| - This place is truly hit or miss. On some occasions I've had excellent service and food, and on others I've had the complete opposite. When it's good, it's really good. We've had excellent wait staff in the past, but I've come to find that it truly depends on who you get as your server. While one waiter might be attentive and quick paced, another might all but ignore you. I went this past weekend and the latter was unfortunately my experience. I do believe the waiter was busy (although, to be fair, the restaurant certainly wasn't overwhelmed with guests at this point), but it took him 15 minutes to take our drink order - we almost got up and left. From there, there was an extended period of time in between requests and his checking on us. We would go without refills and requests (i.e. we didn't have tortillas for our fajitas) for several minutes. When he was attentive, he was kind though.
As for food, this is also hit or miss. I routinely get the chicken fajitas and I swear it depends on who's cooking that night as to whether or not they're going to be good. I've had them before where they are excellent (which is probably why I continue to order them); they are hot and fresh and flavored so well. I've also had them before where they were cold and over cooked and overall disappointing.
Last thing I'll say, be prepared to wait FOREVER for to go orders. I ordered before I left the house and even gave them an extra few minutes on top of when they said it would be ready. When I arrived, it was a solid 20 MINUTES before someone would go grab it for me. This is partially because you have to pick it up from the bar and that person is usually also making drinks....so you're just standing there....waiting. They don't prioritize their to-go customers at all. Two other people were waiting with me and someone finally said, "before you do anything else, can you please go grab our food, we've been waiting a really long time." That was fairly frustrating.
Nonetheless, I will continue to visit Tequila's because more often than not we leave pleased. It's good food for cheap.
