Tequila Sunrise has long been a staple of Mexican fare in Larchmont - Many a night, my friends and I wandered in there simply for drinks and chips in the late hours, since the bar area is separate and they play music on the weekends, but I had never actually eaten a meal there. The Menu is very extensive, with a long list of traditional food items. You sit in beautifully crafted tall back wooden chairs, with a simple white tablecloth covering your table. I ordered a Shrimp Quesadilla and it was AMAZING! The Strawberry Margarita I got tasted like plastic, so I traded it in for their signature drink, a Tequila Sunrise - VERY STRONG! but subpar. As were the chips & salsa. Their bar offers fun slammer shots. A Mariachi band will come to your table, christen you with a Sombrero and sing
Felice Compleanos. The decor is very Mayan - if it weren't for the college partying going on on the other side of the Bar (complete with TVs showing sports & Current music), it's a very intimate, traditional, exciting & entertaining atmosphere. The dining room is very spread out, so it's probably a better setting for big groups and birthday outings.

Food was great, Menu selection was great, Drinks were subpar, strong but nothing special, but the overall experience for me wasn't inviting. Too rowdy a crowd for the 3 of us who went to eat. Maybe next time in a bigger group it will be a more enjoyable experience.
