    Consistently good food and service. Always busy and last night was no exception, but the hosts are unfailingly polite and accommodating. So glad we made a reservation. A bit of a hiccup when an attempt was made to seat us at a high top. I pointed out my surgical boot and the fact I'd noted this on booking, and despite the crowds we were immediately apologized to and accommodated. While waiting for drinks (very short wait) I watched a young mother and baby being similarly assisted. This is as important to me as the food and drinks. That said, the margaritas are excellent - not too sweet, and the only difficulty is deciding which tacos to choose. I went with de birria, pesce tempura and tijuana shrimp. It's all good!

    The only problem it’s the level of the músic; it’s way too loud!

    From the moment we stepped inside, the vibrant atmosphere of Teocalli Cocina Tequileria promised a delightful dining experience, and it absolutely delivered. This isn't just another Mexican restaurant; it's a celebration of authentic flavors and warm hospitality. The service was equally impressive. Our server, Hannah, was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They were happy to answer our questions and offer recommendations, and they made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The entire staff seemed genuinely dedicated to providing a positive dining experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting. The colorful artwork and festive music created a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, and the tables were spaced comfortably apart. Overall, our experience at Teocalli was outstanding. The delicious food, excellent service, and inviting ambiance combined to create a truly memorable meal. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in a welcoming setting. We will definitely be back.

    Great food and service. Had our holiday lunch there. Parking in downtown Lafayette is not great but the short walk is well worth it!! Daniel was our server and was very patient until our whole party arrived.

    Food was good as always. Service wasn’t as good as usual. Had a new waiter that wasn’t very good. Didn’t ask about drinks. Our food was done for a while and it sat in the window until someone else brought it out.

    Always the best place for food, family and fun. My husband is in a wheelchair and Teocalli has a back entrance that accommodates. Gave us a perfect table.
