“ Really good food and great Service. Server maria* Authentic Mexican and Ecuadorian food highly recommend ”
“ The best authentic Mexican restaurant in the Minneapolis area! The food is delicious, portions are hearty and the prices can't be beaten. Horchata is a sweet drink (n.a.) to start with. Try the tostocarnitas for an appetizer. Chaulafan is my favorite entree, picture attached for reference. The building is decorated well and creates a welcoming energy. The staff are incredible, very kind and professional. Only 5 miles from downtown Minneapolis. Parking lot attached, free of charge. 10/10 recommend ”
“ Great food for decent prices! Margarita was awesome and super tequila-e (yep I just made that word up). I had the steak tacos and my hubby had a ghost pepper burrito. Would definitely eat here again to try more of the menu. Chips and salsa were great, they offered a mild and a hot salsa. Service was soooo friendly! Patio was great on a sunny August afternoon. ”
“ Best spicy sauce ever great food, attentive and friendly staff. ”

“ Happy hour deals are awesome. Daily deals also make it worth while any day of the week. Staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. ”
“ Had lunch at El Tequila Mexican Grill. My wife and I shared the steak fajitas and they were fantastic. The free chips and salsa was a nice touch and the habenero hot sauce was so good I wanted to buy a bottle. Great flavors and huge portions. The service was fast and friendly and I felt extremely welcomed. Good happy hour and daily deals. My only complaint was the margaritas were a little sweet and came from a machine, but they were still strong. Excited to go back and try more of their menu. ”
“ My favorite place to go for margaritas on Thursdays! The food is consistently good and so is the service. My favorite is the Latin fried rice! ”
