    Food was cold. Seemed like it was cooked in advance and then reheated. I ordered calamari and chicharon sliders. The calamari was already soggy when it came out. No crunch at all, and was cold. The Chicharon was cold and the bread underneath was already soggy all the way through and the bread used was a baguette. Baguettes take a longgggg time to get mushy like that and the chicharon wasn’t even hot. The presentation of the food was nice but it’s like a chef made it early in the day in case someone ordered it later and then left for the rest of the day. The drinks were good (only thing good there) and the service was decent. The first waitress had a bit of an attitude when we asked questions about the menu but I think she left and was relieved by another waitress who was super super nice. Ambiance was good though. If u come here, only come for drinks.

    This was the first time that anyone in our dinner party had ever frequented Tequila Escape. We were pleasantly surprised and the experience continued to get better as the evening progressed! Ambiance, cocktails, culinary experience, music, and dancing were highly rated by all. We will definitely be back!

    We really enjoyed this place. Tacos were tasty and fresh, and drinks made well. Mushroom blend was an exciting vegetarian option. Tuna tacos could use less sauce however. Service was polite and fast. Overall, a great place to enjoy Mexican food.

    Pros: Food quality and taste, atmosphere Cons: Expensive menu, very nice but somewhat inexperienced waiter (check error plus needed to hunt him down more than once). Three very rocky tables, had to move to a larger one which was then fine (how could they not know, all were very rocky not just a little bit). Had shrimp fajitas which were good, but for $31 were much more expensive than other restaurants that serve similar plus give you much more. These fajitas were only the shrimp, onions, green peppers, tortillas, salsa that was very garlicky, and sour cream. That’s it, no guacamole, no beans, no lettuce or tomato, etc. that most other restaurants provide for under $30. I didn’t get any tortilla chips and salsa but saw that another table did, not sure if they ordered them or if my waiter just forgot to offer them to me. The other table had a different waiter who seemed much more on top of things. I would be willing to try again if prices there were lower, but not at these prices.

    Under staffed, and over all poor food. We had table of 14 people on a slow night. I think they had 3 people total working the bar & entire restaurant. Multiple steaks were over cooked, and no one really was raving about any of the other dishes. This was a mistake going here, this was a big bill and we expected more. Our waitress was very good but she was working by herself, this is no reflection on her.
