La Margarita Restaurant

If you want to know what the red lobster version of a Mexican restaurant is, look no further...the food is good, you'll leave satisfied, but you know this ain't no authentic gritty, street taco truck type of joint that'll keep you alive during you're late night adventures. You have to make reservations to get the late night munchies if you wanna experience this atmosphere

We ate outside and it was such an entertaining place to people watch. Wait staff are quick to bring whatever you need. Food is fabulous along with a good variety of alcoholic beverages. Come hungry, the servings are more than adequate. I had the Birria Burrito and took half of it home even though I was fully satisfied.I have taken home leftovers every time I have gone to La Margarita.

Great choice of dining near the heart of Fountain Square! In a recent visit for dinner, the Chipotle with shrimp was my selected dish. The rice was quite flavorful, when other times & places the rice is often bland despite the seasoned appearance. The chipotle sauce and other toppings were zesty as well. Decor in the restaurant mixes modern with some rustic while managing a clean appearance, which is always appreciated. Although service was great, I found it somewhat off putting that menus are primarily digital via QR code. It's far easier to look at a menu when it's good old laminated print. Just my thinking though. All in all, an excellent meal, and like any respectable Fountain Square business, has good artistic style!

Their servers and restaurant are really quite good. As is most of their food. However, their Al Pastor tacos are the worst thing I’ve ever had at a restaurant. Almost never went back. Like seriously, they should be left out for the raccoons. Horrendous. But there are so many other great options on the menu, don’t let one bad thing deter you! Edit: I posted this a while back and just thinking about those tacos gave me goose bumps all this time later.
