I can't see or taste any bacon. I opened the burrito and see pretty much zero bacon. How pathetic, I will never again go to Catrina's what a terrible restaurant. See photo, anything that looks brown like bacon is actually the skin side of the potato. This is supposed to be a breakfast burrito with extra bacon.

I didn't understand why at first, but then we noticed that most of the chairs were already stacked on the tables and the staff was sweeping the floor. I asked if they were closed, but the man at the door said they were still open, so we were seated. Before we even had a chance to look at the menu, a server came over and told us we needed to move because they were about to mop that section. We moved without complaint. Our food came out fairly quickly, and it actually tasted good. Unfortunately, right as we started eating, they began mopping the floors with some kind of strong cleaner that made us nauseated. They mopped right by our table--my husband even joked that he was surprised they didn't ask us to lift our feet. By that point, several employees already had their coats on and were giving us looks like they just wanted us gone. We felt rushed, uncomfortable, and couldn't even finish our meal because of the chemical smell. The food itself was good, but the experience was terrible. No restaurant should start mopping floors with harsh cleaners while customers are still eating. That's just basic common sense. We won't be back.

Review Visit: December 22nd, 2015…read more Near perfection, in burrito form. Each town has a similar blueprint. Those staples include locally-owned: coffeehouses, ice cream shacks, a Chinese restaurant, and a Mexican restaurant. Almost every town has most of these, if not all of them. East Peoria isn't a large town, population-wise, but is sprawled out over a large area. This leads to it having quite a few of these staples and Tequila's is one of those staples. I've been here quite a few times, actually. The initial time was with my girlfriend, and then we came back for seconds a few months later, and then my sister wanted to come here for her birthday lunch. I will be mostly talking about the first visit but will include all visits in the overall narrative of the post. The buzz around Tequila's is that the food and flavor is fantastic. I heard the portions for the price were very generous and that you won't leave with an empty belly. This sounds like every other Mexican restaurant I've tried and I knew I would have to give this one a shot. It was a dreary and rainy day when we decided that we wanted to try something new without really having to drive far. Tequila's fit that one requirement perfectly. We arrived to warm smiles and friendly staff. As we sat there trying to decide what to order, we had our drinks and a huge heaping of chips and salsa placed in front of us. The chips and salsa may be my favorite and least favorite part of visiting Mexican restaurants. On one hand, chips and salsa are great. Then I hit the conflict point. Do I order queso blanco with it? I already know that I will regret how many chips I will eat. Adding in the queso blanco, I know I will go overboard with it. Melted cheese is so heavenly. After all these years, I still base what I order from these places based on the burrito I had from Pepper's in Port St. Joe in Florida. What I ordered at Pepper's was a giant burrito smothered in queso blanco. That is now my go-to meal and that is what I ordered at Tequila's. I don't recall specifically which burrito I've gotten here but looking at the online menu, it would be something like the Burrito Blanco. Again, with most Mexican restaurants, the food was out before the waiter had time to walk to the kitchen to submit your order. I still don't know how they make the food so quick but my hungry belly never complains. We had to give ourselves a moment to breathe as the chips and salsa had done a number on our appetite. Once we steeled ourselves for what was about to come, we dug in. It's not impossible to eat a big burrito that is smothered in cheese with your hands. In fact, that would be something worth watching someone else do. Or myself if I didn't have a beard. But no, this is the kind of food you have to eat with a fork. Which is probably for the best as you slowly start build to the point where you sigh and groan after every bite. But you can't stop yourself from eating since the food is so delicious. At least, that is my experience at Tequilas. My girlfriend was unable to finish her meal both times. She offered me her remaining food but I just looked at her bewildered. I am okay with waddling out to my car but she would've had to roll us home if I had another bite. Tequila's is really good food. Each time I've come here, I've regretted it about 30 minutes later when I question why my appetite thought it could put down all that food. But, it's an experience worth every bite... except that last one that pushed you over the edge. If you can't make it to Tequila's, check to see if there is a local one around you; it might just be the best belly-bursting place you've ever ate at.
