Tequiztlan Mexican Restaurant and Tequila Bar

Went with a friend on a Friday night for dinner. It wasn't busy at all and we got seated right away. Then, we waited for 10 mins before anyone came to get our drink orders. Once the food was ordered, it came our quickly, but overall, service was lacking and the restaurant was warm. As far as the food, it was great. Ceviche appetizer, platanos rellenos (2), and guacamole were all delicious and I would definitely recommend them. The happy hour guacamole is maybe enough for one person, so we ordered the regular size. For those 3 things and a small sparkling water, we spent $55. The prices are steep, but that's too be expected on miami beach. The restaurant has a really great atmosphere. A little dark, but well styled. I'm hoping it was just an off-night for service.

This Mexican food here is pretty good for Miami Beach, the quality is great but the prices are so steep for some items. We ordered Elote off their menu for $10 and all that comes out is a handful of corn topped with Mexican cheese, mayo, and chile piquin. The service we received was pretty dreadful - I think they were really understaffed. We called to order pick up and I was put on hold for 10mins. I hung up to ring again a few times and the line was always busy. We were pretty determined to have dinner there so we went to put in our take out order in person instead which wasn’t a quick process. As we were sitting at the bar waiting for our food, we watched staff purposely ignore the phones and i quickly figured out why we couldn’t put in our order before. I have had some good experiences here which is why I left a 3 star review, but I certainly would only use this place as a last resort for my Mexican food cravings because there are other spots in Miami where you can get the same qual

Absolutely brilliant restaurant with great food and service! Some really fun cocktails to try on the menu and some great quality food but beware not too over order, the portions are generous! The decor and feel is fun, clean. Would definitely recommend!
