    A new restaurant right here in Denton. Finally a real Mexican restaurant! While the inside is small, it can seat maybe 30-36 patrons if every table is full. The decor is minimalistic but nice. We were seated quickly and our drink order taken quickly. They just opened and are awaiting alcoholic beverages but offered Coca-Cola products, lemonade and sweet tea. The menu is not large but reasonable variety of choices. I tried the Diablo burrito as I like a little heat. Food came out fairly quickly even having just opened. It was well filled and the grilled chicken inside was very nice. The heat was good too, although I'd have liked a little more pico inside. It came with a nice little side salad as well. It was a very filling meal for lunch! All in all it was a very good experience and I'll definitely be back to try the tacos.

    Side salad without cheese.

    Food is average at best. Do NOT get the carne asada, it was extremely tough. Service was good, prices are average.

    I haven't been to Tenchi is a few years, but decided to give it a try again. We were quickly…read moregreeted and able to be seated right away. The place was clean and inviting. They have a new menu since I last came here, and it's different from the one previously posted, so I added some pics of the menu. In addition to the menu items, there's a chalkboard near the register, which had some sushi rolls listed. We received some complimentary chips and salsa. Salsa was good, but chips were fair, I guess. We were a group of three, so we ordered a grande burrito, a cali chicken sandwich, and I ordered one of each of the three sushi rolls listed. Food came out fairly quickly. The burrito was huge and nicely filled - you could probably get two meals out of it. The cali chicken sandwich came with some beautiful avocado slices, and lots of chicken and of course it had cheese. The sushi rolls were beautiful. They came with soy sauce, another sauce, and freshly grated wasabi (not the paste kind you get sometimes) and nice slices of fresh ginger. The california roll was a bit bland, but the two tuna rolls were pretty good. Word or two of warning (good warning) - the fresh wasabi is potent; and the rolls had about 10 pieces each (not the 6 or 8 pieces you usually get at many places) so maybe order just one at a time to see how much you can handle. All in all it was a very positive experience, and the service was very good. I think I'll have to keep Tenchi in mind for some more visits.

    Delicious food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Our favorite stop while biking in Caroline County!read more

The tables are old school actual wood furniture and booths we sat on are dope, the backing are leather tufted and a pretty blue color( see pic). I ordered the Guadalajara Burrito chicken( I excluded chorizo [sausage]), comes covered in a cheesy cream sauce with an amazing flavor. The burrito is topped with a flavorful pico de gallo( onions, parsley, tomato other ingredients and peppers). My company ordered other dishes, all were very delicious I did try a spoon of each. We also got 2 desserts I had "El volcano " a brownie with ice cream, it was perfect. Nice light crunch outside, smooth inside not gooey. We also got Don Juan , fried ice cream( not impressed with the cornflakes housing the ice cream)and churros served in a tortilla bowl. I didn't expect much coming here but I left a believer that when I'm in town I will definitely be back with family. If you have a choice get the server Marvin, he was super attentive checking on us every couple of minutes.

    This place has all the makings of a good place. Good location decent service. Burrito was tasty…read morealbeit not wrapped at all. It completely fell apart with each cut of my fork. Now the bad... salsa is not good and comes in a plastic Jell-O shot cup (?!). Not to mention they charge a couple extra bucks for a 2nd Dixie cup of bad salsa. The $12 house margarita was the nothing more then lemon/lime water with the only school being the remnants of cleaning solution they last used on the pre made dispenser. The guacamole was decent but lacked flavor and again for some reason I'm charged $2 more to get some chips to eat my guacamole. 2.5 stars really and there's better options in the area

Then add some sugar on the rim the drink is smooth but the jalapeño makes sure you don't get too attached to it's toxic love
