Tacos & Tequila in De Weteringschans

Nice place! Tasty cocktails and food!

The restaurant is fine, right in the city center. The food is very good. It is just a shame that we had to leave after our main course to make room for others. And that despite the fact that we had made a reservation and were only inside for an hour. Not very customer-friendly.

Tacos & Tequila is a nice restaurant with great, although pricey food. The reason for a 1-star service rating is my girlfriend ordered a simple ginger tea with her meal, which is her common choice. After several minutes, the tea arrived looking lovely, however after several minutes (30+) and several taste tests, still tasted like plain water, with was absolutely no taste of ginger. We asked the waiter who simply said, that's the way it is supposed to taste, and walked away. What?!?! We asked again, when we could catch their attention, got the same response, so I asked to speak to "someone". The head waiter (?) came by and said the same thing. I politely said "No, ginger tea is supposed to have a nice ginger taste", they dismissed our thoughts, so I said "Well, I'm not paying for it" (on principle only). When we finished our meal and they brought the bill, I refused to pay for the tea. I asked to speak to the manager, who came, immediately began berating us in public, and hostilely demanded that we pay for the tea. I stood our ground, eventually he begrudgingly backed down, and we paid the bill and left. We have traveled extensively around the world, and could not believe what had just taken place.

Everything was simply incredible!!!

Friendly service, a very nice, cozy place. But some meals were a huge disappointment, like the beef taco; the meat was well-filled but very salty, and there were no vegetables with it like a tomato, some lettuce, or corn! Not even guacamole with it (very meager and stingy), which is supposed to be included. No, as I noticed later on the bill, you have to pay for that. Absurd! I ordered fried green banana, which was tasty, but it came with a dollop of guacamole; I had to pay an extra 3 euros for that, really ridiculous and stingy!! Another dish with rice, meat, avocado, and a tasty tomato and onion salad was good. Also ordered 2 mango jarittos, which were recommended. It costs a whopping 6 euros per bottle, really ridiculous, not normal. So 12 euros for 2 soft drinks. Once again, it is a nicely decorated place, but I don't think I will eat there again.

So I was here last week while visiting Amsterdam, the food is at best decent.. the birria tacos lacked flavour and the jalapeño poppers bursting in oil, the staff on the other hand was quite rude in my opinion just constantly stare at you from across the room like you’ve a fly on your forehead (although the one man working the tables was a gentleman) makes people a little uncomfortable. And the price is absolutely extortionate! And I mean extortionate!

Thank you to the young Serbian gentleman who served us after we were spoken to at reception by a waitress as if we were children. She seemed bothered by having to do her job, almost as if she didn’t want to serve us at all. She avoided looking us in the eye, as if she had something against us. Strangely, she did not behave this way toward the customers sitting at the table next to us. Fortunately, the young Serbian waiter was professional, polite, and made the experience much more pleasant. We would have enjoyed the food more if she didn’t behave that way.

The food and staff are great. The restrooms, however, are a disaster, not nice at all. Like I said, the food and staff are great.

Yesterday evening, around 10:00 PM, I came here for dinner with my mother. It is now 5:00 PM the next day, and we both still feel very sick. We were unable to sleep all night due to nausea and repeated vomiting. I also had significant chest pressure. We had come to Amsterdam specifically for two days, but due to our symptoms, we had to cut our trip short and left for home in a hurry the following morning. Naturally, we cannot determine the cause with certainty, but the symptoms started shortly after our visit and cause us serious concern regarding possible food poisoning. Unfortunately, this has completely ruined our trip.

This place is crazy good!!! Best Mexican ever!

Delicious and authentic Mexican food! The margaritas were really good and went perfectly with the meal. The service was also attentive and very friendly.

The tacos were delicious, though I was a bit shocked by the bill. But it was worth it.

Loved this place would return no doubt

The place does one thing good which is service and atmosphere but on food this is not mexian food at all. Completely void of taste and spices...tried three different tacos and a burrito only thing we could taste was the batter and bland rice. Mexican food is so simple to make yet surprising how such popular place doesn't get it. For the amount you spend any other place would do better I assume.

Service was extremely friendly and attentive, food was tasty but in my opinion it is all very overpriced. I understand it is Amsterdam center but still. Another negative point is that it was very hot inside, we couldn’t wait to get out for some fresh air.

Good Service All employees are nice and kind Fast and Delicious Food

This was a bit of a disaster for us as we were so looking forward to our meal. Our main order was the wrong order. We waited for 30 minute and asked again. The waiter seemed surprised we were waiting, it was obvious then they forgotten to reorder. We were offered free cocktails but they never arrived! Eventually our burritos arrived after an hour of waiting and they were cold and very lacking in flavour. We were offered free churros due to the very poor service and, yes you’ve guessed it they never arrived as well! It was a complete comedy of errors! We did get a discount on the food we received, but it didn’t compensate spoiling our evening. It’s up to you whether you take a chance on this place.

