    Top to Bottom: Chicken, Pork, Shrimp Street Taco
    C G.

    Located in between the gas station and laundry mat. Inside is nothing fancy but clean. The customer service is great! Decent price point. As for the food...the shrimp taco was the best! Pork and chicken taco just OK! There was plenty of meat in all 3 tacos. Give them a try for yourself as everyone's tastebuds are different.

    Tlayuda, carne asada and all the fixings

    As soon as they handed me my tlayuda in a pizza box, I knew this was a good decision. It's carne asada instead of tasajo, but it was massive and open face. I will be ordering this again and bringing backup next time.

    Very clean

    Good food in good service. It's a great place to pick up a quick dinner and it's pretty authentic. Love the location close to the house.

    If you enjoy mexican that approaches authentic, this is a very good place to go. Their menu is not…read morea typical tex-mex style menu. Tacos and burritos are a la carte. But the food is delicious. Last week I got one asada, one al pastor, and one chirozo taco, traditional style. They piled on the meats, and with the complimentary chips & salsa that was all I needed.

    I was discriminated here...see below!…read more On Sunday, September 28, 2025, around the lunch hour, my wife and I visited this establishment. We placed a meal order totaling over $60.00 and intended to spend an additional amount on dessert. We did not request that our order be prepared "to-go"; our expectation was to dine on the premises. At the time, we were the only African-American customers in the establishment. Timeline of Events: 1. We completed our order and sat down at a table. I then proceeded to the salsa bar to prepare for our meal. 2. After approximately 20 to 30 minutes, we noticed that several customers who had ordered after us, who were white and Hispanic, had received their food. Our order had not yet been called. 3. Throughout this wait, a to-go order sat visibly on the counter near the cashier. We did not associate this order with ourselves, as we had ordered to dine in. Notably, all other customers who received their food had their order numbers called out by the staff for pickup. Our number was never called. 4. After the kitchen staff began to clean up, the cashier approached our table and inquired what we were waiting for. 5. My wife presented our receipt. The cashier then retrieved the previously mentioned to-go order from the counter, which had been sitting for at least 20 minutes, and confirmed it was ours. The Cashier's Explanation and Our Conclusion: When I asked the cashier why our order was packed to-go when we never requested it, she stated that she "just pressed the to-go button." Given the discrepancy in service--with white and Hispanic customers receiving timely, dine-in service with their numbers being called, while our order was deliberately packaged for takeout and left to sit without notification--this explanation is highly insufficient. The cashier's subsequent, delayed offer of plates for the now-cold food was dismissive. This entire experience led us to the unavoidable conclusion that the service we received was fundamentally different and discriminatory. The staff appeared to assume we were leaving, effectively prioritizing the comfort and service of all other patrons over ours. We informed the cashier that the experience was unwelcoming, and we requested a full refund, which was provided. We left the establishment without eating. This incident is a clear example of subtle racism in a public accommodation, resulting in disrespectful service and a negative dining experience.

    Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish! Everything we tried was packed with flavor,…read moreand you can tell there's real care put into the food and drinks here. Our server, Brandon was top notch!! The smoky salsa was an unexpected standout--so flavorful that we kept going back for more. The tequila flight was also a ton of fun and a great way to try something different. Whether you're a tequila fan or just looking for something entertaining to share, it's definitely worth ordering. And the Texas Trio fajitas were incredible! They came out sizzling, flavorful, and loaded with everything you want in a great fajita meal. The combination of flavors was fantastic, and the portions were generous enough to make it a seriously satisfying meal. This is the kind of place where the food, drinks, and atmosphere all come together to make you want to come back and try more of the menu. If you're looking for a great spot for Mexican food, margaritas or tequila, and a fun night out, Tacos & Tequila is absolutely worth checking out. Five BIG stars! We'll definitely be back!

I was disappointed to learn they were out of tea in the middle of the day, so I ordered a mocktail instead. The atmosphere was wonderful, and the food was excellent. Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the restaurant. Brandon only came to our table about three or four times during our entire visit. He never brought us plates for our appetizers, water, or eating utensils. Our food was delivered by another staff member, which is understandable, but we still had no forks or spoons when it arrived. My sister eventually had to get up and ask for utensils, and she also had to go to the service window to request water because no one brought it to our table. As our server, Brandon was simply not attentive and didn't seem engaged with us as customers. I love Tacos & Tequilas and visit the Poncey location two or three times a month, so I know the level of service the restaurant is capable of providing. This visit was a major disappointment based solely on the customer service. Despite the lack of attentiveness, we still left Brandon a generous tip. I truly hope this was just an off day because the food and atmosphere were fantastic. I would definitely return, but I hope the service is much better next time.
