The atmosphere was on point with great vibes and music that really set the tone. The service was especially impressive--our server was attentive, efficient, and made sure everything flowed seamlessly without ever feeling rushed. It really elevated the whole experience. The chips and salsa were easily some of the best I've had, and of course I had to try the flan (a personal weakness)--it did not disappoint. Perfect portion, smooth texture, and incredible flavor. Highly recommend and already looking forward to coming back!

The man working at the register is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet and the service here is absolutely fantastic. We ordered a handful of tacos including vegetation, chorizo, carnitas, birria and two others I can't remember. Since it was our first time here I also wanted to try some of the sides to compare to my favorite Mexican spots and we ended up with chips, queso, beans, and chocolate tres leches cake. The toppings bar is absolutely the best in Western, NY with anything that you can imagine (except for radish slices). Our food was ready in just a few short minutes and all was to our liking. My husband felt that the birria was a little bland and I thought the beans were a little too soupy, but considering the spread we ordered and the excellent service that can be forgiven. Great spot if you're willing to make the drive.

My husband and I love sitting at the bar and watching the show of endless birthday singing, and patron sparklers with music. There is always music. You can't be in Margaritas and not smile at least once. The spirit in there is infectious.

I like adding it to my collection in my Jeep. The standout marg was the watermelon. It wasn't too sweet. Prickly pear and dragon fruit were a little too sweet for me. Because I was hungry, but not hungry enough, I went with two side orders. I got a tostada and a taco. They were fine. My husband got a burrito and finished his meal. If you like a little excitement and party in your life, I highly recommend this place. Employees are friendly.

If I could give it 3.5 stars I would but I was pretty disappointed in my experience. It started out…read morewhen we were told a 20-30 minute wait. We finally went inside and were told another 10 mins after waiting almost 45. So all told it was about an hour wait. I get they're busy but they were not honest about the wait time. Then we were sat in the bar area and it was just very loud and rowdy thanks to what we found out was a rehearsal dinner, seriously it went down about 10 octaves after they left. Our server seemed very frazzled. When we first sat down we were given a smaller dinner menu and told the regular menu was only for drinks. Our server explained they are training a new kitchen. So we go to order and our appetizer came before our drinks. We ordered the guac and it was tasty. When we finally got our margaritas they were good. Then they delivered a queso to the table that wasn't ours, but let us keep it anyway. Then dinner arrived. I ordered shrimp tacos- and chicken came. I had to wait while they made me the correct tacos, according to the bill the server had put them in wrong. I also felt $20 for three taco shells with 3-4 shrimp each was a lot. You can not mix and match taco types. The only toppings provided are a very spicy sauce, cilantro, and onion. I ended up putting the queso on them which was good. Just never had tacos with that limited toppings for the price and no toppings bar. We repeatedly asked for more water during the meal and never got any so my friend had to go up to the bar. We ordered a soft serve margarita (the real reason we were here!) for desert to share as the flavor was chocolate and raspberry twist. It was really good! Very rich and definitely a sweet treat type of drink. The server said the flavors aren't usually like that or as thick as ours was. All this to say I honestly feel they are trying to figure some things out right now. The food itself and drinks were very good. I enjoyed the soft serve margarita and would love to try some other flavors that aren't as rich in the future. Would I go back? Yes but not for a few months. The service piece of this place is not it right now. I wouldn't order the tacos again either as I don't feel the value is there. My friend has been here dozens of times and she said it's never like this. So I hope to give them another try!

It's a Mexican-Breakfast fusion that works in all the right ways. From the Chicken and Churros to the Tres Leches Pancakes and Breakfast Entrees, this place is a pleasant surprise. Pancakes were really good but still definitely needed syrup, of which they had none. I ended up putting powdered sugar in my cream to make a bit of a glaze. So stash some syrup in bag if you're a pancaker. According to my guests the chicken and churros were great. The steak was two HUGE pieces. The rice was perfectly cooked. The refried beans, salad and potatoes were very flavorful. The tacos were great and very filling. We all left with doggy bags. Easily one of the best Brunch options in the Buffalo area with delicious non-alcoholic options beyond just pop. Ambiance is fabulous. Plenty of space for any size group. Fantastic, attentive, service. Clean bathrooms. You've gotta check them out!

It was a nice, quick stop and I am glad we decided to grab food here while passing through.
