Food is inconsistent, service is terrible, and draft beer is $6.50. Please go somewhere else. This place sucks!

This place is right on Main Street and easy to get to. The decor and layout is interesting. Our waitress was great. We got Tacos cause it was taco Tuesday and we also had fajitas. Prices were very fair. Everything was really good. Would go back again read more

The last three times we've gotten takeout from Margaritas they got our order wrong. Better experience in person.

Stopped by after visiting family. Needed margaritas and they delivered. Tommy's Margarita is the best! Chips and salsa first rate. Fish tacos, good but dish slightly over fried. Shrimp tacos, lacked shrimp but were still tasty. Carnitas tacos, great meat, but what's up with all the corn? Service was good, prices reasonable. Would go again. read more

I got there late and the bar was still open and food was available! Bartender was new but multitasking with a half full bar and a few tables too. Fish tacos were very nice with a bit of spice but could have been a bit more on the moist or had a sauce to add moisture. Chips were perfect and salsa was fresh but someone should take the lime away from the person making it as the lime was very strong. Overall I liked the food and the staff was very pleasant. I would eat there again. read more

I got their taco salad and had a piece of metal wire in my food, they didn't offer anything, not even to get me something else to eat and still charged full price. Awful experience. read more

100% the worst restaurant experience i have ever had. We were told to seat ourselves and our server would be with us shortly. It took someone 15 minutes to realize we were there. We Picked the cleanest looking table and sat down- only to find it was never wiped down. Our server brought us the wrong drinks. He did not provide any utensils or napkins. when asked for napkins we were given an attitude and sarcasm. after sitter awhile we noticed the floor was noticeably filthy, and people coming in continued to seat themselves at dirty tables. It was not busy. Many servers walking through the floor and not one took it upon themseves to tidy up a single table the whole two hours we sat there. We had the hectors quesadilla. One with beef, the other birria. We both got food poisoning within 6 hours. Absolutely horrible service and will never be back. read more

Recent visit I tried the birria tacos as there was a $5 off special for Friends & Family. I would pass on these. They were more like little quesadillas. Looked like they were grilled and kinda greasy looking. If you've had real birria street tacos this is not them. read more

Food was good enough if there were some... odd choices (like weirdly sweet enchilada sauce smothering the taco salad?! and heavy cilantro in the refried beans), but even we heat-loving Texans found the salsa too hot to enjoy. The server went MIA after delivering the food. We had to ask the hostess to find him for our check. We've had some really delicious Mexican food on this trip. This was kinda meh. read more

We just moved to Keene, and my parents came to visit and see our home. We thought we would take them out to a late lunch to welcome them to Keene for the first time, which didn't turn out as we had hoped. We had a party of 5, and came in shortly after 3PM. A table was available immediately, and the hostess led us to a table and walked away, clearly not looking at the table or booth, both of which were covered in cheese, taco meat, crayons, and more. They had just opened, so clearly this was from the night before. The hostess came back over at our request and wiped it down quickly. I wish I could say it was just the seating that was dirty, but no. There was food on the floor, the window sills looked like they've NEVER been cleaned, the water glasses had cheese dried onto them, and there was dust on everything. Not only was the restaurant physically dirty and disgusting, the food was not great. It was bland, and took FOREVER to come out. They also didn't have the Poblano Stuffed Pepper even though it was a Saturday shortly after opening, and had to check with the kitchen if they could do lettuce wraps instead of tortilla even though that's also printed on the menu. When the food finally did come out, we weren't provided with enough utensils, and when we request them, the waiter didn't come back for 15 minutes. The waiter also spilled some of the Rocket Pop 'Rita on the table, and he tried to quickly wipe it off, but was unsuccessful. We request additional napkins to wipe it up, but only received 3 napkins to clean a spill. To add to the discomfort and unease, at the end of all this, they read the bill out to the table to confirm the order, and then the total. We were taking my parents who were visiting from out of state for the first time, and I really would have appreciated if they didn't know how much the bills was. I also couldn't see the receipt before paying, which made me extremely uncomfortable. My husband and I both worked in restaurants as managers, and this was unacceptable on every level from beginning to end. Do better. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Food covered window sills - Mexican Near Me - Keene, New Hampshire

