We have been to the location many times and while everything has always been very good from service to drinks to food. The atmosphere can vary depending on the day, time of the week. We find it much louder in the evenings, especially in the lounge area. We normally order queso with bacon(our personal favorite). We often try different margaritas and flights. We order various dinners and have always been reasonably happy to very happy. read more

The atmosphere was really pretty and I really liked the decor and theme of the restaurant. Visually very pleasing. The staff was really nice and they kept checking in on us every now and then. Honestly, this was the first time I ever tried a Birria quesadilla and it was honestly so delicious. I didn't get a picture of everyone's meal, but I did get a picture of mine and my mother's meal and both of them were so good. Honestly, I would come back here again because the food was good and I love Mexican food so I think that just makes it extra for me. Plus the inside was so pretty. It was like walking into an art museum. Honestly, I love the decor so much. read more

Pick up and take out lunch for 5 Chicken fajita salad: good Tacos: good Steak burrito: good Chicken quesadilla: gross. Dark meat was unsuspected and very much inferior to white meat. Also was mostly soggy Chips: not good - so thin they break when you try to dip them. Price: $100 for 5 meals - great value. Overall: Average rating for an inconsistent meal. read more

If you're in New Hampshire, Margarita's is a must-visit! I've never encountered such an extensive selection of margaritas anywhere else. I tried my first margarita-mosa, and it was fantastic! The food was solid traditional Mexican fare, but the real highlight here is the incredible variety of margarita options. A great spot for a fun night out! read more

I'm from out of town and came to visit my daughter's family and their newborn baby. Maybe would've been better if we had gone into sit down but...not a great experience and very costly for (2) combo fajitas, extra side of rice, guac, chips and salsa-$84. Good taste but portions are skimpy...I'm glad I ordered an extra grande on the steak. The steak had a lot of gristle and fat in it was very hard to chew. I added an extra side of rice which seemed to be (1) spoonful. Didn't even fill the small container. The chips are tasty and they give you plenty of them, the only problem was...we got the bottom of the barrel the chips were nothing but pieces so no dipping here. I will think twice before ordering here again. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Crushed chips - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

This place has been so hit or miss lately. The waitstaff misses attention to details, drinks are not what they use to be. We have received wrong food, many times cold food. Such a shame as it use to be our go to place. read more

We usually start our Friday nights here on the patio, the chips and salsa are always good, the drinks are great but a little pricey. They're definitely the best margaritas around though. The food is usually good, but also pricey. 2 drinks and a meal will run you at least $50 before tip. Parking can be a pain sometimes since the parking lot is shared with a hotel. read more

I grew up with Tio Juan's. It was a high school haunt for me. This is not the place I used to know and love. I started going to the one in Portsmouth when I moved to the seacoast years ago. I haven't been in a very long time but I was still surprised by the quality of the food. Waitress was nice, restaurant was clean and very quiet for a Saturday night. I didn't take photos as it didn't matter. My taquitos were like a frozen box from the grocery store. The veggie burrito was hard to find buried in a pile of lettuce and sour cream and was a soggy mess. This is not Mexican like it was back in the day. This is cheap bar food. What a shame. P.S. the margaritas were on point. read more

I don't understand why they changed things but it was not for the better. Everything tasted like it was doused in jalapeño juice. I got the carne asada and it was raw. Overall not great on the food anymore. They used to be consistent, now it is a roll of the dice. read more

i love mexican food so much and margaritas is one of my favorite places to go. their service is awesome here and all their workers are quick and polite. my favorite thing to get here is the queso for an appetizer and the taco salad with ground beef! i love all the decor too. one of the best margaritas locations! read more

A couple of weeks ago, being a glutton for gastrointestinal punishment we ordered Margaritas take out for a little get together with friends - one of which loves Margaritas. Ordered a couple Frajita packs from the catering menu to go. Figured a "Mexican" restaurant can't screw this up. Wrong! I get home to find a single frajita meal and about 2 lbs of rice! What the hell! We call over to Margaritas and they were at first distrustful of us trying to get free stuff. Believe me - there is nothing I want from Margaritas- free or otherwise. Three strikes and you are out. I'm done with this place read more

Food was awful, drinks had spit in it and the waiter was extremely slow. Chipotle is better than this for real. I wouldn't eat here ever again after seeing the quality of the food and being told they won't remake my food that they got wrong! read more

Our server Talah was attentive and knowledgeable, eager to share recommendations. We never felt rushed, and the staff seemed genuinely invested in ensuring we had a great experience. It's refreshing to see such enthusiasm for service. read more

The food was so good and the service was good too. If you don't get this amazing food your missing your best meal ever

Bri at Dover Margaritas is a great and fun bartender to have take care of you. It's awesome to see her move around and be able to multitask with the bar and other staffs drinks. I go there weekly because the drinks are so good! read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

We were staying at the hotel that shares the parking lot basically with this restaurant..however it wasn't great. I ordered the food and paid for it but when my mom went across to get the quesadilla I got they told her I didn't pay for it..I sent her a screenshot but they still argued then figured it out. The quesadilla wasn't good. It was very soggy which isn't great. The chicken was okay just spicy. It just didn't have much taste or really any sorta flavor at all besides like wet which isn't a great taste at all. I wouldn't be back read more

What idiot changed the rice recipe? They had a great thing and broke it. Recent disappointments causing us to party elsewhere.

