After Covid, I was and still am highly disappointed by the quality of food at most restaurants, but La Margarita has maintained the highest quality of meat, vegetables, and other foods. read more

Food good Service hmm it sucks haha ... waitress / waiters aren't warm and welcoming Ambience is fine nothing special read more

Not a bad experience! The staff (Ana in particular) were so friendly and helpful. I tried the street tacos (carne asada) which were excellent and had a barbacoa taco. I loved the street tacos the best! We had a bit of a snafu with my friend's order but it was cleared up nicely. Pro Tip: They only serve the barbacoa taco Saturday and Sundays for brunch. 8/10 Tacos read more

Fast and friendly service. Two bartenders on duty during my visit both checked frequently. Margarita was very tasty and not overly sugary. The half order of the chicken quesadillas was a meal by itself... Cannot even imagine what a full order would look like Chips were crispy and it went well with the salsa that had lots of flavor impact just the right amount of punch First time I had dinedhere sitting at the bar but it was a good visit and I will return They do have some bar specials on some of the food items... A little bit small or portion, but I would imagine still has the same great flavor The TVs are not positioned particularly well, but hey, the food and drink make up for it read more

I went here for lunch today with my son. Actually, it was still the a.m., I found out that this place opens at 10 o'clock! Yay me! I got my traditional chicken enchiladas with no cheese and my son got crunchy tacos also with no cheese. We got a big bowl of chunky guacamole. That was amazing! Their chips are so good. They make their own tortillas! They have lunch specials Monday through Friday. Upon entering the restaurant, we were seated promptly, which is nice and we requested our favorite booth and they had no problem accommodating that request. Our server was prompt and kind. Our food was served quickly and just the right temperature. One thing that was new to me today is that I was offered to join a rewards club! All I had to do was write my phone number at the bottom of the ticket and now I am earning points, a.k.a. money to buy food at this restaurant. I absolutely love that! I've put a snip of the rewards site with this review, Should you want to join! I can't say enough nice things about this restaurant. It is my favorite place to go for lunch with my son. I'm sure you will. Love it too! read more

La Margarita Restaurante - Rewards earned with each visit! - Mexican Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

The fajitas were AMAZING!!!!!!!! Both the steak and chicken were super juicy and tender. It stayed hot throughout our meal as well, without it being 'burn your tongue' hot. I also go the Crema Enchiladas. They were good, but the fajitas were the showstopper. The Mangonada margarita with chamoy and it was good! My mother got the pineapple mojito and it was fantastic. Our food came out super quick. It even came out before the drinks! read more

Excellent service! The beef fajitas were amazing as usual. The tortillas and accompaniments were great as usual. Everything here is consistent. The only thing I would change is a little more flavor in the rice and beans. They're a bit of an afterthought. Still enjoyed everything! read more

We picked this place at a whim on our last day of Christmas in Round Rock. It had fun décor and of course Christmas decorations up throughout from a tree to fake lights outside, see pictures. We arrived not long after it opened for the day so it was not crowded or busy. Our host and our sever were both very nice and the sever was friendly and fast. We started with a Mexican Martini and a small meltdown rita. Shana got coffee too as well as chips and queso with taco meat. The drinks were good, not weak or strong but tasty and the queso was pretty good. The chips were warm which given some thought is rare. Shana got the La Margarita Special and I got chicken fajitas for one. It is usually my go to the first time we try a Mexican food restaurant. They were very good, I was impressed. The tortillas were great and the chicken was flavorful and not tough. Both of which has happened elsewhere, I really enjoyed my meal. SHANA SAYS: The food was solid! I got a Mexican Martini that was super good! Queso was good Salsa was good Chips were food Good Also food Service was great It was our last meal in Round Rock for this staycation and we ended on a good one. Then we were headed back to home and real life so glad we had so much good food on this trip and finished up with a filling and good meal with good service. read more

THE BEST Tex-Mex in Central Texas HANDS DOWN!!! Been going here my entire life and now that I've moved away, I still think about it every single day. My first stop on the way home from the airport every time I visit. Staff is amazing, the vibes are always great. Chips and salsa is the best I've ever had, seriously. I miss it every single day of my life. Tortillas are made in house and fresh. If you're visiting central texas and looking for the best tex-mex, THIS IS IT!!! read more

