to come back and try the camerones a la diabla! (Fingers crossed for habanero sauce!) *Update- hot shrimp is made with chipotle sauce, but it's cooked well with lots of sliced onion! read more

Always delicious, flavorful food, friendly staff and the Coolest drink options around!! Don't hesitate to enjoy this gem.

The food was good, however I got food poisoning the next day so I will never be back. This also happened to my gf who I was with at the time. read more

Underwhelming, but sometimes the only "best" option on Doordash. The last few times have been bad to say the least. Brown Guacamole and lukewarm temps. Have never been to the actual location so three stars for the benefit of the doubt that eating there might be a better experience? Brown Guacamole is unacceptable though (photo attached). read more

Tequila's - Fajita Nachos Supreme with the last two times' signature brown guacamole - Mexican Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This place is the most real deal local Mexican we've found within decent proximity of downtown. The staff is so friendly, the food and drinks reasonably priced, and the quality is fantastic. The kitchen moves fast and service is always so prompt! We come here often and start with the guacamole casero- a freshly made guacamole that is some of the best you can get in Nashville with large chunks of the freshest avocado. I am loyal to the pollo con hongos but you really can't go wrong- fajitas, arroz con pollo, shrimp chimichanga- I truly haven't tried something here that we haven't liked. For drinks, of course the margaritas are a must- on Sundays they do pitchers for $17 and they are delicious and quite strong. I've also had the sangria which is fantastic. We frequent this place because we truly can't find a better, well rounded local Mexican spot- delicious food and drinks, standout service, and the nicest people! You will not regret trying Tequilas and you'll likely become a regular like we have! read more

Thank you Yelpers for helping me to find this restaurant. I was unsure of the seating because of COVID restrictions but the restaurant is very spacious. Tables are sectioned allowing for social distancing. Indoor and outdoor dining available. Staff is very friendly/attentive and help explained items on the menu. Entrees reasonably priced. The food was delicious and served within a reasonable time. Nice atmosphere for kids. Parking is plenty. read more

Went back today and a 32 oz michelada was $17 dollars! Fajitas was $17 for single serving. House Margarita large was $12. Use to be one of our favorite spots. Sunday lunch and the place empty! For these prices we might as well go to an upscale restaurant! Very disappointed! Will not be back!!!! read more

I drove out of the way to this place bc they were one of the few Mexican restaurants that was open for take out that would answer the phone. I wasnt sure why the expect but they seemed pretty authentic over the phone. I ordered authentic tacos. 2 chicken, 1 steak. They were amazing! The corn tortillas were the best I've had in a long time. Large to go marg was $15 and huge. It was nice and strong also. Wish it wasn't so far from where I live but I'll be making a trip back soon. read more

Tequila's - a hand pointing at a receipt - Mexican Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

So I'm missing this place so much during this safer-at-home ordered. It made me realize I've never left a yelp review! Tequila's is located right next to Big Lots and At Home, easily missable from the Main Street because it's back in the corner. The drink specials here are great. Different special every day. The staff are personable and hardworking. At this point, I'm a regular and they seem to know the orders of our whole crew (of 6 people). There's typically a short wait for food, even when they're busy, and everything is fresh. I recommend the chorizo con queso, the Texas burrito, and a monster margarita! read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant in West Nashville. Never have to wait long for your food, the ingredients are always fresh, and the staff is very friendly. I love all of their burritos, the fajita and Texas to be more specific. The margaritas are also amazing. read more

Took my sister for her birthday this year (which we've done for the 2nd year in a row now), and as usual, Tequila's did not disappoint!! I want to especially recognize our waiter Isaac for taking such great care of us. We will be back as always!!! read more

Will never go here again. Got the 32oz bud light. The glass broke from them serving it too hot out of the dish washer. Glass all over me. Had to go home and shower and change my entire outfit. Yet they still charged us for the appetizer we ate. (Didn't get to our main course). Bad bad bad bad bad bad management. Do not recommend. read more

Sadly going downhill like an avalanche. This was my absolute favorite restaurant for several years. It had so much small business charm and the menu as well as the ambiance just kept getting better as they revamped the menu with interesting and tasty meals and fun dry ice drinks. But over the course of this calendar year they have revised the recipes on the same menu and now what used to be the best Sopa de Pollo in Nashville is full of filler vegetables like potatoes and broccoli and carrots. I would much rather get a smaller serving than one that was more like stew than a spicy clear broth soup. One time it was so salty I literally could not eat it - at all - and I am far from being a picky eater. Another time I ordered another favorite, the Pina Loca Changa, and what had been a truly delightful meal came out with no lobster AT ALL in my meal and instead had a variety of chunks of fish and a few shrimp in there and the sauce was changed to some kind of chicken gravy and no longer resembled the delicious pineapple sauce. My dining partner on the other hand ordered something that did not list lobster in it and it had the exact same chicken gravy like sauce but lo and behold there was all my lobster in that persons meal. Why on earth dumb down the recipes like that. Why not just hire competent cooks to make the meals correctly???? It was rapidly becoming a cult favorite in Nashville and now it's hardly worth the drive over there and I notice it's nowhere near as busy as it used to be. I hope they fix it. I'll give them a few more tries before I move on to a replacement. Breaks my heart. read more

