Tequilas Mexican in Lincoln

Hina was a lovely host, very understanding of our wishes and very very attentive. Top place

Great food and great staff. Very enjoyable. Milana served me a delicious burrito and it ripped. Cheers champions!

Really impressed with the gluten free options ☺️

Definitely will be back again - great food and intimate space. Well looked after throughout

Popped in for a quick meal about 9pm on a Saturday. Only a few people in. Food was ok, not amazing but tasty enough. Good service. Being expected to pay an extra £2 for some extra sour cream wasn’t ideal.

Looked where to go to for evening meal while at guest house in Lincoln. Tequilas came up, different, not a chain, interesting menu. We were very happy with our choice of this restaurant and would confidently go back if in the area again.

Lovely food. Staff very attentive. Recommended.

Great food, much improved from last visit.

Service struggled a little tonight when taking orders etc. but is usually much better. Food was amazing as always and served quickly. Good value for money

Food excellent Service excellent Definitely looking forward to returning 👍🏻👍🏻😁😁😁

We had walked past Tequilas a few times but never when it was open, so when we decided to go out for dinner tonight we thought we'd give it a go, and we were not disappointed. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the food surpassed our expectations. We tried some of the Mexican Tapas as starters and I could happily have eaten a full bowl of the chickpea and chorizo salad, for my partner it was the Mexican goulash that stood out. The mains were delicious and very filling, and I could hear my fajitas sizzling from across the restaurant as they brought them out. We will definitely be going back.

The food was quite average. When my meal came out it was very small, and the staff seemed confused about dietary restrictions and what food was on the menu.

Great food and good value for money…would recommend

Diabolical service. Watched people follow us and the so called person running the show handed a menu to a lady still taking her coat off. Our party ordered 2 bottles of coke and that was it no glass no ice. Absolutely no idea. Don't eat here.

Great service. Great food. Will use again p

Very enjoyable evening. Thank you.

Really tasty enchiladas, good service too.

Delicious food with massive portions and fabulous service!

Excellent food and service, definitely recommend

Always good food one of my favourite places to eat

Great service our favourite place for some sharing food

Always stop by when I'm in Lincoln

Came for dinner tonight and was massively let down. Food came out before drinks and was barely more than warm, drinks were then delivered much later but were wrong, and because they can only make 1 cocktail at a time we’d finished eating (what we could stomach) before the right cocktails and table water were delivered. Waitress delivering food asked us to tell her which was enchiladas and which was chilli. When we asked for the bill, we were promptly asked how much we’d like to tip, which by this point was a firm nothing. Has the potential to be a nice place if it changes how it does pretty much everything.

Favourite spot in Lincoln, incredible food- always. Friendly and attentive staff, a must visit.

Food delicious as always, great service from Rebecca. Our favourite spot.

First time here and it was fabulous, we will definitely come again.

Very disappointed that restaurants like this make people think that it’s a “authentic Mexican food” 🫣🫣🫣🫣 as a Mexican I feel offended!!! There is non dish that it’s actually Mexican and the taste no even good, the service was awful!!! When we arrived the people in there were sat at a table on their phones and they look at us like …. Can I help you? Not very welcoming. Very very slow service and we was the first table and it wasn’t busy at all. Not sure how tapas it’s any close to Mexican food though???

Lovely evening, really great food, thank you

Disappointed with both the food and service. Think will be a while till I return.

Great food and lovely friendly staff

I work away in lincoln often and this place is a great Mexican for a meal out.

I'm writing what I feel is a fair review. Fajitas are tasty but sauce pots hardy bigger than a 50p... Lack of sauces.... Tortilla wrap 3 x small... Refried beans microwaved and very dry so they bought another out. Fries were amazing! Currently sat waiting for a receipt though for over 20 minutes and there are 2 couples here and me...quiet night. Service friendly but not trained well. Maybe new.

They had a new waitress on, so we didn't really get what we ordered but what we got was very good. Reasonably priced, chill atmosphere, empty on a Friday night?

Busy. Service a bit rushed. Food was ok

Waitress didn't have much info about menu or drinks

Went with a party of 8 today. Took quite a long time for our drinks to make it to the table, they were out of strawberry syrup for a cocktail, and instead offered a 14 year old a margarita as a replacement. Appetizers arrived with the meal, 3 people didn't get what they ordered. Food was edible, and that's the best thing I have to say about it. Mexican food should not taste or smell of yellow curry. Burrito was soggy. Nachos had a thin tomato sauce and some microwave melted cheese on them, frankly it was disgusting and no one ate that. No offer of another drink for anyone. The service was piss poor. The food was one step up from boot camp chow hall. We asked for a manager and there was not one available, on a Saturday. This place should be ashamed of their business. Honestly taco bell is more authentic and tastes better. Save your time and money.

