Reviews for Tequila's Mexican Bar & Grill in East Peoria, IL

Best chips and salsa I've ever had. Also the service was great and the food came right away.

Went in Monday 10-3 for dinner. Our family waited for over 15 mi utes for someone to seat us. There were 8 tables with customers... in them. The staff walked by us and did not acknowledge us at all. Finally a guy who was playing with his phone the entire timewe were standing there walked over and asked us how many we had. He seated us and then the wait was on. Again wait staff walkedby and no one was stopping to take our order or bring us any drinks after sitting there for 15 minutes. Finally we had enoughand walked out. As we did I spoke to someone to tell them why we were leaving and the guys come t to me was "oh really" and juststared at me. I guess if they don't value is as a customer, I won't be back in. Worse dining experience in awhile. Read more

We have come twice trying to get Sopapillas. The first time we were told "the guy" that makes them was not there. The second... time, tonight, my husband wanted to come for our anniversary. We called to see if they had "the guy" to make them and was toldyes. We said we would come about 6. They said yes they would have them. Low and behold, we ordered them and couldn't get them.They need 4 people in the kitchen to make Sopapillas (what?) And only had 3? We drove 40 mins in rush hour to get this for ouranniversary because we were told they had them. So disappointed and nobody seemed to care. Edited to add: the "manager" told myhusband that they could make them, that the kitchen didn't even want to, so could my husband slide him two bucks? Just prettyshady and makes me concerned about what is happening in the kitchen. Read more

Food was ok, service was sporadic

Our server was amazing and the food was good until we found hair in our food ????

Food is amazing and the staff is great! Their new dip Carne Con Queso is absolutely amazing! Only down side is the bench seats... are pretty worn down and not very comfortable. Read more

Very busy tonight for Mothers Day and the food is still very good, excellent fresh salsa, Maria, a mom with 4 kids had to work... today and her husband stayed home to make dinner for their children. She waited on me at the bar and provided great servicewhile working the floor herself. Request maria for great service, good conversation and for her support....i tipped her $100 for supporting the hard working Moms and for her sacrificing her special to help others and me. Read more

The food here was great! I ordered the steak burrito and a couple soft tacos on the side. The server was good, quick to come... back and refill our drinks. The food came out quickly and it was hot. They?ve got free queso for your chips after 3p but that?sonly good if you pay cash, will not work if you?re paying with credit/debit card. Serving sizes are big, flavor is good, I woulddefinitely recommend Tequilas! Read more
