El Tequila Mexican Restaurant - Goreville (IL)

5 /5 Mindy Kuppler: What a wonderful little gem. Food was delicious. We asked for a more Authentic salsa with our chips , which was delivered! The service was excellent and friendly. We enjoyed our whole experience.

5 /5 Nex: Got there after cycling 60 miles. Wow was the food good, the service was great. They give you chips and salsa while you wait for the food which was also out very quickly. The portion sizes are excellent and the price was inexpensive. I would definitely go there again if I could.

4 /5 Austin Simmons: Nice little lunch spot. I made the vegetarian Fajita vegan by asking for no cheese or sour cream and it came out quick and sizzling. I wasnt blown away by the service or guacamole but I also have no complaints.

5 /5 Jayce: The food was great, Amazing place to go to with a very waitress and the cook made some of the best Mexican food Ive ever had.

5 /5 Cindy Middendorf: Hubby and I were visiting Ferne Clyff State Park while on a Shawnee National Park vacation. We stopped here to get some lunch. We were pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. The complimentary chips were thin, crisp, fresh and delicious. The salsa was very mild, but good flavor. Im sure they can heat it up if you want it spicier. I had guacamole and it was fresh and not overpowered by any non-avocado ingredients. Hubs had the steak fajita lunch special at only $11.99and was very happy with it and he is a picky fajita-lover. It came with the rice, beans, and all the fixings including guacamole. I opted for the chicken fajita salad and was delighted with it. The warm fajita mix was at the bottom of a large salad taco shell with the lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole and cojita cheese on top. There was cheese melted in the fajita mix at the bottom. It was heavenly. There were more onions in the fajitas than we prefer, but the flavor was excellent. If we lived in the area, we would be regulars. The restaurant is small, but cutely decorated. Its not fancy, but we didnt care.
