Great spot! I was craving some basic Mexican food and it hit the spot. I sat at the bar and received great and friendly service. The chips and salsa were really good. Tried the margarita flight, good value and fun to try different flavors. I was in the mood for some hard shell beef tacos and theirs were perfect. Overall the watermelon margarita with the tajin rim and whatever spicy tequila they used, was my favorite. Cute atmosphere and after 530 on a Saturday evening, it was pretty packed. I’ll definitely be back!

Sydney from this location of Margarita’s had me near tears (in a good way). I have had so many restaurant experiences that have just been so bad recently. I went to an Applebees and sat at a table for an hour before anyone offered me water, and when they did it was because my boyfriend went up to the bar and asked—fast forward and they never brought out our entrees and our appetizer didn’t seem to be heated up. Anyway, on to Syndey at Margaritas. I wish I had enough money to leave a 100% or higher tip. She was so kind and attentive to our needs, and other employees that approached her. She asked us questions about the drinks we ordered (which was our favorite), and how our food was, and listened for the answer. At every point as our meal progressed she checked in to make sure we had every

This is a fun place and clearly, margaritas is what people order and enjoy. I had a melon frozen margarita and it was quite delicious. I also their fish tacos which was quite different than what I’ve had at home and in California, as they use crushed tortilla chips for the batter. It’s much crunchier than is typical yet I really liked it. Last, the service was great - friendly and quick.

We come every weekend to see Amber and Veronica. Best bartenders around. They remember my drink order ever time and are very friendly!!!

I've been to quite a few Margaritas over the years and tonight was one of the best experiences. The portions were huge, the drinks were tasty, and the server Emma was fantastic. We had a large & rowdy group with quite a few dietary restrictions and she handled us with patience and humor.
