Had a great time having dinner & drinks w/ my daughter and her bff after a family event nearby!

It's nice that Concord has some food venues open past 10 pm on a week night. 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. read more

Food was a 3 out of 5 at most we ordered a side of fries and it was the one thing that everyone ate and liked. Several things were mistaken in the order. Service was slow and made several mistakes read more

Margaritas main appeal is the fact that it's in the old jail - depending on your table you may be in an old cell. It's a cool and unique atmosphere and it's interesting to explore the maze as it seems like a pretty big space. Everyone we encountered was very nice, including our server. He was super friendly and our food came out quickly. We started with queso and I tried the margarita flight. The blood Orange Margarita was great, as was the cran-apple infused one. The peach and traditional margs were just okay. The queso wasn't very good but the chips were solid. I tried the quesadilla and my partner got chicken tacos. The quesadilla was average, nothing to write home about. The tacos were just okay. Overall the food kind of let us down here. If you want to come for the experience, I think that is the way to go, but don't expect anything to rock your tastebuds. There are worse places though, so if you need a bite to eat, it will do! read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Concord, New Hampshire

Really cool place not a big fan of the food. They had chunks of onions in the salsa and barely used salt in anything. I had chicken taco and shrimp taco. I liked the shrimp taco but it lacked seasoning and the chicken taco had no taste at all. It was an okay one time try read more

Margaritas used to be a pretty solid choice for local Mexican food. Not the best, but pretty good. Tonight we were disappointed though. We sat in one of the old cells for the ambiance bc my son had never experienced it. Our server was great. No complaints with her as she was very friendly, and seemed on top of everything as far as taking our orders etc. However, I ordered the chimichanga and it was very overcooked. It was brown and very crunchy to cut into even. My son ordered the kids burger, and it was the opposite. Quite undercooked. Way too pink for him. The margaritas weren't very good either. Unfortunately we left, feeling underwhelmed. read more

We Stopped in on a weekday after 3 o'clock for happy hour. Margaritas were very good, had chips and salsa, baby chimichangas , taquitos and queso all were good.Service was quick, place was clean. Will be back. read more

While coming back from Vermont we decided to try Margaritas Mexican Restaurant. In the restaurant all the Covid-19 rules were followed. Even the server before giving us the menus sanitized it and we were given a specific table. I really liked the atmosphere as well as the decor of the restaurant. For the first chips and salsa were given. This salsa was different than the other mexican restaurant as it was fresh plus chunky and little spicy. For the dinner we ordered Hector's quesadilla and cheese enchilada with chicken. The service was fast and our food came in next 10 minutes and even the server was very good. She treated us very well. The food was good and we loved the food. Ratings for the restaurant: Decor and Atmosphere: 9/10 Covid 19 Rules: 10/10 Behavior of the server: 9/10 Delivery: 9/10 Food: 8/10 read more

Best place in town hands down in concord to have a fun time and the atmosphere here is great!!! Will be back!! Nikki is the best!!!!! Great server here read more

Food was alright, waited hour and a half just for my food to not show up, waited another 5 mins and it did, french fries were pretty plain didn't taste like nothing the bill here is crazy, and it's very hot. Bathroom has only 1 stall with a fuck ton of people here, yes the wait time is because how many people are here but it just sucks. The building has a very nice structural integrity but that's about it. The chips were also wayyyy too salty, I'll cut it a little slack because I was already a bit pissed. read more

Tip: there's a parking garage across the alley and it's free on weekends! Great experience. Our waitress was lovely and thoughtful. Such a unique building- really fun. We had a great meal and a fun time. read more

Tuesday afternoon spur of the moment whim for a margarita. We ordered tacos not realizing it was "Taco Tuesday " We were seated promptly by the cute hostess and Colin took our order. Wife got the margarita flight and I the draft Dos Equis. Food was prompt hot and delicious. We love the old jail cell room ambience and music was nice and not too loud. Best quick bite afternoon lunch in a while. Thanks! read more

The service took to long I was with a big party so I think that the people would know that we were there the food was good and it was a nice experience if you are small ask for a cell when they are giving you a seat if your not small ask for another seat read more

