The first time I ate there, about a year ago, it was a great experience. I had the steak taco. All…read moresubsequent visits were very disappointing for numerous reasons - very poor service, price I was charged was much more than the menu indicated (despite no extra toppings), the mature lady hostess was rude, irritated, and reluctant to even take my order. I felt very unwelcome. The music was so loud, I could barely stay to wait for my food. The place was "unkept", and the quality of the food presented was horrible. I took a few bites, then tossed it and left. It's too bad because I try to frequent small businesses in the area, especially minority-owned and operated, but I would never endeavor to visit this particular restaurant again, unfortunately.

It looks very small from the outside as it's part of a small strip. But the seating is quite spacious and the menu is huge! It's a whole book of so many items: tacos, Taco dinners, fajitas dinners, tortas, tostadas, burritos and so much more. Upon seating, they give you complimentary salsa and chips. The salsa for the chips is very basic 2/5 stars. I ordered the following tacos: Asada Taco with cilantro and onion Shrimp Taco Cecina Taco with cilantro and onion All three tacos were absolutely delicious and unique. The shrimps were a good decent size.. somep places they are super tiny! But these were pretty good! Would definitely come back again!

My husband and I work from home. Good Tequilas is located maybe 7 minutes from our home so we go…read morequite often on n our lunch break. The host/server there, a male, is quite nice. The place is very quiet, just some soft Mexican instrumental music playing in the aground. Good Tequilas is quite large, although we rarely see anybody there right when they open (Monday and Tuesday they open at 3).. At least for women (so I imagine for men as well) and they offer Disabled parking and have a ramp at the entrance. The food, well, if you eat meat it's great. If you are a vegan, not so much. First of all they were deceptive and dishonest for many years. Most vegetarians would not think to ask like me Hindu (vegan), but the rice and beans were prepared with chicken paste. I mean, they could have been sued if I made a big deal out of.it. So anyway, the host/server today told me that they no longer use chicken paste in their rice and beans, they are pure vegan.. So I ordered a rice, beans and guacamole. The guacamole there is quite good. I tried a bite of the rice and beans, discreetly spit it out in my napkins. I tried a bit of rice and discreetly spit it out in my napkin. I just ate my same order as always fot many years, chips are salsa are complimentary. I hate salsa. It is not just Good Tequilas salsa, I just refuse to put salsa in my mouth. Chips and guacamole thums up. So today, with the inedible rice and beans, my check came out to $14. That's on me, as I ordered the plate of now vegan rice and beans. My American husband loves the place, and so do I if I stick to free chips and guacamole.

I do actually enjoy that they have a bar top eating area with a big screen tv that always has great movies (pg parents). There's usually a recent marvel movie or - today - Smurfs because the family was young. If you're just trying to enjoy something for lunch and not stare blankly at a dining room, feel like your home and enjoy a movie. Last time I was there with friends we were watching the latest marvel movie, enjoying nachos, and planning for the weekend. Other times I'd just put in 12 hours and I didn't want dishes or hassle.

While I haven't tried everything there from what I have tried I can guarantee most if not all the menu is going to be a good choice. We had Chilaquiles with red sauce, the burrito lunch combo with fries and they gave us some chips and salsa to start. Literally everything was amazing. The burrito was probably twice as big as I was expecting it to be for the price and it was fantastic. The fries were great too. The food also did not take long, which helped if you need to get back to work after a quick lunch break. Drinks wise they have some cans of Coke products and Jarritos, and some bottles of water.

We went full tapas mode and shared everything across the table, which is absolutely the right way to do this. The trio of salsas was a strong opener. The smoky Al Morita was the clear winner for me, though all three brought something distinct to the table. The Patatas Bravas were well seasoned and the sunny side egg on top added a richness that elevated the whole dish. Wanted a little more crisp on the potatoes but honestly a minor note on an otherwise solid plate. Tacos were a mixed bag. The Al Carnitas fell flat, the pork belly felt underseasoned and the lime overpowered everything else. The Al Fundido though was a genuine standout. Perfectly cooked butterfly shrimp, pickled onions, melty cheese. Every component earning its place on the tortilla. The Al Chulo got solid marks from the table but could use something bright to cut through the richness. The Chicken Empanadas were a highlight of the night. Shatteringly crispy, loaded with flavor, and the slaw alongside them was exactly the right call. The Al Mango Salad was fresh and balanced but leaned sweet and desperately wanted a crunchy element and maybe a little heat to round it out. Dessert delivered a split decision. The Al Platanito Frito was the surprise of the evening. Sweet, sour, bright, crunchy. A perfect final bite. The churros were perfectly fine and nothing more. Service was attentive and our server steered us well with recommendations. One heads up: this is not a casual weeknight cheap eat. It is tapas priced for the experience, so come hungry, come with a group, and come ready to spend. Worth it. The Plainfield location is next on our list and we cannot wait.
