Cool Art
Andrei P.

Late dinner to-go and got the Taquitos combo with beans and rice for less than $10 and it was good as I paired it with cerveza. Service was fast when I called in the order and was out of there before they closed at 9:30 PM. There are lot of cool artwork of Mexican women and this place looks like a chill spot for Happy Hour. One of these days I will definitely go for a Michelada with Modelo (Mexican drink with Clamato and Tomato Juice)

BOGO sangria, street tacos, super burrito
Jaima M.

Food was super, hot when served and spices just perfect. Sangria is awesome and homemade!! Will go again!

Chips & salsa.
Linda A.

We hadn't been here in a good while and decided to try it again. We were promptly greeted and seated. We had two servers. One brought the menus, chips & salsa, drinks and took our order. The other brought our food. The burrito was excellent and a very great size. The American Street tacos were great in chicken, but unfortunately the carne asada wasn't. The steak tasted off and it was super tough. Our server never brought the guacamole, but it wasn't on the bill either. The decor is Mexican, but a little toned down from some. There are also TVs if you're interested in a game.

Enchilada Supreme

We had a group of 10 and our server was really attentive and the service was stellar. Food was pretty amazing too. The bathrooms were nice and clean. The owner came out and checked on us and we told him how pleased we have been with everything. We will definitely return.

Tres leches
Michelle D.

I met up for an alumni chapter meeting at Tequila's Mexican restaurant. This was my first time. I enjoy the chips and salsa as well as the queso my friend ordered while we waited for dinner. Which did take a while to come out. I ordered two specialty tacos, shrimp with avocado and chicken and mushroom. Both were yummy! But my favorite was the shrimp with avocado, so much flavor! I also ordered the tres leches which was okay. I probably wouldn't order it again. When I checked in on Yelp I was offered a free tequila shot. I asked the server about it and he said he would get back to me. The manager explained they didn't offer/make the premade batch of tequila shots until the weekend. But he came to the table and offered all of us a tequila shot which he did with us. Very nice touch! I'll be back to explore more of the menu!

3 beef burrito combo with rice and beans. (Not pictured... tortilla chips and salsa)
Paul R.

Ordered on 4/6/26 for the first time delivery. The taco combo with rice and beans. It showed up and it was amazing! Tacos were full of meat and not just lettuce. Decided to order again. Ordered the same combo but messed up and ordered the burritos. Amazing! Bib portions of rice and beans, again the burritos were full of meat and not fillers. Took me a year and a half to find my Mexican spot!

Had a wonderful meal at Tequila's! Service was excellent, food was amazing, & the ambience was great! The wine pouter was probably about 9oz & my husband loved his margaritas! We highly recommend Tequila's Mexican!

Chiles Rellenos
Sam T.

We decided to give this place another try after hearing about the changes, and I'm glad we did. First off, everyone was friendly and attentive - especially our wonderful server. The chips were hot and fresh, and the salsa was good. We were also happy that a classic queso blanco was back on the menu and enjoyed it. Our entrees were huge! My spouse thought the carne asada he ordered was really good and actually ate most of the steak as we were there, although it could have easily been split into two servings, I think. And I liked my chiles rellenos! It tasted fresh and not soggy at all, which I've encountered elsewhere). We both liked our drinks, too. My husband enjoyed the mojito so much that he ordered two. I loved my aguachile margarita and appreciated that it had a bit of a spicy kick to it. It was a generous serving, too. The only criticism I have is that the booths are super squished -- neither my husband nor I had much breathing room. I'd request a table with a chair next time and hope that maybe they take one booth out to make things more comfortable along the side of the restaurant. It was pricey -- for three alcoholic drinks, two entrées, and one queso, the total came to $95 before tax. So, this won't be my "cheap and filling" spot, but it will be a place I return to.

This is the new Arroz Con Pollo carrots are raw

At the point where I have to complain i don't want to come back. The food has changed so much this use to be one of my favorite spots local in Jacksonville. The prices do not match up anymore. Update server made it better and said she would talk to owners

Margarita with salt
Sylvia W.

Lunch time and happy hour. It was not crowded. We were immediately seated and were given menus to select our drinks. They have $3, $5 and $7 happy hour drinks. I got the large margarita. My tacos were hot and delicious. The lettuce and tomatoes were fresh. They were so delicious no sauce was needed. The restroom was nice and clean. It looks like a bathroom at someone home. Home decor was very inviting.

Jim M.

Amazing food and service is always stellar! It's a must for the best Mexican in Jax! Juan (the manager) is on point, this is the best food and drinks in Jax. Ya gotta try this it.

I went to Whiskey Cake for a party which was in a nice size private room. Our server Christina was…read morefabulous! There were roughly 15 people at the party and she kept the food and drinks coming all night with a friendly smile. I started with the guava gimlet made with Wheatley Vodka, guava, pineapple, simple and lime. It was sweet and refreshing. We were served a few appetizers including creamy artichoke dip served with homemade chips which were tasty. My friend and I ordered the charcuterie board which hit the spot! You could top the meat cheeses and sauces on to either homemade crackers or French bread. I highly recommend the board if you are looking for something light.

Alright Jacksonville, Whiskey Cake did NOT disappoint!…read more First things first, if you're visiting on a weekend, MAKE A RESERVATION! This place gets busy! Luckily, we were waiting for someone in our party, so the wait wasn't too bad. Now the FOOD? Absolutely AMAZING! Everything from the chicken and waffles to the sandwiches, breakfast plates, and sweet treats was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The drinks were refreshing, service was excellent, and even the bathrooms were spotless! The restaurant itself has a really cool, rustic atmosphere. My only two minor complaints were the seating and noise. If your party is larger than 5-6 people, you may end up sharing a high-top table with another group, separated by a small divider. We also got seated toward the back near a group that was EXTREMELY loud. Listen, I'm all for having a good time, but WHEW, they were enjoying themselves enough for everybody! Outside of those two things, I really enjoyed the experience! Great food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Those minor seating issues are the only reason I'm giving it a 4.5 instead of a perfect 5. We'll absolutely be back because brunch was fantastic, but now I need to see what that DINNER menu is talking about! Shoutout to our amazing server Stephanie as well, oh guys this place takes tap to pay !!