This place was pretty alright. Nice people and very attentive staff. The salsa was actually fresh as were the chips. The guac didn't impress but it was fine enough. Solid drinks and good company. The best thing was the music. They had a great soundtrack on and that made all the difference. read more

Who would've thought dinner in a prison would be so good. The history of this place was certainly fun and I enjoyed the layout though maze like at certain points. The service here was fantastic. Came with a large group of folks and appreciate the speed at which we were sat - also sat away from gen pop so that was a good move (as we can get rowdy). The margaritas were particularly delicious. Many of my group got the spicy jalapeño margarita, which were extremely tasty with quite a bit of heat. I myself got a prickly pear marg which I thoroughly enjoyed. The menu had so many things that looked so good, I really had a hard time choosing but went with a chicken quesadilla and I really loved it. We had a member who was gluten free in our party and our server was so helpful in ensuring she had her own chips, and that the kitchen knew to take special care. The chips and salsa kept flowing all night, which was appreciated, and we generally had a fantastic night. Highly recommend! read more

Nikki was great. She's the best and provides great service with a smile! Will be coming back. Food is also delicious!

We came in after 10 o'clock and they had a limited menu, mostly snacks. My husband is gluten-free so there wasn't much on the menu. The bartender, Nikki was so kind she went in the kitchen to see if they could make us something else. Andrew, the manager came out and offered us a salad, beans, and corn salad, after traveling several hours it's exactly what we needed. We will definitely return to this restaurant. Service was amazing! Definitely get the chips and salsa! read more

We stumbled upon this place after forging for food all night. The interior was designed with a Spanish flair.... we retreated to a relaxing couch by the fireplace...it was warm and cozy. And with a pepino in my hand it was a perfect end to a tiring day. We ordered quite a bit of food, the nice thing was almost anything on the menu can be made vegetarian... the veggie chimichanga was so delish!! Crispy crispy goey cheesy pouring from the inside and some veggie stuffing... I added some hotsauce from the tacos to give it some extra spice. The tacos come in 3s made any way you like, crispy hard shell or soft shell corn/ flour... we had one of each and you can also pick the 3 sauce to mix match and customize to your pallet. It could end up being a boozy night- flights of the month,affordably priced....fantastic idea. Service was really slow but in good company it was totally fine. read more

Overall, the food isn't great and drinks are overpriced for what you get. Cool setting in the old city jail, but that's pretty much the food doesn't make it worth it in my opinion. Service can also be slow, but workers are nice! I'd recommend a more local Mexican restaurant. read more

My granddaughter & I arrived at 545 pm Saturday 3/22/24...we were seated in one of the cells...we waited 15 minutes for Nicole, our server to acknowledge us. 1st words were do you want a Margarita??? No, obviously I am driving with a child.....duh! She brought chips and the overly salty salsaat 600...which makes you thirsty....but never brought soft drinks until 615 pm...another couple sat in the cell next to us at that time and were treated extremely well...getting salsa and chips immediately along with 2 beverages in under 10 minutes....we ordered our food at that time...... our food was a kids taco, we asked for sour cream...got zero and mini chims with chicken that arrived at 645 pm, no chicken in my chims...I did tell Nicole that we had a food allergy to green bell peppers....she assured us that there will be none in our food....my granddaughters had 3 large green bell peppers in it!! I asked for manager, I explained our experience and he shrugged it off! A total useless Manager....Do not waste your time or $ at this restaurant...HORRIBLE SERVICE AND SERVER NICOLE IS A STEALER...HAS THE NERVE TO KEPT THE CHANGE FROM MY CASH PAYNENT....THIEF!!! If you like the smell of urine, please use the ladies restroom...it's a special experience too! read more

