Great experience with an amazing Mexican food. Their service is amazing as well and the decor of this restaurant is fabulous.

Margarita with $4 chips and salsa
Cecilia M.

Haven't been to Las Margaritas in many years but my boyfriend and I decided to do a day in the Kits neighbourhood and he inquired about the restaurant and we decided to go for lunch. The restaurant was barely half full on a Saturday lunch and was disappointed that their famous salsa and chips are no longer complimentary so sucked it up and ordered what used to be free and paid $4 for an order. My boyfriend ordered a drink and the chicken burrito and I ordered my usual seafood San Blas enchiladas. The San Blas enchiladas used to be on the regular menu but the menu has been severely cut down. The San Blas now only is served with fish and shrimp but it used to be made with crab, fish, and shrimp. Decent size portions but definitely smaller now - can definitely note all the cost savings measures they are taking as it's getting tough in the restaurant industry. The chicken burrito my boyfriend ordered was good but the burrito was rolled and exactly the same size as my two enchiladas when a burrito order should be one big wrapped up tortilla with meat in it. Decent tex-mex food but with more authentic Mexican options all already the city it's getting harder to remember coming to this old joint.

Margaritas

Very happy to find this place to begin with which has a ton of vegetarian options. We went on a Friday and the restaurant seemed pretty busy and it looked it was under staffed. We started with salsa and Gauc. Pretty standard and did the job. The margarita drinks were strong and it was good. We ordered Mini Chimis and quesadilla in appetizers. While Mini Chimis was a new thing and really crunchy, quesadilla could have been better. I always like if the quesadillas are made out of bigger tortillas and then cut into Pieces. In this case a taxi tortilla was used to make the quesadillas. Moving on, everything on the main course was a hit. Veggie Fajitas tasted very delicious and it has salsa on it making it tangy. Beans and an extra side of rice went well it. Veggie enchiladas with the red sauce was just perfect. Very well Cooked and tasted great. The Mexican rice is vegetarian at this restaurant and that was a relief. Overall very happy with this one and will come back again. Parking on the streets for $3 an hour.

First of all the coveted patio, while amazing, does have a bit of a wasp problem in summer! The good news is the staff makes you aware of that. The hostess did a great job for us. Honestly, the service is what brings me to Yelp today... Our server, Harry, absolutely made our lunch exponentially better by guiding us toward what we were looking for. The tequila chicken salad recommendation was perfection. So delicious. I couldn't decide, Harry helped me. My son had the carnitas - isn't a fan of refied beans, nor rice ... so we got him two a La carte!! No waste AND less expensive. Yay Harry!!! Salsa and chips are so delicious. If you love hot salsa hit up the habanero it's best when mixed with regular salsa and a few squeezes of lime. #menuhack!

Very happening n popular place with locals. Big line ups for take away too. We also got table after 30 mins wait but thanks to their phone msg set up ( u get a text wen its ur turn so u can go to explore the area around or shop little bit) Big space in the restaurant n pretty decent patio. I would say its much better to be seated on their patio as you get to enjoy the side walkers n twinkling night lights along with food. (Its less noisy too) Ordered vegetarian enchilada n chips with avacado salsa. Rice in enchilada plate was better then everything else. Cocktails were strong n chilled(all time favourite margarita) Been to many many mexican restaurants in states and in canada as well. There is always free salsa n chips which was not available here. I mean you have to order ur salsa n chips as starter. Whatever. Good place to have mexican food.

Fajitas - bland
Jacqueline W.

This place has gone downhill unfortunately. Haven't been here for probably 3 years. Food was bland and kind of tasteless. When I came in for lunch, it was fairly empty (mind you it was a weekday). Expensive for what it is and it doesn't taste authentic. The taquitoes were underwhelming. The fajitas (got chicken and steak) lacked flavour. Food did come out hot and service was fine. Would not return.

Share happy hour menu Happy hour from Monday to Thursday 3-5pm Good location, good atmosphere.

Watermelon Margarita
Dana S.