The food here is really top notch. I order regularly from this place that the street tacos and enchiladas are amazing. The portions are awesome. Awesome and the salsa are fresh. Certainly recommend this for everyone in round rock read more

Was too salty.Not just a little salty but so salty you couldn't eat it. Managers response was Well no one else has complained." Paid with a hundred dollar bill, recived 20 dollars in fives, 60 dollars in one dollar bills. read more

Came here for an earlier Saturday dinner a couple weeks ago. My boyfriend and I each ordered a margarita- me a large house frozen and him a regular mango frozen. When our drinks came- I got a small rocks and him a small regular. It took forever for me to flag the waiter down and explain that our drinks were entirely wrong, and he kept insisting it was not and didn't seem to understand what I wanted to order. We then asked for a few more minutes to order and then...crickets. There were a couple people at the bar the waiter knew and for the rest of the night it was pretty much impossible to get him to pay us any attention. Then to top it off- he left the incorrect drinks on the bill! Service was severely lacking. We ordered chips and queso, my boyfriend got one of the combination platters and I got the chile relleño. Both plates were MASSIVE in terms of person. I really enjoyed my chile- the rice was not hot and kinda hard and unseasoned. My boyfriend said he enjoyed his. There are dozens of Mexican places like this in the greater Austin area and I've had better experiences and food at a lot so, it'll take a lot for me to return. read more

La Margarita Restaurante - Chile relleno - Mexican Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Great tex-mex place, I recommend the cheese enchiladas, tacos al carbon, and flautas.

My wife and I tried this place this evening. I can only say "Don't go there if you want good food". No flavor in the chicken or shrimp fajitas! The queso tastes like velveeta. . Salsa is horrible. Rice and beans taste like they came out of a box and can. Pricing is way too high. You are better off finding a Taco Bell and I don't recommend that either. Most of the wait staff has a hard time with english. The only thing that was good was the chips. If that is what you are coming in for, you won't be disappointed. Again....do not enter this place!!!!!! read more

Great food! Good prices! Great service! What more can you really expect. The facility is older but has a charming layout. It is large enough for parties with plenty of parking. There is a bar and even outdoor dining. I had the La Margarita Salad. It was fresh, and the fajita chicken was nicely spiced. Delicious! There are many other options on the menu that I expect are just as delicious. Merry Christmas! read more

The beef fajitas were extremely delicious especially for the value. The food also came out super fast and accurate. I was surprised that this place didn't have better ratings because, service, food, and drinks were all delicious. It's nothing super fancy, but a casual place we will frequent! read more

By far the tenderest beef fajitas I've ever had service was outstanding very friendly and encouraging to try new things

Love the 2 for one Monday fajita special! It's sooooo good. It's a lot of food and high quality.

Great location, and they know the location us what keeps them afloat. Food is slightly below average for Tex-mex. I drive by the restaurant almost daily... and this thought constantly goes through my head... "wish their food didn't suck!" Perhaps they will see this and stop operating for a mere profit and improve the menu. read more

I have been eating here since 1985. It is great place for large or smaller parties. My opinion they have the best flour tortillas in central Texas. Fajitas beef can't be beat. Service what you want when you want it. If you haven't been here the forget south Austin frankly forget Austin period. Get over here, just don't take my seat read more

Stopped by here for dinner and was glad we did. This is a clean place with a nice ambience and great customer service. The food is really good here also. I had my usual "go to" dish, Cheese Enchiladas with Green sauce. The green sauce was tangy and fresh. The enchiladas warm, cheesy and gooey yummy yum. The Hubby had the Street tacos without Cilantro - which they left out as asked. He enjoyed these a lot. There was a green sauce that came out with them that was really delicious. The rice and beans were good. The chips and salsa fresh. The service was good. We will be back. read more

Absolutely a must try establishment. Very nice interior and our waiter was attentive. My man crush couldn't decide between the shrimp tacos or fish tacos. He asked if he could get one of each and that request was allowed. Both tacos were so good! My sister ordered the caldo de res. I asked if they had caldo de pollo and they did not. Bummer. I ordered the caldo de res and it was very good!! Lots of chunky veggies. My bowl definitely had more meat than my sister's. I ended up giving her some of my meat as I had a lot. Caldo came with rice which was yummy. Chips and salsa were good but I prefer a tad more heat in my salsa. We plan on going again to try the margaritas! I wish they had sopapillas as a dessert choice but what they offered sounded good. We were just too full to try anything. read more

We were part of a large group. The food and service was outstanding. La Margarita is a great restaurant !