Slow. Slow. Slow. Cinco de Mayo. Not very full. Early afternoon on a Sunday. Drinks took forever to arrive. Too full. Slopping the goodness all over the place. Food was okay. Steak fajitas ordered medium rare. Some pieces mooing. Ordered "extra" portion. Glad I did because I think it would have been pretty short. Rice was not all cooked right. Quite a few pieces hard as a rock. Taco salad was small but tasty according to wife. Margaritas were okay. Either the tequila was very watered down or shorted for the size. As much as was in my overflowing glass, I should have been buzzed a bit. Nada. Cold inside. Ceiling fans not needed today. Underwhelmed by food and drinks but service by Haley was awesome. Great asset. read more

Great food and great service! Waitress was very attentive and food was very good and came out fast.

Good food, but awful service. I went with a party of three. The server brought our food out, but my order was wrong. I explained politely, but instead of acknowledging his mistake, the server argued with me about what I ordered. I have never had a server argue with me, especially about what I told them I had ordered. The other two in my party ate their meals while I waited for mine to be remade. The rest of my party was nearly finished eating when my server came back and asked me to clarify how I wanted my meal prepared. I told him at this point it was too late; the others in my party would be done eating by the time my food came out, so I asked to have my meal taken off the bill. He gave me more attitude about this, which really surprised me. Later, as the rest of my party was finishing up, a different server came out with my corrected order. I had to explain that I had nixed my entree, which was really awkward. Also, the server forgot my drink order (he asked me what I wanted to drink twice, but never brought it over). When we asked for the check, we had to wait 20+ minutes for it to come out When we got the check, the drink I never got was still listed on the check, so we had to flag him down and get that corrected. I really don't like complaining about businesses or bad service -- I don't think I've ever written a negative review for a restaurant before -- but this was a real circus. I wouldn't have minded messing up my order so much (accidents happen), but the attitude really bothered me. read more

It's just ok. Much better Mexican food in Keene than this place. I would only go here for a drink & chips

Came recommended by the hotel across the street, and overall had a good experience. The weather was perfect, so we opted to eat out front on the patio. The hostess was *really* fabulous when we asked about nut allergies. She was very knowledgeable and accommodating (since her brother lives with similar allergies). She checked back in the kitchen and talked to the chefs for us. Server was a tad spacey but sweet, and the food hit the spot. The only 'thumbs down' was the loud motorbikes roaring by every minute or two, but this had nothing to do with the restaurant so I didn't dock any stars. Just know if you want a quiet evening, don't sit outdoors because it's the main drag for bikers. Would recommend for out of town guests and locals alike. read more

We read mixed reviews but decided to give it a try. Wait staff was on point. Great people. The food.....first the plates were 783 degrees and they sucked all the moisture out of the rice. My hubby and I both got chicken chimechongas. They were stuffed so full of mozzarella cheese that it actually made me nauseated, and I'm a big panzarotti fan. My husband described the beans as tasting like the burned handle of the pot. Everything was so hot that the sour cream and guacamole melted. We left so much food on our plates that it didn't even count as a meal. If you too are on the fence, I recommend not doing it. read more

Never been to a Mexican restaurant. Service was terrible. loved the waitress. She was very nice. It was kind of loud. The steak I got was pretty good. Didn't really like anything else took her over 30 minutes to get us with the check kind of busy but not really dad almost left without paying food. Took a really long time to get to us. But if I had to give it stars, I would have given it a 2 /5 stars read more

