The food, service, and ambiance was amazing. The decor was so unique. Every wall was covered in interesting and beautiful sugar skull portraits. I had the vegetarian tacos and they were so yummy! read more

Taco N Tequila - Sugar skull portrait - Mexican Near Me - Niagara Falls, Ontario

Can truly never go wrong with any dish or drink here! Full of authentic flavour, good vibes (especially in the summer), and great service! The only thing to be mindful of is the wait as it usually gets busy at peak hours especially when the sun is out! read more

I had made reservations for a Thursday night and I regret nothing. The place was packed, but not crazy crowded. We were seated in less than 5 minutes upon arrival. Victor was our waiter and he was marvelous. The way he goes from table to table is almost like he has on roller skates. The lighting is like a hue of blue and a little dim, but enough light so you can see the menu. Very casual environment. You can tell folks come in groups and have fun there. Of course I had to start off the night with a margarita! I chose the blue one and it did not disappoint! So yummy! The asada fries were good. I really like their inhouse hot sauce! Flavor and spice and just right. My barbacoa tacos were absolutely delicious! It had everything I needed on all 3 of them. The side of beans and rice were just as delicious! And not to mention that it was birthday so they brought out a giant sombrero, placed it on my head, let me choose my dessert with a sparkler, and sung happy birthday! the only thing I wish was that it was sung in Spanish, but other than that it was awesome. My churros and caramel were the perfect dessert to end my night. read more

Ate here twice as it was a quick walk from the hotel. The food came out extremely quick and was flavorful. A bit disappointed with the alcoholic drinks (too sweet, and not very much alcohol?), but the non-alcoholic ones were delicious. Loved the 'side salad' with most of the entrees. It was very fresh and lightly dressed and paired well with our choices. I liked it much better than the salsa! As for ambiance the artwork inside is beautiful. However, we were there in the summer and the restaurant opened to the outside. Unfortunately there were quite a few yellow jackets flying around, even inside (to be expected outside.) It was a bit unnerving for some of our diners, but the meal was quick. Be mindful of the hours if you have kids 16 and younger, after 9pm the vibe changes (noted on their website.) read more

Vibes in the restaurant was nice. Cocktails tasted good and they also have huge sizes for their drinks, great for sharing. Food was okay. Service was good, staff was friendly. Would recommend making a reservation as there was a long lineup when we went. read more

Review from an American... Pros: Service was great, the servers did well. we got the enchilada verdes. Super good! Nice and tangy! The taquitos were good as well. Guac was good. Margaritas were phenomenal! Jalapeno and mango. Definite taste the alcohol, not for the weak. Lovely atmosphere. Great decor. Con: the salsa tastes like straight up marinara. The rice was not good... Would definitely come again. read more

Taco N Tequila - Enchiladas verde and tequitos - Mexican Near Me - Niagara Falls, Ontario

I used to LOVE this place. I've been many times before.. but after tonight.. I probably will not be back. the food is great, atmosphere is amazing but tonight was a different story. We made a reservation for a high top, came 15 mins early.. the hostess tells us we had to leave the high tops by 6pm (45 mins later?) because of another reservation .. I was so confused and tried to understand that logic because WE also made a reservation but they would NOT allow any later. Now about the service: I am not a fan of breaded fish, but I love all the fixings on the fish tacos, so years ago a waitress there told me to substitute the fish for shrimp! tonight I asked for my usual order of this, and the server I formed me it's not possible, said he asked and the owner refused ? he said they will no longer substitute anything since 2 weeks ago. fine. I ordered something else. my sister and I ordered chicken tacos, first my sister finds a hair in her chicken.. I then find hair in mine... we tell the server and he tells us no women are in the kitchen.... after everything we asked if the restaurant was taken over by new owners or something ? and nope.. just changed rules on food. I'm sad to write this because the place used to be our go to... but since they cannot make tiny changes for their customers and charge full for food after hair was found in both meals.. sadly they've lost a few customers now. read more

Taco N Tequila - My delicious margarita - Mexican Near Me - Niagara Falls, Ontario