We got the fajitas for 2 and it was delicious! The menu said you could substitute Romain lettuce for tortillas but when it came to the table it was a plate of shredded ice berg lettuce. Not very easy to wrap fajitas in shredded lettuce. Also got charged $1.25 for the lettuce. The people working there are all very nice and the food came very quickly! read more

First time to have food poisoning in a while but definitely worst experience in a while

Worst service I have ever experienced in the restaurant industry. I came to this place regularly on my lunch breaks because the food is great, the service is usually good, but I will not be coming back after today. Our waiter argued with my boyfriend and I when we told him both of our orders were wrong. We were not trying to argue, we were being respectful and instead of accepting the fact that our order was wrong he began to argue with us telling us that we ordered the wrong thing?? When both of us haven't taken one single bite of the meal we were given- because it wasn't what we wanted to pay for and we didn't want to eat it! Then he decides to bring the manager to talk to us and the MANAGER takes his side immediately and starts arguing with us. For no reason. The fact that the manager had horrible customer service is wild. What an idiot. I work in customer service and I have NEVER argued with a customer no matter how much I think I'm right. We literally we were not mad either, we were just asking for our correct order instead of what we got. We both wanted a chicken rice & queso burrito. Very simple. We just walked out. L staff. Went to Taco Bell instead and their service was better lol. I had this experience at the location off of Annex Ave by Nashville West. Good thing there's another location! Go to the other location in Bellevue for better service. read more

very standard local mexican restaurant, but nothing wrong with that!! the service was amazing & the margs came with a sparkler for the 4th of july! very fun staff & will be back in the future read more

Haven't been in person, but have been satisfied with their takeout. We usually get the chicken fajitas, which are pretty solid. We've tried the chips, queso, and guac and they're not the best we've had around town. Not terrible, but maybe average. All things considered, Tequila's is a solid takeout option for decent, affordable mexican. read more

Exactly what I would expect for the average Mexican restaurant. Nothing unexpected on the menu. Food quality was good and good value for the price read more

Since El Rio closed in Frisco, Summit County, Colorado, I have waited 10 years to find a Mexican restaurant this good! It is fine Mexican cuisine, not what you expect at your every day Mexican restaurant, but at cantina prices. This place is simply amazing. The salsa is excellent, and they have different flavors and heat levels upon request, and the chips are almost too hot to pick up when the first bring them out. My cousin got the Mexican beef asada salad, which she said was as good or better than any she's ever had. I chose the pick three A La Carte items for $10, and of the 8 items available, all of which looked great, I chose the chicken stuffed chili relleno, the bean guacamole tostada, and the beef tamale. Wow. Wow. This is not your standard deep-fried buyer's remorse chili relleno. It was excellent, and all the ingredients were quality. The melted, toasted cheese on top was not cheap liquid Mexican restaurant cheese. It was something you would buy in the specialty cheese section of the grocery store, and shred over top of your food, and bake until perfectly done. The tostada was brought to me by mistake honestly, because I ordered the chalupa, as Chalupa's and tamales are a little less common in standard Mexican restaurants. That being said, I wasn't disappointed. I just have a reason to go back sooner than later and try that authentic chalupa! Now let's talk about this tamale: you've never had a tamale like this. Your neighborhood Mexican cook may make them just as good or better by your standards, but it was as beautiful as it was delicious. This is a must try. I live in Knoxville now, but you can bet if I eat at one restaurant the next time I come to Nashville, it will be this one. read more

Tequila's - Restaurant front & patio - Mexican Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Excellent!!!!! Just found this place when we left Costco and wow it's so good. Super nice staff. Great food! Great margaritas !

