Good food, cheap and fast! Chor pollo is awesome and so is chori queso. Good cold beer as well. Can't beat it. read more

Senor Tequila - Chori-pollo. The bomb. - Mexican Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

See all

Found this authentic Mexican restaurant via Yelp! I am on a business trip. I was craving some authentic Mexican food and WOW did I ever find a jackpot! Extremely good food with a nice atmosphere to go along with it! If I was a local this would definitely be my spot for Mexican food! Wish I had this down the street from me in Raleigh, NC! The staff was very nice as usual with the Mexican culture! The service was great and the food was out in less than 10 mins! Beer was even great too! Would love to come back here again! read more

Genuinely the worst dining experience I have ever had. My party of three were all given incorrect cheques, some of which had prices that were double what was listed on the menu. On top of that, the cheques were not distributed properly and the waitstaff was very rude in terms of fixing this. The entire process of fixing this took nearly an hour (and many mean looks from the staff). read more

Absolutely terrible. They messed up the checks and upcharged my table and it took over 30 minutes to fix. Terrible food too.

Great food at reasonable prices. Plenty of indoor seating. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend. Food comes out fast.

Señor Tequila has been our go-to Mexican spot since living in the Charleston area. This is a no frills standard Mexican joint. This is not a Mex 1 or Minero that serves craft tacos or uber-authentic food. This is standard Tex-Mex fare that is on the cheaper side. This is a great spot if you want a cheap night out. The food isn't spectacular but it's not too shabby. Keep an eye out for coupons in the mail. They come on the regular and I think it's part of what keeps us coming back. If you'll knock $5 off an already cheap meal, I'm happy! read more

If your dinner plans include authentic Mexican cuisine and drinks, Señor Tequila is not the place for you. That being said, I would recommend Señor tequila for your Americanized Mexican and margarita happy hour cravings. From 4pm-6pm, large any flavor margaritas are only $9 and pitchers are only $14. Try the peach or mango for sure! 34oz beers are also an incredible happy hour price. I enjoy the atmosphere of the one in Mount Pleasant more so than the one in West Ashley, most because the store is larger, cleaner, and overall more comfortable, but both are nice. I recommend the fajita quesadilla which usually turns in to two meals for me because of how much food they give you. Chips and salsa are typically replenished quickly and service is alright, depending on how busy they are. read more

Senor Tequila - Happy hour large margaritas, any flavor for $9. These are peach and mango - Mexican Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

Pretty good for this type of Mexican restaurant. Extensive menu, good prices and friendly staff. They make a mean and strong margarita. Their chorizo cheese dip app is a must. I normally stick to beef soft tacos and they load them up with meat and cheese. Parking is easy and the store is clean. read more

Favorite Mexican restaurant in West Ashley. Food is always on point. Service could be better unless you get Raymond. We always ask for him whenever we visit. If he is not your server you are in trouble. Everyone else is slow and doesn't give refills on time. read more

Margaritas are not so great. Food was ok. But not worth $60 between me and my boyfriend..

Owner doesn't care about anything but getting your Cash....Watched the Margarita Pitcher being made today...Wow....Let's really F the customer here...19 bucks for Ice and mostly nothing else...But he will change your tip on Our credit or debit card...Blatant stealing today when I looked at my bank statement...And I checked out with the owner...No waiter involved..Total BS... Ha...We are serving Mexican in SC...It all sucks... read more

Senor Tequila's is my favorite! Most of the staff is so nice and the food is great every time. This is my go to spot for Mexican food, no question!! read more

Pros: Good food, no fuss atmosphere, good salsa, attentive waitress, good sweet tea, decent prices. Cons: Food is very oily and greasy. The quesadilla is pouring oil everytime I break a corner off. The chips are even oily. The staff is all very kind and the food is good. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Prices are great, food is excellent, and service was very good. Love this place. Red sauce is so good. Salsa is amazing. Queso was amazing. And one of the best enchiladas I've ever had (and I eat Mexican like once a week.) read more

We just ate lunch and my friend had a chicken bone in her quesadilla...and did nothing. She could have choked and died. Not going there again. read more

Consistent every time. Exactly what you'd expect. Very nice staff. Good food and drinks!

