Quick friendly service and food was hot and delicious.There was an extensive menu and authentic cuisine.

My first time dining at Tequila's while I was in town. The servers were all helpful and the atmosphere was lovey and fun. The food was just ok for me though. I live in Texas so it might just be a difference in geographical "norms". The Al pastor tacos were very dry and looked to be made from beef fajita meat instead of diced pork. The pico de gallo was fresh, heavy on the onions. I did ask for extra cilantro and lime - my 2 favorite taco toppings. The sopaipillas were cinnamon sugar covered tortilla chips instead of puffed flour tortillas and served with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle on top instead of honey and butter. The enchiladas with rice and beans looked good and had generous amounts of sauce on top. The taco salad is served in a taco shell bowl with a generous serving of meat. I like supporting small businesses, so if you're in town and looking for Mexican fare please stop in and try it out. read more

Tequila’s Authentic Mexican Resturant - two empanadas on a plate - Mexican Near Me - Rising Sun, Indiana

Passing though Rising Sun and decided to give it a try based on reviews. Good choice! Veggie Quesadilla was awesome loaded with tons of veggies. Tacos were excellent. Large Margarita for 2 hit the spot. Chips and salsa provided before you order along with some type of warm bean dip which was tasty. Very clean and friendly!! Check was $35 plus tip!! read more

I read through the reviews and almost all of the negative reviews dealt with service. I've been here a handful of time and never had bad service. Last time they did get my drink order wrong, but other than that I have no complaints about the service. Food is your typical 'authentic' Mexican restaurant... so its good. But to date I haven't had anything unique or overly outstanding to warrant 5 stars. A bonus is you get salsa and dip as opposed to most places where you only get salsa. I can't tell you want the dip was, other than maybe a thin bean type dip... really good either way! read more

Yuck yuck yuck. Salsa gross, chips stale. Beef and chicken terrible. Definitely not "authentic Mexican." Service was not great either :(

All of it. Things were wonderful there was very quin. Everything was clean.The people were very nice.

I would argue this is the best Mexican restaurant around. They definitely have the friendliest employees!

Great food and great service. The margaritas were outstanding as well. Liked the music

The blue margs are so worth it! After you eat, you can walk down and enjoy the river view. Highly recommend!

Great food and service go here about once a week they know my girlfriends order by heart at this point

Took a friend there today for Birthday lunch...restaurant clean, server attentive and food excellent....fair prices and portion...

I have to admit: based on the previous review, I went into this with pretty low expectations. However, we were here for a late lunch and there were not a multitude of options for a non red meat eater like my mom. We sat down to an empty restaurant with three staff members in the back at the bar. Our waitress seated us immediately and went to the back to bring water. We said we needed a minute to look at the menu when she arrived, and decided on an order of their "chunky guacamole" to share, the bean and spinach burrito with a side of rice for her, and the burrito ranchero with red sauce for me. After about 15 minutes, with us craning our necks to try and flag her down, she finally returned to take the order. The guac came out suspiciously fast, and the ugly brown sheen covering the top told us this was NOT fresh guacamole and had probably been sitting uncovered in a fridge for some time. It tasted the way that it looked and we were unable to finish the little dish full of brown-green paste. Our burritos came out about 20 minutes later, which again, was odd in a completely empty restaurant. Hopefully if would mean everything was made fresh to order. My burrito was flat, with a single layer of chicken or steak and the occasional onion; there were no other fillings and really did not look or seem like the burrito advertised on the menu. It was covered in small meatball-like chunks of chorizo and a red sauce so thin it looked like broth. Amongst this mess were huge pieces of canned pineapple. I asked my mom how hers was and she sadly told me there was no spinach in her burrito. There were, however, unexpected canned pineapple pieces not listed on the menu mixed in with the black beans and a few other small veggie pieces, of which she was not a fan. We would have mentioned it to the server, but she stopped by to see "how everything was" when we had just cut into our food and not tried it yet, and by this point, she had disappeared again. We eventually just gave up and ate our food because we were hungry. Then began the waiting game. We chatted for a while, assuming that our waitress was busy in the back. Then we saw a young man walk in and head to the back and sit down with the group of staff members that were sitting at the back bar the entire time. They continued their conversation while we stacked our plates and pointedly put on our coats in order to hopefully signal to the server that we were ready for the bill to be dropped. No dice. Finally we had to resort to going up to stand at the front before one of them took notice and sauntered up. She asked how the food was and my mom mentioned that there was no spinach in her bean and spinach burrito, and also the mystery addition of pineapple. The person just shrugged and began to ring up the bill. No apology, no explanation, nothing. I have worked in the food service industry before and I try very hard to be incredibly friendly and generous with front of the house staff due to that experience, but it took a lot for me to not tell someone off as she turned away from us to laugh at something someone said in the back of the house. We hurried out of the restaurant and spent the rest of the drive remarking on how bad that lunch was and that we should've just chanced the burger place down the street despite her dietary preferences. I would not recommend this place and would go so far as to tell people not to come here. Drive the extra miles and go somewhere else. I'm from a small town like Rising Sun and I love to see local restaurants do well in small towns, but this was a major miss for me. Tl;dr: everything I could grade a restaurant on failed. Subpar and obviously old food, incorrect orders, absent waitstaff, poor customer service... I won't be back. read more

Realty a mixed review. The food was excellent & they have an amazing vegetarian burrito. Now my server was very interesting. He served my food & was really short with me. So short I received my bill right after my food was delivered. Literally said 5 words to me. I asked for something additional & he took my bill back & acted as if I put him out. He did bring me the item I order though. I was checking his attitude off as if he was having a bad day. He never came back to my table & after 15 min I just went to the cashier to see if he could get my bill. He grabbed my ticket & rang it up. I tipped over 35%, just to hope I would make my servers day a little better. Then I asked the cashier where the bathroom was. He pointed me to the facility & I went to the restroom. As I was at the urinal my waiter came in & told me I didn't pay for that additional item that he did not add to my bill. He was yelling at me! I told him politely can he wait until I finish & wash my hands? I told him I would take care of it as soon as I finished. He acted like he distrusted me. I basically had to tell him to get out to let me finish (ackward). I walked out & the waiter wasn't there. I went back to the cashier to pay & he must have heard what just went on. He told me not to worry about it and apologized. So really a mixed review, because the food & cashier was great. The older gentleman that waited on me should never serve tables & keep him away from the public. read more

Have spent lots of money with this establishment on many occasions with friends and family but our last visit on July 2, 2021 will be our last. The food was good, no complaints there but our server was so rude and unfriendly and we were the only 4 people there. Apparently you don't need or want our business, or our many friends who spend money here. No thanks!! read more
