Tequileria

I had the barbicoa soft tacos and for airport food it was decent. I would come back here even if it was not in an airport to try more.

If you’ve got a lot of time to kill as you’re flying through CLT, give this place a try. If you don’t have much time, you might consider another place.
I had a few hours to kill recently and was a bit hungry. I’ve been here before and had decent service, so we stopped in for some chicken nachos. We asked for a few of the published ingredients on the side like the sour cream, but didn’t see tomatoes listed and one of us wasn’t happy to see them on the dish. There was also a random french fry in our pile of nachos that I uncovered and lost my appetite. Hey… if a huge french fry can make it into my chicken nachos, what else could be lurking in there that’s a lot smaller (and grosser). See. now you aren’t hungry now, are you?
The order in which our order was placed was: Water, Beer, Chicken Nachos. The order in which was received was: Chicken Nachos. Long Wait. Beer. Long Wait. Reminder about water and silverware. Wait. Water. Wait. Silverware.
Honestly, if I needed a place to sit for a couple of hours and charge my phone while drinking a beer, this is the place I would come to. If I’m hungry and wanting decent food that’s quick, I probably wouldn’t come here.

Bloody Mary had barely any alcohol, very disappointing considering the price. The guac and salsa were fantastic though!

The service is horrible and the food is at best mediocre. If you really want Mexican go to the Salsaritas in the food court right next to it because it’s better. I fly through Charlotte a lot and it’s always the same — poor food, poor service. Today I tried to eat there on my layover and even though many people were trying to get in they closed. Really? I can deal with the mediocre food, but upgrade the experience.

Charlotte airport does not have very many eating options fast food or more. This little Mexican place is a seat yourself and kill some time experience. Overpriced for what it is I at least didn’t feel hassled and the staff were friendly while I killed some time with my QUESO. The menu is a bit confusing for no good reason, but airport eating is a low expectation experience. Despite my jet lag I would go back and get a full meal.

Went here for breakfast. Selection was slim and essentially the same thing with one change. Scrambled eggs, bacon, with tortilla, and potatoes. Food was out fast but the eggs were not real and tasteless. The potatoes were seasoned (with a lot of salt). Way too expensive given the food quality, options and food taste. Service was fine.

The service is a little under the TLC. The waiter did not come check up on us, we would have to call for attention. But overall the food was great. The chicken quesadilla was super good and the guacamole with chips was also good. great stop while doing a layover

Not a bad quick meal between flights.
I had very low expectations because of the poor ratings on Unilocal.
Perhaps that is why I was pleasantly surprised to enjoy my shredded chicken nachos. Keep in mind the nachos have white cheese, not yellow cheese.
The dish had good flavor and the chips were thin and crispy.
Marci will get you outta there fast.

Why didn’t I read this before I sat down and ordered.
This is an airport people are on the GO!!! If I wanted that «slow» southern feel then I wouldn’t be at the airport.
Terrible service. I can’t name anything good. Food was bland. Waitress running around all crazy but only had 3 tables. Airport service requires you to be proficient and fast. They lacked EVERYTHING.

Mediocre food. My burrito was cold, the tortilla was stale, and the filings insipid. And the serving plate seemed to have been chilled, not heated. The margarita was also quite pedestrian, just some tequila and mixer out of a bottle.
One additional star for the waiter that did not suck at his job.

Stopped in for a quick bite before my flight and got the fish tacos, which were decent and come with rice and beans, neither of which are stellar. Service was swift, if not a bit pushy. They really promote their tequila, and it seems a lot of people drink it. I overheard a woman near me suggest to the man who sat next to get an extra shot of tequila in his margarita because it wasn’t very strong.

Absolutely Vile. Cranky service and prison quality food.
Avoid.
Some airport places are good this one should be better and it’s just gross.

Pros: Prompt, friendly service, decent beer selection.
Cons: Crappy Mexican food, and I mean
C-​R-​A-​P-​P-​Y. Taco Bell blows it away.

BLUF: Pretty bad and pretty expensive.
Went to the to-​go section and it was exactly fast. Staff was fine. Food was not good. Poor quality everything. Got the pork with veggies and the veggies was more like a salsa and the pork was minced to a degree that made it unrecognizable. Boooooo

Awful food. Just reprehensible. I feel disgusting and terrible about my life now that I ate that over salted, processed cheese injected, and questionable «meat» meal.
Service — nice but painfully slow, especially for an airport.
The WORST «Mexican» food I’ve ever thrown down my gullate.

Always good can be a bit slow especially if your in a rush but definitely the best sit down spot the airport has to offer. Always go with the black bean soup.

While having a good bit of time for a layover, we were looking to shift it into a Latin-​American gear a little early before our flight to Puerto Rico out of the Charlotte airport.
The tables were clean, and the server was extremely pleasant and attentive, but the food was really not the bee’s knees. We had chips and salsa, with the salsa tasting pretty much like Pace (not my fave), and a triple side of quac (since the order is actually quite small our server was kind enough to combine three orders into a larger bowl). The guac was pretty flavorless, and we heard the same from our buddies that ordered the quesadilla.
They did have Tecate though, and limes, and again our waiter was great and the bill wasn’t a total punch in the gut since we didn’t order that much. I would say if you’re in a South of the Border state-​of-​mind at the Charlotte airport, a Tecate at Tequileria will do you right, but maybe try and spice up the food with some lime juice and/​or an unmarked vile of house blended spices (like the one my mom gives me and expects me to carry around to season my food).

$ 12, 1 oz shots? No fucking thank you.
Especially after this heartwarming encounter:
The bartender — a young woman with extensive tattoos on her arms and short black and blonde ponytails — picked a fight with a customer who’s server had forgotten him and his wife in the back of the restaurant.
Mr Customer tried to politely ask for his check, explaining the situation and the bartender defiantly stated that she could not help him and that he needed to pay at his table where his server had forgotten them for some time.
Mr customer very patiently restated his quandary after which he bartender, without a word, stormed off into the back of the restaurant. Upon returning; she didn’t even look at mr customer and proceeded to go take a drink order from another customer at the bar (this all happened on 11/​29/​2014 between 515pm –530pm).
Mr customer ended up getting his bill and signing from some other employee at the bar.
My experience was fine until the check was requested with one last beer. The Same bartender as above sat laughing with another bartender, preparing several other drinks in glasses, and doing something else right in front of me for about five minutes before she finally remembered to crack a top off a beer put it in front of me and hit a button that printed my receipt all in under 10 seconds.
Way to go to pay attention to your customers.

The place was not busy. The food was good. But, the service was slow. And, the staff seemed not to want to answer any questions. No prices on the menu for margaritas but the «one grade up from house tequila» cost $ 16.
As my wife said «good food for an airport»

I would not eat here again. I could’ve bought the nachos and salsa at half the price for twice the serving size at the grocery store. Even the margaritas are not good. And they served a pint glass. Why? The tacos look good, but they are flavorless and bland at best. I’m irritated I wasted my money here.
