   I had Salmon. It was prepared properly and had great flavor. I asked for a frozen prickly pear margarita. Our Server brought it on the rocks. I drank it and didn't make a fuss. I later ordered a glass of riesling. The server came to the table with a bottle of red wine. Then she came back with a bottle of Moscato. So I skipped the wine. My husband and two others in my party ordered steak. All 3 said that the steak had no flavor. My husband and another ordered a smoked old fashion. The server brought them to our table and did not serve them smoked. She said that she didn't know how. So we paid for a smoked old fashioned but did not receive what we paid for. My husband and another were celebrating birthdays. The restaurant gave them a complimentary cupcake. They both said that the cupcake tasted like jiffy corn meal. We will not be returning.

   Tekila was a great choice for my birthday dinner! The food and drinks were delicious, the staff were super friendly, and the atmosphere was amazing. Very clean restaurant and they gave a complimentary birthday dessert. Will be back!

   Tekila Memphis is an upscale Mecican restaurant and steak house. It is a wonderful addition to the Memphis dining options. With a party of four and each of us ordering different items, we were able to sample 3 appetizers and 4 entrees. All of the dishes were perfectly prepared and presentations were appropriate to a fine dinning establishment. The grilled oysters were amazing! The reason I am not rating Tekila an overall 5 is due to a major snafu with the tables. Even though we had a reservation there was a 20 minute wait. Even after waiting, they didn't have any tables for four available and ended up pulling 2 small round tops together. It was very awkward for conversations and didn't provide enough room for plates, platters, glasses etc. Clearly, they have problems managing the reservations!

   Waitress was very polite. Handmade salsa is great and drinks were good. Guacamole was frozen, oysters were bad and the $80 steak was undercooked(rare). We were dismissed when we addressed the issue and told the steak would warm up on the skillet. It did not warm up, all the skillet did was make the steak tough. Good environment/ ambiance all in all would have given it like a 7/10 but being served an undercooked steak and no attempt to resolve the issue I give this a 4/10

    Overall very enjoyable. I LOVED my street corn and pollo al molé. It was huge and could easily feed 2 people. He liked his tacos. The only real complaints are the chairs are way too short for the tables, so I felt like an 8 year old and could have easily stuck my face in my plate. The server was a sweetheart who was trying really hard, but obviously had not been trained properly. Somewhat overpriced, we paid $125 for the above plus 4 drinks.
