    Sunday
    Kimmie D.

    Went here yesterday evening to grab dinner, since it was local and minutes away! Greeted with music/band which was nice, but cashier could barely hear my order placed. I ordered 2 Super Burritos w/ lettuce & 3 Tocos w/ cheese. When I got home there was hardly any lettuce or sour cream and they forgot the guacamole on both burritos! Very disappointing! The asada tacos were smothered with LOTS of cheese and hardly any meat! Sadly to pay almost $50 and terribly DISAPPOINTED!! When I checked in on YELP, there was a $3 coupon, not much but a little something to cover some tax. Cashier told me I wasn't able to use it. Huh .. I Highly recommend if u order take out , to check your order before leaving, which I normally do, but hard to do when buying Burritos! Even though this spot is close to home, I probably won't return. I'll take the driveDowntown! (Not sure about there other locations) 2 stars- 1 for location- 1 for Sunday entertainment

    Cooked white shrimp

    They give me raw shrimp twice and they were trying to make pay for the second roll when they said the first one was good when the shrimp was grey I don't know what restaurant gives out raw shrimp twice they have pretty bad cooks especially cause the rolls are just frozen and fried they never make it fresh I come here a lot and they never gave me raw shrimp before

    After some range time, I went to Tequila's Taqueria for some quick lunch. My usual, standard issue trio of Tripas, Al Pastor, and Carne Asada were ordered. This place does get pretty busy during lunch but was able to snuck into a table. Menu was pretty extensive and chips were readily available on the counter. It was just okay. First, their hottest salsa though with proper heat, tasted bland. I enjoyed their verde salsa much better. Carne Asada also tasted a bit bland. The pastor tasted okay; it had good flavor a little different from the usual marinade. And the tripas felt a little short which is a disappointment since this is my favorite meat.

    Came here for lunch after a morning at Los Vaqueros! This is my boyfriend's go-to place and I can see why. It's super packed/busy on a Sunday afternoon but we still managed to get a table inside. The service here is amazing. The waitresses are super kind and are always checking in with you. The food itself is also decent. Their shrimp dishes are delicious! My boyfriend got the spicy tomato shrimp plate and I liked it more than the carne asada/shrimp plate. Also a big plus for the free ships and salsa :)

    Super burrito $16.53 (with tax)
    Alejandra D.

    Been a lunch customer for some years now but never tried their breakfast before! Hubby loves loves loves breakfast burritos and I suggested we try the one here. Base $7.99 + $2.99 meat (optional). We both got chorizo burritos. I like that it comes with a baggy of chips and the salsa is self serve, per usual. Burrito was hot and fresh. I wish it had potatoes though or hash brown coins, I missed that. Other than that, a solid breakfast burrito. Plenty of seating indoors. The Agua frescas were full. While we waited, I observed the staff was cleaning the menus, so that's good to know! I asked one of the workers if they have mariachi and she said yes on Sundays noon-6pm. I love mariachi music as much as hubby loves his breakfast burritos. I hope to check out the mariachi soon and will report back:)

    Super wet burrito
    Sher K.

    You can tell a good spot by the crowd of regulars. Went off of recommendations from others and had the super wet burrito and though it was yummy, it was a bit meat and bean forward. I'll have to try a chicken or veggie super burrito next time. This one was messy!

    Service was excellent. We were a party of ten and they pooled a few tables together immediately so we could all sit together. Our drinks were delicious and strong! Fresh juice was used in the margaritas, which is a plus in my books. I ordered the carne asada enchiladas, which were okay. The meat was dry, but everything else had good flavor. I'd return for drinks and probably try something else on the menu.

    Super quesadilla?
    SA H.

    Phone orders mess everything up unfortunately. We got the wrong food again. This was a super quesadilla that was ordered. Meat tasted good but you need to untie the bag and check everything.

    Double Crispy Taco Combo
    Emily H.

    Amazing! Been here twice now. Today I had the carnitas crunchy taco plate - best carnitas I've had! Meat was tender and had crispy bits. My older son loves the chicken tenders and their orange juice (which tasted like it had some mango in it). My younger son LOVED the horchata and would hardly put it down. My husband tried it and said it was some of the best horchata he's had. Service was friendly and quick. Only downside is it's a bit expensive for a taqueria, but pretty on par for restaurants in Livermore.

    My coworkers arranged a luncheon at Tequila's Taqueria to celebrate my return to work after my five week medical leave. I've heard of this established but never had the opportunity to dine here. It's located close to our work and is a popular lunch spot for people working in east Livermore. I ordered the fish tacos and was pleasantly surprised how good they were. The tacos were not typically served with cabbage but instead served just like a carne asada style street taco. My coworkers had everything from a burrito to enchiladas and everyone seemed happy with their food. There is ample seating both inside and outside in the patio.

    One of the best taquerias in the Bay Area. Everything is always in point and my family lives it here

    Super burrito no guacamole no pico

    Honestly very disappointed. $19.23 after tax super burrito no guacamole no pico. My first bite was literally a mouth full of sour cream and cheese. finally when I got to meat and rice, everything was very bland. Salsa was good thank god I asked for some ..20 is a lot for me. I wish I could be refunded but the store is closed. I'll happy bring back the mostly uneaten burrito and update my review if I can be refunded.