Tasty tacos, tantalising tequila. XOXO

Nice drinks ! Lovely staff - Sophie was such a great help!

We ate very well. Super friendly staff.

It was good. The food lacked substance, the chicken was a little spicy and the beer was dry in our opinion.

The Chicharron was mostly fat & hard to eat pork, not very crunchy, but it wasn't bad, just not what i expected. The thick fry like side dish (that comes with it) was also very dry, didn't really like that. The Birria Taco's were very good though, one was a LITTLE bit burned, but really nothing noticeable. Wouldn't go back, but I sure wouldn't say i didn't enjoy my visit, because it was quite nice!

Truly a top-notch place! Very cozy atmosphere, the food and drinks arrive very quickly and were really delicious. When we had some questions about the tequila, Pablo helped us out tremendously. SHOUT OUT PABLO! Definitely recommended!

What a great place, delicious food and a really nice atmosphere. The tacos are top-notch and the burritos are definitely recommended. If you want to know anything about tequila, you definitely have to go to Pablo!!! What a great place and a great evening! Definitely recommended.

Tadty tacos, cozy atmosphere, fast service

Tacos were delicious, but over priced for the portions, and the margarita was awkwardly filmy. 8 dollars for a very small taco is about 2x what I usually pay. Guac was merely mashed avocado without any spices or other typical ingredients.

Amazing food and margs! The service is amazing, totally recommend this place! 💕

The food was amazing, and so were the cocktails. Loved Fries and Loaded Nachos. Service was quick, and the staff was prompt.

As a Mexican, I can say this place definitely passes the test 👏🇲🇽 Finding good tacos outside of Mexico isn't easy, but Tacos & Tequila in Amsterdam is a real surprise. The flavors are well-balanced, the tortillas have a great texture, and the ingredients feel fresh. We tried several tacos (including birria and carne asada) and they definitely satisfied our cravings. The drinks are also a highlight—the margaritas and tequila are very well-made, which adds an authentic touch to the experience. The atmosphere is very pleasant, perfect for going with friends or for a casual outing. The service was good and fast. That said, like everything in Amsterdam, it's not cheap, but considering the quality and how difficult it is to find decent Mexican food in Europe, it's worth it. It's not quite like eating in Mexico, but it's definitely one of the best taco spots you'll find around here. Recommended 👍

My favorite place in Amsterdam 😍😍😍😍

As an African American from the south USA. I've had a lot of Mexican cuisine out to cali and mexico....70 euros is beyond egregious for a half pitcher and that 18 hours marinated chicken tacos...more like 18 minutes. The portions were way too small for the tacos to be 7-9 euros each. But the service was amazing and top tier, but their pricing was horrible.

Gorgeous restaurant with some of the best food we’ve had in a while - the tuna tostadas were phenomenal. 5/5 all round! 😍

Amazing food and incredible service! We went twice while in Amsterdam, the first time was amazing by itself, but especially after witnessing what seemed to be a difficult table the second time really solidified our opinion! If you’re not going for the food, go for the service.

Very Great Mexican restaurant in Amsterdam ! The tacos are so good ! 🌮 Warm and fun atmosphere, top-notch service, and super friendly waitresses who make the whole experience even better (thanks to all the team)! 😉

Nice for a quick bite, but nothing really stands out.

Nice restaurant, but a bit pricey, €14 for a margarita, but otherwise overall you ate very well!

Such a lovely place! There was a warm atmosphere, the dishes were so tasteful even if a bit pricy in my opinion, but it's ok being in the city centre! I suggest this place for everything felt in love with tacos

Had a delicious meal, the spicy sauce is REALLY spicy! We spent a fun evening there. Extensive tequila menu!

Good good and micheladas (I recommend the special). Very friendly staff. @staff It would be really nice to have the option to have the burrito with a bit less rice and more beef for a small premium. I'd def pay it! @

Delicious tacos and burritos in a very pleasant setting. Very attentive staff. They speak Spanish. Super fast service! Highly recommended!

Very tasty tequillas and food, a wide variety of taste accessories to choose from

Amazing place and amazing food . The guy was very friendly and helpful

Excellent and authentic Mexican cuisine! The service was very friendly and all the dishes were delicious. There were many options, including plenty of vegetarian choices, and everything was truly very tasty.

I was here a couple of years ago and I remembered this place was good but when I visited again, it was quite disappointing. One taco for 8€ and it didn’t even taste good. Especially the chicken one tasted very dry and old.

