Great service Delicious food Will be back soon Very clean The steak is off the hook read more

The decor of the tables was amazing, we had kittens on our table, but they were all super cool. I loved it. The service was pretty good, just a bit slow, but not overly so. The margaritas were good. The cheese dip said it had jalapeños in it, but it wasn't spicy--still really good though. The salsa was yummy as well; I loved that it was chunky. My sister got the beef nachos and really enjoyed them, especially because there was a lot of cheese. I got the vegetarian fajitas, and they were super flavorful. I loved that they gave four tortillas along with plenty of rice and beans. We will definitely go back when visiting that area. read more

Excellent spot. Above average Mexican food and service for a group of 5. Combo Fajitas, Chimichangas, tacos, margaritas and queso. All great. Good chips and salsa too. Service was spot on especially since it was late on a Thursday night. read more

After an awful 3 Hour drive from the east coast of Florida, having a tequila drink definitely improved my mood. Met up with some friends and this was where the meet up ended up. We sat at the bar and since it was in the middle of the day in the middle of the week, we ordered off the lunch menu. I ordered the taco salad with steak and shrimp. This was my first meal of the day and I definitely needed to overload on protein. Unfortunately, I should've ordered the dinner version of this because the lunch version was so small. I was still hungry and started eating the taco bowl. My drink of choice was tequila and soda with added jalapeños. I like a little kick with my drink, and he definitely made us a beautiful drink with bits and pieces of the jalapeño consuming the glass. That's the way my drink should always look. The service was pretty slow considering we're sitting at the bar. It could be my frustration of that god-awful drive or the fact that I had nothing to eat yet, but I definitely thought the service was slow. Overall, this is your typical decorative Mexican restaurants with their typical food options. Would I go back, absolutely. How do you say no to tacos and tequila? You don't because that would just be insane. read more

I ate here 2 x in 2 weeks that I was visiting family in the area. The service is fantastic, food comes out quickly and it's hot and fresh! Large amount of tables and seating. The bar is huge stocked full of all your favorite tequilas. I ordered the fajita quesadilla with steak. Huge portion stuffed in the tortilla. We also had a few of the chicken lunch dishes and the chicken was so tender. Beans and rice are also good as well as the guacamole- yummm read more

We were on the road, and wanted Mexican so we googled this place and it had good reviews. We started off with margaritas and they brought chips and salsa - was complimentary, because we were ordering food. We also ordered the queso dip - was delicious and table side guacamole. Our server was so nice, very sweet, with a great smile. All of our food came out very quickly and was delicious. My husband got the grilled chicken burrito lunch special- and cleaned his plate! The restaurant was clean and very open... all of the chairs were wood- carved with brightly painted Mexican images... it was a fun, bright atmosphere. read more

Sat outside with our dogs - lovely shaded location. Waiter was friendly and service was fast and food was delicious! Inside decor is beautiful art and colorful. Love the sinks in the ladies bathroom. read more

Stopped here for a quick lunch with family. Chips and salsa were on point... very tasty. Menu is a little overwhelming, but there is something for everyone. The place looks like a Mexican cantina, the decor is cool! I didn't have a bad experience, but we didn't get a lot of service outside of getting our order, bring the food, and to go box. read more

Popular Tex-Mex Restaurant offering a great atmosphere and responsive service that ultimately fails to serve great food. Chimichangas, aka fried burritos, is a celebration of opposing textures and flavors and unfortunately they fall short here. My chimichanga wasn't crispy next to rice that wasn't fresh. However, I recommend the jalapeño cheese sauce on the side as it gives the dish almost passable contrasting flavor. Taquitos were bland, hard, and somehow still not crispy. Perhaps they were over-prepared before cooking. And, there wasn't enough meat even on the overly small serving size. All wasn't bad as the salsa was fresh and the chips were ok. Unfortunately we didn't leave well enough alone. read more

Great ambience, kind and courteous. Great service. Food and drink menu options are good. Food is delicious.

