El
Tequila
is
one
of
my
most
favorite
places
to
eat-
authentic
Mexican
food.
It's
about
45
minutes
from
the
cities,
would
I
drive
there
to
just
eat
there?
Probably
not,
but
if
I
happened
to
be
in
the
area,
I
would
definitely
make
my
way
there,
even
for
take
out.
The
exterior
is
a
dated
orange
building
sitting
on
the
side
of
Lyndale
Ave
amongst
unkept
tall
grass,
a
little
dilapidated
but
don't
let
that
turn
you
away.
Once
inside
you're
greeted
by
familiar
faces
of
the
family
that
keeps
the
operation
going,
the
smell
of
freshly
cook
tortilla
chips
and
more
orange
walls
reminiscent
of
a
Hacienda,
decorated
with
traditional
art
and
pottery.
Once
sat,
complimentary
chips
and
salsa
are
bought
to
the
table.
Pro-tip:
ask
for
seconds.
The
salsa
is
made
in
house,
a
liquid
salsa
consistency
married
together
with
chunks
of
onions,
cilantro
and
tomatoes
creating
this
robust
umami
flavor
of
goodness!
I
have
drank
the
salsa
before,
it's
okay.
On
to
the
rest
of
the
food,
I
highly
recommend
the
Molcajete
and
Burrito
de
Asada.
The
Molcajete
is
for
someone
who
can't
decide
on
their
protein
(so
why
not,
have
it
all?);
it
is
a
mix
of
chicken,
beef,
pork
and
shrimp
comes
out
sizzling
hot
in
a
Molcajete
served
with
rice,
beans,
guacamole,
sour
cream
and
tortilla.
It's
essentially
a
DIY
burrito/taco/wrap-
what
could
go
wrong?
Burrito
de
Asada
is
also
served
with
rice,
lettuce,
salsa
and
sour
cream;
pro-trip:
ask
to
"spice
it
up"
for
an
extra
kick
or
on
the
side
if
unsure
about
spicy
levels.
The
Faribault
location
is
the
better
location
so
I've
heard
from
those
in
the
area.
Highly
recommend
if
you're
in
the
area.

always
busy
eating
chips
and
salsa.
