I rarely give a full five stars, but for this review I'm going to hold my criticisms to myself and focus on the positives. The food was good. The service and drinks was outstanding going beyond to earn full stars. My son and I had the birria. Delicious. The consume was sorta thickened to stick more to the taco; I enjoyed this upgrade. I had a marg and the wife a mango marg for mom's day. My marg was very well made. But then I had a sip of her mango. WOW! Bar keeper had the perfect mix of everything here. Not too sweet at all, but an almost layered mango sour, lime uptick, quality agave tequila, and a salty tagin rim to balance it all to a perfect drink. Had to order one for myself to doublecheck ;) Well done! Every server involved provided not just great service , but the right service. Great attention to details, quick with chips and salsa, drink suggestions, hot food, refills, clearing, extras like Mother's Day dessert and meal cap tequila. Bueno!! read more

Casa Maria is such a cute little restaurant in Amesbury. They had a good sized drink menu and plenty of mojito options! I ordered the strawberry mojito and the birria tacos with no cilantro. The taco was good, but a little too spicy for my liking (although there was no mention of spiciness on the menu). I would come back and try their quesadillas. read more

This is an authentic Mexican restaurant in the heard of Amesbury city. Foods are very good. The restaurant is very clean and has Mexican vibe. If u like stiff drinks, this is the place. We ordered spicy habenero margarita -so good! So spicy- and pina picante -this one is just ok- and Unfortunately, the flan that we expect awesome its a let down. But we will be back! read more

I was disappointed. When I go for Mexican food and drink, I usually will get two margaritas. This place, I had four because the drinks were so weak. I sat at the bar with a friend of mine and watched the bartender with his weak pours. The street tacos were dry and little meat on them. It's too bad cuz I really wanted to like this place read more

Decor is beautiful and AC is cold. That's where the good stuff ends. The service was slow and we were just one of two parties. The street corn was tasty but was served ice cold. Tacos were just average. There were no hot sauces on the tables. We asked for hot sauce and waited a while and got a small bowl. They don't offer bottles of hot sauce. No drink refills were offered even though my soda was $3,75 and empty for 10 minutes. The salsa is watery and has no spice. It's heavy on cilantro, which I don't mind. The bathroom was dirty and neglected. read more

Bugs. Bugs. Bugs. We didnt notice at first. Until our food arrived. Then they left the wall next to us to swarm. Looked like giant fruit flies. Seated 1st booth - not near kitchen. Can only imagine what's in the kitchen. Reported to hostess as went by, watched her go talk to manager. Neither approached us. Will not he back. Paid our bill and ran out. read more

After trying a couple weeks ago we called ahead tonight to check on the wait, luckily we timed it right and were able to get right in! Margaritas were delicious, good options for kids as well! Chips, salsa, guacamole and cheese dip were perfect while we waited for our dinners. Kids got the chicken fingers, which not gonna lie we will come back and sit at the bar and have those and margaritas!! So good! Street tacos and mole burrito were both awesome! read more

We have had multiple delicious meals & tasty margaritas at Casa Maria. The owner Ramon, could not be more of a gentleman; his wait staff too. The service is great with a friendly atmosphere. They just catered our party at home for 25. Our guests were impressed. Ramon himself delivered our food with delicious beans, tacos galore and yummy guacamole and salsa. read more

We sat at the bar tonight and had their wings with ranch dressing. We split them along with a beer and a glass of white wine. The wings were delicious. One minor point was they shouldn't have bothered with the celery as it was terrible. The service was good but not overly friendly which was ok. They offer salsa and chips, for me, the salsa was perfect but if you're looking for spicy this wasn't it. We would definitely return. I also loved the Day of the Dead decorations. Very fun! read more

Eat here! Authentic Mexican Food! Delicious!! A restaurant, but seemingly so much more like a family. Walking in, is a welcoming experience, from the warmth of the hostess's smile to gentle lighting emanating around the bar and opposite dining tables, leading to a larger, quieter, open area for dining overlooking the Pow Wow river. It is here I enjoyed an authentic Mexican delicately prepared Fried Red Snapper Fish Washinango ( Huachinango )! It's an experience! read more

Went today and was blown away! Great service, excellent food! Dios mio - the tortilla soup - que deliciosa!!! Bartender/server was so kind and generous- Feliz Navidad!! We'll definitely be back - por supuesto! read more

We have been going to Casa Maria since they opened. The service and quality of food was better in the first several months they were opened. We always get a pitcher of margaritas and then order our food. The pitcher of margaritas isn't worth the $60 we paid. The food is inconsistent and the portions have varied drastically. The most disappointing part of going to Casa Maria is that the owner, who is there most of the time, doesn't take initiative to fix any issues. He doesn't greet you when you go to his restaurant. I hope the ownership can improve this restaurant. read more

