    Kids Meal: Chicken Tenders with Fries
    Kunnida C.

    I've always passed by here, but had never went in. Tried it for the first time this week and couldn't believe I've always skipped it. The ambiance was great, service was great, and best of all, foods and the selection thereof were fantastic! Hubby originally did not want to eat there, but after the first bite of our appetizer (Korean Fries), he enjoyed everything they had to offer. I love my Fajitas Chimichanga and he loves his Cuban, Blackened Fish, and Korean Tacos. They had half price Cocktails on Thursdays, but since we do not know how to drink alcohol, we didn't take advantage of that. I wished they had Mocktails included, which they did not. Can't wait to go there again!

    Tequila Mama has become a regular on our list of nights out. The environment is always fun, and energetic. The locations is awesome, parking easy, and then we can walk around Suwanee Town Center after dinner. My favorite start is an Old-Fashioned and the bartender here does a great job. The servers are friendly and attentive. While we have tried a lot of dishes on the menu and enjoyed them, the fajitas are a repeat favorite. If you are in the Suwanee area, looking for a fun, delicious dinner, please give Tequila Mama a try.

    This was a great experience. I am not a fan of the run of the mill Americanized Mexican restaurants but I have to admit this place delivered. The place was very kid friendly and the food / drinks were great. Christhian our server was fantastic. Overall a great place and will come back again

    2 Street Carne Asada Tacos with Cilantro Lime Rice
    Claire H.

    I didn't know what to expect when I first walked in. It looked like a casual restaurant, but with a variety of Mexican food and other food. It's mainly Mexican, and they have tacos, burritos, quesadillas, you name it. Their lunch specials are pretty decent price (around 11), especially for the street tacos. I got the carne asada street tacos with cilantro lime rice. The tacos were decent, but still had that bit of authenticity there. The meat was flavorful, but wish it was more saucy. The rice was also flavorful; reminds me of Chipotle rice in a way. Service was decent, like any other restaurant. Overall, I would come here again, but I'll try the al pastor tacos (my favorite)!!

    Mama's Queso Ground beef tacos
    Kay R.

    My friend and I met at Tequila Mama for an early dinner, and it was a great experience. The staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean, and service was efficient. For food and drinks, we had house margaritas, Mama's queso, ground beef tacos, and nachos. The queso and nacho portions were incredibly generous and more on the shareable side. Everything was delicious.

    Tres leches

    I went to this place with a friend She recommended it to me ( No I didn't check Yelp to see what the crowd had to say) We went on a early, cold Saturday evening Was pretty much able to sit wherever And the restaurant, though empty had a good vibe to it It's colorful, exciting to the eye Great festive vibes... I didn't spend much time looking around But did notice the people that were already there having a good time.. The waitress was pleasant, standard I would say If you ask me what did the menu consist of I would reply back with a question mark I ordered the Cubano bowl Pulled pork dish With rice and beans Plantain Avocado Well, it was good.. The pork was seasoned, I got notes of pineapple while eating it... like a sweetness from it Texture was good... The rice and beans was good And plantain sweet enough to be dessert ( yummy!) I would say they put just enough into it to have it above average... Like they just entered into that realm Definitely reminded me of a home cooked meal I liked it and would order it again The tres leches... Standard, nothing stuck out I didn't like that it was in a cup And noticed for more than a decade other restaurants Playing with this theme... I almost forgot I ordered it and ate it... I guess because it didn't have standard memory of Texture... All in all, I can say I recommend this place for one and all to go!!!!!

    This is a pretty tasty place. If you love Mexican, it'll probably hit the spot. The service has always been great every time I've been. It's a little pricey for the portions but the flavor is there. Parking can sometimes be a pain but hey, you'll be able to walk off some good food! The decorations inside are very gorgeous too!

    Shrimp taco and calamari taco
    Kousee L.

    I really loved the tacos! Got to try the specialty ones including the calamari and fried shrimp one. Super packed with flavor and the coleslaw on top was very fresh and tasted great. the reason why they are only getting 3 stars is because the margaritas was not on point. very far from the point... i got the Cadillac margarita and tasted like a house marg. from any other place. very disappointed. Service was decent, i sat at the bar and there was a nice lady bartender who was great but i was served by this guy and he was mehhh. overall, i will be back for the tacos only probably.

    Three way fajitas
    Jason H.

    Came here at a co-worker's recommendation. Staff were super friendly and service was great. That's the reason for the four star review. Food was just okay to be honest. Others in the group seemed to like their food better than I did. Lots of other amazing food options in Suwannee so I probably won't be back.

I ordered an appetizer--something that is supposed to come out before the main courses--but it didn't show up until 15 minutes AFTER the rest of our party had already been served their order. I had to remind the waiter, and when it finally arrived, it was completely mediocre and not worth the wait. My husband ordered the $50 ribeye special, only for it to arrive noticeably overcooked. To make matters worse, the table next to us was apparently part of the ownership, and they received nonstop attention: drinks constantly refilled, multiple plates of food brought out, and prompt service. Meanwhile, our table was essentially ignored. No one checked on us, asked if we were ready to order, or even bothered to refill our drinks. For the prices this place charges, the service should be exceptional--not nonexistent. This was a frustrating, overpriced experience, and no, we will not be returning! To make matters worse, when the waitress did finally come to settle up the bill, she did not bring a bill and only shoved her phone in front of my husband's face with the only options of a tip being 20, 25 or 35% tip! No copy of the itemized receipt, at all- NOTHING!

