01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Nestled on the bustling Tamiami Trail in Naples, Mr. Tequila Mexican Restaurant invites diners to enjoy a vibrant celebration of authentic Mexican flavors in a warm and welcoming setting. Specializing in traditional Mexican cuisine, this local favorite crafts each dish with fresh ingredients and bold seasonings that truly transport your taste buds south of the border.

The menu at Mr. Tequila offers something for everyone, making it a perfect destination for families, groups, and solo diners alike. From the comforting and rich Chicken Tortilla Soup served with a delightful mix of rice, avocado, pico de gallo, and crunchy tortilla chips, to generous Lunch Combinations like the Special Lunch #1 featuring a chile relleno, taco, beans, and guacamole salad, every dish bursts with authentic Mexican soul. Don't miss the Lunch Chimichanga—a deep-fried burrito topped with melted cheese, fresh tomato sauce, crisp lettuce, and creamy guacamole, accompanied by tangy sour cream and hearty rice and beans. For those seeking lighter fare, the Salmon or Shrimp Salad pairs perfectly grilled proteins over fresh, crisp lettuce, tomatoes, onions, creamy avocado, and shredded cheese, making a refreshing yet satisfying choice.

Families will appreciate the thoughtful Kids Menu, with favorites like Kids Grilled Cheese and Kids Burrito with rice and beans—each thoughtfully priced and portioned to satisfy little appetites while complementing the vibrant flavors adults crave.

Guests consistently praise the generous portion sizes and the inviting atmosphere that encourages lingering over bites of tender grilled chicken, perfectly seasoned steak quesadillas, and the delightfully smoky pastor pork. While a few customers have noted moments where service fell short of expectations, most reviews highlight the friendly and knowledgeable staff who bring warmth and local charm to the dining experience. The energy of the restaurant can be lively, and the occasional karaoke-style camaraderie among the staff brings a unique, fun ambiance to your visit—though some diners suggest it could benefit from a bit more attentiveness during busy times.

Mr. Tequila’s flavors remain the true star of the show—each dish crafted with care, inviting visitors to savor authentic Mexico with every bite. Whether you’re gathering for a festive group dinner, a casual lunch, or a relaxed family outing, this Naples gem promises a rich culinary experience infused with tradition, character, and heart.

For those craving true Mexican cuisine served with heartfelt hospitality, Mr. Tequila is a destination worth discovering again and again.

The food was great ! But unfortunately.... The service needs improvement. Our waitress could have been more attentive and friendlier—maybe she was having a bad day. Most of the staff spent a lot of time gathered near the hostess stand chatting and even singing like if we were in a karaoke instead of checking on tables. We had to flag our waitress down multiple times, and it felt like we were being ignored. Better focus on the customers would really improve the experience.

This is a great place to go with a big group as they handle the business like a pro! We were a party of 18 and we all got served fast and the people were super amicable! Food was fantastic, it’s not cheap but at least the plates are a good size and the food is delicious! Will definitely come back again! When I called in the mid afternoon to make a reservation for lunch, they were all so helpful and amicable… this is great customer service, and is what makes us coming back again! good job!

Best flavored Mexican food around. The service was impeccable. Lidia was very sweet and kind. You don't find service like that often. Reward your gem! Thank you Mr. Tequila! We will be back!

The quality of the dishes offered is always my primary concern and on this count Mr. Tequila has never disappointed. They offer truly authentic and generous meals. Tuesday taco night is a regular for us and has been for over a decade. The Yolanda combination is amazing. Service is the challenge. The crew just doesn’t do much to make you feel welcome from the time you enter until you leave. Waiting for extra water and salsa is a consistent issue. Lastly, the store itself is in urgent need of a refreshing. Tired floors, booths, chairs and walls are a distraction and the bathrooms need a total do over. I will continue to return as long as the food quality remains but would be hard pressed to bring friends. Hope they can step up their look : (

The carne asada dinner was really great. It came with a little guacamole, flour or corn tortillas, pico, rice and beans. It was cooked perfectly and served hot. Simple and to the point.

The place and decor was beautiful. The food wasn't bad. I wasn't exactly happy with their Elote (mexican street corn ) appetizer. It had very little mayo tajin and cheese. Usually other places I have been are more generous and it taste much better in quality too. The birria tacos weren't my top favorite but they definitely had their uniqueness to it especially since they offered grilled jalapeño and a generous side of sautéed onions on the side. That was different than what I've seen
