    Vegetarian fajita. I added shrimp. I love the vegetables and the grilled shrimp is the best!

    This is my go to Mexican restaurant. The food is the best! The service is great! My grandsons always ask to got here!

    Fajitas Nachos Chicken

    I really wanted to like this place.. The reviews I had read of this place, as well as the recommendation given to me by my friend suggested this place would be really, REALLY, good. But if i had to use one word to describe this place, it would be meh. First, the salsa. It came off as heavily "tomatoey" and not in a good way. Tasted like marinara sauce... cheap a$$ marinara sauce. It lacked any kind of a kick. Maybe it'd be good with pasta but tortilla chips??? Anyway... we ordered our food and it was brought out in record time, less than 5 minutes. I ordered the fajitas nachos with chicken. While the portions were definitely decent, the meat and veggies was just devoid of any spice, and the cheese was skimpy at best. I mean the experience was definitely not horrible, but for $30 it definitely wasn't great. The atmosphere was nice, and the service was very good. But, for this quality of cooking, I hate to say it, merely lipstick on a pig. Definitely has potential though, but really needs to step it up in the flavpr department.

    Chicken Chile Relleno

    Not impressed with Margaronas. Our order consisted of Fajitas, a grilled seafood dish, a Chile Relleno, and an order of Spinach Dip. We had to order to go due to Covid19. Even though we ordered an additional appetizer dip, there were no chips in our order. We had to drive back to get chips. The so called spinach dip was basically sautéed spinach and canned corn drizzled with queso. Definitely not a dip. The Chicken Chile Relleno would have been good if the chicken wasn't chewy and tough. The grilled seafood should have been called grilled vegetables and rice. The menu description said it had a special sauce as well as Queso, but there was no sauce at all. With the many other options to choose from, I will definitely not be back or recommend this place.

    First, good service. They were able to accommodate 18 of us on very short notice. The tickets were correct and this is impressive given the number of drinks, shots, etc. The food was average...not bad, not great. We had a birthday girl with us and they brought out the sombrero hat and sang.

    Guacamaya-house made bread with shredded pork, refrained beans, pico de gallo, and avocado

    Really it was eh... Service was slow and not very attentive. We ordered drinks and the Mexican dip right after we sat down. It was a while before she came and took our orders...still no dip...then another while and I finally asked her about it and it was pretty apparent she had forgotten. The Mexican dip is cheese dip with beef and pico de gallo. It would have been good had the beef not made it really runny and kind of gross from all of the grease. By the time we got the dip we were nearly out of chips, ran out, and couldn't eat the dip if we wanted to. Another long while and our food finally arrives 1 plate at a time. My husbands burrito came out first. Halfway through that my meal arrived. When he had only a few bites of burrito left the waitress came by to see if anyone had brought his two tacos. Nope...so she had to go get those. He really didn't care for anything he had-beef burrito, steak soft taco, and hard chicken taco. Beef was unseasoned. Chicken was probably the closest to being good because it was seasoned. I had the Guacamaya which is like a torta. It was on fresh made bread with shredded pork, refried beans, pico de gallo, and avocado. I was very pleased with the quality of my meal until it started falling apart. Bread was delicious, pork was tender. I just don't think it made up for the service issues we had. They have a very unique menu so I think it's worth another try. For a fairly new restaurant in a town where Mexican restaurants are a dime a dozen there were a good many patrons so apparently people really enjoy it.

    Fried Chicken Burrito

    Decided to stop in Cullman for an evening meal on our way back from Birmingham. Margaronas Cantina had high rating and Mexican sound good so we took the couple mile drive off of I65. I tried to think of a reasons not to rate this restaurant a five star but didn't succeed. Our food was a berry good portion and the grilled chicken had a vary good taste. Cops were thin and went really well with their salsa. Salsa was not for ants had a slight lime flavor. I would highly recommend eating here and plan to be back in the future.

    The food was terrible but what was worse was when we complained we were told to eat somewhere else. VERY bad service and customer relations.

    I went here with my grandmother and my mother and it was amazing. I would recommend this place if you're in Cullman.
