    Food was delicious. More authentic options than many Mexican restaurants in the area. I was a little disappointed that the almost $6 shrimp taco I ordered only had 3 shrimp and a smattering of cabbage in it. Would have expected more. Tableside guac is well worth it...very generous portion. Lots of yummy Margarita options. Would definitely go back

    Tequila Val's is a fairly new place that replaced The Anvil Club last year. Service for our table of eight was a bit slow in the beginning, but our waiter was attentive and friendly throughout our two hour meal. Everyone enjoyed their food, with a highlights being the steak fajitas and burritos, both well prepared. I thoroughly enjoyed the Carne a la Tampiquena, which was there very flavorful skirt steak. The restaurant was lively on this Saturday night. There is a party room downstairs, and an outdoor area that looks very inviting when the weather turns warmer. We will be back.

    The staff is terrific! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The prices are a little higher than other Mexican Restaurants, but the staff makes it worth it.

    Our first time there. We loved the atmosphere and the music however, our server messed up our bills a couple times and it took him a while to take care of us and was not very attentive.