For me this Mexican food restaurant is average. But being originally from Arizona where we had outstanding Mexican food, I didn't expect a lot. The atmosphere was great. The service was very, very decent, but the food lacked flavor definitely on the milder blender side of Mexican food. read more

Stopped at Las Margaritas while passing through Ocala we only had tacos, and they were simple, authentic, and packed with flavor. Loved the warm atmosphere and colorful decorations it felt festive and welcoming music is on point. Friendly, efficient staff made it an easy, satisfying stop. Highly recommend if you're driving through and want great Mexican tacos or anything in their menu. read more

The food here was soooo good and I love the chairs. Best salsa. I wish it was closer to home so I could come all the time

Great food, good prices and super friendly and respectful staff. They have seating indoor and outdoors, and lots to look at. For me the best part is the Modelo on tap, they have both dark and éspecial, it's FANTASTIC!!! read more

I normally wouldn't give a bad review but this is the first time I've ever gone to a Mexican restaurant and left hungry. I ordered off the dinner menu and the portions were small, not worth the $13.99 I paid when I could've gotten an all you can eat Chinese buffet for the same price. No side dish rice, refried beans. 4 small enchiladas in sauce for that price was nuts. I won't return because I expected more like ever other Mexican restaurant I ever been to. read more

We went last night 12/4/2025 for dinner party of 6, the ambiance was okay, then started to get crowded and noisy...I order a Mojito drink but it has no taste, glass full of ice, no minced mint and can't taste a bit of Tequila .I told out waitress about it, and I ordered the second glass it was worse just ice cube, no mint but drops of lime and a spoon of soda, a drop of alcohol...That's really disappointing and sucks...I had a piece of meat left over from ribs barbecue took it home and heat it up for the next day dinner.....oh boy I've been having stomach ache as we say directly to the toilet for a few.....will never go back again...... read more

What we love most about this restaurant is that we always know what to expect. The food is consistently delicious, the service is consistently friendly and fast, and we consistently leave happy and full! This is a delicious Mexican restaurant, our local go-to, and it never disappoints. The place is decorated so nicely, it's like taking a vacation without leaving your hometown. While we sit and choose from their extensive menu, we marvel at how quick the service is, how the food is hot and fresh, and how we are never made to feel rushed despite this restaurant always being packed. Great little Mexican restaurant! read more

Disappointing and Lacking Authenticity Tried Las Margaritas for the first time, and unfortunately, it was a complete letdown. We ordered the shrimp quesadilla, grilled chicken salad, chicken soup, and the quesadilla appetizer. Every single dish lacked flavor. The chicken quesadilla was especially underwhelming--thin, barely any meat, and made with overly processed, salty cheese that didn't even melt properly. As someone from Mexico, I was honestly shocked they would call this a quesadilla. Nothing tasted fresh or authentic. Even a fast-casual place like Chipotle offers better quality and flavor. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant and definitely won't be coming back. read more

Very authentic Mexican! We were afraid it was more like a chain restaurant, but that is not the case! Had a vey tasty cactus salad and fish tacos were perfect. We also had poblanos that were stuffed with a little too much cheese. Drinks were good but they could have been a little stronger. Decor is very nice, and clean. Terrific service as well. read more

This place is very good for what it is (non challenging Mexican food and margs) . Someone in the kitchen is making really tasty mild salsa and fresh chips (free) and really great, really spicy roasted pepper salsa that you can order for a slight upcharge. Chili relleno & Chile Poblano both very good, chicken mole enchilada also very good! Been here mostly on road trips so haven't tried the margarita. The service is fine. read more

The service was excellent and fast. I absolutely loved the artwork on the walls, and the food was incredibly delicious!

Excellent service. Excellent food. Birria tacos and tamales were awesome. The price was reasonable. I will keep coming back here!