Very welcoming environment! Great service, better aesthetic. Napkin holder sub-par. Food bomb asf. Ranch is not homemade. Salsa is hotter than normal, chips have normal integrity. Food is priced well. Would go again for a evening drinking, seemed like good deals between 4-8pm. read more

Avoid this place. Service was horrible. Food was like frozen mexican from grocery. This is the only review I have ever done. I just don't want anyone to have to experience this place! read more

Went here on a Tuesday evening. Fun decor. Great price for what you get. My husband got a mango margarita which was OK, but very weak. Once we mentioned this to the waiter, he generously poured another shot in at no extra charge. Loved this. The price for the beer was unbeatable! That was my favorite part. The food was decent. I did not like my spinach quesedillas as the spinach tasted like bad frozen spinach. My husband and his friend really enjoyed their meals which were borritos and tacos. The appetizer chip dip we got was really awesome. It was a cheese/sausage combo. Couldn't get enough of that. In short, good bang for your buck! read more

Been here like 8 billion times. Wonderful, almost lightning quick service, best mexican place in the city hands down.

Not a bad food, not bad at all, but I feel food safety is not paramount - at all. Apparently they had a c from dhec, not while I was there, but a c signifies some issues. read more

This is your typical tex-mex restaurant. I get the same thing (beef burrito, refried beans, and cheese quesadilla) everywhere I go. The food came out quick and was good, just as I expected. The Dos Equis beer was great to go along with my dinner. My girlfriend got the margarita and I was disappointed in the amount of tequila. It was basically like drinking straight margarita mix. read more

The food was wonderful and our waiter was amazing. Myself and a good friend of mine went to senor tequilas this past Tuesday. Our waiter was very kind and patient with us. My friend suffers from severe anxiety and sometimes it takes her a while to decide what she wants to eat. The patients and the kindness of our waiter helped tremendously. Thank you very much. We will definitely be back to your location. read more

We found a chicken bone in our burrito and after letting the manager know about the bone (we were concerned because our two year old was eating it) we were told that it was a just a "little bone". Perfect for choking! Service was terrible. read more

RUSHED TO ER! DO NOT EAT HERE. I have an allergy to peanuts and told the server before I even ordered the severity of my allergy (mole sauce has ground peanuts; not all Mexican restaurants list this). He assured me he would check with the chef. Food came, I ate it and I knew something was wrong. I asked them to list the ingredients in the sauce - they did not list peanuts. By the time I did my epipen (because I was gasping for air) and was rushed to the ER, I was covered head to toe in a hives. After several hours in the ER they allowed me to go home. I wrote a letter to Señor Tequila 1. To make them aware of this life-threatening situation where I could have gone into cardiac arrest and died. 2. To inform them that their employees need to be educated on food allergies and cross-contamination that can occur in food preparation. 3. To ask them to pay for my medical bills that were $1500! They refused to pay or even address the matter. WILL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. They are also in a lawsuit if you want to google that.... read more

The staff and food is always predictable which is good. I always know that the service will be great and so will the food. In a town full or restaurants, predictable and consistency is so important. read more

I chose this place because it was the only "1-$" restaurant I could find while here on vacation. Very pleasant surprise! I ordered the Chicken Mushroom Salad off the lunch menu. Very good with an ample amount of excellent sweet creamy guacamole. Ice cold Dos Equis Amber at very reasonable prices. read more

Terrible service. Avoid at all cost. Waiter charged us full price for margaritas instead of happy hour price - then wouldn't come back to our table to fix the checks - we asked the waiter several times to come to our table, waved him down, etc and he blatantly ignored us. When he finally came to our table, 30 minutes later, he claimed it was 'no longer happy hour and we had to pay full price'. The manager then told us to 'chill out and relax' in a very condescending manner, while we're being very polite. Poor poor service and the food isn't great. Definitely go to Santis instead read more

The situation at Senior Tequila's in Mt. P. has improved dramatically. I am now eating there again and (for now) recommend it for good, relatively cheap tex mex. read more

My wife & I decided we'd try Taco Tuesday for our 1st Senor Tequila experience. What a disappointment! 1st our server didn't know the rules of $1.00 tacos. We were told only beef and chicken tacos were $1.00 and they could be Soft or Crispy shells. We were surprised at checkout to find only Crispy Shells apply. $6.50 Mistake + the soft tacos come w/ beans or rice +$2.55 mistake but I was charged for them. My wife ordered Crispy w/ a side of Black Beans. The server's helper brought out Soft Tacos w/ Re-fried Beans. Tried to explain but the helper didn't speak English. The checkout experience was a disaster. Tried to explain to the cashier the server told us Soft Chicken Tacos were $1.00 and he refused to call the server to verify. He seemed matter of fact about it. I was pretty upset and decided leave w/o confrontation. A little surprised when I looked at my CC charge this AM $40.87 for what was supposed to be (6) $1.00 Tacos - (1 ) side of Rice, (1) side of Beans, (1) dish of Jalapenos, (1) dish of Sour Cream, (2) Regular Pacifico drafts, 1 Texas Margarita (Happy Hour Prices were in effect) The meal was pretty good not exceptional however we thought we had found a good Mexican Restaurant EOC. It's a shame because we will likely not return because of management's attitude. read more

Food was okay. The service is extremely slow. Prices are kind of high for the seafood and dinner plates.

