    Wonderful!

    Wonderful! This describes the entire experience at La Margarita Co. The service, drinks & food were all wonderful. Servers were friendly & attentive. Drinks were cold & refreshing. Food was served hot and very flavorful. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the current economy. We tried several dishes and were pleased with it all!

    They forgot the herbs and spices

    Four of us went here for my birthday last week. The only one who was pleased with the food was the person who was afraid it might be too hot for her taste. The rest of us found it VERY bland and lacking in flavor. We had chili relenos and enchiladas. I'm told that even the salad was ho-hum. As for the margaritas, the blended ones, serves in a highball glass, were difficult to drink but at least they didn't skimp on the alcohol. But overall we were very disappointed, considering the good reviews we had read. New cook? Bad day??

    Our Favorite Salem Restaurant

    Delicious food, tasty drinks - especially the Pedro's Margarita, and the best staff in town who always make us feel like family.

    Great food and service.

    I hadn't visited here for years, so I was eager to see if it was as good as I remembered. I was hoping for jicama instead of the commonly served chips, but no jicama. The chips and salsa were good though. I ordered a chili relleno, and it was excellent! The black beans were wonderfully seasoned. The only real disappointment was the margarita, made with top shelf tequila, but the mixer(s) they used gave it an unappealing taste. Too bad. I will definitely return for another relleno!

    Very good authentic Mexican

    A short 3 block walk from the Grand Hotel. Some of the best Mexican food I have ever had, including our vacation to Mexico.