Good food. Great service. Loved the fried ice cream

Our favourite restaurant. Perfect as always

Food was very good and tasty, came quick enough and was family inexpensive at about 20 pounds per person with a drink. Servers where kind and nice tho did take a while to notice we where finished, tho we where tucked away in a corner so I cant blame them too much. Was a bit noisy but overall the atmosphere is nice.

Amazing food and great service. Worth while finding.

Had a wonderful meal lovely food and great atmosphere as always! We were served by Syed and Erin they were amazing! Will definitely be back soon!

Colourful, clean and authentic. Great service from the waiter. The food was amazing, we had starters and mains, I had a prawn salad, I can honestly say it was the best salad I've ever had, totally amazing tastes and giant prawns. The only thing that I would change would be the music in the background; I would have preferred more relaxing Mexican music. Overall, a lovely experience.

Lovely meal with great service. Thank you!!!

Only walked passed. Maybe one day

Fantastic service this evening, Erin and Saeid were great all evening. Cannot recommend Tequilas enough!

Saied and Erin were very quick on service and food was great.

Excellent food and great service.

Brilliant - we rocked up pretty late but the staff were lovely and the food was amazing. Thank you!!

Enjoyed eating here as it offered good service and great food. Chimichanga was very good.

Always good food and atmosphere

terrible. no nachos, when we complained we were told it's ok you can just eat the dips with a knife and fork. just a joke, will order from tortilla next time, never again, tax dodgers as well.

Had some really good food with attentive staff. Good vegetarian options and the atmosphere was lively. Really enjoyed our meal!

Excellent service, with the right level of attention.

Consistently great food and staff work tirelessly to look after you. Amazing restaurant

A fantastic evening at Tequilas as always. Excellent food, service and quality. We come regularly and we will continue to!

Great tasting mex tex/mex food which were filling and well portioned. It would be nice if there were some hot sauce options available on the tables so you can mix up the spice a bit. The service was good and efficient, we visited on a quiet Sunday night so can't comment for busy times. My only complaint is that I felt the music was quite loud and not really appropriate for the restaurant. Also, the opening hours at the front lists Saturday twice, insteas of Saturday & Sunday.

lovely food, brilliant service, highly recommend

Decent guacamole, salsa and hot sauce. Tasty fajitas and tacos. Lovely staff. We enjoyed our meal

Came for a date night, lovely chilled atmosphere, great quick service, lots of options.

Lovely meal and atmosphere. Great place to celebrate. Many thanks!

Great place to eat, lovely staff, amazing food, regular customers, thank you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really nice food with a kind waitress.

Amazing service; guy with brown hair, great service late night

Great little Mexican, I visited there sat 14th Jan 2024 , starts and mains lovley and adiquate portions but I was very disappointed on the size of the desserts !!! £6.90 For a sticky toffee pudding that didn't come with anything else ie ice cream ect , the size if it was ridiculous it measured approx 1 inch square 1.5 inch !!! On a large plate , this is a total rip off and will never have a sweet there again !!

We were there on a bit of a quiet night but loved it

Amazing food, great service. Atmosphere was authentic and such a great range of food on offer.

The food was gorgeous tasted so fresh well definitely be coming back

Just first class, food was amazing in a cute setting, service was excellent, will be returning

Good quality food and service. Lovely Mojito!

Really nice food and atmosphere. Will definitely come back again when we are in Lincoln. Calamari starter was some of the best I have ever had. Taco’s were superb and the chilli con carne was excellent according to my wife. Well worth the walk up steep hill.

Delicious food, quick service and friendly staff. Thanks!

Fantastic food and great atmosphere, can't recommend enough

Where to start, I should have known we was trouble when we started with nachos for my little one and some were burnt, salsa was from a jar/packet and the guacamole was bland, wife’s nachos which were labelled as “for people with big appetites” was actually smaller than my child’s, literally 4 nachos around the bowl and the rest was just the refried beans, burger was really nice but this is a mexican restaurant, so when my little one had tacos they were so soggy and bland to where she couldn’t eat them, no salt or cheese etc. The wifes chicken fajita was the exact same, super soggy, bland and flavourless. It’s not like they were super busy either as an excuse as the place was only half full. The bill came at the end and it’s the highest amount I’ve ever paid for food in lincoln for literally the worst food I’ve had in lincoln, don’t like to leave bad reviews but I’m not quite sure how they can have repeat custom and be going for so many years when genuinely old El Paso kits are more flavoured then here. Not good.

Had such a lovely meal for my sons birthday. Food was great, with a variety of choice. And the staff were very helpful and welcoming!

Absolutely shocking, we planned to go travelling 25 minutes to get there looking forward to a meal to find out they are not open even when it says they’re open on their opening times. Rung the place up and they said they were open when all the lights were off and we were stood outside the place. Absolutely useless. Don’t bother

Had really good service at tequilas, our server Erin did a great job

Had a lovely meal here celebrating my wife's 50th bithday. The food was excellent and so was the service. We found the music unnecessarily loud which rather spoiled the experience for us. Nevertheless would go again for the food!

