   Music too loud. wait staff linens in buffet next to our seat, opening and slamming the doors shut constantly. Wait staff came by too often during the meal, then had to find them to pay the bill. $138 for two people, 6 oysters, 1 margarita, and 2 so-so entrees? Not coming back

   This was our first time into Tekila Steakhouse, and we were delighted. We were celebrating a birthday in a party of 6 (three couples). (Originally, it was going to be 8, so they can accommodate bigger groups if you need them to.) Our reservation was for 830pm on a Saturday, which was all they had available when I booked it out about 3 weeks early. The place was packed. There were people waiting, even that late, for something to come open. The first round of drinks was a little slow to reach the table, but I think that was in part to the waitress bringing 3 different wines over for presentation and approval (which was nice but unnecessary). The sheer number of people in the place would create that situation, too, and we all had water, which was refilled while we waited for the cocktails and such. The food was lovely. My boyfriend and I had the Jasper Oysters and the octopus dish for appetizers. Fabulous. I got the Chipotle Lobster pasta dish (divine!) and he got the Birria Tacos. They brought him a pretty birthday sweet at the end, which was nice. There were two different steaks ordered at our table, and they were prepared tableside, which was neat to see. You'll want to keep your share plate, though, so that you can pull the meat off the hot stone to avoid overcooking. There was an automatic 18% gratuity on our ticket, assumedly because we were a party of 6. I don't mind auto-grat and actually wish they'd default to the typical 20%, but we were able to add more to the ticket for our great server, Jessica. We had a lovely night, and I actually liked that the place was bustling because we can get loud, too. Having it be a noisier place was nice because it allowed us not to worry about laughing too hard or cheers-ing too loud. We all had a great time! Highly recommend, but definitely make a reservation.

   The atmosphere is 10/10!!! However, the food is very underwhelming. Everything looks amazing but lacks flavor. Like ZERO. Ordered 2 alcoholic drinks neither of which had a drop of the Tito’s it was supposed to come with. Our service was superb!!! Our waitress was so knowledgeable and attentive. Which is how my bill reached a total of $180 she made everything sound so delicious!! Overall, I would go back for pictures ONLY!!

   Our meal far exceeded our expectations, The food was wonderful and truly is a great restaurant. From the way they presented the menu. Served our wine and overall service they topped other fine dining. This definitely will become one of our go to places.

   So yummy! Starts with a salsa cart that comes to your table, and she makes fresh salsa to your liking. Everything was super flavorful.

    This dinner was great, drinks was great…… only thing was that the smoke alarm went off several time during dinner, which interrupted conversation from time to time but an overall great experience. Definitely will return!
