    A friend born and raised in Lakeville swears by Theresa's for the classic chips-and-salsa experience you don't often get in the Cities, so on a recent visit we stopped in. We were feeling snacky so opted for the complimentary chips and salsa for the table, plus the large guac and large queso and some margs. I love their salsa - so fresh and delicious! I wish the chops were a bit more salty but they were also warm and fresh. The guac was also fresh and the queso was exactly what we'd hoped for - creamy deliciousness. We had great service - the staff are definitely jokesters with a good sense of humor. The peach margarita was massive and seemed a bit pricey, but when we took a sip we knew why: that thing was boozy! Reasonably priced, good service, and the classic flavors you love. Can't speak to the entrees but would definitely return if back in the area!

    Pick two (was suppose to be supreme but was not brought out that way)

    As a adult now, I have grown up going to this Teresa's location! Tonight's specific occasion was a mother daughter date! We walked in and like always, got seated quickly. The customer service is and has always been great! Ordering was quick with follow up as requested and the fastest food delivery ever upon ordering! I want to continue with the most amazing reviews but unfortunately the food itself was not quite as great. I ordered the pick two (that comes with rice and beans), specifying a Chili Relleno and a Chile con Queso. It was brought super quick but upon receiving it, the plate was hot but the food was just barely warm. My Chile con Queso tortilla was so soggy I could not find it under the toppings. And unfortunately my Chili Relleno was so soggy that upon cutting it, some cheese came out but quickly stopped as it was not thoroughly heated. It was not crispy in the slightest and instead was a soggy, cold, wet texture. The rice and beans were warm, their normal, enjoyable way. Also, the server took our order and one of us asked for a supreme for our pick two, it was not brought out that way but we just decided to not say anything. The service from the waiters was great, my water being filled almost immediately upon being finished. And the waitress helped us find the app we wanted and brought it within two minutes. Unfortunately our entrees were not so great which brings us to wonder if we would come back for food, maybe an app and a drink but who knows. Service great, food not so great. Won't give up but also not so pleased.

    Pastor Especial - marinated pork with pineapple , beans, rice. served with tortillas. very good!

    EXCELLENT!! We had been driving all around town looking for a good mexican restaurant, tried 4 or 5 places before finding Teresa's. And we are hooked, we will absolutely be back!! The building inside is really nice, fancier than your usual mexican restaurant, i loved it. Waitress was very nice, very happy to be there. Chips and salsa were great, perfect chips, not too thick , not too thin. Salsa was really good, tiny bit of spice, has good flavor, unlike some other places it taste like plain tomato sauce. My husband ordered the Pastor Especial, marinated pork with pineapple, served with tortillas. it was very good! he wanted to try something new and he was not dissapointed, would get it again! I ordered the Fiesta Burrito, its huge, you could easily share it with someone, but it was so good you might not want to. Carnitas inside with rice n beans, cheese sauce on top, and i had them toss some salsa verde on top with the cheese, highly recommend this! salsa verde with carnitas is a must. definitely give this place a try! you wont be disappointed.

    Teresa's was the first restaurant I tried when moving to Lakeville. The food has always been good, extremely friendly servers and a fun vibe!!

    Flan best for me no toppings. Next time.

    Recently visited here again at my son's request. "They have the best fried ice cream", he said. First of all delighted a mature man seated us in his section with high-back booths. This elder treated us with kindness and care as I requested "a step ladder" to get into my seat. (Laughing). Oh yah, the beginning of a great dining experience. Thanks to my sweet son who loves to visit here. The wait staff, drinks, dinner, dessert all outstanding and delicious. At least one of us had the Margarita Chicken a delightful dinner with tastes and appearance on point. The waiter made our evening the best visit ever. Gracias Amigos Mama Mae

    Kids meal. Quesadilla, rice, and beans.

    Eh. It's not great, but affordable and curbs the craving for Mexican food. We went on a Tuesday with a large group and were able to get seated right away. The waiter came by eventually and we were able to get our drinks ordered, but it was a long time until we saw him again. The chips and salsa were stale and salsa bland. The queso we ordered to share as a table was good, but we had to ask for fresh chips that ended up being much better. For my meal, I got the street tacos. You get to pick 3 meats for your tacos and it comes with rice and beans. I got Al Pastor, Carnitas, and Carne Asada. The carnitas was by far the best. It was flavorful and delicious. The Al Pastor was really fatty and had a weird aftertaste. The carne asada was fine. Everyone else at the table was just "meh" with their food too. The margaritas were like pretty bad. The lime flavor was really artificial tasting and the color was similar to a highlighter. Definitely no real lime juice in those. Pros: kid friendly, big menu, good queso. Cons: slow service, hit or miss food, bad margs.

