Tequila Grill in Barboursville sets itself apart from other Mexican-inspired restaurants in the area with its bright orange facade. And, it may be that - or their mix of traditional and innovative dishes - that is working for them because they have been voted a fan favorite of the county in the past.



Set inside a shopping plaza, the restaurant has plenty of parking and some robust Mexican decor that is like a cross of cantina and neon nightlife. The menu features classic favorites like tacos, burritos and quesadillas. But I do appreciate that they also have things like specialty egg rolls, fish tacos, and more.



Chips & salsa = standard. Chimichanga with all the fixins = decent. I took this meal to go, so part of the lack of texture is on me. I took this meal to go, so part of the lack of texture is on me. But, it was chock-full of veggies and protein, and a big heaping portion overall. I just wouldn't hate somethin' a little extra next time.
