the place was nice but the hot bartender gave me dirty thoughts all week. don't recommend it. I'm not going back

Great food....service is good. Outside seating is good even when it's really hot! We had a great experience even with my service dog.

The service alone will have you coming back! We're moving to the area and have been here twice. Each time, service has been fantastic. Inside is small but we haven't waited any longer than about 5 minutes or so. Cool decor inside as well. I've gotten the taco salad and puffy tacos. Both were good. Hubby had the enchiladas and he loved them as well. We will definitely be back here to enjoy their food. read more

Got the chimichanga, was just a soppy wet gooey burrito. So gross. Seemed like it was not even deep fried. Flavorless and minimum chicken . Rice was good good, but same thing with the refried beans, NO FLAVOR. 0 out of 5 stars. Will never go back. read more

Margarita's Mexican Restaurant - Lunch beef Fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Justin, Texas

The food and service and the ambience is always great. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We live down the street and paid a visit to Margarita's. It's a good Tex-Mex. I felt the food was a little bland. I wanted a little more flavor and seasoning. Service is always great and the drinks... yeah, that's where it's at, they are awesome. To be fair, I'm a picky Tex-Mex eater because I grew up on it. So, if mom can make it better, then you get it. The patio is lovely. We enjoy sunny afternoons there. Nothing special but worth checking it out of your in the area. read more

Margarita's Mexican Restaurant - Patio with a Top Shelf Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Justin, Texas

I like this place so much I ate here twice on my short trip visiting family. I really liked both dishes I tried. My favorite was the birria tacos. They were stuffed full of meat, and the consome was delicious. The other dish was Anita"s Tacos. They were filled with carne asada, chorizo, and beans. The wait staff did a great job. I'll be back the next time I'm in town visiting family. read more

Food was outstanding and a real surprise on our first visit. Enchiladas were great. Had chicken and beef and both were outstanding! Had enough left over for reheat dinner. Reheated it was just as good as fresh out of the kitchen. Staff was great and the service was fast and friendly. Would definitely recommend and we will be back! read more

Great Food Great Service Management Great They will be a place I visit weekly. Going tonight. read more

The food is subpar and the prices are expensive for what you get. The service isn't as friendly as it could be- I noticed if you're a frequent flyer there then the waiters are friendly if not you're screwed. There is no ambience of course it's just a hole in the wall so nothing expected there. All in all it's expensive for what you get which is hardly anything presentation is comical and the margaritas are priced as if one was eating at a white table cloth restaurant. Don't waste your time or your money. read more

The food was great. Lots to choose from on the menu. It was busy but we got amazing service. Super cute ambiance love the chandeliers.

Great local food. Always packed and the owners are amazing. Prices are good place is a little cramped. Food is great. Big plus to the family ownership they are attentive and feel like they really are part of our community. read more

The service is amazing and the food is yummy. We love the hotsauce and enchiladas. Amazing service. I would give it 5 stars and it is authentic tex mex for that area, but it still isn't as good as the border. read more

Margarita's Mexican Restaurant - Chimichanga to go. - Mexican Near Me - Justin, Texas

I was amazed how good the foods were. My boyfriend and I stopped by this place for a quick bite. Chips and salsa were free. We ordered guacamole which the server brought the ingredients to your table and make it fresh right in front of you. We ordered the tacos al pastor that comes with rice, beans, and avacado salad. We also got the birria tacos. The tacos were good. The al pastor was a bit dry but I did eat it all. I really like the beans. Didn't care much about the salad. The birria tacos were good. A bit greasy but still flavorful. Overall the restaurant was really good and we will definitely come back. read more

Delicious food! It's fresh, served hot, and has excellent service. Benito (of Cristina's fame back in the day) and his family have done wonders with this little spot. They have great frozen margaritas, with many flavors, too. Get there early if dining on the weekends as it's tiny and always packed. We prefer to take advantage of their lunch specials during the week. read more

