I've heard a lot of neat things and have seen a lot of amazing food pictures from Las Margaritas. My boyfriend and I came here for dinner with our friends and luckily, the restaurant was quite empty so we were able to choose anywhere we wanted to sit.
The restaurant was quite spacious, but with minimal decor. Staff was friendly and helpful. The food I had a love/hate type of feelings.
Chips and salsa – these were complimentary and the staff gave us a complimentary basket of tortilla chips and salsa which was quite tasty.
Fried Pork & Lamb Tacos – these were the tacos I ordered, but I only tried the fried pork taco because the lamb taco was very spicy. The fried pork tacos were delish! The fried pork was really crispy and had an excellent crunch to it and that was the BEST part! Unfortunately, the rest of the taco wasn't mindblowingly delicious. I felt it was rather mediocre in terms of taste. The tacos from Las Margaritas are similar to the ones from Tacos El Bronco, but the taste and the size is different.
Beef Tostadas – I've never had a tostada before, but I was curious so I ordered it. The presentation of it was beautiful and vibrant. The beef tostada was delightful with so many layers of flavors, textures, and colors. I would order this again.
Horchata – I accidentally ordered a large horchata, because past reviews said that the small size is really small. I really enjoyed the horchata because it was very refreshing, cool, and not too sweet. The perfect drink for a hot night!
Other items our friends ordered, but we didn't try –
* Chicken Chimichanga
* Beef Chimichanga
Both the chimichangas were huge! I was very impressed.
* Cactus
This is the first time I've seen a restaurant served cactus. Our friends ordered this and tried it, but my boyfriend and I weren't as daring as they were.
Sweet Plantains – as a side dish, we also ordered this and they were cooked perfectly, but I wished there was more of a crunch to it.
Overall, I am glad we tried Las Margaritas, but I felt the quality wasn't as great as the food from Tacos El Bronco. It felt like there was a missing touch. The chances of us returning here would probably be 50/50.
Had a craving for tacos and came upon this restaurant on yelp. Placed the order through yelp for a carne asada taco, pollo asado taco, and carnitas taco. Received an email saying the order was confirmed and was given an estimate of when my food would be ready for pick up at the restaurant. I actually arrive earlier than the estimate, but my food was already there waiting.
The tacos were bigger than other places and appears savory. The tacos were loaded with ingredients, especially guac. My favorite out of the three tacos was the carne asada. It had a good amount of beef. It was delicious and palatable. The other two tacos were great tasting also but it did not stand out like the beef tacos.
Overall, this restaurant makes some solid tacos. Would love to try their other food next time and hopefully it is as delectable as the tacos.
I'm here at least once a week and I always get the same things. This is the first time I've ever been this committed to a restaurant establishment to the point of dire necessity. If I don't get my taco fix for the week, all hell breaks loose in my craving scale.
That said, I haven't tried too many things on the menu even though I've been frequenting on a weekly basis for 2 years now. (Yes, I ordered from them when they were the Tiny take out place across the street). Now that they're 100 feet closer to our apartment, even more reason to order often..
The tacos here are bomb and they're substantial. They definitely don't skip with the meat and that's why they have me coming back so often.
The best in order:
Al pastor taco
Carnitas taco
Lengua (beef tongue)
Put a ton of lime on it and you're good to go. I always get a side of guac because well it's guac! I've also had their platters and fajita and sandwiches. All are okay (not great) compared to the tacos!
If you're feeling a little tropical, grab some drinks. Their piña colada is pretty good.

Solid Mexican restaurant on 3rd avenue, probably on par with a competitor closer by but with a cleaner though more industrial decor. Good spot to drop by for a casual meal.
This place is incredible!! Super authentic Mexican food and extremely affordable!!
They start off with chips and salsa. Let me tell you, that salsa is most fresh salsa I ever had and the fact that its free?! love!
I ordered three tacos; the lengua, spicy pork, and barbacoa. I think all the tacos were less than $3. You could never find such good prices like that in the city! The tacos are so filling! They do not skimp out on the ingredients, and unlike Chipotle, in Las Margaritas Guac is not extra.
My friends and I also ordered a pitcher of Sangria for $30. So fruity and refreshing!
I can't wait to return back ,and devour even more food and drinks. Hands down, the best mexican spot in Brooklyn.
There are days I just crave a FEW tacos. I stepped inside Las Margaritas and decided to order three tacos to go, a beef, a chicken, and a carnitas (pork). I liked that they all came with some guac, fresh radishes, two different hot sauces, and they were all substantial.
I would recommend the beef and the carnitas if you are thinking about getting only two. Service was great and quick.
I would recommend this place to anyone that is craving a taco or two or three….
Honestly found this place to be mediocre.
I think this place has moved at least twice in its lifetime to about 2-3 different locations in a one block radius which is weird. I also remember this place being better when it was on the other side of the street.
The first thing I had was the mojito which was good but wasn't fresh with the sugar cane. The Pina coladas tasted as if their was no liquor in them so was not too impressed with that either. For food I ordered a chicken taco and a carne asada taco. The only thing that really appealed to me was the fact that it was loaded with guacamole. Other than that nothing memorable to me. I also had an empanada and it was extremely dry and the chicken was not flavorful. Im less than impressed with this place. I didn't really think anyone I was with was thrilled with their food either. Not sure if they have a new chef after moving but Im no longer interested in coming here.
whoa probably the best chicken fajitas ive ever had from a restaurant. seasoned so well, so tasty and not cheap with the chicken. and the fajitas were so warm and delicious. delivery was a little slow but they did warn me that it might be at least they were honest. I'm definitely going to go back to sit down and try some of their tacos. if they beat tacos el bronco they have a loyal customer for life