I got the panbaked enchiladas. The meat was dry and over cooked and it was smothered in an awful pickled lime sauce that was the only thing you could taste. It overpowered every other flavor besides pickle. Gross. My wife got the birria tacos which has no flavor at all. The birria dip was basically just grease with no flavor at all. For the money we spent it was definitely not worth it. Taco bell is more authentic. read more

Amazing food and service. For dessert I would recommend the super grande, as it was enough to satisfy my family of 4.

Dover Margs is the best! 10/10 recommend. Great vibes, great servers, and great margaritas!

TALAH was amazing! she was so engaging with our dinner party, we can't wait to come back and see her again!

Good Mexican food, for New Hampshire. The enchilada sauce is a little sweet for me, but the chimi is a solid choice. read more

I arrived at 5:30 and was seated quickly as I was alone. At 6pm nobody and I mean nobody stopped to even ask me if I wanted a drink. At 6pm I went to the greeters and said I can't wait any longer and I left. Not one apology or anything. I know it's a Friday evening and they were busy but I was looking forward to a nice meal and a cold beer. read more

Not great. I go every few weeks with a variety of friends. We like the chips and salsa-that's why I go back. Servus is very hot or miss. Often not great. New Year's Eve server was fantastic. Food is standard. Never great. Never bad. They mess up special requests often...like no cheese or no lettuce or something like that. Be specific with your request and then just Hope it's right. They have changed to electronic handhelds to take orders. This seems to make meals more accurate. If they make a mistake though, they can't fix it. Forgot to give your number so they can add your reward points? Oh well, nothing we can do. You did give the number but they forgot to put it in? Same thing. They can't fix it. No offer of anything they can do. Mints when you leave are now gone too. Bathrooms need warm water. I like that they had paper towels! read more

Went to Margaritas when staying at the hotel whose parking lot it is in. This is a chain I'm unfamiliar with, and while I grew up eating at chain places, I never go anymore so this was unexpectedly intriguing. The place is decorated exactly as you'd expect a chain Mexican place to be, and had a lot of seating to choose from. Service was good throughput it, except for the very end when our waitress disappeared as we needed the bill. This was just a small lunch ahead of a wedding later that day, so we kept it simple. Would've liked to have had a margarita, but that would've garnered too many dirty looks. Got the loaded skillet nachos with chicken, Mayan shrimp and chicken baby chimis. I did not try the latter as my wife's friend monopolized them. The nachos were just ok. I expected them to be a mess of different ingredients, however surprisingly enough, there weren't many nachos. What was there was soggy from the other ingredients, which was mostly beans. There was a decent amount of chicken at least, but still no nachos man?? We got the Mayan shrimp at our waitress' urging; unfortunately they were a waste of time. They basically consisted of 5 small shrimp, lightly fried, on a bed of salad crap with a few toppings thrown in. Complete waste of money. Got a salad to go for a friend of mine which she said was ok. I suppose this did the job, but it was subpar even for a chain. Then again what do you expect from the parking lot of a hotel. Maybe get the namesake margarita first and the food will be more appealing. read more

by far the worst customer service i have ever seen was told there was no way to make a reservation on valentines day?? called and was told there was no wait to show up with a 45 minute wait and rude hostesses. the older woman standing at the desk should consider finding a job that does not include customer service as she, does not have any skills in that department. sad to see this establishment hire such incompetent staff as it used to be one of my favorites read more

Excellent nachos and margs! Our server was attentive, knowledgeable and very helpful for our part of 6. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

Now I know Margaritas normally isn't known to be the best of the best when it comes to Mexican cuisine, however I did enjoy it. I came here with my friend and I decided to order the loaded skillet nachos and I also uploaded a picture of this. As you can it looks delicious and it tasted delicious. I normally always try to finish my food however the amount was so much I did not. Perfect if you want your moneys worth. The decor is normal with those tile tables and normal decor. I do enjoy it because its just fun. Our waitress was very nice and the place was also very clean. People - 10/10 Food - 9/10 Drinks - (just got water) Decor - 8/10 Restrooms - didn't use read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Loaded Skillet Nachos - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