This is a restaurant around the Niagara Falls area that is a bit overhyped. Inaccurate wait times and somewhat overpriced tourist trap are main factors for our subpar experience here. We went around 8:30pm (quite late) and were still quoted a 30 min wait which ended up closer to over an hour, which is not acceptable. We would've just dipped for another restaurant but there weren't viable options late on a Sunday, and I guess sunk cost fallacy. The food here is also not too good for such a high price - converting CAD to USD, the dishes here are priced at or above a typical restaurant priced in USD, indicating a tourist trap since the food is just okay. I tried the campechanos and enjoyed the mixed meat, and we got the chimichanga with barbacoa that is fairly huge but not too filling. For dessert, we got the strawberry cheesecake chimichanga that allowed us to be full. We got the 45oz margarita slushed and it was huge enough for 2-3 people to share. Service is just okay - a bit slow, even though most of the tables have left by the time we have seated. Overall, not the best option I presume. read more

Amazing! Great food and attentive, friendly service (thanks Laura!). I would definitely go back!

That was a wonderful place. Laura the bartender is so cool. The food was great You need to try the sangria's read more

Expensive, misleading, Asada fries, scrimping order, hardly any fries....wouldn't go back

This restaurant/bar has a really cool vibe. The decor is very festive celebrating Frida Kahlo and Day of the Dead (although the amount of light inside made reading the menu's a bit difficult). The servers were helpful providing suggestions and explaining the dishes. The taquitos were crispy and flavourful. The chorizo tacos were delicious. The chimichanga was my only disappointment, as it was primarily filled with beans and rice with barely any chicken to be found. The margaritas were close to perfection. read more

Went to this restaurant on a Friday night. There was a line out of the door but we were seated within 5 minutes of waiting. They do not have a kids menu. We ordered the chicken quesadilla for three kids to share. The waitress said the portion was big. It wasn't enough for them to split. I ordered the burrito bowl. The rice had hard pieces , I think I was given the pegao (the overcooked bottom of the rice). I asked the waitress if that was how they serve the rice. She said no and gave me a small amount of rice. It was in a salsa serving dish. It still had hard overcooked rice in it. The steak in my bowl was bland. We also ordered the steak fajitas. The steak was also bland and had no flavor. If you want rice and beans it's extra. I would not return again. The staff were attentive and friendly but the food is over priced and doesn't taste good. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

The food is consistently fantastic and the service is AMAZING! One of my fav spots in Niagara Falls. Especially if you are going to a show at the OLG Stage. It's basically across the street! Authentic Mexican too read more

We enjoyed the outdoor patio on a warm September evening. The Three Amigos appetizer was very good (and filling!). The birria tacos were just okay. read more

Loved the authentic Mexican food and margaritas, beats any chain restaurant. Definitely a place to check out at the Falls for great atmosphere. I'm gluten free and loved all the options tried the tacos pollo al pastor they were awesome. Perfect blend of savory spicy and sweet as they add grilled pineapple. My bartender Laura was great and I would certainly go back. read more

Nooooo! First blush- the ambiance is cute. The folks working here were nice. They have Sol beer which is one of my favs and hard to find at Mexican restaurants. Waking through, I looked at the food at others' tables ( not in a creepy way. LOL) The queso dip looked extremely thin. The quesadillas were also very very thin, cheese on the inside only. So I got back to the table and told my husband "let's start with some chips n salsa and give the menu a good look." His next words were,"$11.00." I was blown away. Yep $11 for chips n salsa. Who is doing that?! 1 beer each and we dipped out. read more

We had the best mole of our lives here! Who knew I'd find that in Canada. We came here on a whim when we were walking from our hotel and looking for diner. We were sat outdoors under umbrellas, it was comfortable and staff was attentive. My husband was pleasantly surprised to find Sol beer here, which is his favorite and hard to find. I had some delicious fish tacos and we left very satisfied. It was nice to find a good non-touristy restaurant in the area. read more

