Taquilo's Tex-mex Cantina - Galveston

Nice place, clean. Good service. Some of their top-tier dishes seem a tad expensive, but perhaps this is in downtown price. Was very disappointed, the Galveston website lists them as one of the best happy hour places and from Sunday to Friday. We went and said it was Monday to Friday. I showed them the site and basically got a zero response. House Margaritas are Jose Silver served in a stone glass for 8 dollars. Best to be tuned, not everything that impresses with too much lime. Shrimp Quesadillas were perfectly fixed and very filled. Would go back... a happy hour.

The service was very prompt. I was greeted immediately by the bartender, Aleksandra. She was also very attentive and made sure that I had everything I needed. The manager was very friendly and also checked in on me. Drinks are great, food is delicious and a wonderful atmosphere.

I had an excellent experience at this restaurant. The sauces for the chips were fantastic—mild and unique. The Sangrita margarita was outstanding, but I found the regular margarita to be overly strong on lime, so I wouldn't recommend it. The nachos were decent, and the taco salad was quite good. They also had a Happy Hour special from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. when we visited, which was a nice touch. The atmosphere was pleasant as well!

My first visit here was fantastic—the food was absolutely amazing! Every staff member was friendly, but our waiter truly stood out. I’m definitely planning to return to buy a gallon of their delicious green salsa to put on everything!

The food was outstanding, and the service was impressive. They implemented exceptional COVID safety measures, and the setting was lovely. Overall, the atmosphere was fantastic.