Its characterized by its opulent atmosphere that sets the mood for an enchanting night. The entire experience from the service to the delectable dishes are very well executed. One of the things that I enjoyed the most was the eye for detail. From the host stand to the dining room, nothing was out place and you could see the contemporary blends of Mexican Artesanía. Although I enjoyed every dish my favorite bites where the steak tartar & the carne asada that is paired with bone marrow. The dishes are cleverly crafted, it's not hard to tell that a lot of work was put into curating the menu. The drinks are just as as delectable. Their mixologist deserves a gold star! To my enjoyment they even provided me with a stand for my purse which was very much appreciated. The service was flawless! As for the rooftop, it's absolutely captivating with a skyline view of the city. They hold multiple events throughout the month that are both vivacious and festive with a striking assembly of beautiful people. Perfect to meet hot new singles in the city! Highly recommend for a girls night out. There are many photo worthy spots throughout the restaurant that would be perfect for photographs to fit your social media needs or just a great pic to commemorate a bewitching evening. They offer complimentary parking which is always a plus not to have that extra cost to my dining experience. Dress code is high end, polished attire. I definitely plan on coming back for both the dining experience and the rooftop parties, as I have a couple cocktail dresses that I'm dying to wear. Palo Santo has truly impressed me and can't wait to be back!

    The food is terrific, the owners are incredible and the staff is phenomenal. We've been going here…read moresince the early 2000s. The first server I had here welcomed me to Atlanta. It was a rainy day and my dad and I had arrived before I started grad school at Ga Tech. Our server was an Electrical Engineering student at Tech. It was appreciated after the typical chaos of moving to a new city that he happened over here my dad and I talking and he shared he went to Tech. Over the 2 decades since, I've brought friends who live here and from outside the city to enjoy the great serving and kitchen staff. My wife and I have been many times including on the restaurant's anniversary night last fall. We are sorry to hear the landlord has decided to raise the rent and sell the property. Heather has been our server multiple times. She was our server tonight as we celebrated my wife's birthday with her parents, aunt and sister. From calamari to the desert platter and entrees in between, the food was incredible. The fried lobster tails are a must. The mouse has been my wife's favorite for years. The one note is Jacob the General Manager needs to learn to trust his servers. At the beginning of the meal I let Heather know despite being a party of 7 to just bring the check to me and I'll settle up with the other guests via Venmo. And, at as we were finishing dessert, Heather came by letting me know the next party for our table was had arrived and could she bring our check. I said yes. While Heather was getting our check ($490 Food & $600+ after tip) the Manager came by telling us we needed to finish up and have our check brought. When I asked the Manager to not make this an unpleasant experience and that coming by after Heather had just communicated the situation and I had agreed she told me I should share this feedback with the General Manager. She, Jacob (GM), and I stood on the front patio where I explained what I'm sharing now: Trust your Servers. He said they were front facing and so the management likes to meet the guests. Having your Manager tell us we need to get our check and leave is not the way to meet your guests. Chef Jack and his wife (the owners) are hospitable and trust and appreciate their staff. Jacob having his Manager micromanage the servers management of tables is nowhere close the focus on service the owners have had for 26 years. I hope that Jacob and the Manager take this as a learning moment that if you hire talented people your trust talented people to bring their talents to their job. Sure it was busy. But, that's why Chef Jack hired the staff he hired. Jacob the GM needs to increase the communication with his talented team instead of using the excuse of being front facing to ever overstep their bounds on the relationship his servers have built with his guests. Heather introduced herself when we sat down. Jacob did not - nor should he have. Heather did a phenomenal job making us feel welcome, have food and drink we enjoyed, and even recognizing my wife's birthday with her favorite desert. And when the time came she handled coordinating bringing the bill and having us free the table so a new group could enjoy an evening at Agave. Jacob and the Manager need to trust their staff more. Micro-management is never a good look for your staff's morale or your guests' impressions. Please go see them for Jan 31st 2026 when they close. The servers are all wonderful as are the owners. And the food is like nothing else in Atlanta. The management simply needs to trust the talented staff from front to back of house with whom they get to work. If they're ever in doubt if a server is either providing the level of service they expect or turning tables at the rate needed to keep pace with reservations then talk to the server. The server needs to own their tables. Management should truly be of service to their staff - and you can only do that with trust and communication. Customers should never know management had a single question if the sever was doing what's needed. Because it's a bad look to come by twice about being the check. Especially when the 2nd time is in between the 1st ask if they could and the server bring the check. Of note, I already had my credit card out so that I could hand it to Heather as soon as she returned with the check. And in front of the manager, I handed Heather my credit card. Everything else was great. But, why rush guests?

From the very first bite of my burrito, I was pleasantly surprised--it was absolutely delicious! As a burrito enthusiast, I can confidently say it was the best-tasting burrito I've ever had, with a flavor profile unlike any I've experienced before. My buddy shared similar sentiments about the grilled meats on his plate. Curious about the sauce, we asked our server, who informed us it's a signature sauce they developed for all their meats. The rice and refried beans were perfect. The chips and salsa were also excellent. In summary, our visit to Hidalgo's Mexican Grill turned out to be one of the best lunches we've had.