After getting them delivered several months ago, I recently ended up here with a friend as the place we were originally looking at was too busy, but neither of us were at all disappointed that we ended up eating here. Our waitress was very friendly and just attentive enough, and the food was once again delicious. The restaurant itself is really nice too, they're nicely decorated inside and out and there's lots of room on the patio. I had their Combination 2 with the veggie enchilada and chile relleno. Everything was super tasty and flavourful, including the refried beans and rice on the side. Just enough bite and crunch to the chile. Besides my entree I also had their watermelon margarita and chocolate cake. I actually wanted to order a piña colada but they were out of cream of coconut. Disappointing, but I had been eyeing the watermelon margarita anyway and it was a great drink - I think they use watermelon puree since the drink had a slightly slushy-like consistency. Chile salt around the rim was a nice touch. Cake and the thick layer of frosting were super rich and plated beautifully (everything was, but especially this). Portions generous all around. What I got this time was worth the money, but I still think some of the menu items are overpriced. I hear their salsa is delicious and would have loved to try, but they don't do free chips and salsa which is a little disappointing, although it is only $3.25 to order them as an appetizer.

You know that patio that always gleams in the sun and whispers casual good time while you're cruising down west 4th trying not to rear end a bus or a left hand turning vehicle? Well, this is the place. You're welcomed through the door by a refreshing interior that feels curated rather than contrived. If you can block out the obnoxious Spanish techno version of a classic Britney Spears song humming in the background, then this place is a gem. The service is casual and the food feels authentic Mexican with a heavy emphasis on deep fried. Most importantly, the classic margarita is an understated way to get that Sunday afternoon buzz, promising a good time without making you feel like an alcoholic. It even makes the music sound apropos.

my favourite...the chiles rellenos with all rice, no beans...so good!
Wanda Y.

las margaritas is a fun and casual place for great food and great service. I've been coming here with friends for 35 years now and we always have a great time! sit outside on the sunny patio or sit inside to enjoy the mexican vibes. you start relaxing as soon as you're seated. tortilla chips and salsa are served on the house, and drinks will soon follow. their margaritas, virgin for me, are winners and so is my favourite chile relleno. las margaritas are a kits icon for a good reason!

Food was lukewarm and tasteless but the place is packed. Go figure. Even the 7up wasn't mixed right.

My new favourite Mexican restaurant in Downtown Vancouver. The best service I've ever had at any…read moreMexican restaurant and the ambiance was cozy. They had a 4 for $21 taco deal which had a few taco options to choose from and the churros were delicious too.

Bar seating & several table booths. More of a drinking establishment vibe in my opinion. Staff…read moredid the bar minimum. Sat us down, took our orders and brought us our food then quickly brought the bill so they could change tables over. The Margarita here was excellent. Definitely felt like a strong boozey drink. Well done! Tried their Chilaquiles - not sure what I was expecting but this was more nachos than anything else. Definitely not the best in the city either. Maiz De Cole - strangely the best option that I selected. The chilli, lamb, cilantro just went so well. Great light option if you need one. Definitely not better than a good Mexican street corn though. Birria Taco - wanted to like this but didn't leave much to be desired. Large portions of protein Ordered the extra Birria as my date also wanted this. Looking back, should have stuck with the single order. It was way too much birria protein which after a few bites became overly dry and lacked flavour. Carnitas Tacos - come in a order of 2. Better option for smaller appetites. Overall, felt a bit steep in price. Their website online doesn't even post prices yet.

So good from start to finish. Everything we ordered hit, and I already know I'll be back to try the…read morerest of the menu. Service was great. Our server was attentive and around when we needed something but never interrupting, and his recommendations ended up being some of our favourite dishes. The anchovy olives were a standout, super crispy, packed with flavour, and not overly fishy at all (great if you're a bit hesitant about anchovies). The mushroom toast was rich, savoury, and full of umami. Just a heads up not to let it sit too long since it softens the bread. The tuna tartare was fresh and well-balanced. Not my personal favourite served on toast, but still really enjoyable overall. The paella was excellent, perfectly cooked shrimp, tclams, and crispy pork belly chicharrón that added the best salty, fatty crunch. The roasted cabbage completely surprised me and was easily one of the best veggie dishes I've had in a while. I could have eaten a whole plate of it. We wrapped things up with churros and shared a pitcher of sangria. For three people, it came out to about $68 each before tip, which felt very fair for how much we ordered. Would definitely recommend.

The service was friendly and prompt but we were a bit disappointed by the food…read more We ordered the meat and cheese plate and they did say one of the options was fattier, but it was essentially a strip of fat (as you can see in the photo). As well, the manchego was so tiny it was like a shaving . The bone marrow amounted to about three teaspoons of marrow. We were so sad and dissatisfied. The patatas bravas was okay. Unfortunately we do not have a reason to return.