    Quesadilla - unfortunately the paper gets cut too as you dig into this making it a soggy mess !
    Frederick J.

    Came here for lunch - my colleague had the Tequila burrito and I had the Tequeria Quesadilla. No rice and beans were served with either dish . $15 each ! Taste was pretty bland and unfortunately both were smothered in sour cream taking out whatever other good tastes were in there . Served on paper - would not advise as the contents make the paper soggy aswell ! Below average for a Mexican restaurant in my opinion but atmosphere and loud music was this places one saving grace .

As our organizer mentioned, they were fully booked that night so do reserve early. Warm earthy tones in the decor made for a comfortable, inviting atmosphere and the light jazz ensemble and lovely vocal performances elevated the evening's experience. The ambiance is a strong point. Being a paella newbie, I definitely looked forward to tasting a version especially after watching cooking shows over the years. The saffron broth rice nicely counterbalanced the seasoned shrimp, sausage and other ingredients. Thumbs up. I had several portions. The tempura cauliflower - good. KR Enchiladas were cheesey and rich, plumply filled, and the accompanied rice accented with corn. Since we shared the three enchiladas, my small piece was enough for me. Suggest passing on the sourdough side that came with the paella. The bread had melted, but cooled cheese on it and there was not much free broth in the paella to soak therewith anyway. With water being the group's primary beverage, perhaps request a carafe of water at the table to ease the thirstier folks (me). Our wait person gave helpful suggestions and efficient service. The rest of the staff had hustle. As normal with live music, be prepared to raise your voice and repeat yourself in conversations. Parking is ample, with a short walk, in this Nob Hill Foods shopping center.

One - when I walked in I'm not sure if the person that was working there was speaking to her friend or family member but it seems like I interrupted their conversation so it took several minutes for me to make my order(I actually almost left) but I proceeded to place part one of my order which was a dutch crunch burrito with the brisket meat. This was not bad tasting at all when I got back to try everything after shopping nearby. However the carnitas burrito was terrible. I'm not sure what happened. I took two bites and it just wasn't good at all. I was highly disappointed. I appreciated that they give me free chips and salsas but even the salsas weren't that great...not really spicy for "habanero" and the others just seemed watered down as do most Mexican restaurants. So for 32$ I was totally let down and I really dislike spending money on food that I don't like and then I need to spend more money getting food because I'm still hungry. I'm happy that I at least tried the place but now I can see why there was only 2 other diners in the afternoon/early evening. I guess my quest for good Mexican food in this city will continue. I don't think I can recommend or return to this establishment anytime soon.

The 3 guys working weren't too friendly but I wanted to try the fish taco and a shrimp taco to go. $5.75 seemed a little higher than normal for a taco but I figured the serving may be bigger than most places. After 10 minutes, I picked up my to go order on a paper plate with tin foil which made me chuckle. The fish taco was very good- great flavor, tender fish perfectly cooked. I'd rate it a 5/5. The shrimp taco was much smaller which was odd, but the flavor was also very good. The photo reflects a pretty small taco- and it definitely wasn't worth the price. 2/5 for the price. I would go again for fish tacos if I wanted food to go with no frill.

Yea I know its a little late but the place had quite a few people in the dining and bar area for a saturday night. I know for myself if we're eating close to closing, I leave a good tip bc I appreciate their service when its close to closing time. We waited at the front hostess area for 2 to 3 min before anyone came out. 3 employees walked by us and said nothing as they saw us standing there waiting to be seated. Finally we got seated and our waitress came to ask us if we wanted drinks and we ordered at 9:17p. We received our food at exactly 9:30p which I thought was amazing timing and it looked okay. But.... as the waitress gave us our food, she placed my husband's fajita plate down then walked around the table towards me. As she was doing that, she slid the tortila holder across the table and it hit my husbands dinner plate.. she said nothing and I thought that was so rude. She placed my food down and then asked "do you guys want anthing bc the bar is closing and they wont make you anything after they close!" I said "we're fine." Again, we get it you guys are closing but come on. My husband asked her if he could get a refill on some salsa.. she yanked the salsa from the table and went to fill it. Returned with it and slid it across the table a couple inches and walked away. Groups of people started to leave the dining area and head home and before we knew it we were the only ones there. As we were eating, I could see the waitress sitting by the wall with her arms crossed looking at us and around the room. It made us uncomfortable and I could tell she was so irritated.. it was 9:40. The other employees were cleaning the tables and placing chairs on tables around us to clean the floors Before long, we couldn't take it. I was just annoyed so we asked for to-go boxes. She got us our boxes and a bag to carry the boxes. We felt SO rushed and really annoyed. Yea you close at 9:30 but you're still making money at the end of the day. We paid at the end and gave her a low tip. I was prepared to give her wayy more but I couldnt. Her attitude was something else. I feel like the restaurant has gone down and its unfortunate. The food was okay and I don't think we'll be back. It's a shame bc I really liked this location and building. I don't know what her name was but she was around 5 foot 1-2 inches tall, mid 40s, short black hair with a purple tint to it, and she wore a silver butterfly ring on her right ring finger. As we walked out, the feeling we got was that we were holding EVERYONE UP so they couldn't close up. But as we walked to the car, we saw several people still sitting in the bar area.. eating.. drinking.. etc. 11 people to be exact. So what was the rush...