Really cosy place and excellent food! Took my teenqge daughter with 3 of her friends and they just loved it! Vegetarian choice too was great!

Disappointing value for money The waiters were friendly, but the food was unfortunately disappointing. €8 for a single, tiny taco is simply far too expensive, especially since every extra item costs extra. The taste was also terrible. Despite the high bill, we all had to find a snack elsewhere afterward to fill up.

Great taco lunch at Tacos & Tequila in April 2026. The tacos are relatively small but packed with delicious toppings. Service was quick and incredibly kind. We paid around €75 for 2 sets of 4 tacos, 2 non-alcoholic beers, and tap water -- decent quality-price ratio for Amsterdam. For families, there is a changing table in the left-side bathroom in the restaurant.

I am from Texas and love Texmex food. This is the best place I have found in Amsterdam. The food was fresh and tasted excellent. Will defiantly be returning. The service was exceptional and we had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners who explain to us about all the tequilas they offer. Great experience. I gave 3 stars on the atmosphere because it was a bit dark inside.

Tacos and Margaritas were delicious! Service was very timely but not rushed whatsoever and staff was very friendly. It’s hard to find good Mexican cuisine so if you’re looking, this is the place to visit.

It was very quiet when we visited this place, but it is a great location just off the busy streets. The tacos were very good.

I found this place by accident but I am sure glad I did! The experience and food was beyond 5 stars. True authentic Mexican food served by the most amazing group of people. I usually have high expectations of food and service and this place exceeded all standards. The staff is amazing beyond words, a whole team of people bring you a truly flawless experience. Visiting this establishment was the highlight of my trip and I will come back to Amsterdam just to visit Tacos & Tequila! A truly special thank you to Sophie ,Damian , Jason , Jorden, Kiki, and Deborah. All of you have made this a truly special experience i will never forget! You are amazing!

The place was clean and had a welcoming atmosphere. But honestly, the quality-to-price ratio is terrible. One taco costs €8. A burrito that you could easily make at home costs €24. It seems absurd to pay €70 and go home hungry. I don't recommend it.

Perfect place, perfect amazing food, nothing more to add to it ❤️

Been here twice before with the previous (now seemingly old) menu, and on both occasions the food and service were incredible — easy 5 stars. Unfortunately, this visit was a huge letdown and I’ve had to drop my rating to 2 stars. Prices have seemingly doubled in the last six months. €24 for a burrito that was genuinely about the size of half a slice of toast is extremely hard to justify. While the flavour was okay and there was a decent amount of birria beef, the portion was very small overall. To make matters worse, it came with two single tortilla chips and a smear of sauce, which honestly felt insulting at that price point. My partner ordered chicken wings for €13. The portion size itself was reasonable, but charging an extra €2 for sauce is ridiculous. The wings were dry, almost burnt, and only lightly seasoned with a mild “Mexican-style” flavour. They also ordered a quesadilla — something you could easily make better at home. It had barely any tomatoes in it, lacked flavour, and €11 for half a quesadilla is shocking. It really feels like prices have either increased across the board or were inflated because it was around New Year’s. Either way, it’s a business practice I can’t support. This place has gone from a must-visit to “we’ll give it one more chance

Eventhough the taste of the food was nice, each of my tortillas kept falling apart. Therefore, I had to use cutlery to eat tacos…

Great food, lovely atmosphere, and Natalie (our server) was super, super nice!! We had a wonderful evening!!! 10/10 would recommend!!

I had made a reservation, but they couldn't find it in the system. We ordered food and then had to wait an hour. The food was cold, the cheese on the nachos was too hard. The nachos weren't topped properly with the toppings. The birria burger wasn't filled properly. The meat also tasted very old. Overall, a terrible experience. I will definitely never return and I don't recommend it!

We were craving Mexican & found this place that has the most delicious food. Best jalepenos poppers I've had in a long time! Get the Margaritas, you won't regret it! Natalie was a great server

The food here was delicious! While the tacos are a little on the expensive side they really do give you a good amount for the price! I had beef, octopus and chicken tacos and the flavour was great! Extra spicy sauce can be added on the side for those wanting that extra kick ranging in spice level! All cocktails can be had with or without alcohol which is great for those not wanting to drink but would like to try the range of margaritas! Staff were very friendly and welcoming! Atmosphere was very cozy!

Excellent food, atmosphere, and service. We really enjoyed it.

Both delicious tacos and tequila + wonderful service. The name says it all!

Cash not accepted. Split the bill: not allowed. The tables can be unconfortable for group of more than 6 people.