Excellent Food have always enjoyed it. I asked if I could order off the child's venue. He said no problem so I did and when I got the bill, I questioned the amount. I was expecting $7.99 and I was charged $9.75 and he said it's because I was an adult ordering off the child's menu and this was an up charge. I just think they should've disclose that immediately. read more

My rating is based mainly on the food. You typically will know if the food will be good if the salsa is delish. Unfortunately, it was not good at all. The food is very bland. Overall it felt like the menu or cooking could use some MAJOR improvement. I really do love supporting Hispanic-owned businesses, and there are positives here!The service is great, the atmosphere is enjoyable, and the drinks are solid. That's why it's disappointing to say the food didn't match the rest of the experience, especially since it's one of the only Mexican restaurants near my home in Justin. read more

Our favorite new go-to since we've moved here. If you like it spicy, ask for the alligator sauce.

Hands down the worst tasting Mexican food I've ever seen or tasted. Just horrible. No flavor, no salt, no substance. Terrible, even flat out raunchy. read more

I highly recommend Margarita's Mexican! Everything we had was delicious. The service was also friendly and helpful. I can't speak on the ambiance as we had it to go. Chips, salsa, guac were good. Tacos: Baja, shrimp, and brisket all good. Definitely give this place a try! read more

The service was amazing - you can tell the staff are customer focused and good to each other ! Food was so good - authentic Tex Mex . Asada Tacos, guac made at your table and the house margarita on the rocks with salt is a must. read more

Went with family after being in the area. My aunt said; "after a year of searching for a specific dish, this was it and it was delicious!" Sorry, I forget what she ordered but She was happy!! The chips/salsa were good. In fact our kind server ended up bringing us bigger bowls of salsa. (We were oinking out!! LOL ) Food, drinks & service all good. It's a perfect casual family owned spot!! I only found one bathroom, BUT it was CLEAN, available & wasn't an issue. Will definitely be coming back to eat here! read more

Loved Loved Loved Margaritas restaurant. We are new local residents in the area and first time there LOVED the food, atmosphere, outstanding service. Margarita's were yummy. Margarita's made us feel like we were home and part of their family. Met the owner Benito, what a wonderful man, lived listening to him talk about his family, and his knowledge of the local area. read more

Really good food and excellent service. We came in well after lunch, but the lunch plates were still available. The chips and individual salsa were delicious. We got a queso with beef, salsa, guacamole, jalapenos and sour cream for the table and two frozen margaritas, using the top shelf tequila. The queso was delicious and very filling. It made me just getting a bowl of chicken tortilla soup the right choice for my lunch. The chicken tortilla soup was very filling and chocked full of chicken, tortilla slices and avocado. Very tasty! The Margaritas were good and potent. Being the driver, I opted to have a few sips and glad I didn't get my own! My mother got the chicken tacos with rice and refried beans and it was quite delicious. The tacos were a nice size and flavorful, juicy, and just right! Highly recommend a visit here. There is a nice outdoor area to the left side of the restaurant. Our server was excellent and he answered the questions we had. A great restaurant in the small town of Justin. Couldn't ask for better food! read more

Very nice people. The food is not. The cheese is like it was spooned from a can of football game concession stand's nacho cheese. The service was good- glass stayed refreshed! I was shocked at the bill for 4 people and three of us had a lunch special !! $80+ Choose another restaurant- that's my advice. read more

3.5 stars. Service was good and friendly. We had a new waiter who did just fine. This little place was a road-trip find we had seen several times and finally decided to stop in for lunch. We were greeted and then taken to our seats, we were escorted outside and into a little room at the back. It felt odd as their were seats open in the main restaurant area. Decor is what you would expect for a local Mexican restaurant. A bigger TV had a nature show playing. Food. The chips and salsa, we loved the salsa, chips were a bit thick but good. And they served plenty. With each person getting their own salsa. Off to a great start. Teen ordered the children's quesadilla. It was a nice size with plenty of rice. She was happy with her selection and said it was good. Our main entrees are where things went downhill. I ordered the carnitas taco plate. The presentation was very nice. However, the pork was dry and tasted like the lard. The Chile rellano was just ok. They asked what kind of chicken we wanted but then weren't sure what kind they had. Then asked what kind of sauce and didn't know what they had. Again new waiter but the person training him didn't seem to know either. My husband said cheese. The cheese sauce was their queso and just ok. Not someplace we will run back to. But did seem to be pretty busy today. read more

