The food was amazing
Paula A.

Best Mexican restaurant place around, never had better. I love the atmosphere here and the customer service is on point

Brian M.

Probably my new go to Mexican restaurant! Not only is the staff friendly and the food delicious, but it's at a reasonable price! Win-win-win. There is plenty of seating so don't be intimidated if you see that the parking lot seems full. They have televisions throughout the restaurant to show the game if you want to watch or just enjoy the party you came with in a booth.

Ranchero Burrito
Christian M.

The food was great and the service was great too. I'm not from the area and this was a nice treat. Me and my girlfriend came for a nice dinner and it didn't disappoint the prices were great and the menu had everything you needed. Highly recommend and will be coming back!

Overall the food was very tasty. Chips and salsa were on point. I had the "Chile Colorado" and it was very filling. The service was very prompt and every body's meal was served nice and hot. Despite it being lunch, the servings were plentiful. The ambiance and decor was welcoming and the soft Spanish background music was almost like being on a short vacation.

The best fajitas on earth!

The cleanest and most amazing restaurant in the state in my opinion! The food is incredible, I mean like talk about it for days incredible! The price is amazing too! Like they completely out do themselves! the best Mexican food in Kentucky hands down. Worth the drive! Homemade guacamole, incredible fajitas, the street tacos are SO good. We have never had a single complaint about this place!

The staff was great as weak; I changed an order kind of midstream and they adjusted to it. Small sitting inside so we put tables together outside to sit together. All the while we ate; people trickled in 1 x 1. By the way the hot sauce is hot. Everyone's food was great tasting. Nice little place, seems locals like it!

This place offers a wide variety of Tacos and Burritos. everything from traditional meat, pico de…read moregall and guacamole to even a Surf and Turf version. This most unique burrito offering is the Hot Cheeto Burrito. Which is made with a burrito stuffed with French fries, your choice of meat, Hot Cheetos, yellow melted cheese, guacamole, sour creat and topped with shredded cheese. I also tried the Torta, (which is a Mexican version of a sub sandwich) on a sub style bun filled with your meat choice, beans, shredded cheese, lettuce, sliced tomatoes, onion & avocado served with a side of french fries. You will be happy with the people and all the variety's they offer here, this is one of the easiest reviews I have ever had. We were ecstatic to be here. Plenty of space to eat in comfort. The monster burritos are addictive as well, come hungry you will leave full and you will not regret it. The staff is friendly g and very welcoming.

Tequila House unfortunately for me didn't really hit the mark, but definitely has some redeeming qualities. We came here with my husband's family, so we were a rather large group. The table we were sat at was a little tight, but that wasn't a problem, we were happy to be seated together. We started with the choriqueso dip. This was probably the highlight of the meal, but the portion was so small, there were some people at the table that didn't even get to try it. We all got assorted entrees and none of them were anything to write home about. The atmosphere here is was really sets it apart from other places in Etown. It's very in-your-face stroby, loud, and heavily-decorated. To me, it feels a bit contrived, but it definitely is different from other places in town, and could make for a fun night out for those looking for that. There was live music too, which was really loud, but again if that's what you're looking for then this is the place. Overall, this was not my favorite, but I'd be willing to come back if I'm craving a sort of night out.