Haven't been here in years as it has had its ups and downs. Decided to try with a small group after church last Sunday. We were all pleasantly surprised at how good and fresh food was. Our group had everything from pancakes to fajitas. The homemade tortillas were delicious! Glad to see this place is back on their A game. Will return for sure! read more

I was invited here for a birthday dinner. I was not excited because I had been here before and was not impressed! But this time was quite the opposite. So much so that I came back two days later! I order the shrimp fajitas and an Al pastor tacos. I came back n ordered an Al pastor quesadilla which was not even on the menu but they happily. Made it for me! Service, price and ambiance was normal. I will be back soon read more

Decent Tex Mex for a decent price. They serve huge portions here as well as complimentary chips and salsa. So you're definitely leaving here stuffed to the gills. My only complaint is that some dishes are a little bland, but then some dishes are extremely salty. I've tried out the burritos, enchiladas, Chile relleno, Changa, chalupa, and even the kid's burgers. Everything is more than edible, but I think that due to the large menu and very large occupancy rate, the food is never consistent. Overall, because of the fair pricing, huge portions, and good service, it's still worth visiting. read more

The food is overall good as is the service. The issue is they have raised their prices. We spent $100 on three meals, appetizer and three drinks. Not sure we got our moneys worth, very little value for what was paid. read more

Reviewing after first visit. After years of driving by we finally stopped in to check it out. It's a locally owned restaurant not a chain. Tried their Saturday brunch. The hubs had the fajita and eggs plate. Lots of food! I ordered the Barbacoa taco and it was delicious! We washed it down with a Bloody Mary & a tequila sunrise. The service was excellent so 5 stars. See pics. read more

I ordered a chilie relleno It was loaded with white cheese and cold shredded chicken. When I cut into it, I could smell it. I almost threw up on the plate. I had to get to my vehicle as quick as possible to get some Tums for the heartburn that the margaritas caused. This place just isn't very good. read more

I moved to Texas 3 years ago and have been searching high and low for good Mexican food and a good Margarita. I found both at this restaurant. I loved the salsa, not too spicy and the chips were thin, just as I like them. Food was good. Not covered in cheese like so many places. The Margaritas were very good. Although this place is about a 35 minute drive I will be back. read more

One of the worst Tex Mex experiences I've had in a while. My friend and I went last night and were the only young Hispanic/Latino people in the room other than the servers, which should have been the first sign to run lol. We asked to be sat at a booth instead of a table. We waited a while and a waitress never came to greet us. There was an older couple that had been sat at their table after us who one waitress was going to greet first. The waitress's name was Jessica E, according to my receipt. We had to get her attention to let her know that we hadn't seen a waiter yet, either. When she approached the table, she said "sorry guys, I didn't know they'd double booked me." So clearly the communication between the hostesses and waitresses was lacking. But this comment was unprofessional as it makes the restaurant look bad. Instead of saying "sorry," a better approach would be "thanks so much for waiting!" We went ahead and ordered all of our food the second she got to our table. I ordered the $5.95 margarita martini special and even pointed at the happy hour menu to confirm. My friend chimed in and asked if they had any marg flavors. She said, we have mango, it costs extra, but I'll still bring it out for you guys. She made it seem like we were going to be charged the happy hour price. But at the end of the night, we were charged full price. When we asked the waitress, she got defensive and didn't remember having told us this. At that point, we just paid the higher price and called it a night lol. But yet another sign of incompetence from the staff here. The food was sub-par at best. We got the $12 loaded queso fiesta. Cheese was a bright yellow, which is a red flag. I grew up on velveeta cheese, and this tasted very similar. My friend got enchiladas with a crunchy taco on the side. That chicken was okay, but tastes like someone threw it into a crockpot and only put minimal spices lol. It was also stringy and hard to chew. My chicken fajita quesadilla tasted off and was so bad I stopped eating and we had to ask for a refund. Which we did get. But I've tasted better pre-cooked, pre-sliced frozen chicken at home. This was a completely different chicken from what my friend got, which is how we knew the difference. My chicken did not taste fresh at all. The waitress was super understanding about my quesadillas, but she did say the manager was going to come out and talk to us-- which he never did. We really were not interested in speaking with the manager, there was nothing else to say. But if you tell us the manager is coming to speak with us, again, that is what should happen lol. If it's a packed night and he can't come see us, we totally understand. Just maybe don't offer that to us LOL. I will leave the reader to come to their own conclusions as to why we were given worse service from every table around us. I'm not sure if the waitress was new, it was a lack of training, etc. I feel we remained calm and respectful to the waitress despite our experience here. But service aside, the food was still not great. I would only recommend this place for the salsa, which was delicious!! And the happy hour drinks lol. With so many other great Tex Mex spots out there, my money would have been better spent literally anywhere else, even at Taco Bell. And since I see the owner Eli comments on every post, I am looking forward to hearing from you. read more

