We loved this place in the past and even stayed with them through staffing issues and long wait times for take out through Covid, but the last few times we've tried to order, we've been told they can't take our order because they've closed their kitchen early. The first time we called about two hours before closing, they didn't answer their phone for a while and when they finally did, they said they were done taking orders for the night. We didn't think much of it and left it alone, assuming they were just busy. The second time we called about an hour and a half before closing and they told us they sent the kitchen staff home early and closed the kitchen. We called the Brookfield location and ordered from them instead. They were happy to have our order and even though I wasn't happy to drive so much further, the food was delicious so we were happy. Tonight, we called the Pewaukee location over 30 minutes before closing and they told me they were busy earlier so they sent their kitchen staff home early and were not taking any additional orders. I confirmed with the man that answered the phone that they were still open for over a half hour but he said the kitchen was closed early.
I've worked in the service industry and have served and bartended at several restaurants. I understand that sometimes kitchens close before the bar area, etc but that isn't the (advertised) case with this restaurant. If they want to close early on a regular basis, they should update their kitchen hours to reflect their desire to send the kitchen staff home early on a regular basis.
We were once again disappointed with this location and won't be dining with them again. I suggest they either update their hours to reflect their business practices or they stay open during their...
Read moreI’ve been to Casa Tequilla on at least three different occasions. I wasn’t impressed with my first visits and thought the food was just “okay” at best. I recently stopped in again for lunch out of convenience and I ordered the taco carnitas. The chips and salsa that are standard was nothing special, the salsa is not homemade. The rice and beans on the side were sadly the best part of the meal. The tacos came on corn tortillas with pulled pork, cilantro and onion. The pork looked pale as I would bet that it came out of a leftover container in the refrigerator and the juice had all seeped out of the meat along with mush of the flavor. The corn tortillas were very mushy, almost pasty, and it was likely that they were constructed from the fridge and then microwaved before being topped with the cilantro and onion. There was a moment where I did wonder if this was safe to eat. Fast forward about 45 min and I was desperately looking for a restroom with several minutes of clammy cold sweats. The bill for three tacos and a Diet Coke plus tax was almost $20. I tipped $5 as the service was friendly and attentive but don’t think I’ll ever...
Read moreTotally disappointed I placed my order online so I wouldn't have to at 245 I arrived at 310 and I didn't leave until 330 pm. There's one table with customers and a few sitting at the bar. One customer in front of me waiting on drinks to go. I stood at the front for at least 5 minutes before i was finally greeted by someone who was at the front podium doing something in the tablet. Then I was charged the amount. I sat their waiting for almost 30 more from the time online that was said I need to wait at least 1/2 before going for my order because that's how long it would take. I get there at almost 30 minutes from placing my order. I live 10 minutes so I get home ready to eat a hot meal and everything is cold and it's not due to weather because my heater was on. Anyways I get home and I cut into my burrito and there's more tortilla than there is meat and beans. So I decided to just open the burrito and the filling and it was practically empty. Luckily I ordered a taco salad also which was plain and half empty. For 27 dollars and some change this is not the place to get filled unless you want to get full...
