    Absolutely amazing experience at La Tequila. We came for dinner and every dish we ordered was excellent — you can really taste the quality and care put into the food. One thing we didn’t know beforehand was that they have a play area with a nanny for kids, which ended up being a huge plus for us and made the experience even more enjoyable. The tequila flight was good, though not necessarily anything mind blowing, but the food more than made up for it. The staff was lovely, attentive, and very respectful throughout the entire night. Overall, it was a great experience and definitely a place we would come back to again.
