Editorial Review for La Margarita Restaurant – by Lindsey Rausch
In Short
On the patio, hand-painted tile tables with colorful umbrellas allow patrons a great view of busy shoppers in Market Square. Guests can also enjoy the cool indoor atmosphere, festooned Mexican-style with bright, vibrant colors. Mariachis provide lively entertainment as they serenade diners inside and out. The menu offers fajitas and other grilled-sizzling meats, fresh-made flour tortillas, flaming queso and other south-of-the-border specialties. Accompany a hearty meal with the house-specialty margaritas.

For starters, the service was awesome. My girlfriend and I were clueless on what we should order. They were very helpful with suggestions. On top of the great service, the food was delicious. My girlfriend was cold and they brought a table cloth out to use as a blanket to keep her warm. Great atmosphere, I thought i was in Mexico! Will definitely go back any time I am in the area.
Pros: Food and Service
Cons: The A/C was a little cold..if i must leave a con.

A friend and I tried to get into Mi Tierra at 7:00 on a Saturday night but opted for the slightly less busy La Margarita instead. Our table wait--which we were told would be 35 minutes--was about an hour, but the Pomegranite margaritas and people watching made up for it. The chips were hot and the salsa was authentic (soooo good). Our fajitas were yummy, although they only come with pico, guac, rice & charro beans, and some sour cream would have been a welcome addition. The only negative was the slow service, and I can't exactly fault the waitstaff. This is a tourist location and, in our section alone, we saw a softball team, business people in town for a conference, and a ton of vacationers with cameras and fanny packs. If you're in a rush or highly impatient, go somewhere else (out of El Mercado), if you like to people watch and kick back in a festive environment, try La Margarita.
Pros: Fun atmosphere, great patio, great food
Cons: Pay for parking ($2.50 for 2 hours), long table wait, slow service
