★★★★★ 5.0 Patrick Tierney · Feb 2026

Rita's Mexican Restaurant in Hampstead, NH for a couple tacos, a burrito, tequila, beer & a massive margarita. I had been feeling Mexican food & margaritas for awhile & wanted to find a new spot I had never been yet. So when this hole in the wall popped up on Google & was 20min or so away with a tequila bar, it was like it was meant to be. I had been eating to many burgers so I figured I'd mix it up & cross the border down south. The place was bumping when I arrived & every table was taken up in the lounge, but I was able to score a couple seats at the very end of the bar. There was only one bartender running the entire restaurant since somebody called out she said, but she still kept her composure & grabbed our drinks & food without much delay with a ton on her plate. I scooped a beer to

Rita’s Mexican Restaurant in Hampstead, NH is an excellent spot for great food and drinks. The food is fresh, flavorful, and well prepared, with generous portions and plenty of options to choose from. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The margaritas are especially great—well balanced, refreshing, and the perfect complement to the meal. Overall, it’s a consistently enjoyable experience and a place I’d highly recommend.

We went for two dollar taco night and did not disappoint. We also had a couple appetizers, but the tacos were very full. I have hardshell and soft shell, beef and chicken. Both are delicious but I like the beef better. There is only a wait because we had such a big party.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jessica (Jessie) · Oct 2025

I got here at 5:50 I immediately was asked what I wanted to drink I ordered my food at the same time by 628 my food was nowhere to be seen 10 minutes later it showed up. I was never asked if I wanted another beer nothing. I also was never asked if my food was any good. Or if I needed anything else. By 6:50 my food was done. And I was talking to a local we were both going to have one more drink. But by 7: 10 when we had still not been asked we asked if we could get checks. It's now 7:35 and I'm only now leaving. The food was good the bartender pays attention only to her regulars.

Amazing!!!! Food, and service was amazing! I had been to little Mexico and was sad when they closed. This place the food takes a bit to gwt to your table because they need time to cook it and its great so its worth the wait.
