One Taco Dos Tequilas
One Taco Dos Tequilas — well-regarded mexican in Palatine. Expect noise, energy, and a full house. Worth ordering a drink, because the bar holds its own. Betty barboro: "The mole was probably the best I’ve had in years… smoky, spicy, not overly sweet" [$$]

“We recently had an unforgettable dining experience at One Tacos Dos Tequilas! This Mexican restaurant truly stands out for its authentic flavors, family-friendly atmosphere, and exceptional service. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed by the warm, inviting ambiance that makes it perfect for both family outings and date nights. We started with the nachos and guacamole, and wow—the flavors were amazing! The nachos came loaded with fresh toppings, cheese, and a perfectly seasoned layer of meat that created a mouthwatering combination. The guacamole was smooth and flavorful, paired with fresh, crispy chips that made it the ideal appetizer to kick off our meal. For our main course, we ordered the chicken quesadillas, and they did not disappoint. The quesadillas were stuffed with tender, juicy chicken and just the right amount of cheese, creating the perfect balance in each bite. The quality of ingredients was evident, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. We couldn’t resist finishing our meal with the churros, which were perfectly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and rolled in just the right amount of cinnamon and sugar—simply delightful! To top it all off, the drink selection here is phenomenal. The tequila cocktails are crafted to perfection, making One Tacos Dos Tequilas a standout spot for anyone who enjoys a well-made margarita or a unique tequila-based cocktail. Whether you’re here for a casual family dinner or celebrating a special occasion, One Tacos Dos Tequilas delivers on all fronts. I highly recommend it to anyone craving an authentic Mexican dining experience with a welcoming vibe and top-notch food and drinks. Can’t wait to come back!”
“Fine place and i wish that my fajitas meat would taste better and well seasoned and cooked better. But good customer service”
“I tried really hard to like this local spot but they screwed up my take out order. I didn’t get my dessert or my ranch dressing so they did get most of my order correct. They offered to give me an extra piece of cake if I drove the 10 miles back there to make up for their mistake. I declined. The food was decent but it’s hard to judge a taco salad without dressing. This place is a bit pricey for the locals in my opinion.”
“Voy de vez en cuando tomo unos nichos steak fajina y me parece que es un buen lugar.”
“This is our go to place when we go to visit my daughter! The food is Always Amazing. The service is Fantastic! Everyone Always has Fast Friendly service! I just wish it was closer to home so we could visit more often!!”
