    First timers. We were a party of 8. Alex our server was excellent. Very upbeat, personable and attentive. Table side guacamole was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their selection. Spicy margaritas were delish. Plenty of seating. Big change to the Anvil Club decor - which we expected. Only recommendation I would make is to dim the overall lighting. It was a little too bright and sterile. We look forward to returning.

    I really enjoyed our meal at Tequila Val's. I feel the ingredients are very fresh in their entrees, sauces and especially the tableside quac, is awesome! We went for an early dinner on Friday at 430pm, and we were seated right next to another filled table. I wish they would have spread us out and left an empty table in between. A very large group came in for Friday Happy Hour after work, who were quite loud at the bar area. Had we been seated farther from the bar, may have been better for our table conversation, as we would not have had to compete with others conversation. Overall our experience was very enjoyable and we will be back.

    The acoustics need some attention, very difficult for conversation.
