Tequila's Mexican Grill remains my absolute favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. The food is…read moregenuinely authentic, full of bold, traditional flavors from Mexico, and the atmosphere matches perfectly. Most of the staff are native Spanish speakers, which adds to the real-deal experience. I love coming here with my mom for lunch or dinner. Our favorite server is Marín (pronounced mah-REEN). He always recognizes us right away and used to know our regular orders by heart--until we went back to eating KETO! It takes a little creativity, but it's definitely possible to eat healthy here. My go-to is the Chipotle Fajitas without tortillas, rice, or beans. They come out sizzling hot and loaded with flavor. I'll sometimes add a drizzle of their cheese sauce on top, and it's perfection. They recently updated the tabletops and the whole restaurant has a beautiful, authentic Mexican feel. The dining room is massive, making it ideal for large groups. I've seen them easily combine tables for parties of 15-20 people. They usually have upbeat Latin music playing, and on Friday and Saturday nights, there's live music. I'd be thrilled if they ever brought in a mariachi band! Best of all, they're open every day and stay open late. If you're craving great Mexican food, Tequila's is the place to go.

Stopped by Tequila's recently and had a bit of a mixed experience…read more On the positive side, the food was good and the service was excellent--attentive, friendly, and efficient. The team clearly takes pride in the guest experience. That said, we were really looking forward to having a margarita, which made it surprising (and a bit disappointing) that no liquor was being served during our visit. There wasn't any explanation offered, which added to the confusion. It felt a little ironic given the name. Overall, it didn't ruin the experience, but it definitely stood out. We'd be open to going back and giving it another try--hopefully with margaritas on the table next time.

We made a specific side excursion to come here. GPS took us right to the gray building on the…read morecorner. There is a very small sign on the sidewalk but mostly you'll know you are in the right place because of the line out the door. Parking is along either side of the street on the side of the building. We were lucky enough to find a place close to the entrance, but it is possible you may need to walk about a block. I did not notice any specific handicapped parking spaces. The area can be very congested, so be aware as you walk. We arrived about 4:30 and the line was at the door but all inside. Ordering is done at the counter on the left. Once you order, you go find seats. All seating is tables. There is also a nice outside patio with umbrellas for the tables. You can also call in your order and then go directly to the pickup side of the counter so you don't need to wait in the long line. The kitchen is open so you can see everything being made fresh, as well as Mama Mila running everything. Menus are available as you are waiting in line, but you can also check out their menu online. Our waitress taking the orders was very friendly. She walked us through the process when we told her it was our first visit. We ordered the June special spicy Calabria rigatoni as well as the Gemma. We also had to try the cheese focaccia with crack sauce. We were able to find a two-top table available once we placed our order. All the drinks are self-serve. There are also "to go" containers next to drink station. The waitresses working the dining area are constantly cleaning or running food to the tables, but they remained very friendly. The food took about 20 minutes to arrive. A waitress brought it to our table and made sure we had everything we needed. The cheese focaccia is very good on its own, but dipping in the crack sauce took it to another level. It was hard to stop eating that and focus on the entrées. The June special was exceptional. The sausage had a bold flavor and held up well against the heavier cheese-filled rigatoni covered in spicy crack sauce. I was not able to finish my plate but can tell you it reheated very well. The Gemma was a surprise. It was definitely a lighter dish, but the flavors were explosive. The mushrooms stood out in the dish and made it one of the best Italian dishes I have eaten. I had a business trip to Italy several years ago and would put this dish against anything I had there. As we left about two hours after we arrived, the line was out the door and down to the corner. It's true the only reason I came here was because I started following Mama Mila on social media because she posted many of her recipes. We did need to make this a side quest on a longer trip, but I say with certainty the quest was well worth the extra time and distance. One thing to know is the desserts are generally not available on Wednesday, so now I have to plan another long trip arriving there later in the week.