I cannot say enough about this wonderful establishment. The menu is traditional Mexican entrees at a VERY affordable price. Their food is excellent and I eat here at least once a week. The service is exceptional, very pleasant and friendly waiters. You are brought hot chips and fresh salsa immediately, and never have to waiting for your order. Always promising. I will eat here for ever and ever! I LOVE this place. read more

it was another boring night. i was hobbling around the house (sustained a nail injury to the foot earlier in the day. stupid me for being on the beach in the glaring sun. what was i thinking, anyway? but i have to say, the peeps with me were also irish and pasty, so we were burning ourselves together, which was somehow cool) when my friend (and distant cuz) summer called. margaritas and mexican food? why yes, i am always ready for margaritas and mexican, crippled or not. she drove; i hobbled. we settled for a pitcher (a mere 5 mini-bottles of tequila, which i always suspected was secretly spelled tokillya) and she launched into an in-depth when harry met sally-worthy ordering extravaganza. oh wait, and then changed it thirty seconds later and managed to be (i swear!) the most annoying customer ever. i waited tables for half a second, so i know i probably would've shrugged and left it up to god (or the chef to spit in her food), but our waiter was totally cool, even gave us each an extra shot of tekilya (because we really needed that) and, yes, samples of their various flavors of margarita (again, summer's request) so that we could make an educated ordering decision. wow, i just realized i'm actually reviewing the food/product/whatever in a yelp review. hell, i'm actually yelping. i mean, i could just get all philosophical about my hair or something. Anyway, all i mean to say is: these poor senor tequila people took some abuse and handled it so gracefully and kindly (even gave me what i thought was a candy necklace with our totally underpriced - because our waiter is awesome - bill. by the way, it wasn't candy. it was some hard indestructible material that can't be bitten into. i tried). i believe my greatest moment was when i realized the name of this joint is senor tequila. honestly, i couldn't think of a better name myself. senor tequila will take your annoying, your crippled, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, and give them some grade a margaritas. ...i decided that a restaurant review may involve more than just endorsing margaritas. so: the texan fajitas looked awesome (though summer complained that the vegetables were "too crunchy"), and i have yet to discover what qualifies them as particularly texan. i mean, are they dumber than other fajitas? probably. or just fatter. (haha! no really, i'm sorry, texas. my bad.) anyway, i got a pretty good spinach quesadilla for 5 bucks, and the guac was generally a mess and therefore pretty decent. in conclusion: by east of the mississippi standards, this mexican food was pretty good. read more

This place is great! I have been here 15-20 times. They are consistent, fast, and friendly. My favorites are the pollo mole, pollo chipolte, and the enchiladas suizas. All are delicious. The chips and salsa are good too. I always order a side of guacamole as well. Great place for cheap eats! read more

Food is pretty good however, I have been here twice and both times they tried to over charge me. First of all, one sliced (hard as a rock) avocado was $4.95, second, the up charge on a kids taco plate was $3.80 for grilled chicken instead of shredded chicken which made the kids meal $9.00. I politely complained to the owner who was a complete bitch and did not try in any way to work with me. I will never go back and I will tell all my friends and strangers how horrible the customer service was... At the very least l should have been told that the up charge was almost the same price as the meal itself! Annoyed with the entire situation.... read more

Foods good but service is pretty much nonexistent!! I had to ask for everything twice and even walk over to bar just to get drink refill, while the employees were chit chatting at the bar. This used to be a weekly outing for me but not anymore, the service has been steadily going down hill, next time I'll go to La Hacienda instead!! read more

This is some of the best Mexican food in Mt. Pleasant. Good prices, Fast service. A dizzying number of menu options. Kid friendly.

Went in on a weekday for takeout and the service was horrible. There was no one else in the restaurant but still had to wait a long time to just get a menu. The food was not the best....the chorizo queso was overly greasy and I had to scoop all of it out with a spoon and the rest was very plain tasting. Will not come back. read more

After having just left Santi's Mexican place up the road because of lousy service and even worse tortilla chips, this was a Godsend. GREAT server - friendly, helpful, patient, reeeeally good food, fast service. I would definitely recommend this for a moderately priced, well portioned, enjoyable meal. read more

This is the worst Mexican restaurant in Charleston. The quality of the food is poor. The fajitas were charred and burnt black and I couldn't eat them. My mom's fish tacos were extremely soggy and had bones. Also, the waiters were extremely rude. This was an awful experience and I don't suggest that any of you go here. read more
