Have been several times in the past year, the service is always good and the specials are very reasonable in price! Love the decor and the vibe inside there, it's great for large groups or just by yourself! Make sure to come on your birthday!! read more

Don Tequila - Enchilada tres marias - Tex-Mex Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

The food here is always fantastic. I come here with the family and we are never disappointed. The service is great, the music is nice did I mention the food is fantastic? You should definitely give it a try. read more

I'm giving this a 1-star rating only because Yelp doesn't allow anything lower. I was here with a group of 25 and we had a horrible experience. We typically come here twice a year and I know they have an extremely LOUD DJ or live music on Friday and Saturday. When I made in the reservation in April (30 days in advance) I was told "no music on Thursday. Guess what- they now have live music - extremely loud live music on Thursday. To put this in perspective, there were 25 in my group, 3 members of the band's family, 2 people at the bar and 4 other customers. And, the 2 people at the bar left shortly after the band started. So - we accounted for 75% of their clients on this night - 80% if you discount the band member's family. We tried talking to the manager and I explained that I had been told "no music on Thursday" when I made the reservation. We asked if they could "turn down the volume" and he was very dismissive (almost rude). He said "I advertised, I put this on social media, I put signs on the door". To the restaurant's credit - the food was good (somewhere in the 3-4 star range) and the service was decent (3-star). But unless you like "loud, head-banging music that is so loud you can't think - SKIP THIS PLACE ON THURSDAY, FRIDAY and SATURDAY. HORRIBLE RESPONSIVENESS FROM THE MANAGER. Personally, our group will be skipping this place permanently. It will no longer be in our rotation of restaurants. read more

have been coming here since i was a kid and it's always a 10/10 experience! great food and huge menu these days

The barria tacos are so good worth the price I will me back thank you it's has the flavor I been looking for it not bland it

My family and I went here to enjoy cinco de mayo all while knowing it was going to be pretty busy. Upon being seated and ordering our drinks we waited patiently. Our drinks came and though we ordered alcoholic beverages they seem to have been lacking the alcohol. I mean for crying out loud it's cinco de mayo WHERES THE ALCOHOL???? Not only that, our waiter KEVIN.. wasn't helping any with the lack of attention and or reassurance due to the fact it was busy we might have seen him 2x in the 2 1/2 hrs we were there. Now this is where it gets worst ... the food came out and it was just absolutely awful i mean lacking flavor, dry, almost inedible!!! WILL NOT BE BACK AGAIN. read more

Don Tequila -- first time and definitely the last. I will never come back. The music is extremely loud, and on top of that, the sound system is very poor and painful to hear. We couldn't even enjoy our food. It's very disappointing to see that other customers have had the same experience and have left similar reviews, yet the owner doesn't seem to care or address the issue. read more

This was the best Mexican meal I've ever had. I got the birria quesadilla. The broth it's served with is amazing. Now we had to go and remind the hostess we were there as did a table that came in soon after us, but once we got that out of the way great experience! read more

My husband and I visited the restaurant on a Saturday afternoon (around 12:30) and the place was empty. The service was fast and friendly. The music was blasting way too loud, I could barely hear my husband sitting right across the table in an empty restaurant. They have ample parking and the restaurant was big and clean (didn't go to the bathroom though). The chips we got in a beginning were a bit dry. Although I didn't take a picture, he had a burrito and loved it. I ordered the fajita (picture) and I didn't like it too much. It was under seasoned and bland. The biggest surprise was that the soda cost $4.50 each (so $9 just for 2 pops). It was a fountain soda and I think it's a bit too overpriced. read more

Don Tequila - Chicken Chimichangas with Beans, Cheese Dip and nachos. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Let me first say that every experience I have had when I went in the resturant was a good experience. However, I am an amputee and I dont get out much. With that being said I used to order lunch aprx once a wk. Most often my food was never right. So I stopped. Tonight i tried to order my husband and I to go Cheesesteak burito no red sauce as i am alergic to tomoatoes and no lettuce. What did i get a chicken burrito with red sauce and lettuce. I am so very very very sick of these resturants just throwing together. I call they say bring it back. they are not that close to us for one. and for two why couldn't the order be right the first time. this happens way too often. I think this was my last time there. read more

The service was friendly. They were not prompt at all. I ended up getting up to request my check after a while. They had some sort of live music. It was festive for sure however it was very very loud! I ordered the taco loco. It was HUGE! The taste was just . A friend ordered the chimichanga with lobster it was really really good! Perfectly flakey. read more

last time for me..... absolutely no place to park. Had to wait on my order forever. Music was so loud. Everyone was screaming and yelling. No one could hear anything. Food was OK....... by the way, I'm disabled, which made it even worse. read more

Very good food, loved the lights! The sex on the beach was to die for but it was a little on the loud side. So make sure you are into that vibe. Our waitress was very night and quick paced for being busy. I absolutely enjoyed every bit of dinner. Would eat again read more

The food was just ok. Their presentation is everything! LOOKS great but tastes bland. Very friendly service. They have Spanish culture karaoke. It's extremely loud. Good thing we just chose to eat outside. Very good vibes overall. One could definitely feel like they've traveled somewhere on vacation by being there. read more