This place has great Mexican food. I tried the tacos and nachos and really liked the chicken and octopus tacos. The habanero–pineapple salsa pairs perfectly with both the tacos and the nachos. The service was also excellent. The only downside for me was the price. Compared to other Mexican restaurants, it’s definitely on the higher side. However, the quality of the food and cocktails is very good.

Delicious food and friendly service

Really good food and service!!!. It also has a really nice Mexican vibe!

Wow! If you ever have a craving for great Mexican food - this is a place to go. Amazing tasting food and friendly service. C U next time!

We ate at this restaurant on our first evening in Amsterdam and were absolutely delighted. The food was delicious, and the drinks were excellent as well. The exceptionally friendly service deserves special mention – the waiter was incredibly attentive and welcoming. We felt so comfortable that we returned for dinner the very next evening. Highly recommended!

pretty expensive for what you get

Truly delicious tacos! Fast and efficient service, even without a reservation. We had an appetizer and two taco entrees, all very good and well-prepared. Fair price: €70 total. A truly positive experience, we'll definitely be back!

The food was alright, but they got our orders wrong. When we told them we were missing certain things, they said we never ordered anything like that.

Natalie is fantastic. She's need a pay rise. Don't let her leave and go to Berlin!!

Honestly the food was nothing special. But the service was just horrible. They messed up our taco order. We ordered 5 but we got 3 instead. So when we wanted the extra 2 taco's they told us we need to order 3.

Very nice staff and amazing food!

Great mexican food. Service and atmosphere is fine, but not excellent.

This place has the best food! Every time I come to Amsterdam I need to visit this place. Specifically, I order the tacos, it’s the most authentic and delicious food. The prices are pretty reasonable as well! 10/10

Expensive. Even the Tap water is not free... and I couldnt find the price in the menu, so it was a big surprise when the check came...

Excellent food and a nice atmosphere. It's a shame the kitchen closes so early, but that's how it is in almost all restaurants in Amsterdam.

Very delicious food and exceptionally friendly staff! Big assortment of tequilas!

Um … just YUM!!!! Delicious food and great service !

The food leaves a lot to be desired, rude staff

We went here for dinner on Saturday night. We had 30% off the Fork discount. We ordered nachos, birria tacos, shrimp, pork, and chicken, and they were all very good except for the pork, which wasn't very good because it was cold. The food all came at once and should have been served in stages. We also ordered quesadillas and Mexican beers. Overall, everything was good and the prices are okay!

Great place! Recommend this to anyone. From an American xpat who misses Mexican food.

Amazing service, amazing quality would recommend!!

Amazing service and great quality food

Great personel, quality food and drinks. Definitely try it out.

Great tacos, great vibes, would recommend👌🏼

The service was so good. The taco and quesadilla were fine. The meat was brisket. Not the best, just average. The service was excellent.

We had a really nice dinner and the place is stylish. The Service is super friendly. We recommend coming here

Very expensive tacos, tiny portions and everyone that ordered got something wrong, either an ingredient that they did not want still came or a wrong taco altogether.

Amazing food & cocktails and great atmosphere! Just don’t be 15 minutes late 👍

We were a big group, but most of us where didsappointed with the food. Out of the 3 taco's only 1 was still warm. The drinks were good, and the service was friendly. I'd recommend they get a plate warmer, or bring out the food faster.

Natalie was great serving us, she speaks no less than 4 languages so come and challenge her!

Had no idea we would have some of the best tacos and churros in Amsterdam! Decor was delightful, food was fantastic, service was great.

Natalie was an amazing server, so sad she’s going. We’ve been coming here years just for her. She makes every Amsterdam visit 10 times better.

Good food, good service, cozy ambiente! Definitely recommend going here.

Natalie and team, incredible! Thank you so much!

Dave the bar man was fantastic!

Tacos are unreal here, the best we’ve had in Amsterdam. Grab a mango caliente to warm up your loins first.

We went on a Monday, and even though it’s not a very common day to go out, the restaurant was full. I definitely recommend making a reservation. The atmosphere was great — relaxed, lively, and perfect for a fun, chatty evening, with good music and nice decoration. As for the food, it was good, but nothing extraordinary in my opinion. One thing I found strange was that the tacos don’t come with guacamole, which for me is a bit odd. If you want guacamole, you have to pay an extra €2 😑. The burrito was good, but it only came with about four or five nachos. The cocktails were just okay. One thing I didn’t enjoy was the fact that our table was right next to the heater, which became uncomfortable because of the heat. To be fair, I love Mexican food, so maybe I’m being a bit too critical. The prices are typical for Amsterdam — it’s hard to find good places for under €30.

Some starter dishes a little too dry, but the margaritas are proper and tacos are delicious!
