    Spicy sauce!
    Dhruv S.

    Stopped by here for a couple of tacos on Taco Tuesday! Don Tequila does have an amazing taco special on Tuesday's, it's $1/taco as long as you purchase a drink. I did order me some veggie tacos and I didn't realize they were going to charge me extra, but I guess you can only choose between beef and beans for the $1 special. Nonetheless, amazing tacos, amazing price, great sauces and quick service. I will be back!

    Went to Winston for a doctor's appointment last week, they were running an hour behind, so I took the opportunity to grab some lunch. Couldn't go far, but was craving some Mexican food...a quick Yelp search and I was able to find Don Tequila just 2 miles away. I made my way over, and even at noon was seated right away. When the waiter came to get my drink order, he brought a complimentary basket of chips and salsa to get me started. The lunch menu had a good variety to options to pick from at fairly reasonable prices. The interior is decorated very much like you'd expect a Mexican restaurant to be. I ended up ordering a plate of the lunch chicken nachos, and as expect they came out quickly. The chips were well layered with toppings, tasty queso and a fair amount of chicken. It hit the spot for what I was looking for. Overall it was a good, quick meal, quick waitstaff, decent price. Given the opportunity, I'd return

    Special Lunch #1

    My past review was based on deliveries. I finally got to come to the restaurant. Came for lunch. Place is clean and nicely decorated. 4 stars for the ambiance. Service was very good, 5 stars. The Special Lunch 1 (Chile Relleno and taco) was okay. This dish was a lot more food than I expected. The Chile Relleno is large and full of cheese and ground beef. Nothing spectacular but a solid 3 star dish. I have had better entrees from Don Tequila in the past. The margarita was 3 stars. I got a regular margarita on the rocks. Nothing spectacular. Even though this visit was just okay, I have had better dishes from Don Tequila. I'll be back but I will order something else next time.

    Close up of Birria Tacos - tortillas were overcooked
    Fred B.

    I dropped in this place for an early lunch. It is located in the Pavilion Shopping Center on Hanes Mall Blvd - the same center that housed Bad Daddy's & King'd Crab Shack. It is a nice looking interior, clean & bright. I settled on the Birria Tacos, and they were soon served. This was not an especially good version, across the board. The tortillas were way overcooked, the Birria was under seasoned, as was the consommé. Don't see a return visit here!

    If decor is not the most important thing for you, then this is the best Mexican restaurant in Winston. Delicious food with a generous serving size. It's a strip mall so there's not too much they can do to make the place look nicer, but the service staff are friendly and it's a great meal.

    I went here not expecting much just thinking it was another basic Mexican restaurant. I was wrong. The food here was very tasty and I loved the verde enchiladas and birria nachos. I always judge a Mexican restaurant by their rice and theirs was soft, fluffy, and had a great flavor. I wouldn't recommend their piña colada but maybe their other drinks are better.

    Beef tacos
    Jacqlin E.

    Margaritas was mostly sour mix, the beef and chicken tacos had no flavor and the amount of grease made it hard to eat a hard shell that was soggy on presentation... I had high hopes but we won't be back

    I love Mexican food - it has its own food group in our household. We tried Done Tequila with some friends and it was great. I wish I'd had more veggies in my meal but that's just personal preference. We will be back to try more of their dishes!

    Definitely wasn't the best Mexican food experience. The food wasn't as fresh as I'd imagined it to be. I'm not sure if our food was just sitting for too long before it was served to us or if the server didn't know it was ready, when it was, but the food was not fresh or tasty. It wasn't busy when we went, but the server we had was giving his attention to other tables for an unknown reason. He forgot some things that was ordered and never acknowledged it. I would say that for better customer service, the experience could be a bit more enjoyable with a friendlier and more attentive staff. Our drinks were more sugary than alcoholic and the salsa was average tasting. The ambiance was cute, and has a lot of potential for growths since it was pretty slow day when I had gone, I thought the service would have been better. Overall, I didn't have an enjoyable experience and won't be returning.

    Decided to try this place out for the first time. I was very impressed with the service! My waitress was super nice and attentive. The salsa was excellent and the portion size of my meal was pretty big and for a great price! They also have taco Tuesday so I might be back for this another day :)

    That black speck is the bug. Hard to see because of my camera
    Mak W.

    Went here for the first time today. Heard amazing things about it... and the service was freaky fast and the food looked wonderful. The ambiance was very much like old rustic mexican style. All was going well until I saw a bug in my food doing musical chairs between my lettuce and taquitos Immediately lost my appetite.

    Today's special. The large taco . So delicious

Well, guess who makes sure there's plenty of salsa verde on your plate? Good ol' Pancho Villa, that's who. I have a certain fondness for Pancho's Green Burrito, and when I ordered that dish for lunch today there was a pool of delicious green liquid literally spilling from both sides of my plate! A bit messy for the table, yes, but far better than the scant offerings of their competitor. Pancho has long been one of my most consistent dining experiences in this city, which is why it's often the target of my attention for lunch. They get patrons seated quickly and orders filled quickly. The food is always good and there's plenty of it to enjoy. The service staff does a great job of attending to the wants and needs of their diners.

I had no idea they offer free cheese dip on Mondays, which is a major plus for me. Anywhere there's free queso, I'm there. Say less ...I'll be pulling up on Mondays from now on haha. I love seeing restaurants grow and improve, and you can tell they're putting in the effort. Big shoutout to them for elevating the experience. I'll definitely be back!

The food is good. There's free refills on the horchata which is made in house. Chips and salsa are served the moment you sit down. I ordered the Steak Tapatio which was good but didn't feel like it was made with ribeye which is usually tender and flavorful. The steak in this dish was tough even to cut but still yummy. However, the potholder used to serve the dish was filthy and the knife to cut it was so loose I couldn't use it to cut the tough steak. . My husband ordered the carnitas. It was perfect. There was enough between those to plates to share with small children. The interior is beautifully decorated in bright colors with Mexican motifs. Even the glassware is exquisitely handblown with swirling colors. The servers and staff were friendly and attentive but not obtrusive. We were greeted when we arrived and wished a warm farewell when we left.