Don Tequila - Tex-Mex Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I've been coming here regularly since 2010 and the restaurant has changed hands at least twice since my original review. After several disappointing meals in the past 6 months, I have to recommend going elsewhere. My dinner combo #3 certainly looked good, and the taco was delicious, just ground beef and cheese. But the chicken enchilada was cold inside. Worse, the poblano chili was uncooked/crunchy and the cheese wasn't even melted. Usually these are dipped in batter and fried, but the waitress confirmed this is how they serve them now. I think the sauce was probably hot when it was put on both the chili and enchila and then the whole plate was run under a broiler, but both were cold by the time I finished the taco. Historically, the fajitas and burritos here are very good and their margaritas are still excellent. Maybe stick with those. read more

Extremely disappointed. On the positive we had a nice waitress. Her service was fantastic. The prices in this Cleveland Street establishment were off the chart. Ive eaten better and less expensive Mexican food in airports and downtown big cities. Even the beer special - 24 oz for $3.99 is not a special in Columbus during Happy Hour. The food was okay but nothing you can't get anywhere else. Plus I've never had Chori Pollo with fajita chicken strips. Charging $5 more a plate and $10-12 shots for average Tequila is just not for me. read more

What a great little restaurant!!! Food is super fresh and delicious. The inside is LARGE, and they have live music Sunday's !!! We will be here.!!! read more

For today's excursion, I had a taco salad with shrimp ceviche. And what did I do to mix things up? Dump the ceviche into the taco salad. Took care of the spice :). Tasted good too. read more

13 dollars for freaking melted cheese and 15 dollars for a steak quesadilla it's a total rip off. margaritas are expensive but good but everything else is a rip off. I left my phone and went back and waitress commented about me not leaving tip. But alone my bill was 57 dollar. They got enough money out of me and hope peop doesn't fall for their bullshit. I'll call radio stations and news outlets to let people know so they don't waste their money read more

They changed. Was El Rancho Alegra, now Don Tequila. I was a regular for lunch, but no longer. Menu changed, management changed, quality changed. Not sure why Yelp even shows my old review when this is not the same restaurant, just the same building. Adiós read more

So, the food isn't bad. The service was decent. But don't go on a Saturday night... that's bad Mexican karaoke night. Karaoke is iffy at best, but bad karaoke, super loud in a foreign language.... I'll pass. read more

This little gem is within 2 miles of our house and we just found it! I loved Mexican Food and this place delivers. My wife and I love their queso with groud beef appetizer. Each trip there I have tried a different entree and have not been disappointed. Have not had a chance to try the dessert menu due to filling up on the entree. The business is clean and the service is friendly and attentive. On Sundays they have a live band playing around 4 PM. My next return I will be trying a combo entree! read more

Had the Pollo De la creme. The chicken.was way over cooked as well as the steamed vegetables. I asked for a side of Roasted whole jalapeños. the waitress said they were already cut and thrown on top of the dish.. They were not...I asked for a side of Pico de gallo and it was old. My boss ordered the Fajita texana and the dish that came out did not have the chicken or shrimp. he brought it to the the waitress attention and she said oh yeah i ordered the Fajita ranchero... She did offer to replace the meal. which was kind of her. This is probably my 3rd time here and today by far was the bit the best experience... read more

In town visiting and had a taste for Mexican food. Everyone we spoke to were very nice and attentive. We were sitting on the patio and could still here the karaoke that was inside which was nice. We had chips and salsa. One of our dishes came with guacamole it was AWESOME! Our food was hot and delicious I could not think of a complaint everything was great. We will be coming back when in town in the future. Go try!! read more

Extremely Extremely LOUD!!!! Totally intolerable! Worst atmosphere ever! DJ is awful!

I've passed this restaurant several times and never noticed. The food is fresh and terrific. The customer service is great too. The staff is friendly and professional. read more

I'm gonna to be 100% honest here. Decent customer service, orders arrived to our tables fast. BUT within half an hour of consuming our food and drinks, every person in the party felt sick. the only common denominator was the margaritas. And I'm talking very sick, we frew up. We were all physically ill and I can't say we will be returning. read more

I've always enjoyed the food here. Used to love to have the lunch specials . Service is consistently great, but today was really something special !! This was my 2nd time out with no wheelchair; walker only, in 8 months, and the staff could not have been more accommodating and attentive to my needs. When we left, the hostess was already holding the inside door, and the server was holding the outside door. It's touches like this that makes the difference when you're making a choice of the many Mexican restaurants in the area. Excellent food, clean public areas and behind the scenes, and such wonderful service. read more

Waitress could not speak English so some food orders were wrong. Outdoor patio area was swarming with bees so dining was unenjoyable. Music was so loud we couldn't hear ourselves speak. Overpriced menu and portions small compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area. Altogether not a good experience! read more

Stopped by for dinner with boyfriend & his son. Our second time since becoming Don Tequila. The boys ordered queso cheese dip and we were eating salsa and chips. The chips tasted old and had a weird flavor. BF orders burrito and 2 enchiladas and I ordered 2 shrimp enchiladas with queso cheese dip over them and side of Mexican rice and refried beans. After waiting for over 15 mins, they bring out our orders. Mine had on the plate 3 enchiladas with verde sauce, Mexican rice and lots of lettuce, small spoon of pico and small spoon of sour cream. Not at all what I ordered. So he returns to the kitchen and after boys are finished eating, my food is finally brought out. It is correct this time on scorching hot plates, but food is just warm. Rice tasted like chicken flavored Rice A Roni and cheese on enchiladas was congealed. What they used when they rolled the enchiladas in did not taste good and was very disappointed with the whole thing. Also should have realized being there at 530pm with only a few tables with patrons and still very few when we left should tell you something. It was so much better when it was El Ranchero Alegre. We won't be coming back. read more
