Stopped by after the Canton Farmers Market and wanted a placed where we could sit with our dog. They have a few tables out front on the side walk which worked well. Food was good, service was excellent! Had the guacamole, and the Tropical salad and of course a Texas Margarita . Impressed! Salad was fresh, well seasoned and the Margarita was delicious! Parking is easy as it's in a strip mall. Not fancy, but interesting menu choices and good service. read more

Tecali Grille - Salad Tropical - Mexican Near Me - Canton, Georgia

We came by while in town to shop local and found this quaint authentic Mexican restaurant. It is tucked into a strip mall where an ingles is located with ample parking. Clean, small place but big on flavor and customer service. We were immediately welcomed upon arrival and asked where we wanted to be seated as we were the only customers at this early hour. We chose a partial booth and chairs which was ideal for our party of 5. We quickly ordered waters, cokes, and a few Coronas. Our orders were taken quickly and our food came out hot and fresh! We ordered cheese dip and an app that I cannot remember the name of but was absolutely delicious. We ordered kids chicken nuggets, kids taco, grilled veggie quesadilla, and two other meals that their names escape me but all was delicious. We highly recommend a stop here for a delicious meal anytime they are open. We will be back! read more

I was warmly greeted and the waiter was also friendly and attentive. Complimentary chips and salsa were served and the chips had crunch and the salsa was tasty with nice veggie chunks. I tried the Carnitas and the pork was tender and flavorful and served on a heated plate. The accompaniments of refried beans, rice, pico, and flour tortillas were nice. As was the side of guacamole that I ordered in addition to my entrée. The small interior is comfortable and welcoming, although the TV was a bit of a distraction. There are a few sidewalk tables for when the weather is warmer. read more

Excellent service, great food and margaritas in a comfortable and friendly environment.

Delicious food! I've been going here for years. Best cheese dip, ever! I could drink it with a straw.

Food was delicious. Full of fresh flavor. Wonderful friendly service. Had combination lunch plates. Enchilada and Burrito, Tostada.

Pollo con Queso is my go-to, and their iced twa is some of the best in Canton. Always friendly and fast service, and fair prices. Weekly Saturday meal for the family. read more

Tecali Grille - Great food, great service, reasonable price. - Mexican Near Me - Canton, Georgia

Can't believe this place gets good reviews! Atmosphere and service was ok, but food was below mediocre. Would definitely not go back.

The woman I love and I decided to try something that wasn't on our "usuals" radar. Tecali Grille did not disappoint. Tucked away in a strip-shopping center, it might be easy to ignore this family-owned establishment. But for "tex-mex" you won't be disappointed. I might even be liking this place more than our "usual" Mexican dining destination. On our first visit, I ordered the Bistec Cebollas. This was delicious--with hot, hand-made tortillas, this steak and onions combination was a savory treat. Easily a step or two above "regular tex-mex." I had the Pollo con Queso on our second visit. (Basically the innards of a chicken quesadilla on a bed of rice with some pico de gallo on the side.) Again, this totally made me a very happy man. Service has also been very fast and friendly. At the "other favorite restaurant," the manager / owner doesn't wave goodbye to you on departure. She does, here. I was expecting a run-of-the-mill tex-mex affair. I found much more than that. I found good food and a friendly staff. I'll certainly look forward to going back for more. Holler if you're coming with. read more

It's the "Cheers" of Mexican restaurants! I've never had anything bad. My go-to meals are chicken fajitas and chicken soup.

Yum yum yum. I loved everything we ordered. The service was pretty good even though they were busy. They have a very spicy and delicious green habenero sauce. The cheese dip with jalapeno peppers was a winner to. We will be back read more

This truly is my favorite Tex-mex place to eat at in canton Georgia, we eat here at least every two weeks, the owner Sebastian comes our and greats the customers and treats you like family. The restaurant is small and quaint and family oriented and there is no stranger in the place. It is hard to get a seat sometimes because this is where the regulars always come to eat. read more

Tecali Grille - the dining area of the restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Canton, Georgia

Due to needing a quick meal while on the north side of town, Tecali was our only option due to not wanting drive through. It's your typical Mexican restaurant atmosphere. Booths, tables, the norm. Our server quickly arrived with chips & salsa in hand. She took our drink order and scurried away. Ok, I'm a chips & salsa girl, which is why I'm only giving them 3 stars. The salsa was good but the chips were not my fav. I like them thin and super crispy. These lacked both. I order the carne asada which is my go to at a Mexican joint. It was good, not great. All in all the meal was ok. I wouldn't ditch if friends wanted to go back, but don't think I would go out of my way to go back. read more

My favorite Mexican place. Good strong drinks that are not full of ice, good health score, great service, and they don't nickel and dime you for the little stuff. The food is great, I got the Dual stuffed peppers. Homemade salsa. (I prefer no celantro, but I get it) read more

This has been one of my family's favorite Mexican restaurants for many many years. Every time I came in from LA to visit, everyone said... We are going to Tecali. Great margaritas and great food (I usually get fajitas which I love). On top of that the ownership (Sebastian) and workers treat you like family. See you guys soon! read more

Fantastic little place. Great service and great price for terrific food. Very friendly people. Will definitely be returning

A typical hole in the wall type of establishment, which has usually been good to me as far as Mexican cuisine is concerned. Unfortunately, I was completely underwhelmed by my food and the Tecali's ambiance. When we walked in, the place was a ghost town, which was surprising considering it was a Sunday during football season. This should have served as a warning sign to my wife and I. When our server finally did come out from behind the bar, she sat us down and promptly returned with chips and salsa. This was actually pretty good tasting salsa, sadly, that was the end of the highlights for us. When our entree's came out they were hot; however, heat can't make up for dull and lifeless food. The fajitas and taco's that were ordered were over cooked and under seasoned. Our food was drowning in cheese and grease. We tried, but after a few minutes, we simply paid our bill and left. Skip this place and hit Taco Bell, at least at Taco Bell its cheaper. read more

I had an excellent lunch there yesterday with great service! The food was delicious and the servers were friendly and attentive.