The service was excellent. My waitress Tess was so friendly and attentive. Gave me a great recommendation for dinner, was quick with my food and very pleasant. I had the nachos which was large and really good and the margaritas were great. The place was clean and the tables are a good distance from each other so I felt Covid safe. Had a good vibe! I highly recommend, if you go ask for Tess or Danny. read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Original Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Keene, New Hampshire

Chain restaurant that always has a nice ambience. Staff is friendly. Food is just average. Today I had the shrimp lettuce tacos that were rated 1/5. Shrimp was flavorful but it was drenched in a sauce that was overwhelming. I would not get them again. Taco selections are just that...tacos... no rice or beans to accompany them unless you order that a la carte. My husband had the combo plate rated 4/5. I think this establishment is good for a hangout for drinks w friends. I left w my palate unsatisfied. read more

Maddie rocked! She was a great service. Drinks were awesome made by Amanda as well!!!!!!!!

Okay I must say it's a beautiful place. Love the decor and it looked clean. Now that's said it might be because I'm from California which I really enjoy the Mexican food style that I haven't really found what I'm used to eating in New England yet. So along with that knowledge the food was okay but not my favorite. And I bought a two margaritas which the first one was awesome, second one was unfortunately really bad. Which I paid $15 and couldn't drink. I just left it on the table untouched except for one sip. If it's my choice I don't think I'll be a returning customer. Family members might enjoy it much more than me. read more

Came here on a Sunday around 5:00pm. Outstanding food and drinks. I was actually blown away with the service and food.

There are a few times in life when a meal is so expertly crafted and planned that it is nothing short of genius. Tonight, was not one of those meals. The queso was more like beer cheese. The guacamole was literally just mashed avocados no seasonings. Tess our waitress was amazing. But this "Mexican" was terrible. The enchiladas were so mid. I'm sorry but I couldn't let the restaurant get away with having 3 stars. You will be let down :( read more

Alex's service was phenomenal. kept up with my meals and was always coming to my table. The ambiance was awsome and made teh experience all worth while. read more

Good service, enjoyable food, varied memo and good drinks. Who could ask for more! We enjoyed the taco salad, Tito Burritos and frozen mango margaritas. They've recently increased their hours which is a further plus. Stop in and check it out. read more

Seated promptly, waited 25 minutes for server. Placed our order and asked for chips and water... still waiting. The place has a serious issue with employees. read more

We drive through Keene every so often and decide to stop at Margaritas on a Friday night. Pleasant hostess. Pleasant staff. Food horrible. Worst meal I have ever had at a restaurant. I am giving Margaritas 2 stars only because of the staff. Guacamole was just o.k. My husband had skillet enchiladas and the amount of beef in the enchiladas was the size of a quarter but if you have a hankering for cheese this is the place to be. I ordered a vegetarian skillet. I counted 3 peppers and 5 mushrooms no corn and who bakes lettuce in the oven.... Horrible. Great spot in Keene that place can be hopping but they definitely need to care more about the food they serve . read more

Solidly mediocre American-style Mexican food in a somewhat run down and not too clean setting.

I find the customer service is really good here and the food to be really good. I hope you could try to. read more

I haven't been here for a year bcuz food is always messed up, orders get mixed up, silverware is dirty, and the kitchen is filthy (according to a maintenance tech I know who was there doing repairs). I asked for no cilantro and grilled shrimp in my salad and it arrived with no shrimp and full of cilantro. I had to wsit 20 minutes for it to come back after dish was fixed. this was a fun place to go when I was in college but idk what happened, the last 4x I've been there everything went wrong. I went during a "special" cinco de Maya , and our drinks were served in plastic disposable cups, there were no discounts as advertised, and the food was basic. you'd think a chain restaurant could get things right. read more