    We thought 'let's try something in a small town "- yelp reviews looked decent and it seemed small…read moretown owned. My quintessential breakfast item is eggs Benedict and cappuccino- this is how I begin my evaluation of good food. So it was a toss up between The Better Half and the Lakeville Brewing Co which share the same parking lot. AI told me to go to Lakeville Brewing for the Benedict if I expect it to be done right. However it said The Better half will have way better cappuccino. Entryway into The Better Half was nice . The ambiance reminded me of High Hat on Selby on Cathedral Hill in St Paul. However the warmth wasn't there at The Better Half. The big bar had a few people sitting there, bartender looked at us but didn't say anything. No welcome - no smile nothing. No host at the front door- there was only a sign saying "please wait to be seated". We stood there for about two minutes until someone came from the back to seat us. Our server was a different person, she seemed warm and personable. They should put her in charge as hostess. First impressions are everything. Also train the bartender to be talkative, that's usually why people go to bars- they know at least the bartender will be friendly. Cappuccino was decent and good sized, no complaints there. The Benedicts were executed poorly. The eggs were hard boiled on both dishes. Hollandaise was thick, tasteless and slopped all over the plate. It didn't look appetizing - we had to send it back. With that said the ham was a good thick slice and the potatoes were fried up well. But there was nothing special about the potatoes. Due to poor execution of the eggs Benedict and hollandaise, coupled with the stoic bartender who was unwelcoming- I'd have to give this place a 1.5 star. It's unfortunate since I want to cheer for the small town restaurants. There's so much they could offer in personal touch and experience. Unfortunately this experience left us feeling like "if this is the better half, then I don't want meet the other half." Management needs to step up their game, it's not fair to the workers to let guests start off with a poor experience and then have the food quality continue to degrade the experience. The server never gets a chance to earn a great tip because the bartender, lack of host greeting and poor execution of food overshadows the server who was trying her best. We tipped her well anyway but this is why the lengthy review.. For a breakfast place you gotta get your eggs right. That's 101 cooking.

The cheesy hashbrowns has an interesting taste to me. Neither my mom nor I cared for them. We would recommend and we will be back. Our server was amazing and very attentive.

Had us seated quickly and got drinks out pretty quickly. During this dinner I drank a Cherry Manhattan and ate Cajun Bourbon pasta. I typically love a Manhattan but I wasn't impressed with this Cherry Manhattan. It seemed like it was pure whisky and a drop of sweet Vermouth. The ratio of the cocktail was definitely all wrong. Good thing I like straight whiskey I guess. The Cajun Bourbon pasta was good, but I wouldn't venture to say great. It was overly creamy and just didn't pack any spice that you'd expect to be associated with Cajun. Overall it just lacked a richness in flavor. I would still recommend this spot despite food and drink being average. Barley and Vine had a beautiful location with some magnificent wood working that is a feast for the eyes. Additionally they bring in live music on Saturdays so that adds some enjoyment if you appreciate loud live music. 4/5 due to these many factors mentioned.

We were seated right away upon arrival and service was good and we were well taken care of the whole time. Starting from apps, we ordered the duck bacon wontons, and the brisket poutine. The duck bacon wontons were almost empanada size and were truly tasty. The pomegranate sriracha dipping sauce was the icing on the cake here as it was so sweet and rich and flavorful. The brisket poutine was pretty solid as well. There were definitely some beautiful cheese pulls involved when pullling apart the fry's. I wouldn't have minded a little more gravy, but still this dish was still pretty good. For my beverage I had the You're my boy blue beverage which is a bourbon, agave, blueberry and lemonade drink. It was tasty and the blueberry really stood out. Lastly, for the entree I had the anytime monte which is their take on a Monte Cristo sandwich. I love this thing wit a passion. Delicious French toast bread with fried ham and bacon and cheese inside. I then slathered it in the jalapeño strawberry jam which makes this sandwich complete. I asked for the sandwich with Fries and let me tell you, they know what they're doing with potatoes. Unbelievably crispy, double battered double fried fry's. So good! I think that this restaurant has wonderful staff, wonderful food, and the one thing it's maybe missing is the interior design is a bit dreary. It's just red everywhere, lots of windows and pretty plain furniture. I think if they can add some flare to the design it would really elevate the dining experience. Still, I was very happy with my time here hence a 5/5
