Tequilas Mexican Grill & Taqueria
The Verdict
Tequilas is Mooresville's best budget Mexican option. The tacos are legit, the burritos are massive, and the prices are hard to beat. The downtown location adds walkability, and the atmosphere is more authentic than most chain Mexican spots in the area.