I hate to write bad reviews of local restaurants. Especially ones I remember being so good! On the positive side, our service was great, from start to finish! Everyone was very friendly, which is why it pains me to say this is the Absolute worst food, Mexican or otherwise I have had out anywhere! There were three of us for lunch, we all had something different, me the Salad, others, had tacos and burritos. It wasn't that the food wasn't good, it was the kind of food that made you wonder even as we ate it, if we were going to be sick later. Thankfully we were not! Zero flavor, zero appeal or taste! read more

I had a soup which was fairly good, which go this place its second star, but the burrito was not so good. I have had better beef at a taco bell drive-through. Wife ordered a cheese dip with Chorizo.......took a wile to come out because, as the waiter informed us "they had to thaw the cheese and chorizo because it was still frozen." Overall, won't be going back here. Will be eating at the more authentic taqueria's around town instead. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in canton! My favorite dish is the Pollo con Queso with vegetables. I choose this restaurant over any chain restaurant in the area. The service here is amazing. My server was quick, efficient, and very kind. My food was exquisite!! I 10/10 recommend to anyone in the Canton area. read more

This is ABSOLUTELY the BEST MEXICAN restaurant in the Canton Woodstock area. We found it when we were in Canton today. BEATRICE was our server. She welcomed us when we came in. The menu is extensive. Many choices. The salsa was the best we have ever had. We actually bought some to take home. My husband had an awesome burrito and I had a taco enchilada. I've never seen that on a Mexican menu. We would definitely suggest you try this restaurant. We live in Woodstock and will definitely make the trip back. The other thing we noticed is they have alot of loyal customers. People came in and were greeted by name. That says alot about this restaurant. read more

I had the carnitas. That were amazing. Seems like it is family run and the service is great. Salsa is fantastic. I will certainly be back and recommend it to anyone looking for good Mexican food. read more

Closest place I can find to being as close to authentic Mexican food in Cherokee county.

Love this place. I come and get take out just about every week! Fast and friendly! Restaurant is very clean and they play good music

This is the best place to get your Mexican Food on. Owner is involved with the cooking, waitress and waiters have been there for years. Very nice and comfy stop to have dinner read more

Our favorite Mexican Restaurant. The owner is awesome. Amazing food. Salsa is always perfect. Eat here all the time. Great service.

If you like a restaurant that has great food and a friendly/family atmosphere, you need to stop in and try Tecali Grille. This is Mexican the way it should be, the way it tasted when I was actually in Mexico. The restaurant is family run, and many of the Canton locals know how good it is and come in on a regular basis. It is an awesome alternative to the Mexican "chain" restaurants. ENJOY!!! read more

Chicken quesadilla and a mango tea? Can you say "Yum"? Definitly visit this establishment at least once if you haven't already. This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Canton. It is a very laid back and unassuming place with good food. A great place to just go out with the buds. read more

We eat here almost every week, as do many people in the know here in Canton, almost always for lunch. We try to go early to beat the lunch rush and get one of the more choice booths. The salsa is really excellent, sometimes I actually have cravings for it. It is really fresh with a lot of cilantro and is a big chunk style rather than the blender paste style that some places have. My Dad and I always have the lunch fajitas. My wife has the fajita quesadilla with queso. She was never a big fan of Mexican until Tecali won her over and is secretly jealous of the 'business lunches' I have with my Dad. read more

Love this place. It is one of the few locations where we find the food is consistently high quality in the Canton area. The servers are all very nice. The owners are top-notch down to earth people - we are thankful to have this restaurant in the area. The guacamole is excellent and always fresh. The caldo tlalpeno is very good. Prices are very reasonable. Great value overall. read more

The 4 of us stopped in on Father's Day to have a few tacos and a pitcher of Texas margaritas and the food was okay, nothing special, but the so called Texas margaritas was pure water. I told the owner Isabella the $20 pitcher was very weak and was told "Okay." Really!!! no customer service. We paid for the water and next time I will go to 7 Tequila grill just up the road. We really miss Iggy the original owner. It was much better when he was there. The food was better and No water was served unless you asked for it. read more

This place has always been awesome! I grew up in canton and no other place in town compares. Definitely my favorite place to stop by when I am home from school. The people that gave it bad ratings are too picky! read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. The wait staff is always friendly and courteous and I think the food is truly authentic. The ingredients are always fresh and I love their salsa. To die for. Also the prices are reasonable. read more

Food is pretty good! The service can def be hit or miss!!! We had an extremely rude waitress last night who we will never let serve us again. read more

I've been here only one other time, it was really good that last time. This time service was slow and we had two waiters, the plate was extremely hot but the mood was awful warm, serving sizes are small for the price and the quality of the chicken was not good. I recommend to go on a day they are busy. read more

Took the family for dinner here. Salsa is good but everything else was lackluster. Food was cold and bland. Waitress forgot part of order and overcharged for cheese dip. There are better choices for Mexican around this area. read more
