Margarita’s

We love to have our company meetings next door at Margarita’s. The food, service and staff are excellent.

If your looking for freshly made Mexican food at a great price this place is it! Great service too!

Best Mexican food on the Grand Strand great staff and phenomenal food. My wife and I come here twice a week at least!!! You will not be disappointed we recommend the El Molcajete.

LOVVVVEEE me some Margarita’s…here 21 years and it’s still the best down to earth Mexican in town… Do yourself a favor-​you go have a good meal.

The food was decent here, good portions. Only complaints I had was the salsa, it was mediocre. And the pitcher of margarita needed more tequilla. The service was good!

My parents and I dined at Margarita’s on 9÷8÷15. We were pleased to see the restaurant wasn’t that crowded at 5:15pm. As soon as we sat down, we had chips and salsa on the table. The chips were good, but the salsa wasn’t. I agree with another review that said the mild salsa tasted like spaghetti sauce. Our sever came over to take our drink and food orders. I ordered the flautas mexicanas, which is 2 chicken, 2 beef taquitos with lettuce, guacamole, sour cream, tomatoes, and mexican rice. My mom ordered the fajita quesadillas, which is steak with onions, bell peppers, cheese, with guacamole, sour cream salad, refried beans and rice on the side. My dad ordered the camarones al mojo del ajo, which is shrimp sautéed with butter and garlic, with rice and beans, and sides of sour cream, guacamole and tomatoes and a side of 3 plain tortillas wrapped in foil. I also ordered a guacamole appetizer when our sever took our drink order, but it never came to the table. Our server realized the mistake when our food came out and offered to have one made and brought out to us, but I declined.
The food was just okay. It wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t the best I’ve ever had either. My father enjoyed his shrimp and the sauce it came in. My mother thought the fajita meat was seasoned fine. The meat in my flautas was pretty bland, as was the rice that didn’t taste like anything.
Unfortunately, the service was very slow. Our server was polite, but he didn’t come back to check on us after we got our food. He only came back to give us our check, and we never saw him again. We sat a the table for about 5 – 10 minutes waiting for him to come back to take our credit card. Tired of waiting, we left cash instead and we gave our check to another server so we could leave. The restaurant wasn’t very full when we left, so I have no idea what was going on. We’ve eaten here a couple of times before on vacation and never had a problem with the food or service, so maybe this was just an off night? We’re not completely writing this place off, but it’ll probably be a very long time before we go back.

Quick service and decent food. Was really in the mood for guac and it had sour cream in it which I am highly allergic to so that was a disappointment. Husband loved the chimichangas and hot salsa.

Easily the worst Mexican food I’ve ever had. Fajita was warm not hot. Rice tasted like it was cooked yesterday. A pitcher of margaritas was flavored ice with very little alcohol. Anywhere else will be better.

Have been looking for a good Mexican restaurant at the beach. This was very very good. Sauce is really the most important part of a Mexican restaurant. Great sauce. Hot but not too hot. We both had shrimp tacos. Very good. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

Just «ok» food. Being asked by the waiter to start if we were really going to drink the water we ordered was NOT the best first impression. Apparently he was concerned because the owner was angry about the amount of water being left after meals was excessive. Margarita was weak weak weak. Ordered the beef quesadilla fajita. I’ve had much better. Salsa served lacked substance. If you are in town for just a couple of days there are plenty of other locally owned restaurants to visit before this one.

This has turned into a favorite place for me when in Myrtle Beach. I had the chicken burritos this time. Good flavor with plenty of sour cream and guacamole to go with them too. Dinner with drink was a respectable $ 15.00! Chips were warm and fresh while we waited for our meals. Good experience!

The good: The lime margarita was very good.
The bad: Longest we’ve ever had to wait for Mexican food. I had the quesadilla it was almost warm could have gotten hotter sitting outside in the sun. Wife had the spinach cream burrito which was a tablespoon of spinach and vegetables that weren’t specified on the menu. Lastly the salsa was extremely boring and not very good.

Great food! Staff not very friendly but assumed just couldnt understand english very well. We had chef specials of chimichamgas and enchiladas. Kids had fajitas. Lots of good food and was inexpensive. I had the medium lime Margarita and it was huge and good. Husband had imported beer which was good too. Great cheap meal for 6 of us $ 90.

