T&T (Tacos & Tequila) is a highly stylized restaurant with a fun, high-energy vibe and flavorful menu.
Embodying traditional and modern elements of Mexican style intermixed with a rock‘n’roll flair, T&T combines the talents of world-renowned restaurateur Chef Richard Sandoval with the innovative creations of New York-based design team Rafael Alvarez and Brannen Brock for an unparalleled concept.
“This is not your grandma’s cantina – think Pink Taco meets Coyote Ugly interpreted by Quentin Tarantino,” said Owner, Michael Frey. “I am excited to bring our version of a sexy, energy-infused Mexican restaurant to life. Offering more than just a great place to grab an amazing taco or great tequila, it will be a dining experience that will tantalize the senses.”
To bring their edgy vision to life, Michael Frey and Craig Gilbert worked closely with Alvarez + Brock Design on the 8,000 square-foot restaurant. Five icons of Mexican culture – the sombrero, the shot glass, the bullfight, skeletons and seductive women – inspired the design concept.
Translating the vibrancy and flavor of the design to the menu, Frey’s company, Drive This Entertainment! enlisted Sandoval who will serve as consulting chef, and Saul Ortiz, former chef of Isla Mexican Kitchen & Tequila Bar at Treasure Island, as executive chef overseeing day-to-day kitchen operations. The menu will include Sandoval’s unique presentation of modern and traditional Mexican cuisine and a drink program highlighted by an extensive list of tequila selections, specialty cocktails and infused tequilas.
In addition to being a terrific lunch and dinner spot, T&T’s El Salon will be a popular place for nightlife goers to grab a tasty bite or frozen daiquiri in a seductive and comfortable setting.