The waiter was very nice. The margaritas were 2 for $9. The meals were $11.99 each. Everything was reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. I kept wanting to eat more but I was so full. I had vegetarian combos. I will be back. I couldn't believe how affordable and delicious everything was. The salsa tasted homemade. My cuban friend said it was the best salsa he ever had. read more

The waiters were kinda rude didn't give good service, he dropped one of the plate of appetizers on the table & didn't even say sorry, unusual for the typical nice floridian. The food was not so flavorful, it was bland. We like the decors tho. Sorry but we're not going back read more

This place is incredible! We were in town for a few errands and this restaurant was located in the shopping plaza. The chips and salsa were delicious, and the salsa was individually served in a small refillable vase. We tried the fajitas and a seafood dish, as well as fried ice cream for dessert. We had a tamale for an appetizer, but it was small and dry. I wouldn't order that again. The entrees were hot and delicious. Service was great - we never had an empty glass. The interior decor is so fun! Lots of bright colors. Amazing atmosphere. We will be back. read more

All employees wore a mask. Very clean, colorful & friendly restaurant w/ a huge bar. All social distancing measures in line. Referred to us by our good friends. Located in a shopping strip that will be nice when everything opens up to walk about. Edgar, our server was excellent. The best Strawberry Daiquiri w/ no cream or sugar as we requested. Salsa comes out in a little glass bottle w/ chips & two serving bowls for each of us. I like the idea of the glass bottle & a bowl for each person so your not always asking for more. The tomatoes in it were sweet & lots of onions, which we like it a bit chucky & flavorful. Shared the Hawaiian Fajitas, which is steak, chicken, chorizo, onions & pineapple. We asked for no bell peppers & tomatoes. Next time I'll do no veggies so it'll be all meat. The pineapple wasn't sweet either & were tiny tidbits. Other than that, the food was delish as well as service. read more

Stay away. Go to Las Carreta's or La Tienda. Or Taco Bell. Highly Americanized Mexican that it is the furthest from Mexican . Tied with La Fiesta by I-75 for a consistently subpar dining experience, especially service. read more

We came here on a Saturday evening which probably isn't the best choice because man were they busy! Tons of people waiting in the lobby and outside. They said it would be about 20 minutes which isn't bad at all considering the amount of people that were there so we were fine waiting and made our way to the bar, which we were lucky to find one spot at the end for Ben's Mom to sit down at and we stood behind her. The bar service was fast and offered up their 2 for 1 beer to Ben and 2 for $7 wine for his Mom. I will say that if you are waiting for a table, being in the bar when it is busy is probably not the greatest idea because they just call out numbers and though we were on the end closest to the lobby, I didn't hear one number being called out so after so long we had Ben go stand in the lobby until we were called. In total I think we waited 30 minutes. Once we got to our table we got some chips and salsa and then our server found his way over to us and asked about our drink order. The service was slow with him and I am not just saying that because they were busy but him himself just worked as if there wasn't any rush with anything our entire time being there. Not sure if that was just his way of not wanting to turn over his tables more to not have to deal with more people or not but I watched other servers flying around the place and tables that came after ours get up and leave way before we did. The menu is huge! They do have everything in one so for lunch items you'll just have to pass over that part. I ordered the Burrito Deluxe, Ben the Steak Fajitas, and Ben's Mom did the create your own combo (3 items) with two crunchy tacos and refried beans. The food came out pretty quickly after the order was placed (food runner) and Ben's fajitas were sizzling hot. Ben's Mom dove into her tacos right away so I couldn't get a picture of those but they came out nicely in a taco stand so that the ingredients didn't fall out. My burrito came with rice and refried beans and was topped with sauce, cheese, sour cream and lettuce. My first bite took me back to my favorite Mexican restaurant back home in Michigan so I was instantly a happy camper. The the price point of Ben's fajitas ($15) he got a lot of food. His steak had good flavor and there was enough for 5 made fajitas, 3 of which he ate there and took the stuff home to make 2. Overall, this is a great Mexican spot in Ocala to eat at and the value is completely worth it. We will definitely be back with Ben's Mom when we are up visiting again. read more

Chili relleno was like snot but the tacos were good. What made it terrible was the waitress. She continuously asked us if we were done yet, rolled her eyes when we asked for a box for our tacos & she had so much grease on her bangs that you could've fried a dozen eggs on her forehead. I didn't want her near my food. Used to be a regular but never again. read more

No enjoyable food or (namesake) margaritas here despite our hopes. Service is quick. But food and drink is flavored by salt or sugar beyond extreme for lack of flavor. It's like gradeschool kids are in the kitchen. It fills the stomach but it's not dining. read more
