Let me go ahead and tell you real quick. After years and years of vacationing at OCMD, kid's dad suggested we eat here. Never again. Best thing about this place was our waitress. The salsa was more pico de gallo, but it tasted a little pickle-y. I ordered a tequila on the rocks to get me started. My lunch was grilled fish tacos. The fish was ok but the oicked onions ruined it for me. I ordered small queso to help flavor it. Usually it can be runny but here it was stiff. I took a couple bites if the rice. No. No flavor but not good and no bell peppers or corn in it The beans.... they came in a small portioned cup. They also were stiff. Who serves beans in a cup? They did have Mexican flair but were playing 80's pop on the speakers. I wouldn't go again nor recommend. read more

Best margaritas ever! They have a ton of different flavors but the house marg is good too. My husband got the habanero marg and he was spiced out for sure and our buddy got the Frozen House Marg. I enjoyed a margarita on the rocks with Herradura Añejo and it was excellent! We got the chicken quesadillas as an appetizer and they were really good with fresh pico de gallo. They have happy hour from 3-6 so we tried to go back the next day with a larger group but they were super busy and our group didn't want to wait. Jen at the bar was the best! Super friendly and the best taste in earrings! read more

Great decorations all relating to TEQUILA! Had nice service at the bar. Great spot to share a carafe of sangria with 3 people. We got 9 glasses out of it, granted you will have ice in your glasses! Not too sweet and not too dry! I'll have to come back and try the food some time! It was a good spot for a drink before we all got crabs at the Crab Bag. read more

Came here REALLY hungry. Left unsatisfied because the margarita I ordered was basically just juice no liquor. The Popeye Enchilada (I added chicken too it) was NOT good. The rice looks and tasted so off. I'm not sure how the others are reviewing this place positive. The only good part is the staff being nice but that's it. Would not recommend. read more

So I was super exited to try this place. But I tried there fajitas. The shrimp and steak were wonderful. But the peppers were cut to big, and were hard as a rock :/ I don't believe I'll be back. Also when they replaced them it was hard as a rock and burnt! The waitress was very rude to me about it. And snapped at me when I said I'd just like a refund. Manager was nice and he was the best part of my experience read more

We stopped in for lunch before a music festival--kind of an odd time to eat, so the restaurant was relatively empty. Overall, though, it was a pretty good experience. Our waiter was friendly, and the food came out piping hot with generous portions. The complimentary chips and salsa were a great start--zingy and fresh. On the other hand, the signature guacamole was disappointing: flat flavor, lacking seasoning, and definitely in need of more salt. The entrées are huge. I split the chicken enchiladas with a friend, and there was still more than enough to share. I appreciated that they used grilled chicken inside instead of shredded--it gave the dish better texture and flavor. The rice and beans were hearty and satisfying. Others in our group enjoyed their chicken tacos, seafood enchiladas, and shrimp quesadillas, all of which looked plentiful and filling. One downside: the bathrooms could use a serious deep clean--they didn't match the otherwise solid dining experience. read more

Tequila Mockingbird is a small, Tex-Amex place around 110/115th street! My friend and I went around 6pm and had to wait 25 min before getting seated. The restaurant was packed, which is always a good sign. We were eager to eat, so we ordered our food as soon as we got seated. Within 10 minutes, we had 3 ginormous tacos in front us. I got the short rib tacos and my friend got the chicken ones. We left full and happy :)) Menu hack: their chips and guac is $15, but your table comes with chips. We just ordered a side of Guac for $3 and essentially had the same thing read more

TM has been around for many years and this was my first time back in quite some time and I found it very changed and not for the better. They still have a large selection of margaritas but many are made with premade mix. Prices are higher than they should be for the quality of margarita they serve. I cannot speak for the food as we did not have any but it looked and smelled very good. Service is attentive but could be more friendly. read more

Seafood Enchilada was amazing. The rice was fresh with some hot of lime and the Black beans boasted some dark flavors. Couple all of that with a house margarita and this lady of mine was in heaven. Great service but we opened the place this day at noon! read more

Tequila Mockingbird - Seafood Enchilada & House Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

We went early in the evening and the place wasn't crowded, but the atmosphere was flat -- no music and no energy. Service was fine, nothing special. The food was disappointing. My wife's Tequila Burrito tasted oddly like chicken noodle soup. I ordered the pork belly tacos, but they weren't pork belly -- more like pork shoulder -- and the meat was dry. Portion size was fine, but everything was bland and didn't seem fresh. The margaritas were also a letdown -- overly sweet, like they were made with a mixer instead of fresh ingredients. For the price ($20 for tacos, $14 for a margarita), the quality just wasn't there. Between the flat vibe, bland food, and overpriced drinks, I wouldn't go back or recommend it. 2 stars because the server was friendly enough. read more