It's a rare thing to go into a place for the first time, and the staff treat you like a regular or family. That has been my experience here. Everyone is so polite, and willing to try to accommodate you. There's apparently specials named after dishes that customers have just come up with. The first time I came here, I had one of the customer specials. it was Al Pastor served on a sizzling plate with corn tortillas. It instantly took my back to my many trips to Mexico. I struggle to call this place Tex-Mex because it does remind me more of what you'd get in Mexico, but they do seem to try to accommodate both. The food here is excellent, and everyone is warm and inviting. I came in today, wanting Birria tacos, talks to Benito, and he said they can make something similar. I'll tell you it didn't disappoint. Shredded brisket with the same type of cheese. I would have taken a better photo but it smelled so good I had to eat one first. Come for the food. Come back for the food, service, and mariachi music on Tuesdays. read more

This is a local gem. We eat there all the time. It's friendly, clean, and food is fresh. Family owned.

I've been here with my family members several times in the last two years since we moved to Texas. I usually order the brisket quesadillas. Honestly the food is great all the time. Whether we eat inside the restaurant or take the food to go, the food always tastes good and we've yet to have a negative experience. The service is good also; the employees are kind and respectful and sitting in the restaurant is nice. It's usually very busy because it's a popular place, but they always take good care of their customers, and the inside of the restaurant is pleasant and has a good ambiance. I definitely recommend that you come to Margarita's Mexican Restaurant if you're looking for good Mexican food near Justin Texas. read more

Another restaurant creating mixed impressions for me, but most are good. Started with drinks. I merely had a big XX draft. My wife had a pina colada, which they prepare differently than any we have ever had. Made with Bailey's, Malibu Rum and their own pina colada mix, this was the most unique, rich and flavorful Pina Colada either of us have ever tasted. Such a step up for the usual. We then ordered a bowl of Queso which was much too big. They need a small and large. Also, this is really bad Queso. No real flavor other than cheap melted American cheese, or at least that is what it tasted like. If you like Queso, avoid this. The free chips and salsa to start were above average as far as salsa flavor, so we just kept with those. My wife had the Beny's Combo - a really nice offering for you to mix and match between enchiladas, tacos, tostadas and tamales. She ordered three different enchiladas, but was served two along with a cheese taco. The enchiladas were good but the taco was simply a tortilla filled with shredded cheese. I had the Migue's Tacos. The tacos themselves were excellent - filled nicely, good flavor to the chicken, and nice amount of onion and peppers. This element of the meal was five star. My meal came with what was billed as avocado salad. What that turned out to be was a few slices of avocado on a bed of brown, wilted lettuce. The chef and the serve should have been embarrassed to serve it the lettuce was so past its prime. The charro beans on the side were runny and flavorless. The rice on the side was very ordinary and also lacked flavor, like from a mix. The alligator sauce served on the side was some kind of green sauce with a high level of pepper kick. No subtlety, so not really very good. The refried beans on the side of my wife's meal were equally ordinary and tasted like they came from a can. The service and enthusiasm of the team was excellent. The space itself is small and intimate in that TexMex dive kind of way. So, overall a great pina colada, good enchiladas, excellent Migue's tacos, and perfection as far as service. But, all of the sides and extras were on a scale from ordinary and dull to terrible. We will give it one more chance because there were quite a few other main courses that seemed very creative and interesting, and if they are like the Migue's tacos, then it could be worth a visit or two. But, unless the sides are improved, this can't rate more than 3 stars. read more

We liked the food and service so much, we came two days in a row! The food was good, the beer rita even better, and all friendly servers. Better yet, they had the NFL playoff games on the TVs. Would come again if ever at a water polo tournament at NISD again. read more
