Food was a disappointment but the friendly staff with a good sense of humor almost made up for it. Margaritas were also sub-par but as a large group we still had a good time. read more

Amazing Food and Margs Great local spot. Consistently good. Anything smothered with cheese on top, I'm in!

I ordered some food for me and my woman and tbh gang it was some abysmal bs half assed Mexican food. A Mexican food place is only as good as their rice and beans. I suggest checking out Agave in Newburyport as I would say this is their strength. Their rice and beans is so good I bring it home and eat it the next day. I wouldn't even walk out of the restaurant with your stuff. Under seasoned, bland, not good quality all around. Salsa wasn't bad tho. But also they don't follow directions very well and couldn't get my woman's order correct. You're better off eating your own poop directly out of your butt. read more

La Catrina - Poop - Mexican Near Me - Newmarket, New Hampshire

Newmarket's best kept secret! Their juice-only (no powdery mixes) margaritas are the freshest you can get anywhere in NH. Timely, considerate service, their family-recipe fresh food was delicious and definitely NOT chain-restaurant Mexican. Though it's a smaller restaurant, it doesn't feel crowded. Three in our party of four were first-time customers and all three said they'll be back! read more

Food is great and very fresh! Great atmosphere and any margaritas.. The queso with sausage is so good!

I love guac. I'm a big fan of people that make it right. Not so much for people who substitute green peas to cheap out on production costs. Nor a fan of deceptive food. Cool fact, I've got an in at UNH that can break it down, but if you're a legit proprietor, you won't need that. I know times are tough. We're all in it together. But don't f**k your neighbors. read more

Almost Mexican. Or, at least as close as you can get here. This is the real thing and it's in the perfect place in the ideal town of Newmarket. Once upon a time just a one horse town until that multitude of amazing places that put it on the map. Weekday weeknight weekend. It doesn't matter because this place is always busy and that says just about everything, doesn't it? There are only a couple things that could be considered detractors. The service is a bit too matter of fact for me and the place is too small. On top of that it's loud and I'm talking like 80 decibels loud. Loud enough to make it difficult to converse with your table mate. There's only one booth with the rest of the seating being high-tops. The fish tacos are excellent though I think a bit short on ingredients. 3 tacos with sides of refried beans and rice. Top it of with a Dos XX Amber and there ya have. In the end the food is worth the detractors and recommended. read more

La Catrina - Bar area - Mexican Near Me - Newmarket, New Hampshire

We love this place. It's owned and run by a family originally from Mexico, so I'm guessing the food is pretty authentic. The margaritas are fabulous, the people are kind, the food is delicious and the price is very reasonable. Couldn't ask for more! read more

We happened to be in the area and decided to try this place out. We were not disappointed. The service was great, the food was amazing, and the portions were that we took home a small amount of leftovers. I highly recommend coming here. If I lived closer I'd be a regular customer. read more

I've been here several times, tried most of the dishes, and I have never been disappointed. Always fresh, perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked, beautiful presentation. They take pride in everything they do and it shows. There is no reason a tiny NH town should have authentic Mexican food that is THIS GOOD! read more

Excellent, ate the whole thing. Loved it. So hospitable and accommodating. Will definitely be back! read more

We probably come here once a week at this point! Service is always with a smile and even when they are busy it is worth the wait! Happy hour at the bar in cocktails and beer 4-6 pm is half priced drinks which are already very reasonably priced. Our total for 2 for dinner on Friday with two drinks was under $40! Come on your birthday and they will sing and dance and bring you churros and a tequila shot! read more

La Catrina - HUGE Burrito Cochinita Pibil - absolutely the best deal in town. - Mexican Near Me - Newmarket, New Hampshire

Just ordered door dash form here. Yes, the dasher was slow. However, lime juice is a key ingredient to guacamole. Lime juice is acidic and acid with tin foil does not mix. Also, foil is retains heat. Guacamole should not be a blackish brown color. Then, there was no sauce on my cold fried wings with limpy salad underneath. Maybe a garnish I guess? Hot wings on top of cold salad in the car for an extended period of time....appetizing?! This food is not fit for my dogs! read more

Dear Diary, It's been 48 hours since we ate at LaCatrina and I've finally been able to leave the bathroom. 24 hours ago, I thought the house was spinning wizard of oz style, and then I saw a bright light and dead relatives trying to get me to follow them into the abyss! Luckily, my mother broke down the door, gave me several bottles of water and nana and grandpa retreated into the light. I'll live to see another fajita after all. NOT TODAY, NANA! Three stars for the pina colada. read more

Food is great! Shrimp with avocado in a tasty garlic sauce (mojo) on flavored rice. Husband very happy with burrito chile verde. Nice music. Pleasant server. Expansive menu, much to choose from. Chilled beer glasses! Very reasonable prices. Good cooks! We'll be back. I have short legs so don't like high chairs so a low table for 2 would be nice. read more

Always great meal.... Great service and margaritas.... The people are nice and friendly.. all around great!!