Food here was good. We had fajitas. The one we chose had chicken steak and chorizo. $35. It was enough for two people because it also came with beans and rice. But we had to ask for two more wraps. So each person got three big wraps. The place is not real big but it also has outside seating they set us outside but it was super loud The music was to loud. So they put us inside and that was better. The service wasn't the best but it was really busy in there it's right off the beaten path of the Niagara Falls area. But there's free parking in the back parking lot so that was good. The food came hot and it tasted really good so it hit the spot. My sister had a chimichanga with shrimp and she said it was really good. Everybody was pretty friendly and it had a lively atmosphere. The lady's next to us got the $35 margaritas which were huge. I guess it would be enough for two people. Overall it was a fun experience. Had some cool artwork on the walls. read more

Food is exceptional. We got there and was going to a concert. 20 min wait ended up being 40-44 min wait. A reservation came in and were 15 or more late and they still accommodated them over us! This is not fair practice . Puts a bad taste with us. read more

The food was delicious, the mango daiquiri was so yummy, and big me and my husband both split it. The ambiance was quiet but not dead. It was like any other Mexican restaurant. The service was really good. He explained what we had and gave us recommendations when we asked. The chips and salsa were great. In the USA where we're from we're used to getting them free before your meal, here you had to pay for them. Overall it was a nice dining experience in Niagara Falls. read more

Taco N Tequila - Ranch, chipotle bacon quesadillas - Mexican Near Me - Niagara Falls, Ontario

Called for a reservation and was told we had to book online, which is fine. When we try to book online our party (7 people) it says our party is too big so it says to contact the restaurant. So we call back, now apparently we have to DM them through Instagram to book a reservation??? Not sure why they can't just book over the phone but they lost a customer as a result. I'm sure the food is great, but that's just poor customer service. read more

My daughter found a Yelp review for Taco n Tequila as we walked away from our Journey Behind the Falls @ Niagara Falls today. There was no question that we would go there--every other option was a chain restaurant that we see everywhere. We earned our late lunch for sure walking up the hill to TnT from Niagara Falls Park, but it was totally worth it. Although we had to wait for a table on the deck, it was a fun and surprising wait...I learned the legal drinking age in Canada is 19. I sat at the bar with my 20 year old and 24 year old and shared a Margarita flight in red, white, and blue! Lunch was delicious! Fish tacos, chicken tacos, and carne asada tacos, perfectly sized and perfectly unique. We were so happy to sit on the deck and enjoy the sunshine. Taco n Tequila is the place to go in Niagara if you want to avoid the chain restaurants. Why eat at the same old places you find at home when you're on vacation, when you can find places like this?? read more

Stopped in hoping for a nice meal, but left completely frustrated. We were seated outside in the blazing sun with no shade, even though the restaurant was nearly empty -- including multiple shaded tables. When we politely asked to move to a more comfortable spot, we were told flat out no without any explanation. No flexibility, no apology, just a rude dismissal. It was over 90 degrees, and we were literally sweating at the table. The staff showed zero concern for our comfort, which is especially disappointing considering how empty the place was. At that point, we decided to leave -- if a restaurant can't show basic human decency, it doesn't deserve our business. There are too many good restaurants out there to waste time on one that treats guests like a nuisance. Won't be back read more

First night in Niagara, Great food, I had the street tacos with pork rinds, long wait(30 mins, with no reservation) and we were told that we had 1.5 hours to enjoy our meals due to the stacked reservations. The staff was pleasant and service was quick! read more

We came to Taco N Tequila a little less than hour before closing, a bit concerned as several places in the area are rude when you arrive close to closing time. The front desk girls were super accommodating and friendly to our party of five. Our server was Christa, she quickly took out orders and politely clarified questions, helped with menu decisions. She kept coming back to check on our table the entire time. We had steak tacos, enchiladas, quesadilla and chips and salsa. Everything was delicious. Steak was tender and flavorful. Chips were warm and disappeared in minutes. We decided we'll be back again tomorrow with friends. read more

Visiting Niagara area for work and wanted to get some Mexican food and a few beers to cap off my night. I stumbled upon TnT while searching and I was not disappointed. I sat at the bar and was immediately waited on by one of the available employees. My first round of drinks were at my table within a minute of ordering. Service was great throughout the night. Food was good, I ended up getting tacos with rice and beans which were perfectly filling. The only reason for 4 out of 5 was the pricing. A bit on the high side ($17 for Queso?), but PARTIALLY understandable because of the tourist nature of the area. Had the prices been a bit more agreeable I would give five stars. read more

Front of house is incredibly inefficient. It's clear they don't manage reservations well. Not a great experience and well choose elsewhere.