Disappointed with the chicken in this order, way below the usual standard

Bland food that lacked Mexican flavours. Service was horrible. I stood for 5 mins without being spoken to, although the staff gave me a number of looks. I had to go to the kitchen to ask for a table. It's clear to see why this place is almost always empty.

Went for hubbies birthday on Tuesday. Great food service.

Over priced for the portion size, £3.50 for an extremely pathetic portion of cheap over cooked fries bland potatoes will not waste my money again

Lovely food and pleasant staff cosy place in a lovely part of the city

The staff was amazing, so kind and helpful. The food was delicious absolutely yummy... I would definitely go again soon. The atmosphere very cozy , especially on the second floor.

Food was not very tasty. Quite bland and overpriced for the quality and portion size. Could have been better. Not good quality

Waited for mains 35 minutes. Some lovely, some mediocre.

A fantastic place to grab a quick bite and have a few drinks. The chicken nachos are tasty and not too spicy. The Old Fashioned was perfect and the meu includes several margarita options. Staff are friendly and prompt without being pushy. For the American tourists, note that a service charge is included with the bill, so there is no need to add an extra tip unless you really want to. If that is the case, I recommend leaving cash.

Disappointed. So we had an early evening meal here on Saturday 19th August 2023. Shown to the table and browsed the menu and ordered Guacamole , Nacho con salsa, Onion rings, Pork belly and Jalapeño queso from the tapas menu, and a vegetable fajita from the mains. Service was nice, with an attentive server. Meals all arrived after a little wait and initially I was looking forward to the food, which was nicely presented. Upon eating I was becoming disappointed with the food quality. The onion rings were not hand cut and were very likely to be frozen and just cooked in a frier. Same goes for the jalapeño queso (stuffed jalapeños) which I am also sure were also frozen. Guacamole was okay, but had a lot better, and the pork belly was supposed to be cubes, but was flat sliced pork with some sauce on top, and I was slightly disappointed with it. Nachos were ok, but had a lot better elsewhere. Fajitas were average, little bland, and we had to order more wraps as there was not enough. This was not an issue though. When I got the check, I spoke to the server about the onion rings and my disappointment with them and he was slighly embarrassed and said ‘I am sorry, kitchen is very busy’ (to do ‘hand cut’ ones) or something like that. Such a shame if the kitchen is too busy to cook nice fresh food. If you want good, fresh food (and tapas) then Ole Ole is the place to go to.

3 of us had a great time. It took a while for the food to arrive, so do consider heading over here early and spending time talking and chatting until your order arrives. Great atmosphere, lots of laughter, fun vibes, pretty happening place

Nice food but the service was very slow seeing that we were the only ones there. Most of the time. We had finished the dips when we were asked if we was ready for the mains. So we then had to wait for them to be cooked ect

We had a really lovely meal here. We ordered the veggie Burrito and pulled pork sandwich. Veggie nachos and Guacamole Service was spot on and the food was served hot and tasty. Food is so often served Luke warm but this was perfect!

Pre-booked table, pleasant staff, good range of meals and drinks. IF you have mobility issues the toilets are upstairs. We were okay, so I don't know if there are any alternative facilities. £140 for four of us.

Microwave food at restaurant prices, moody service and not a single. other person in the restaurant, buy a microwave meal instead is my advice

The small frontage and somewhat mass chain appearance of the menu do thos place a disservice. There are a good selection of the headline mexican dishes and those we tried had good flavours and the portions were good for the money. They have a tapas option as well, although many of the dishes are more Spanish, but that clearly may suit some groups better.

Nice atmosphere, decent food, reasonable price.

Popped in for a late night snack on Sunday evening, not many other places open at 9.30pm. We ordered some sharing plates, the portions were fairly small but tasty, the service was OK, not many people in.

Absolutely delicious and hot will definitely order again .

While visiting Lincoln we stopped in for dinner, however the lack of guest at dinner time should have given us a clue. Tasteless food drenched in mozzarella cheese. The refried beans were a weird grey color, I'm not sure what type of beans were used. The rice was completely inedible. Nice location but I would highly suggest they actually revisit their cooking method as this did not resemble Mexican food in any fashion.

Nice place, friendly staff, accommodated well for a party if 16, would go again!

Staff were friendly and proficient, but food was bland.

Do not recommend. I've been to Tequilas twice now, once last year and earlier this month. Not only have a seen a rats around the building, the management are rude to staff and the food was bland, clearly from frozen as it was still cold in the middle. I tried to give it another go but was just as disappointing as my first visit. Such a shame as the waiting staff were great, clearly needs better management.
