    This wasn’t our first visit, but it was our first time having brunch here. The food was delicious! We also enjoyed mimosas and Bloody Mary drinks. They also offer full bar services during brunch. We will be back!

    Tequila Val's is a solid Mexican restaurant. The table side Quacamole was probably the best item we had. If you're looking for true homemade Mex.... this probably isn't the place for you. The food was solid and the drinks we're very good. The restaurant is housed in an old historic building which makes the ambiance very nice.

    Spent the Valentine’s Day. Good vibes and atmosphere, food was a little bland but that is expected as they’re prob serving folks that can’t handle heat. Will be back again for drinks and apps.

    We were there for a birthday and made a reservation staying there for a birthday. I also told the server and she said they will give her a dessert on the house but I was charged for it anyway. She was quite slow w getting drinks and being attentive but she was nice.

    Pretty noisy, even though the restaurant was empty! Table-side quac was the highlight of the meal. Would go again.

    Food and service was just OK, nothing exceptional. Fajitas came out without tortillas while the food cooled, we waited. Traditional margaritas were mostly ice, not very good.