Food was great. Service was lacking. Asked multi times to NOT have the shell on taco salad to go, she kept insisting there are no chips, I quit arguing. It came in the shell, guy at front just shrugged and said we'll yea it's in a shell... umm is everyone ok over there expensive for soggy food just wanted the shell on the side couldn't get them to understand or take accountability like hellloooo is anyone in there. read more

This is the real deal! It's authentic Mexican and absolutely delicious!! The refried beans are incredible - the perfect texture, the perfect flavor. I can't believe how good this place is! Go here immediately!! read more

Wish I could do half stars, because this is a 4.5 star review. We ended up here as our second choice, and it was certainly worthy of top-billing. We were greeted upon entry and told to sit where we pleased. We promptly had bar service (menus, drink order) and were made to feel very much at home. Our server smiled brightly and made us feel welcome (she wore a mask, but that did not diminish the smile -- a lost art in service!). Beverages were served quickly (though we were also afforded more time if we wanted it). We placed an appetizer order which was put in and we were served it before our main order taken (as it should be, IMHO). We never felt rushed, though all part of our order came quickly. The nachos were excellent. I'd say the food was a solid four stars, the service five. We placed our main order (fajitas for my wife, simple tacos for me). If there IS a criticism, they may serve TOO MUCH food. We both got two meals out of the order (which only totaled $50 for app, two entries, and beverages). The decor is interesting. While there is the wear-and-tear of a small town bar, it's very clean. The flavor of the food was absolutely delightful. Presentation was rustic, but satisfactory. We WILL be coming back. Like to stress one last time, friendly, competent service. There were locals/regulars who came in and were acknowledged, but we were never made to feel like the interloper (*we* felt like regulars). Maybe I'm overstressing that, but at this point in the game (we're in our early 50s) it matters. Try this place -- you will NOT be disappointed. read more

Great food and prices went in mid afternoon. Nice and quiet. Thank you. Make a reservation on weekends or evenings..

Guy who ran our food said "for the drunk guy" in Spanish to my boyfriend after he thanked him for his food, not knowing that my boyfriend speaks Spanish and hadn't even taken a sip of his first drink of the night. Incredibly rude and disrespectful. Food tasted fine but I woke up at 2 am to vomit and haven't stopped since. Save yourself the trip read more

Hidden gem. A+ food and service! Large margaritas that are worth the price. Fresh tasty tacos. Tortilla soup is so good!

A dissappointment. Just came for a drink and a snack. Greasy chips, ok salsa, spinach was not chopped and mixed in spinach dip. Margaritas ok so I would skip those place in favor of other more higher rated places. Espically with minimal atmosphere read more

Excellent lunch today! I had the Mexicanas enchiladas (chicken enchiladas) and my wife had tacos Al Pastor ( shredded pork). Both were great and very well seasoned the tacos had a nice spice on the back end. Healthy portions and friendly quick service. As good as I've had in NH. If this place had a bit of ambiance I'd give it 5 stars but you get what you get in Newmarket. read more

The fajitas are great, hot and delicious. The beer and tequila selection is good, too. The salsa, made fresh is amazing and so is the guacamole. I love this place. read more

The short is good food that took almost an hour to get. We sat right away and were quickly greeted my our server who took drink orders. The place quickly filled with only 1 server and a bartender. Then it went downhill. Waiting almost an hour for Mexican food was a bit ridiculous. The food was good so we will give the place one more shot before writing it off. read more

THE BEST Mexican in the area; it's not even close. Get the pineapple fajitas or any of the tacos and you won't be disappointed.

I realize I do not post pictures of my dinner, apps, or drink's, but my post is about experience after so I can be honest. I have been in this area off and on for 8 years plus and visited 4 or 5 times and have to share an experience you will not be disappointed! The food is very authentic, great portions, drinks are amazing and for all this great on your wallet. This is a must visit for all of us thinking budget and still get quality and amazing experience. Vivian was my server this time and she was awesome, but everyone here including cooks are attentive and exceptional. Get a 4 star Mexican restaurant experience with a budget of our times read more

the food is mediocre if you want good mexican go to massachusetts. the inside is super clean and the staff are always nice and the food is affordable. so i guess for the price the quality is matching it. read more

Wound up stumbling upon this place after our original lunch plan down the street fell through. Food was great, quesadillas were huge and were super cheesy, which is how I like them. We were the only people there and the waitress was awesome. I don't typically jump to review places on Yelp, but the fact that we showed up on a whim and they knocked it out of the park made me want to tell the world. read more

So excited that we have a fab Mexican restaurant in Newmarket to indulge our craving for legit margs and guac. The service is fab and friendly. Guac a bit heavy on the onion and light on cilantro and lime to be perfect. Chips are a great balance of flour corn and crisp. Not Tex mex but fab. Can't wait to come back read more

La Catrina - Holy heck a fab margarita in New England! - Mexican Near Me - Newmarket, New Hampshire

The food is great the service is good love the atmosphere great drinks and well priced

This wonderful Mexican restaurant is a gem in the small town of Newmarket, NH. The tacos are done street style, the salsa is fresh and delicious, and the margaritas are the nectar of the Gods... The staff is friendly and are constantly ensuring you are all set and always get the order right. Prices are more than fair and you will leave happy and full. read more

Excellent all around!!! Close your eyes and you are In Mexico and or chicago at 26th and California ace!!!

Ordered online and waited nearly an hour for my order, when it was randomly canceled without explanation. Do not recommend.

Food and margaritas are great. In my opinion the best Mexican food in the area. A hidden little gem in Newmarket.

Best Latin food I've had in New England. Specifically love the enchiladas.

Best Mexican food around. Fresh and delicious with friendly staff. Their margaritas are amazing, too. Highly recommended!

The salsa was good. But that's where the good ends. The service is awful... sat at the bar which was not full. 10 minutes later an expressionless bartender takes a drink order. No hello, no greeting, nothing. 10 minutes later our drinks are not started. After 20 minutes at the bar having had some chips and salsa we left. She may be the worst bartender/server ever. No personality, no smile, nothing. read more

Fast and friendly service with great food and cool wallpaper for a normal amount of money. What more could you want from a dining experience? read more