Our waitress was great...she gets stars! But, huge negatives are killing this place. First, it smells. Like open-the-door-to-enter-&-get-blasted-by-musty-stink smells. I literally started to turn to leave but my daughter was "starving" so we stayed. The booth we were seated at was dirty & sticky; the floor was sticky; the bathroom smelled & was sticky. The place needs a good airing out & a deep clean. Second, the drinks looked promising especially with housemade syrups but were definitely lacking in alcohol. Bummer cuz the flavor was pretty good. Lastly, the food. Just not good. Salsa tasted like Tostitos. The chicken in the Hector's quesadilla tasted like canned tuna. Not a good taste. The jalapeño baby chims were good because I like cream cheese & jalapeños. But seasoning was sparse or nonexistent & flavors were off on all the food. For such a huge restaurant in Keene, NH, it was all very underwhelming & I wouldn't return. read more

Went on a Tuesday night. They used to have Taco Tuesday's, but that is yet another Covid casualty. Parked on Main Street, only to be confronted by two VERY drugged, middle aged individuals on the bench in front of my vehicle. Thanks to the Keene City Council, this is a common occurrence and has driven a lot of people away from Downtown Keene. To the point...As a result of the actions of the local governance, businesses are struggling to survive and the quality of food in many places has gone way downhill. The food at Margaritas was bland and tasteless. That said, I realize the situation as a whole and dont blame the restaurant entirely. We will go an hour out of our way to eat at better restaurants in safer areas. Found a great Mexican restaurant, Mi Corazon, in Greenfield, NH. Keene needs to clean up its act. I'm hard pressed to frequent businesses in downtown Keene. read more

Terrible customer service. Under trained staff, and complete ignorance regarding restaurant edict. They help the rude customers who cut the line and snap their fingers at them first. While completing pushing aside patient customers who have been waiting and next in line. We were called to our table after our 45 minute wait, when I didn't like being rudely passed by I spoke up and was quickly told they were more important. Which was obvious when they walked through the packed door passed the line and snapped their fingers for instant service. If that's how I was treated before I even hit my seat I didn't want to take it any further and left. Smelled like basic Tex mex any way. read more

Undercooked beans, overcooked rice. Solid American chicken taco. Nice waitress. Will come back for drinks and the vibe

...adequate service...I guess. Enchiladas were tasteless, a real mish- mash of flavorless dreck; why could I not distinguish chicken or beef flavors...franchise food is capable of so much more than this..., or is it? Embarrassing, really. Sorry kids... 1/2 shot tequila in our margarita's...watery....jeesch this type of place perpetuates itself and says something about mediocrity in this country. (not hyperbole). read more

Out of all the Margaritas I have been to, which is a good handful, this one is by far my favorite. The jail cell tables are hilarious and add to the aesthetic, the drinks are decently priced and the bar is roomy, and the food is, at it's worst, still always an enjoyable experience. This location is also built on the same ground where American-essayist Henry David Thoreau lived, as well as the widow(?) of American-essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. read more

First time at this particular location and it will be my last. The best part of this dining experience was the Diet Coke we ordered to drink. Food quality was awful, and I could not even bring myself to take more then two bites off the tio's burrito which was covered in wilted lettuce and sour cream. The burrito came with steak filling which a had a pot roast taste.Not sure where they get off calling this crap Mexican food. It's pretty bad when the Taco Bell taste better then food being served at this establishment. Our server was not attentive and not once cleared any plates or cups off our table. If I could give this place zero stars I would. If you're looking for an authentic Mexican experience avoid this pace at all cost. read more

Best Mexican food in New Hampshire..... Great service awesome environment. I would go back for more great food and I would recommend to friends read more

Service is not very good at all. Even with reservations it took over 20 minutes to be seated, over 30 minutes to be seen by a waiter and almost two hours to receive our food which was not very good at all. I'd understand if it was very busy and short-staffed, but it was not very busy and it even seemed that staff were standing around. I will not be returning. read more

My boyfriend and I are in town visiting and searching out someplace different to eat. We found this Mexican restaurant and thought we'd give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is quite large and the decor is very authentic. The staff are very pleasant and attentive. A large selection on the menu but many great choices. The food was very good and we highly recommend it. Shavonne was our waitress and she was very sweet with a great personality. read more
