Always the same old bad Mexican food. At least this time I did not get the nearly 2 foot piece of hair in my Fajita Burrito. Why many people I know, including my wife like to go to this place is beyond me. read more

Sometimes you need a little spice in your life. Don Tequilla delivers. The neon sign beckons you inside and once there, sit back and enjoy. The roomy booths offer space for cozy dinner or enough room for your whole brood or gang of friends. Nibble some fresh chips and salsa while you ponder your meal options. The salsa is fresh with tomatoes, cilantro and spice. In case that isn't enough heat for you ask for the special sauce from the kitchen for extra kick and spice. I ordered the chili rellenos hoping not to be disappointed - this gal spent some time in Arizona and loves her Mexican food. These didn't disappoint. Yum. Served with rice and beans with a drizzle of red sauce. Good enough to want to return and sample through the menu -- several other items caught my eye - fish tacos, nightly specials, burritos with tomatillo sauce!!! The staff is friendly and patiently gives you time to check-out the menu and answer any questions. nom.nom. read more

Ate here for lunch on a Sunday. Arrived around 12:30, and there were a decent number of customers seated. Service was friendly and fast, food was excellent, and they have DRAFT BEER, including a couple of Mexican brews. This location is the best Don Tequila I have been to. read more

Terrific service. The place was packed, but we were seated right away. Chips and salsa on the table as we were seated. Great food, big portions, fast service. read more

See all

On a recent trip to Kirtland, OH. Decided to try even though the outside appearance was somewhat questionable. But nice simple decor inside. Friendly waitress who gave good tips from the menu. We both had the Tres Amigos. Nice chicken, steak, shrimp combo. read more

Don Tequila - Guadalajara special tamale - Mexican Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

So, I thought the food was average. But what makes this place is the cool interior and super attentive and friendly bartenders and servers. We felt like we were part of la familia. I haven't felt that way in a Mexican restaurant, probably ever. Fajitas did not arrive sizzling. Bummer. My bean burrito and cheese enchilada were standard fare. Nothing to shout about. The beer was extra cold so bueno for that. Very clean restaurant. read more

My boyfriend and I order here all the time. I order the same thing evertime. Somehow I ended up with 2 chicken quesdillas and not steak. Asked for steak specifically. Bit pissed they messed up and I wasted time and money. read more

We usually go to the one off lakeshore blvd, always have excellent service love the atmosphere so we tried the mentor avenue thinking it would be the same NOT service was horrible!! Will never go back . read more

Very bland. Salsa is like tomato sauce. Enchilada sauce taste like canned marinara.. just awful.

Nope. Don't go. It's gross microwave burnt food that I couldn't even cut though presented in a very disgusting way. If you have the option go anywhere else. read more

We had a really good meal here, service was quick and accurate. Food was definitely better than most Mexican places around. Margaritas were very good. Most of all, the place was very clean! Would definitely go again! read more

Inconsistent service, average food.....I've had better at Chipotle..... Won't be back. read more

We have just moved from Austin,TX to NE Ohio and are searching for our new favorite Mexican restaurant. We were greeted promptly and brought to our table. The chips were fresh and warm. The salsa was a little blander than we care for. Service seemed slow, but in all fairness it was Saturday evening. I ordered the Lobster Enchiladas which had pieces of lobster sautéed with onion and tomato wrapped in a fresh corn tortilla. It was average. My husband had the Burrito Especial with a chicken burrito and a beef tip burrito. Hubby said it was above average. The rice had a nice flavor with an aftertaste of tomato and cilantro. We were disappointed with the lack of complex flavor profiles that we have become accustomed to while living in the Southwest. Overall, we rated it as adequate to good. read more

Food was AWESOME. The normal tacos are ... well ... normal and typical. My wife ordered the chicken fajitas and they were very good fajitas. I ordered the burrito durango which was a 12 inch shell STUFFED with chicken, steak, and huge shrimp! I asked for it spicy... and it actually came with pretty good heat. The burrito was outstanding, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 3. Overall, we'll probably be back. read more

We've eaten here 2-3 times a month for the last few years. It's my absolute favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. I've never had a meal I didn't like! The menu is so huge and full of options, even your pickiest eaters should be able to find something they can enjoy. I love how quickly the meals come out, which is especially nice when you're on your lunch hour. The portions are always great, and the staff treats us like family each time we stop in! read more

Delicious! The food is great and the margaritas are fantastic! The staff is nice and the dining area was super clean. Didn't take long for our food to come out! Fast delicious lunch and or dinner. read more

The service was ok, the salsa flavorful, and the food pretty good. They only serve pre mixed margaritas, which is no bueno. I ordered the burrito fajita and it was great, but the kids nachos were bland and rubbery. read more

Yum!!! I love this place! Come almost every Friday. Try the Chicken Chili Verde, my first favorite dish. My new favorite, Burrito Chipotle!!!! So delicious! Don't forget the margaritas!! :) read more

I've been here at least 5 times now and each time is better than the last. I Iove what they have done to improve the building and add outdoor dining. Service is always good here and on par with other top places in Mentor. I really suggest the chicken soup on a cold day it's very yummy! Everything I've had on the menu has been great. read more

Enjoyed the bright fun Mexican decor! The food was delicious and reasonably priced! And the margaritas were delicious!