Our Order: We ordered the Chicken fajita with refined beans anfld rice, Atlantis burrito, and an El Nino soft taco. For our drinks we got a sweet tea, a Negra modelo, red sangria, and a mockingbird margarita. Execution of Our Order: Our food was cooked well, although it was seasoned at all and was sadly quite bland. The sangria was different if you like spices in your sangria this is for you and if you don't like spices you won't like this drink. The margarita was good and it was made correctly. Seating: Very spacious with only indoor seating they have tables and booths. Staff and Services: Staff is very friendly and welcoming, sadly service here is extremely slow and one of the waitresses had their kid here and was letting them run wild in the restaurant which is inappropriate. Drink Menu: They have a rather small drink menu but the drinks are made correctly and taste good Food Menu: They have quite a nice selection on their food menu. The menu selection is quite extensive. There is definitely something for everyone here. Prices: $$ Sadly in this case the price is not worth the quality of food you receive. Cleanliness: The restaurant was clean, the floors were up kept very well, and the tables were clean. Ombiance: Quiet and family friendly. Overall Experience: My overall experience here was rather lack luster. Rating: 5/10 Recommendation: I definitely recommend this place for mixed drinks and the wine. However I do not recommend this place for food. Family Friendly: Stroller/Wheelchair Friendly: read more

Good food. Good pico and chips. The rice bowl needs something savory, and Mexican rice instead of cilantro rice. Margarita was ok- too much sour mix. Beans were not great, but I've had worse. read more

Service was good and friendly. Ordered tacos with short rib and chimichuri. That's was real good. Nice selection of margaritas that are no joke. May have found a go-to for Mexican style food. read more

my family has been coming here since you could still smoke cigarettes inside. the food has gotten better over the years, the margs are tasty as ever. they have a wide range of marg flavored which I love. service is great, i love that they have a seperate location for carry out and clothes. we have some merch that is over 20 years old as this place is a family staple at the beach read more

Love this place. It's on our "list" for every family beach trip. Usually 11-12 of us, and everyone always enjoys their meals. Depending on timing, you could have a wait, but it's worth it! read more

Ordered takeout. Ordered 3 burritos ($70) very tasty and filling. The paper under the burrito got soggy and fell apart. The rice that came with was very good. Will be back again. read more

What a complete trashy dump. Food was terrible except for the nachos. Service was awful. Do yourself a favor and avoid this dump. P.S. the bathrooms are disgusting. read more

Don't bother.... Find something more authentic. We both got the burrito chipotle ‍ chunks of what I could gather to be as boiled chicken, zero flavor and creamed corn on the top. Canned refried beans and pico de gallo for their "salsa" Absolute waste of $65 read more

The food was excellent but the screaming child was not. When we arrived, the boy's parents received their check and paid it. Shortly thereafter, the boy started to scream and after a few minutes of this, his father took their infant daughter out of the restaurant while the mother and the 3 or 4 year old boy stayed. The boy continued to scream at the top of his lungs and walk back and forth on the booth's seat. This went on for almost 30 minutes while the staff members sat 3 tables away watching. When I asked the server if he could do something, he said he couldn't. The father eventually returned and they left. We will not be returning. read more

We've been to Ocean City for years with the family, but this was our first visit to Tequila Mockingbird. Great name by the way - the restaurant also has a store that sells merchandise and I may have to go back to purchase a shirt. Upon arriving, we were told that it'd be a five minute wait, which was accurate. The service was friendly and prompt. Only one basket of chips and salsa are allotted, and there after you are charged which is a bummer. The salsa is authentic and fresh. They do not offer a margarita pitcher option, so my husband and I each had a single house margarita. I would say they were subpar at best. A little too sugary for my taste. My daughter loved her quesadilla, but tbt Mexican rice was the worst I've ever had - it tasted more like a bad rice pilaf. The grilled chicken nachos were tasty and allow enough to share with 1-2 people. read more

Having been to Tequila Mockingbird many times at this location and their other, I must say our most recent visit was very disappointing. I'd like to start by saying their other location is fantastic, however I'm not sure what happened to this one. The house margaritas and waiting staff were extremely friendly. The food was certainly lacking, as was the cleanliness of our table when we sat down. My wife ordered the fajitas which she enjoyed, but the burrito had an off putting taste as did the nachos. We ordered nachos as a starter and everything came out at once. I will say, if they can match the level of service and quality from their newer location, this would easily be another 5 start review. read more

Had another great dinner at Tequila last night. Food never disappoints! Go for the short rib tacos and gotta have some of the Diablo salsa if you're brave enough:-). Service was on point - my margarita was never empty. Its a must for my family when we are in town read more