The food is good. From chips and salsa on the table to entrees. We had beef taco salad and chicken fajita burrito. Burrito was large and delish. I chose beer to drink because the cocktails ,including margs, are small and weak for the price. read more

While their vibe, attentive staff, and drinks were great, all the food was subpar by most Mexican standards (including Chipotle). The Guac starter was very small and had the tell-tale "sheen" of mass produced guacamole (although I hope not). Chips and salsa were very average and also seemed to be packaged products. Shrimp enchiladas were fresh but just some spiced shrimp wrapped in a flour tortilla with sauce toppings which were too spicy for my wife and without any forewarning. The accompanying rice gave a bland instant rice vibe, and the refried beans were average (I make them at home, so I know). A good, large, and diverse menu with reasonable prices. My wife reports the house margarita being tasty. All in all a good place for drinks and if you aren't much of a foodie or have a preference for more authentic Mexican food. And sorry to pull down the ratings for what is a welcome addition to the burgeoning Amesbury restaurant scene. Time and more reviews will tell the tale, and we wish Casa Maria the best of luck as they settle in and evolve. read more

Casa Maria Tacos & Tequila opened in Amesbury very recently in the former SKY HI Kitchen + Bar space, adding another Mexican restaurant and bar to the local dining scene. The space is fairly cozy with the long bar with seats and 6 booths in the front section and a back area with additional tables and booths. The walls have plenty of festive decorations. Ever since they opened, the place has been very busy during dinner rush with every seat at the bar occupied and 20 minute+ waits to be seated. I stopped by Casa Maria for dinner very recently. When I arrived, the place was packed with lots of folks waiting to be seated and every seat at the bar occupied. I waited for about 12 minutes before a seat at the bar became available. Complementary chips and salsa were also brought over, which were thin crunchy chips and a mild tomato salsa. One of the bartenders arrived and offered a drink (I got an ice water) and promptly placed my food order for the #7 Combo: 1 Taco, 1 Rellano, 1 Tamale with rice and refried beans ($15.99 plus tax). My entree was served 13 minutes later, which was served on a big hot plate, a very good portion of food. Taco was filled with moist shredded chicken, pico de gallo, lettuce, shredded cheese in a crunchy fried tortilla shell. The rellano was very soft and filled with melted cheeses in a folded pepper and topped with red sauce and melted cheese. The pork tamale was soft and dense topped with red sauce and melted cheese. The Mexican rice and refried beans with melted cheese were standard sides. I also took a peek at the dessert menu, which offered churros, fried ice cream and flan. The couple next to me ordered churros and fried ice cream which looked pretty average, so I skipped dessert and got the check which came out to $17.58 with tax and $0.59 overhead charge and before tip. Overall, the food I ordered was very good abd very filling to eat. The gentleman next to me ordered the Washinango, which was an IG worthy whole red snapper (deep fried) served with rice and beans. I would definitely return here once the newness goes away. read more

Love this cute little spot!! Amazing food! Friendly staff!! Did I mention the generous drinks! read more

Excellent food and fast delivery. We have loved everything we have tried here! Five stars!

Food is really flavorful. They're plentiful in size. I've had them delivered with DDash for a fee. The food has been well packed. I'm too close to weigh in on how it holds up for deliveries that are farther away. As for the restaurant, it is pretty steady with business. They are a newer restaurant in town and have developed a good reputation for their food and service. read more

This was our first experience with Casa Maria. We came on a Monday at 5:30pm and appreciated that they were open when most restaurants were closed. The positives of our experience were that we thought the food was good, the rice was good, the margarita was good, the service was good and attentive, the menu had a good variety, and the prices were reasonable. We hope they will be successful and offer these suggestions and observations to management. There was a musty smell in the restaurant that hits you right away, which was not appetizing. The decor was interesting. However, the staff service area that was visible beyond the bar was very messy and dirty, again, not appetizing. Even though it was early and there weren't many customers, it was very loud. The wait staff were actually shouting to each other across the space which reverberates around the walls which amplified the noise and made it hard for customers to have a conversation. I can't imagine how loud it would be when busy. The early dinner crowd has different expectations than the Friday night bar crowd. Some sound dampening elements in the space and a staff that is sensitive to not making unnecessary noise would make for a more desirable experience during the off-hours. Hope that helps. read more

Loved it! Best birria tacos. Margaritas were great too. Has been our go-to spot to bring our 2 year old

Recently opened in downtown Amesbury. Very convenient hours. Great menu with a number of vegetarian options. I've been twice and the service was fast and attentive. Nice selection of margaritas. Food could be a little spicier for me. Overall a nice new option. read more

We are from San Diego, CA where authentic Mexican food is on every corner - we have been here twice in our visit and loved it!! It's authentic and the best east coast Mexican food. Great margaritas, atmosphere is fun and the service is amazing! Highly recommend! read more