Kind of disappointed with the previous reviews in the area of customer service because honestly there was none. We were the only patrons in the restaurant and the waiter seemed inconvenienced by us being there. After he took our order he went and sat down in another booth and started playing on a computer. We did not get our food quickly like everyone else has said, as we were the only people here it shouldn't take as long as it takes for me to finish my beverage. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that the waiter was farting around instead of doing his job? They got three stars because despite the service the food was AMAZING and quite inexpensive. If you order a quesadilla you may want to order a la carte items as well because the quesadilla was the size of a large Taco which is odd. read more

We've been going here several times a month ever since they opened. Some of the BEST Mexican food I've ever had at absolutely the LOWEST prices I have ever found for food this good. Waiters friendly and attentive. Nice decor. Nice new Bar. read more

What a surprise! The most amazing Mexican food I have ever tasted and I am a foodie. My husband and I ordered the table side guac. Delicious! Texas margaritas. Delicious! Seafood burritos with fresh cilantro! I will be salivating for them soon! All of the food was so fresh! You must try this place. We will try the Green Road location next as it is closer to our home. read more

Been here a couple times and so far every time we've gone the foods been great, the service has always been friendly and the portions are amazing! read more

Amazing Mexican place!! Very tasty and reasonably priced. We ordered Molacajete, seafood chimi and carne asada burrito. The best!! Molacajete is a must try! This is something new I have never tried before. Service is quick! Cute authentic decor. read more

I eat here all the time and most of the staff are from Guadalajara.... Food is definately "americanized" and by that i mean tamed down in heat and changed a little for what americans expect.... But when i order my racos de carne asada with lime and cilantro and onions.... All i get are big smiles and HOT sauce.... So if your in the mood for authentic hotmexican food.... Just let the waiter know.. Hell guide you to a great choice! read more

Tacos al pastor--delish! Salsa and guacamole was very fresh! Refried beans were super good. Service was friendly and fast. Beer was cold and the bathroom was clean. What more can you ask for? read more

Amazingly good Mexican food but they rip you off EVERY time. They scratch your order on a piece of paper with no descriptions and prices never add up. Its ALWAYS more. We have checked this several tines and wrote down everything we ordered and the prices on the menu and its been 20-30% higher consistently every time. Its too bad they scam their customers like this because the food really is awesome. Write down everything you order and be prepared to question your bill. read more

Food is always great especially Tableside Gauc but today service was really slow because of kitchen. Waiter couldn't have been nicer

Great food each time I've gone. However, we had horrible service tonight. Seemed to be a newer waiter. Hopefully this was a one time thing. Floor was very slippery and unswept too. I'll be back again. Hopefully next time will be better read more

Good food, great prices, large portions, fast, friendly service. What more can you ask for. We highly recommend you try it!

Love it! Favorite Mexican restaurant of all time! I would def. suggest this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine

Maybe let's work on the chili rolenos. Do nice large poblemo peppers like el rancho and you got me as a frequent customer. A+ on the guacamole! Large portion. Nice! read more

My favorite place to eat! I've never had anything on the menu that I didn't like. Right now, I'm hooked on the chicken fajita burrito and the chicken gordita. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good place to eat! read more

I have been to Don Tequila of Mentor numerous times and I seem to be overcharged each time. I ordered two quesadillas when dining there recently. Per the menu in their restaurant and online, my order should have come to $7.98. I ordered a water with my meal and confirmed this with the cashier. I was charged $10.15 rather than $7.98. The server gives you one receipt with all of your orders hand written. You are required to tell the cashier what you ordered and they give you a grand total of what you owe. There is no breakdown of charges to review before paying like at a normal restaurant. I would pay close attention to what you order if you dine here. I've complained before only to argue with the cashier about the correct amount owed. I still was told to pay the amount they gave me. read more

We go here with friends at least once a month, usually like food and prices; today got a bad waiter; I got the wrong lunch and the four $6.50 lunches were billed at $8.99each, then he took my friends plate before he was done; still like the place, hope for a better honest waiter, from other comments, you need to watch bill. read more

They had good free chips and salsa but the actual meals were bad. The taco salad was literally bean soup in a shell and the nachos were tortilla chips with an inch of melted cheese. It took almost 40 minutes to get our bill when we were done and their "cheese dip" was basically a bowl of milk for $4. But the wait staff was nice. read more

This is our go to Mexican restaurant. The staff is kind and courteous and Javier is an amazing gentleman. Always prompt , fresh and delicious. Their mango margaritas and dos Equis pair perfectly with our meals. Very family friendly and great atmosphere. Really a great place read more