After reading Sheena's awesome review and realizing that Tequilas was 2 minutes from my house, I made it a point to check this place out ASAP. Located in the shopping center with BIG LOTs, it can be a bit difficult to find tequilas. However, it is so worth it. We were immediately greeted and seated on a Thursday night at 6pm. Chips appeared shortly thereafter, and I have to say their chips and salsa are the best Ive had in Nashville. Chips were thin and not oily at all while salsa was hot! Thursday night special was a pitcher of margs for $12 which is a steal as one glass is about $5. Im looking forward to Tuesdays $2.50 margaritas! We ordered the molcajete (steak) and a bowl of the chicken soup. You can definitely tell the stock was home made! My only complaint is that it is not very filling for $7.99. The molcajete on the other hand was a steal for $13. It came with tortillas and beans/rice on the side. It was piping hot and beautifully displayed. Overall we thought the food was really good with great prices. There are a ton of dishes we want to come back and try! This will certainly be our go- to Mexican place in West Nash or all of Nash at that. Customer service was also fantastic. Highly recommend! read more

It had been a really long time since I'd eaten at Tequila's and I gave them another try on Saturday. We ordered cheese dip like any good American, and it was perfect! Good consistency; not too runny, and the flavor was great! I loved the salsa but it was in a really tiny dish and we had to ask for a lot more of it! I love hot salsa, and this one was pretty hot. If you aren't a fan of heat, this would be too much for you and you should probably ask for a mild salsa. But I loved it! For entrees I ended up ordering off the a la carte menu and had a bean burrito. It was fantastic! The beans were very good and it had the perfect amount of cheese and red sauce on top. Yum! I also tried a drink of the margaritas on the rocks and they were very good and reasonably priced too! Overall it was a good meal and service was fine with the exception of a weird/funny incident with our server. I went to the bathroom after we had paid and was going to meet my friends outside. Our server stopped me from the bathroom and asked where his pens were. I was confused and didn't pay because my BF picked up the tab. He kept on saying "I need those pens, ask your friends if they took them!!" So I went outside and asked... apparently he had also stopped my BF asking him where his pens were. They were all left in the check holders on the table! Ha. Another staff member came outside not long after and told us not to worry, apparently our waiter thought we stole his pens before looking and it was a big deal. That was a first! Great Mexican joint close to Nashville West, just don't take the pens!! read more

What an amazing experience with Tequila's tonight after an absolutely terrible attempt at dinner with the disgusting Taquiera Azteca. I ordered chicken fajitas and everything was so delicious and fresh. The chicken was so tender it "flaked" like tender white fish and was seasoned perfectly. The fajita veggies were perfectly cooked with incredible flavor. The toppings were all fresh, the guacamole was wonderful. Mmmmm!!! The tortilla chips were extremely fresh and crunchy and their salsa was delicious with a heat that sneaks up on you and gradually builds in intensity. I must also mention that the portion was so, so generous with the prices being incredibly reasonable! This is now a restaurant in my permanent rotation, the best Mexican food in Nashville, without a doubt. Please give it a go, I 110% recommend! read more

I love Mexican restaurants I could probably eat Mexican food every single day to be honest and that's also another reason why I'm fat but besides that I like this place and give you free chips and sauce so you can't go wrong with that I'll take that all the time and you know it's your typical Mexican joint I mean you can't really go wrong with it get some tacos free chips Lil burrito action not bad. All the prices are always about the same at every Mexican restaurant to go to don't matter if it's El Nopal or or what they're all basically the same and I like them. I probably spent thousands upon thousands of dollars in a little Mexican joints like this so I highly recommend read more

First visit to Tequilas. I really enjoyed it! ....Passed the chalupa test I prefer to b able to pick my chalupa up and eat it. Some places cover the tostada she'll up so much u can't even find it! Grrrr but not at Tequilas. They are doing chalupas right! :) read more

My second favorite Mexican eating establishment in the west side. The staff servers and bartenders were very considerate an helpful. We heard about this place at another place so decided to stop in and we were so pleased we did. Came on a Saturday lunch. Friend has the burrito, really great red sauce and salsa. Also had the nachos. The red sauce and the considerate servers will keep is coming back. Parking I lot and is easy. Enjoyed this place. read more

The Bellevue location was good for the first few weeks, then quickly went south. They constantly missed items in our delivery / takeout orders. So we thought we'd try this location instead. Not only did they forget our 3 drinks, they also forgot or appetizers. They included chips, but no queso or salsa or anything for the chips. The fajitas were the only complete item we recieved and it was very average. Spent $55, received 1 of 5 items, quality was MEH. Skip this spot. read more

I used to come to Tequilas every week when I first moved to the area. It was always such an amazing experience with friendly service and amazing food that was worth it but... ever since they opened their new location their food and service has drastically gone downhill. At first I thought it was a transitioning period but it would not take this long for everything to get better. Trying to give them another chance (15 chances later it continues to get worse and worse). I used to rave about this place to family and friends and bring them anytime they came to town but now I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Not even for a Cinco De Mayo. They consistently disappoint me and my guests by the portions and the service quality. Go to Taco Bell atleast you'll get your food there. read more

The salsa and cheese dip were really good. My burrito had a little too much cumin on the beef but that's forgivable. My fiance loved his pollo ranchero, it was moist and had a good flavour to it. The decor inside was very nice, loved the art hanging up. Wait staff and host were very kind and made the experience enjoyable. Would definitely go to again. read more
