" What a delightful surprise at TQLA! I went there for lunch and ordered their carne asada fries. The portion was huge and packed with flavor, the toppings were generous and the fries were crispy! The vibe inside was lively, with music that made it feel festive. The only downside was the slight wait for a table, but the food made it totally worth it. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The nightlife at TQLA is something else! From the moment we walked in, the energy was fantastic. The birria tacos are definitely a highlight, and the margaritas were delicious too. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a fun place to grab drinks and dance the night away. It’s one of my new favorite spots! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an average experience at TQLA. The atmosphere was lively but the service was lacking and I spent too much time waiting for my food. The food itself was decent but not amazing. I probably won’t rush to go back, but I might consider it in the future if others want to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rather disappointing visit. The ambiance was lively, but the food didn’t match the hype. The tacos were decent but very small, especially for the price. My friends enjoyed their drinks, yet the service felt rushed and inattentive. I’m not sure I’d rush back anytime soon, but I might give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely little gem in the suburbs! The ambiance is bright and welcoming, perfect for a family dinner. Everyone loved their meals, especially my mom's birria tacos that she couldn’t stop raving about. On the negative side, we had to wait longer than expected for our food, which put a damper on our experience. But overall, a good visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to TQLA was really fun! The staff at the bar were quick to serve us and the vibe was electric. We absolutely loved the carne asada fries—one of the best! My friends enjoyed the margaritas, especially the fruity flavors. The only downside was the noise level; it was pretty loud. Overall, would return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" TQLA has a fun exploration of flavors! My family and I sampled numerous dishes, and we loved everything. The shrimp tacos stood out for their freshness and taste. However, the prices are somewhat on the higher side, but considering the quality of food and experience, it's reasonable. I’ll definitely come back with friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)