Overall, the ambiance of the location immediately upon entry was incredibly disturbing. Upon entering the establishment, the staff was not friendly at all upon seating us and put us all the way in the back corner passing many open tables. We were then, given mediocre, stale, tortilla chips that tasted like they had been sitting in the back of the cabinet for about six months. The salsa was flavorless and I had better salsa at the Chili's right down the road. The food itself. I cannot speak on because I didn't stay long enough to be able to try it, but had a bite and it tastes reheated and not at all what I expected from authentic Mexican cuisine. Even my buddy Juan, was disappointed in the lack of care and attention they put into representing his culture and their cuisine, there is a lot of cultural appropriation at this establishment. Proceed with caution! read more

Margaritas Mexican Restaurant - Taco Bar - Mexican Near Me - Concord, New Hampshire

Delightful evening. First time at this place. We were actually going to a different place and we passed Margaritas by chance. The historical building and the soft, amber lighting inside, made the place very beautiful and pleasant. So we decided to go inside and we weren't disappointed. As a matter of fact we had one of the best dinners in our four years in New Hampshaah. First was the service. Our waiter was Ian B. By the end of the evening we thought we were at home. His care, great attitude and pleasant demeanor helped make our evening as a family. Second was the ambiance. A historical picture police station where the guests dine in the old jail cells complete with bars. Third, the food was superb. First it was the Margaritas served four different ways for was one of us. Then it was the carne asada. And the nachos. And the tacos. And more Margaritas. We had daughter and her boyfriend visiting from DC and this place facilitated a most pleasant evening. read more

Came here for a work dinner and really enjoyed it! Apparently the building used to be the old Concord jail, which I thought was super cool! We came during Market Days with a reservation, and it was nice having all the booths and live music right outside. There were a lot of margarita options, and the flight was a cool idea! Also happy about the vegetarian options available, the Enchiladas Banderas was delicious. Our server checked in on us frequently and was able to split our check 9 ways. read more

Our party partied the night with a party of margaritas.. a flight if you will.. four vibrantly assorted beverages that left us enthralled for the next course. The apps came out glistening radiantly as if touched by god herself.. or maybe it was George the ghost.. Nibbling politely was not an option! The only thing more delightful than the food was the constant feeling of spirits breathing on the back of my neck. But I found the company rather charming as I don't have much human contact in this lonely time of my life. 9.3/6 stars would recommend. read more

Giving one star is generous! Stay away really bad service and then the manager came out and lied to us. We waited 1 hour and 20 minutes for our food. Five tables came after us and got our food before we did. I think the waitress never put our order in, she was young. Another waitress brought out food out, but my meal was missing. We never asked for the manager I only mentioned to the waitress that the time was not acceptable and pointed out the other guests that sat after us and were leaving before we even got out food. The manager came out and said she was short staffed, fine, but that wasn't the reason we didn't get our food. Then she got upset with me I wasn't upset she was belligerent, I didn't even ask to see her. I have written a note to their corporate offices about my experience, not okay! read more

Allie, your host, is superb. She is such a peach and she sat us very efficiently. Your food is good too.

New Hampshire's take on Mexican food. What a joke. Rice and beans were trash. The Jalapeño Baby Chimis were the only thing decent on the menu. I'm glad they couldn't mess up the Soda. The rice was hard and not mixed all the way through with the box recipe they use. The beans were not tasteful at all. Had to add salt to both. The chips and "Salsa". Mmm, tomato soup. No spice or no flavor. Asked the waitress if there was anything spicier and she laughs and says; "The tapatio". If this is what the owner thought he was enduring while being in Mexico, he should Go back and figure out what seasonings are and what flavor is. Bland food. read more

30 years ago I visited. Still the same place. Same kind of food, Mexican. Solid choice. We has an enormous amount of chips. The guacamole and salsa were fresh and very good. A margarita was just terrific, if you like the idea of margaritas at Margaritas. read more

Mexican restaurant located inside an old police station. The jail cells have become little individual dining areas. Each cell has one table for up to 6 people. There is a dining area for larger groups and people with claustrophobia. The food tasted great but seemed to be limited to your typical Mexican fare. The prices are reasonable and the portions are generous. I would go back. read more

Margaritas used to be so great but sadly they've gone down the toilet. The one star is for the building, which is an old prison turned restaurant. Our food was bland and gross, and of very bad quality. Overpriced and just nasty and flavorless. Service wasn't good either read more