Not bad. Friendly staff. Nothing fancy here, and in return got a decent meal. And they played authentic Mexican music the entire time

We love having a local spot for Mexican food with really good Margaritas, always great service and decent food. You can't go wrong with the Top Shelf Margarita. I get it with Don Julio, no salt. Goes great with a sizzling well-portioned skillet of steak fajitas. The house salsa is great, aromatic with fresh cilantro. Comfortable relaxed atmosphere. We are moving and will miss our regular dinners here. Thanks for the good times! read more

Wow!! Absolutely fabulous new restaurant in downtown Amesbury! The food, service, margaritas...all so delicious !! Our waitress named Jordan Ann was fabulous and made us feel so loved! Thank you for bringing such fresh Mexican food with such friendly service to Amesbury!! Can't wait to go back!! read more

Great new addition to Amesbury. Been 5 or 6 times and brought friends and family. The last few times, the service is a bit lacking at the bar. Maybe no cell phones for bartenders while working. read more

Amazing margaritas, service and food! When the bartender saw I was going through margaritas pretty fast, he brought a bigger one! I highly recommend this place! Cozy atmosphere too. read more

We love this spot. I am from Colorado and I haven't had the best of luck here in New England in regards to Mexican food. This place knocks it out of the park and they are right here local which is freaking awesome. I have missed good Mexican food. I'm so glad they're here. read more

Food is delicious-very impressed Staff is excellent and efficient. I will make an effort to return despite not living anywhere close. read more

My friend and I came out on 4/12 Friday at 5:30. We were celebrating being smoke free for a year. We love Mexican so we were very excited to get the flights of margaritas that we saw advertised. We waited about 15 minutes to be seated. We sat and were given chips and salsa. They must make their own because the chips were overcooked and definitely on the verge of being burnt. We waited about 10 minutes for someone to come over to take our drink order. We finally stopped someone to ask who our server was. The gentleman did not know we were his table. We got our drink order in. 2 flights of margaritas. The margaritas get to the table. We tried each one and they were ok. There was one that that chile in it and it was very spicy. My friend was surprised. I tried hers and it was made very differently. Way less chile. We ordered the cheese dip, chicken and steak fajitas, chicken quesadilla & 2 tacos. We were going to try everything. The fajitas came out not sizzling. My first bite was overwhelmingly peppery. I maybe ate a couple bites more and set it aside. The ground beef tacos were flavorless and super oily. When I took a bite the other side shot forth a forceful oil stream. Took one bite and wouldn't take another. The quesadilla was super greasy and just not good. The best part was the cheese dip and burnt chips. We spent about $100 and left hungry. It is early days of the restaurant. Maybe they'll get better. I'm not in a rush to go back. The decor is delightful! read more

A welcome addition to Amesbury! I love the Chicken Flautas and the Cielito Lindo to drink. They keep us coming back!

The service was speedy, got our drinks very quick. The chips tasted like crackers and were very overcooked. They put more chips and salsa down without asking us if we wanted more. Our meals were cold. The shrimp in the quesadilla was very overcooked, it seemed like there was cheddar cheese in it, it was very thin cheese and the quesadilla just slid apart--didn't stay together. read more

I ordered the street tacos Al pastor. It came with black beans on the side and chips. The tacos were amazing. The meat tasted like real Al pastor meat. I asked for hot sauce and it was too spicy for me, but delicious. The chips were great. Salsa was very tasty. The black beans were so delish. Overall I give it 5 starts. read more

I was hesitantly excited when I saw that a new Mexican restaurant was coming to Amesbury and after getting take out tonight I am so glad it has! Not only was the food beautifully packaged in long foil dishes, but they also gave us a bag of chips and salsa which was delightful! Both burritos were delicious and filling. The space is small but feels much larger due to the lighting and atmosphere - my wife and I are both looking forward to seeing if they will offer outdoor seating once the weather warms up. read more

Absolutely INCREDIBLE food. My husband and I ordered takeout tonight, and we were hesitant because this place just recently opened. We've been DESPERATE for good Mexican food since we moved to Amesbury a few years ago, and this place ABSOLUTELY delivers. The first test for me is always the packaging a takeout Mexican place decides to go with, and their burritos came beautifully packed in long casserole-style foil dishes with plastic lids, the burrito itself loaded with sauce, cheese, guacamole; absolutely fantastic presentation. Bonus points for chips and salsa included with the takeout! The actual food itself was SO good. We got a Macho Burrito and a Carnitas Burrito - both were absolutely amazing. INCREDIBLY excited for some PHENOMENAL Mexican food so close to home! A great addition Amesbury's downtown! Can't wait to try their Margaritas!! read more
