    Nachos not so good. Won't order again. I'll stick to the chile rellenos and molcajete and margaritas. I will say I wanna come for taco Tuesdays and their premium tequila ~ the duke

    Had a hankering for mex. I've been to the one in Newington and was hugely disappointed. This one was good! Service was like lightning. I hadn't even gotten my butt on my seat and there was chips and salsa in front of me! I got a steak quesadilla and it was yummy, not one piece of gristle, perfectly cooked. Love the combo plates. Wish maybe for a little more kick, but I realize how fussy the general public can be. Coke products!!

    I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Authentic Mexican food in Concord. The chips were nice and crisp and salsa had great flavor and wasn't spicy at all. My wife had the chorizo, eggs, beans and rice. I did the #1 combo that came with a taco, two enchiladas and beans OR rice. I have never been tasked with having to choose between beans or rice. That's like having to openly admit who your favorite child is. Regardless, I chose refried beans and they were excellent. All in all this place would be better than 90% of the Mexican restaurants in Fresno, CA.

    Came here again twice now and both times we ordered the same thing we had the first time. Both times it seems as though they put much less meat in the bowl and the quality of the meat is not as good as it was. It has also been very greasy and fatty. Quite disappointed as I am actually leaving a little on the hungry side.

    The ONLY reason to come here is the awesome drinks margaritas especially!! However the service is horrific! We try to give them a fair chance because we love the margaritas her. They seriously need to start focusing on the customer and touching tables,,, NEVER, should a patron have to wait to order their drink! Nor should they have to wait for another with an empty glass in front of them for more than 5 minutes! And before anyone starts in on this whole Covid thing, my evaluation is solely on every experience we have had here. Before Covid until now, we have had horrible service. The food could use work also, I seem to get a tummy ache every time we get an appetizer here. We love their outdoor seating and the inside is beautiful. I honestly believe that if they worked on the areas I mentioned this place would be a grand slam! For now it's a pit stop for the drinks alone! If you want a good strong frozen margarita come here as long as you are good chasing down a server to get you more!

They took our drink orders quickly and brought out the chips and salsa. As always I asked for an extra salsa dish cause I'm super messy. The guy said sure and left but no salsa bowl arrived. The waiter came a minute or two later and so I asked him. He said oh sure and left. He returned quickly and im assuming got distracted because he forgot it too. He said he'd go get it after he put in our order. We ordered and waited and I finally flagged him down again. He did bring a bowl just as they arrived with my husbands food and my side of rice and beans. I guess the cook messed up and so after I finished the beans and rice my tacos arrived. They were very good and he did offer another plate of rice and beans but I told him I wss fine. My only complaint is that I felt they should have taken off a part of the meal or when they offered the beans and rice said it would be no charge. The food was good but the experience was a bit disappointing.

    It's nice that Concord has some food venues open past 10 pm on a week night…read more We hit up Margarita's in part because it was open after the Magnetic Fields show at the Capitol center and in part because I wanted to see the haunted jail cells. They only have the bar area open during late night -which is totally understandable. We were thrilled that they were offering a full menu! The one in Keene doesn't after 10. That being said- We did not like the fajitas. They were not spiced the way we expected fajitas to be spiced. They weren't terrible - Just not what we wanted. Other people in the restaurant were talking earnestly about how much they liked the food... so maybe it was just us... It sounded like we were surrounded by their regular crowd. They had some great beer selections on tap and I happily tried the local favorite Concord Craft Brewings Safe Spaces IPA. So good. The cocktail list also looked quite good. Our waitress was holding court in the way late night pub (Cantina?) waitresses do and she did a great job. We never waited long for anything and she clearly kept a light happy mood for the regulars. Though we couldn't eat in the cells, no one stopped us from going to look at them. So that was fun. No ghosts were seen. Maybe next time.

I'm a Die Hard fan of the Quesorito myself, and someone who I'd had access would probably have one for lunch every single day, but Taco Bell refuses to recognize this and has you order it through the app. This location specifically will lock its doors to the dining room early so you can't come in and pick up your mobile order. Which causes you to wait in line because they won't make it if you aren't there. This is such a pain in the ass every time and the consistency on this item has gone down severally. In the past 3/5 times I've been here the rice has been uncooked in this specific menu item. I had 1 time where I had to order one 5 separate times in arrow to get the rightfully made Quesorito. I don't even know if it's worth going to, which makes me sad because this is truly a love hate relationship we have here with Taco Bell.
