Live, from Peoria, Illinois it’s Saturday Night starring this week’s host, Good Tequila’s Mexican Grill and featuring Rosa and a Mystery Dinner Guest!
Now please welcome this week’s host, Good Tequila’s Mexican Grill!
For years this building housed TNT’s Sports Bar & Grill and before that it was The Penguin Tap.
I did several blogs from this TNT’s the most memorable one was where they cooked a dozen tenderloins in different styles and we had a tenderloin party there. Click on this link to see that post.
I forget what year they closed here, but they’re still open in East Peoria, I need to stop by there one of these Saturday night’s, it’s been a while!
But now it’s Good Tequila’s Mexican Grill. Let’s go in and see what’s it’s like inside!
Wow, it looks totally different in here! The dining area is big with tables on one side and comfortable booths lined up against the wall.
I’m eating with a Mystery Dinner Guest who prefers not to have her picture taken and we chose this booth to settle in at for this Saturday Night Mexican fiesta!
Here’s our pretty and friendly waitress, Rosa delivering our drinks with a beautiful smile! The Mystery Dinner Guest got a bottle of Modelo and I got a margarita on the rocks!
The night has officially begun!
They start you off with complimentary chips and salsa and we also ordered an appetizer of their homemade cheese dip.
Check it out, there’s the Mystery Diner’s hand getting ready to dip into the cheese dip!
This was a fabulous start to a Saturday night dinner and now I’m abandoning the Mystery Dinner Guest to go take some photos until the main courses arrive.
Look at the big fish aquarium ini here. If I was a fish, I’d be a little nervous to be living in a restaurant!
The bar in here is big and very nice! They have nice selection of beers on tap.
There’s a large communal table opposite the bar and off to the side are more tables and booths.
Meanwhile, back at our booth…
Saturday night dinner is served!
The Mystery Dinner Guest got a Cheese Quesadilla which is served with lettuce and pico de gallo. She said it was absolutely delicious!
I got the Steak Ranchero, which is a 12 ounce T-Bone covered in spicy Ranchero Sauce and I got a double order of rice because I told them to hold the beans. This was such a taste-treat, the steak was tender and tasty and the Ranchero Sauce added some zip and zing to the meal.
This was a great Saturday night meal, thanks to Rosa and everyone at Good Tequila’s Grill for the tasty food and the nice hospitality. And thanks to the Mystery Dinner Guest for joining me and driving! We’ll see you all tomorrow!