I saved this place before heading to Niagara Falls because the reviews were so good. The food was good especially the crispy chicken tacos! The only problem we faced while here was that the bees followed us from the outdoor patios into the inside of the location. One flew into my margarita and when I let the waitress know I needed a new one she brought one out. When we got the bill both margaritas were still on the bill. I understand that I drank 1/2 of the first margarita but it's not my fault that a Yellowjacket flew into my drink when I was sitting inside. I'm a waitress and I know very well that if a Yellowjacket flew into food or someone's drink that we would take it off the bill or give a discount. Other than that the salsa was good and the tacos. read more

We went towards the beginning of October and the crowds were much smaller. So, we were able to get in and be seated immediately. The server, Alyssa, was friendly. We were able to order and get our food in a relatively quick manner. The chimichanga and nachos tasted fresh without the overbearing seasonings and spices. I would definitely recommend this place if you're visiting Niagara Falls. read more

We sat down with only a little wait. The waitress was very good and the food was excellent. I highly recommend this place.

Went for dinner since it was close to the hotel. We were seated quickly and the service was great. Only negatives were that the music was way too loud, the place had no air conditioning and the menu was not accurate (menu said i could upgrade to soup, but they don't do soup). I had carne aside and upgraded to fries. The food was pretty good. read more

I feel bad for the not so good reviews for this place because my boyfriend and I enjoyed the food a lot. We ordered the beef barbacoa nachos, tres carnes fajita and the 45 oz margarita. Yes, you read it right -- 45oz margarita. They were all delicious and tasted fresh! My only complaint is that the margarita did not seem to have alcohol in it. Lowkey bummer. I recommend placing a reservation because they do get very busy. My bf and I went there for dinner and there was a long line outside. Thank god for the reservation because we were seated right away. We had an outdoor seating and the weather was as perfect thankfully. After we placed our drinks order, manager approached us and offered to comp our app if we can move to another table to accommodate a disabled person. We obliged and our appetizer did get comped. Almost didn't get comped though because there was some minor miscommunication between servers and manager about it. No worries though since it was taken care of without any issues. Decor is cute! Bathrooms are downstairs/basement. Gotta warn you that the bathroom stalls are incredibly tight and small. My knees were touching the door as I sat down on the toilet and I'm 5'2. So good luck if you are taller or if you have longer legs. Definition try this restaurant if you're visiting Niagara Falls! read more

TLDR: Excellent spot for drinks and Mexican food. Home to the 45oz Margarita, amazingly friendly staff, and a nice patio! (Slightly) longer review for those not in a hurry: Taste (5/5) : I ordered the Botana Platter which had chick taquitos, jalapeno poppers, and yucca fries. I LOVED this. Although a bit pricier, it was well worth it. Everything was very fresh and the textures worked perfectly with the flavours. They did note when we seated that their dishes aren't spicy, but still authentic (I asked them for spicy recommendations). I figured that since Niagara Falls is such a touristy area, they had to make things less spicy for those less spicy people! They had an in-house hot sauce that was real spicy though, so my spice craving was still satisfied. I also ordered the steak fajita and fish tacos, all of which came piping hot. Everything was delicious, but the flavours were still fresh and stood out dish between dish. Definitely recommend! Place (4/5) : I'm not a drinker, so I was only able to oggle at the 45oz margaritas other people were ordering (it was the size of a medium bowl of pho). The patio was great and open though, and the bar area was festive. I can see this spot being quite nice even in the winter months with the closed patio. The ambiance in the restaurant itself is great! Check them out! Got recommendations for me to try? Hit me up! Follow my insta @joelyho for more yummy stuffs. read more

Very surprised to find this place. Food did not disappoint. Queso was not exactly what we have gotten anywhere else but was still tasty. Churros we missed on the menu but our server asked.