I love this restaurant!. Moderately Spicy, flavorful salsa (they even give you a second bottle with a mild version for those who don’t like it hot). I have never had a bad meal here and I have been coming to this restaurant almost on a weekly basis for.. I don’t know how many years. The owner is a wonderful man and every waiter I have gotten has been pleasant and accomodating. The Chili Verde is my personal favorite dish. The sweet tea is excellent and their margaritas are delicious. Large portions of food for a very reasonable price. Out of all the reasonably priced restaurants in Myrtle Beach, this is the one I have missed the most since I have moved away.

Margarita should be signature drink but ours was weak and tasted mostly like mix.
Their mild salsa tasted like straight tomato sauce and the hot salsa was not hot, it tasted like what you would find mild at most places
Got beef quesadilla when we ordered chicken.
To give them credit, they did service at 15 minutes before they closed and the food was not bad just not great.
The waiter was very nice and I would probably try the place again just to give them another shot

Good food. Standard Mexican food menu (combos, chicken, beef, pork entrees, etc). Spinach and cheese quesadilla was very good and the margaritas were great! Service was quick even as busy as they were with people on the wait list at the door. The place was very noisy so not a place for a business meeting or intimate setting.

Go here every time we visit Tanger from Wilmington. I always get the Fajitas Texanas. El Cerro Grande is okay but their Fajitas are bland.
I got nervous reading reviews that they had gone downhill. Took a look at La Roca down 17 as it got great reviews but it was empty and tiny.
Went back to Margaritas and was glad I did — food was great (chick., steak $ shrimp flavorful). Wife enjoyed her margarita. Still on the must-go’s.

Great service. Food was fantastic and atmosphere was fun. Very inexpensive — especially for drinks.
Definitely give it a try. Completely worth it.

I was visiting Myrtle Beach with two friends for a girls weekend and we knew we wanted Mexican food our first night. I turned to Unilocal,my trusted friend, for reviews and this looked like a good spot. We loved it! The food was fresh and delicious, the service was attentive and friendly, and the prices were great! You can even order off of the lunch menu at dinnertime for a $ 1.00 upcharge. BTW, the lunch portions were huge! The restaurant décor was exactly what you would expect at a Mexican restaurant… vibrant and fun! We enjoyed our meals and had many laughs.
It was a great place. So great, in fact, that we went back for dinner the next night, too!

If you’re craving Mexican, I would highly recommend this place. The portions are generous, prices reasonable, and depending what you order, super delicious. I ordered «Fajitas Del Mar» (~$ 16), which came with tilapia, octopus, scallops essentially stir-​fried with bell peppers and onions. As a tourist in Myrtle, I was pleasantly surprised how much cheaper seafood entrees here were, compared to where I’m from (the Triangle). My bf was starving, so he ordered «Fajitas for Two» with chicken for $ 19.50, which if they truly were for two (and they turned out to be), already made it cheap at ~$ 10 per person.
There weren’t many people around, so our food came promptly. As the food arrived on sizzling platters, everyone said «Woahh», because all our fajita dishes consisted of THREE plates. That’s right… one for a generous helping of mouth-​watering/​cheesy beans and flavorful rice, a second plate for all the toppings (guac, tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, big scoop of sour cream), and finally a large pan that required an oven mitt that contained the seafood fajitas. My friend also ordered a chicken dish that was served in an impressive-​looking stone pot. Needless to say, the presentation was awesome given the prices, and we barely had room on the table for elbow space since most of us had 3 plates each.
The seafood itself was fresh and good, and tasted great stir fried with the onions and a squeeze of lemon. The chicken was pretty dry in all the chicken entrees though, so I would recommend ordering a seafood dish here. We were supplied with tortillas to wrap our entrees and «sides» in as well, but I was sort of disappointed that they were flour and not corn tortillas (like most of the authentic Mexican places serve). Not a huge deal though.
In summary, I was very impressed by the presentation and good value. The seafood fajitas are a must-​try: great value for the out-​of-​towner. I would recommend avoiding the chicken dishes though, since they can be a bit dry.