Oh, what a poor restaurant this is. the drinks are ok. Had a spicy skinny margarita. The salsa was thin and paltry like it was poured from a jar. I ordered a very simple meal; chicken enchilada with beans and rice. there actually was a bit of real chicken in it. the rice and beans were terrible. no taste at all! I kept trying them. Nothing. Absolutely no flavor in them. All the plants around the booths were dried and not cared for. Our server was good. She was attentive and apologized, although it was not her fault nor was there any way possible to make it better. I cannot imagine how this establishment stays in business! read more

Margs Dover is our go-to place when we want a fun vibe. The staff are friendly and attentive. They always make guests feel welcome. (Taylor, Coty, Mario, and so many other great staff.) Managers are always floating through to make sure guests are happy, which we virtually always are. While the food isn't authentic Mexican, it's consistent, solid, and fresh. Margs is a great atmosphere for a date, for an evening with friends or coworkers, and for our family. Margs is doing a great job maintaining safety during the pandemic, which is why it's our go-to. We never worry about someone sitting too close or being allowed in without a mask, as we have experienced elsewhere. Every restaurant seems to offer margaritas now, but this place makes the best, without question. When you want a fun time out while staying safe, Margs Dover is the place to go. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Strawberry margarita & complimentary chips - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

A complete disorganized mess. This location recently changed to "self seating" in the lounge which means you have to sit at a filthy table or else risk your turn in line waiting for a table. The service staff and managers seems understandably stressed by this. I would be too if the second one table left, waiting patrons jumped into a dirty table. Whoever changed the lounge to self seating clearly has never served tables or knows the flow of a well-runned restaurant. I will not be going back to this location as long as the lounge is "self seating". While waiting in cue for a table other guests had also commiserated that they hated this new change as well. I spoke with a lovely older couple who had told me that this was the last straw for them too. Good luck to this terribly ran restaurant. read more

For the second time in two months, our online order was unconscionably late. This time I placed an online order at 5:45 p.m. for a 7 p.m. pickup, then had to wait another 30 minutes past that to actually get the food. The previous time the delay was more than an hour past the promised pickup time. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - I had the original steak fajitas & he had the steak n shrimp combo fajitas! Tasty!! - Mexican Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

I'm torn when it comes to Margaritas. In the past the food always hit the spot and the atmosphere was always friendly and fun. The food wasn't good and they were blasting the music so loud you couldn't talk to the person next to you. Not to mention the song choice was horrible (what does the fox say) and our waitress wasn't around us except to drop the food off. Definitely a waste of money and time. read more

The bartender had a terrible attitude and was visibily disappointed when I entered the restaurant

First of all, Lindsey R below needs to learn fact from fiction...her and her friend not only made an ass out of themselves once...but twice...you two started drama and thought the staff was just going to take it. Nobody deserves to be treated the way you treated any of them. We come here weekly and always are treated well and have a great time. Jerk wings and street corn we could eat every single day. Most of the staff are super personable and fun. Great atmosphere with or without kids. Besides drunks being "rude" we always have a good time. read more

I would give 0 stars if I could. Food and drinks okay, but VERY rude staff. Bartender cutting people off after one drink and kicking people out for trying to get her attention with a polite "excuse me?" I have never seen anything like it! Was called a "drunk bitch" and "c**t" by a male waiter after he eavesdropped on a private conversation I was having with a friend. My friend returned the next day to alert the manager, and said manager watched as the same waiter verbally assaulted her when she tried to voice her concerns. The male waiter proceeded to call my friend a "c**t" multiple times. Insane! Avoid this place altogether unless you enjoy being harassed. Definitely don't bring your kids! These people are foul! read more

My family had flown in from Colorado and was staying at the nearby hotel. I had called to see if they could accommodate a party of 8 around 5:30pm at which they advised me that it was a Friday night and that atleast within an hour they could not. I asked if I could make a reservation for a time they advised me they could not. About an hour later we had arrived to put our names in for when they were able to accommodate and were advised that it would be a 45 minute wait and we chose to wait as we were unable to drive elsewhere. The bar area was empty and people coming in were advised they could pick a table there. About an hour later the hostess says to her co worker that they were going to make us wait another 25 minutes. WHY? we were patient and causing no issues. Then after that we were brought to a table in the near back in an area that was completely empty with many tables open for larger parties. We didnt understand but didn't say anything. It was also my neices birthday and the waitress told her they would sing to her later. We got our food, ate, then the bill. We paid. My nephew didn't get his free ice cream treat with the meal so we asked and said we only give it if you ask. WHY do we need to ask when it is part of the meal. The restaurant made. Promise to my neice that we didn't aks for to have them sing and they never did. They seemed so frustrated that we were all there but don't understand why. My family and I will never go to this restaurant when we are in town again. The staff was completely rude but still left a consider tip anyway. The food was cold when we got it. read more