LOVED checking this spot out! I mean, when I read that they had the largest tequila library on the east coast, how could I NOT go, lol. They have over 300 tequilas and mezcals available, and they serve yum Mexican food? What's not to love! So, here's what we got: ground beef enchiladas ($18.25), really tasty and served with a side of rice and beans! chicken fajitas with a side of guac ($22.99 + extra $3 for the guac). BIG portions, and the fajitas came out sizzling. 10/10 recommend, and you can definitely share because they give you a lot of food El Diablo salsa - if you're big into spicy, give this a try! It's reallllly good but HOT HOT so consider yourself warned, lol. I wanted to get dessert, but we got there kind of late so the kitchen closed if you guys try their tequila funnel fries before I get to go again, please let me know how they are. Service was phenomenal, and the ambiance was fun. My friend and I had an absolute blast eating here and will definitely be back the next time we visit the OC. read more

After a long morning of traveling all we wanted was a good frozen cocktail and this place hit the spot! My mom got a blue dog marg and I had the frozen parrot head marg- they were both tasty. We split queso to start which was a HUGE portion size and very creamy. We also split the Popeyes enchilada with refried beans and the tequila funnel fries. Even splitting everything we still took majority home. The enchiladas were in a black bean sauce. The tequila fries were good but didn't taste any tequila so they were basically just funnel fries but they came with a strawberry dipping sauce that tasted like captain crunch's oops all berries and it surprisingly meshed well with the fries. Our server was also very friendly and attentive. Decor was a little dingy but overall a cool spot to checkout and walking distance from where we stayed. read more

Just had a great lunch at Tequila Mockingbird! The spicy margs were on point and everything we ordered was awesome. We had the queso, beef chimi, fish tacos, and the Atlantis burrito.

Tequila mockingbird has amazing fresh salsa and chips. I picked up food to go and disappointed there is an almost $11 charge for chips and salsa. The beanie burrito was good but the cilantro rice lacked it flavor. The rice use to be so good. This restaurant gets four stars just based on the freshness and taste of salsa. read more

Tequila burrito for her Atlantic burrito for me. Amazing food and service. Great recommendation from some locals. We will be back if we are in town again. read more

So sad this restaurant has gone down hill. Simple things were very poor- Caesar solid had dressing or lettuce that tasted like soap, tacos were not even Luke warm and didn't even come with a sauce and ere very dry, rice and beans were cold. Not sure if new ownership, new chef or all of the above changed. Prices were too high for such mediocre food Will not eat here ever again read more

Tequila Mockingbird is literally some of the worst Mexican food I've ever had lol. I know the east coast isn't known for its Mexican food and especially not ocean city but this was really bad. I had a bean and cheese burrito, literally one of the hardest things to screw up, and it was not good. Even worse were the refried beans - they were AWFUL!!! So incredibly dry and just ugh. And refried beans are one of my favorite foods. The ambiance was fine and service was fine but those refried beans were so bad there's no redemption. read more

The food here was great portion and excellent. Very nice staff. If you are looking for a quiet place to eat not the place. Is a loud place which I like when taking kids and eating with a group after a big day of day drinking. This is a must go for me every year read more

I haven't been here in several years. Used to come all the time prior to having kids. Stopped by the other night and wanted a quick meal. I know it's ocean city and we would pay higher prices but the for the price I expected the food quality to be better. The chicken quesadilla had no seasoning on the chicken. My wife had a taco salad. It was ok. Thought the price was high. My daughter had the tortilla soup. It was very salty. I will say our server was really good and on top of things. She seemed over worked but that's not surprising under these time. Maybe I'll come back in the off season when they have specials but never again in the summer read more

With only two adults and a busy July 4 weekend, sat at the bar and ordered dinner. Bartender was very friendly and quick. Blue margarita was good. Ordered steak fajitas and burrito. It was July 3, so the restaurant was busy, but the food took over an hour to receive after ordering. VERY noisy in bar. Food was good, loved the rice, Will go back but on a slower night. read more

Instant rice, refried beans out of a can, chewy chicken, bowl of diced tomato's for the salsa, melted block of velvet-a for the $10 Queso. I don't mind paying for good food but for this kind of quality with entries being $20 was wild. But, I love the name of the restaurant, our service was great, and the privacy booths are a plus. read more

I went on taco Tuesday later in the evening. The waitress was extremely nice and attentive. I ordered a margarita that was blue (I can't remember it's name). It was REALLY good, but a bit pricey. I'd go back for the drinks. Their salsa is large chunks of tomato and small diced onjons.I'm not a fan of that type of salsa, but that's just a personal preference. I know many others probably like that. I got a $2 chicken taco for taco Tuesday. It was good but nothing spectacular. The chicken seemed to be just grilled and wasn't marinated or have any spices added to it. Again, it was fine but didn't stand out. I got an order of chicken enchiladas. It came with green sauce and that was ok. The enchiladas were a solid B or B+. The rice was typical rice you'd expect at a Mexican place. Overall. Food was good, drinks were excellent. I'd go back. read more

Excellent food. Large portions. Great service. I will sample one of the many margaritas when I am not driving! So many choices!
