    One of the first and still hottest spots in Bethlehem for texmex. Good food, good vibes, and great service. Definitely expect crowds but the wait has never been too long for us. Not one of our first choices since there are now so many options but for sure an option.

    Steak and Shrimp Fajita bowl

    Visited on a Sunday afternoon and they were pretty busy. Our server was great. He was attentive and took great care of us. We ordered the kids meal chicken strips with fries, steak and shrimp fajita bowl and 3 tacos. The tacos of choice wee 2 chicken arrachera and 1 carnita. My son loved the fries and finished them before he started in this chicken strips. The chicken arrachera tacos were both kinda dry and the carnita was pretty good. Looking forward to coming back to try something else.

    GET THE GUACAMOLE EL REAL This is the go to spot. They are ALWAYS busy because the food and service is always perfect. Any time friends are in from out of town I always bring them here. The Carnitas bowl, Burrito Hidalgo and street tacos are

    Holiday coconut margarita
    Ashley G.

    Came here and ordered the special holiday coconut margarita, it was so good, had a sweet coconut flaked rim. Also got the cheese dip and it was good, but basic. Second time I was here, I ordered the same margarita and didn't get the sweet rim, and the margarita was not as white as the first. The cheese dip came out a little cool. Ordered the tricolor enchiladas and they didn't wow me but they also weren't bad, just not tons of flavor. Both times the place was packed, good family establishment, pretty loud.

    We dined in on a Monday evening. I was shocked at how busy this place was for a Monday. I've eaten here several years ago and it was mediocre. I only came here for an outing with my friends. The food was much better, however, service lacked. Our server was nice, but she hardly stopped by our table. I would still give this place another chance. But it's not the best Mexican food I've ever had.

    I ordered shrimp authentic tacos, and I specified I just wanted cilantro and onions. My mistake not checking in the restaurant.

    I wanted shrimp authentic tacos that just come with cilantro and onions. I will definitely check my bag in store next time.

    Come here every week and the new menu is great! Tried the pork belly tacos and they were DELICIOUS!

This…read moreplace has the best prices around for authentic Mexican food that's consistently delicious. Whether it's the flavorful tacos, enchiladas loaded with fresh ingredients, or their perfectly seasoned rice and beans, everything tastes homemade and hits the spot every time. my favorite is the Texas fajitas and the quesadillas are so yummy!!! What really keeps me coming back, though, is the incredibly friendly staff. They remember regulars, always greet you with a smile, and make you feel like family. The service is quick, warm, and genuine--no pretension, just great people. If you're looking for great value, top-notch Mexican eats, and a welcoming vibe, this is the spot. Highly recommend--it's been my go-to for years!"

So I decided that something with Tequila was going to be imbibed. Recently my oldest son (yes he is of drinking age), who works in the spirit industry introduced me to the Paloma. I prefer mine with a reposado and that is how Las Margaritias makes theirs. As usual I was promptly served and always with a smile. The owner came by and said hello, even though the place was crowded. In case you are wandering, a medium sized Paloma, consumed with only a modicum of food, was enough to drag me out of the blues. I still thoroughly enjoy this place and the vibe it contains.

    Was here a few years ago and gave it a 3 star review and now I have to say it is a 1 star. First…read moreoff it was empty on a Saturday night. Big red flag. Secondly, it smelled fishy. You know what they say fresh fish dies not smell. Decor has not changed. Started with a sangria and bread service. So many places are charging for bread but if you're going to charge me it better be good. Yall know I will pay for good food and service. When the bread came out there was 5 pieces of some sort of loaf bread that had been warmed. The menu said ciabatta bread and when I pointed it out to the waitress she said they didn't have it anymore. I said that's the only reason we ordered it was because it was a ciabatta bread. She just said sorry. Yall know if you follow my reviews I used to own a restaurant and it's misrepresented on the menu, What else is misrepresented? We ordered the wedge to share which was ok. I ordered the cod and my husband ordered the sirloin top cap and asked for it between med rare and med. My small piece of cod was overcooked, rice cold, plantains bitter and tortilla was hard and tasteless. My husbands sirloin was well and we think they mixed up the orders and it was TOUGH. Chewy and no salt. My cod was tasteless. We finished quickly to get out of there. 140.00 for a waste of a Saturday night. Could go anywhere better. We will no longer be back.