We have been coming here for brunch for 20 years. Miya's con queso with a side of bacon and extra flour tortillas are the standard. Bloody Mary special is a bonus on a great drink. We will always be back. The lunch and dinner menu never disappoints. read more

One thing I know about myself is that I love Mexican/Tex-Mex food. No reason to ask for "to go" boxes when we're finished since I've usually cleaned my plate - until today. We had some out-of-town company and since we had already visited our 5-star choice, Blue Corn Harvest in Georgetown, we decided to try someplace new which none of us had been to previously. We should have made a repeat visit to Blue Corn or another primo spot - Mickey V's Tacos on the Georgetown Square. The two stars that I'm giving La Margarita is generous and I'm only doing this because our server was professional, prompt and courteous plus the chips & salsa were pretty good. (Had better.) It went downhill from there. Two of us selected the "Especial" from the Lunch Specials which featured two beef enchiladas, one beef taco, rice & charro beans. The beef entrees were heavily seasoned with simple chile power & salt - or at least that's how it tasted. Almost inedible. They should call it "Taco Bell on a Plate". And as we all know, TB is awful! Charro Beans were bland and frankly the ones that I pick up (canned) at HEB are better. Out of curiosity, we also ordered the Avocado Sopresa - Avocado filled with chicken & cheese then fried in a crunchy breaded shell. Nothing special. When there are so many more options in the area, it blows my mind why this place is crowded - especially on the weekends. I know they've been in business for many, many years, but I think this is a great example of a place that maybe once was really good, but has slid downhill over the years. Suggestion - I would ditch at least 1/2 of the menu. Whenever a restaurant has a menu that resembles a book and doesn't focus their efforts on the quality/taste of the food rather than the number of items they can crowd on their multi-page menu, it's usually a red flag. This definitely applies to La Margarita. No interest in returning. read more

Service is average and Lime Chicken salad that I ordered needs some flavor may be Lime flavor in itself. It feels very average grilled chicken thrown over (not so fresh) greens and few avacado slices. I did not drink any alcohol during this lunch. So can't comment on that. read more

Let me start by saying that this place has some of the best salsa that I have tried here in Austin yet. I could not stop eating it. We had a meeting their with a bunch of people and they took great care of everyone there. Really enjoyable place to have a party at. Then I got to eat their food and was blown away by that. Great service great food definetly a place to go eat and have a great drink. Highly recommend! read more

La Margarita Restaurante - Salsa is great here! - Mexican Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Went for breakfast today 05/20/23 and had breakfast tacos. I will say that the flour tortillas were good as was the service, however the food was average. We had one bacon, egg and bean; one potato, egg and bacon and one barbacoa. All on flour. The potato and egg wasn't mixed it was scrambled egg with a few potatoes on top. The bacon was greasy and limp. The refried beans were bland and runny. Barbacoa was greasy, not fresh and crunchy like it had been heated up in the microwave. If you have other choices I was skip this place at least for breakfast. Had the green and red sauce and they were not spicy at all, very mild. Coffee was good. I left the barbacoa taco unfinished if that's says anything. read more
