Mexican restaurant in Taipei

Tequila Sunrise is an upscale Mexican restaurant in Taipei city located across from National Taiwan University (NTU). It's location is very convenient for everyone getting around by bus. The bus stops are right in front of the entrance with busses going into all directions around Taipei city. The food is variable from mild to very hot and spicy. The service is prompt, clean and friendly in a natural way.

Tequila Sunrise's internal and external design provides a very authentically Mexican flair and the menu comes nothing short of what a Mexican restaurant in Mexico city would be.

With several churches of all religions nearby it is good way of celebrating multicultural lifestyles in Taipei.

The dining area is very rustically Mexican with a wooden ceiling. Most tables are laid out for a set of two, romantic dining is what comes into mind first. Perhaps a good place to go on Valentines. Even in daytime the restaurants internal provides a romantic light and play of shadows on the for Mexican restaurants so typical white walls.

The first floor provides a nicely decorated dining room in the back.   

 

    

 

 

The liquor bar is filled decently with Mexican originals.
