“My mother and I came to fill a prescription at the Rite Aid and decided that we wanted lunch. We decided that maybe trying somewhere new would be good! We found this place, and were pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and setting. We were seated quickly and served chips and salsa as a snack before the meal. The chips and salsa were great! But the main dazzler was the tacos. My mother and I both had the salmon tacos. 3 come in an order, and I must say, they knocked it out of the park with the flavor of the salmon. The sauce that had a lil kick to it and the sauce it was served with on the side was also quite tasty. The service was great and the food excellent! Highly recommend!“
“Service was wonderful and quick.Vegetarian options: I had veggie quesadillas and it was very generous portion.Parking: Parking lot in the back and no trouble finding a spot. No need to park on Main Street.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to maneuver. Roomy seating.“
“The tacos with brisket are the best thing to order if you are staying to eat. If you are getting food to go they can get soggy so I would recommend the crunch wrap instead for preventing that! The service is always helpful and will even bring your food to you outside via the window and are great with recommending items. The overall setting gives like a small taco hole in the wall spot unless it's nice out and you sit at one of the picnic tables then there's a nice big open yard area that's not too crowded! The indoor area is painted with beautiful murals and different merchandise for sale. If you are in the mood for the best nachos in Beacon go here!“
“So I’m sitting here finishing my tacos ? so full I’m ready to burst , but I still want more . Hands down the very best tacos I’ve ever had in my entire life. And it’s very affordable. I will definitely be a regular customer now . Come eat here if you haven’t, I promise you won’t regret it and wanting more .“

“Wonderful little spot! Little bar and small dining room...needs more decor, but I like it. Great selection of beer, cocktails and appetizers! Happy hour daily, 2-6pm with beer specials!The complimentary chips and salsa were amazing...Best birria around, hands down...We had the birria tacos and the quesabirria...Sooooooo delicious!Try this hidden gem soon! (We came back again two days later for an encore and tried the Alambre plato and chorizo tacos!)“
“This has become a dangerous place to live so close to because it's so delicious! I recommend the chicken Torta (no jalapenos if you don't like spicy). Their food is delicious and the staff are so polite. Their burritos are super yummy and if you love empanadas I absolutely recommend the beef and chicken.“
“I guess we are becoming regulars at this place. Food and service are consistently good. Portions are huge and very affordable prices! Last time we went our son wasn't in the mood for Mexican food but we dragged him anyway and he end up getting chicken wings, and I tell you, oh, my, those chicken wings were great! Very crispy and tasty! We had ordered in the past steak tacos, guacamole (we ask less on onions), different enchiladas, steak. I only didn't like pork tacos.“
“My husband and I are new to the area, but coming from California no strangers to great Mexican food. This little gem does NOT disappoint. We had the Rose Sangria, the Parillada and an amazing salad. We will be regulars at this place for sure.“
“Best tacos in area by far, skip hudson taco and come here. Not to mention great owner/chef who is always warm and friendly. New restaurant is beautiful, clean & airy. Not too far off the main strip and in an area with cute vintage stores. Only place I’ll go for tacos now!“
“I’ve been to Cilantro twice. It has mixed reviews, but I’m not one to be scared off by those. The first time I had the enchiladas de mole poblano y pollo. I try mole often because I love chocolate and the idea of it in a sauce intrigues me. Cilantro’s mole is the best I’ve ever tasted with a richness and depth of flavor I haven’t had elsewhere. My husband had the chicken taco salad and was impressed as well. They did not skimp on the chicken and it didn’t taste like Cisco chicken. Last night I had the black bean and mango salad. It was good but I ate some of it with chips as it was sweet and their salsa is sweet too. House margs are $1.50 off during happy hour - bringing them to $8.50 at the time of this review. José was attentive and my meal came quickly last night.“
“Delicious tacos and tortas. Everything very fresh. Chicken cutlets are amazing. Five layer Nachos and homemade mole sauce look so good. Service is nice and friendly. Small family run business. Will definitely return. Great parking, easy access in and out.“
“This was one of the best burritos I’ve had in my life! All fresh, and made from scratch! My husband had the Carnitas and I had the chicken and we both loved it! The service is great, and the food tastes like home! We highly recommend this place :)“
“We ordered take-out for the first time tonight ... WOW! We tried a lot of different things from the menu and split the portions amongst our family of 6. The food was absolutely incredible! Authentic, delicious, and a perfect blend of spices! Their "chorizo" is to die for. We cannot wait to place our next order!“
“Wonderful local spot for authentic Mexican food. From the basic rice and beans to their slow cooked mole enchiladas, I've always enjoyed eating at Las Margaritas. The service can get a little slow when they get busy, but it's a great little restaurant that serves delicious food!“
“If you want great service,food and atmosphere in Mexican with great drinks this is the place for you !!!Kid-friendliness: There very understanding when it comes to childrenWheelchair accessibility: Front doors are wide open, tables are at a good height“

Chips, tacos, stuff kids like and moreWheelchair accessibility: Roll on in and enjoy“
“We took a group of people there and really enjoyed it. We are very used to Mexican food having traveled extensively in Mexico and also now live in San Diego. Mexican food is hard to be in San Diego this place came pretty close. Even though we had a very large group took excellent care of us. We especially liked the fajitas in a couple of our people hadn't had them before and says that will be there go to dish from now on.The service there was amazing it seem like every two minutes someone was by asking if we something.I highly recommend this place like to take some pictures unfortunately the battery died did not come out.Parking: open.“
“Amazing, authentic Mexican food prepared and served in a timely manner! The grill is literally just a few feet away! Street tacos for the win! Great fajitas and salsa! Verde sauce added the perfect ouch to anything we enjoyed. Highly recommend!“
“So yes, we LOVE Mexican food!! We try a lot of different Mexican restaurants... this one was good, but have had better. The Queso was a little different than we expected and rice didn't seem to have as much flavor as others I've tried but everyone has their days. I did like that you got rice with tacos though. The place was nice, a bit tight, but still a great atmosphere and feel. It was a bit busy so service was a bit slow.“
“My wife and I had Flores cater our wedding in October. We had the best food experience with the Flores team. We absolutely feel in love with the menu at our tasting and the food at our wedding was cooked to perfection. We got married at Locust Grove, which has a full kitchen setup.Our guest raved about the food for weeks! (We’re still hearing about it from friends and family). The beef tenderloin was fantastic, our guests raved about how perfect it was cooked, a true feat especially when prepared in mass (150 guests). Everyone loved the chicken empanadas, the mojo chicken, the charcuterie cones, and the tuna tartar. We opted for a vegetarian pállela for our vegan/vegetarian friends and it was a hit. The deal was sealed when everyone lined up for seconds of dessert, Flan and Ice Cream.The staff was also exceptional and we want to shout out Melissa and Danielle for making it the best day of our lives. Thank you Austin for making it the best meal for us and our guests. We highly recommend going with Flores for your wedding our other events.“
“Hacienda is a really cool restaurant! Authentic decor, delicious large servings and excellent service is what this restaurant is all about! We stopped ourself and enjoyed every bite. The guacamole is out of this world! Not a bad dish in the whole place. Check it out for yourself.“
“Ok,,, i actually can’t express how great this place is. They gave us free quesadillas, free dessert, and a free shot?!! Not saying this will happen for everyone, but even other than that it’s a really fun place with good food, drinks and service.“
“ordered: quesabirria, chicken garibaldi bowl, loco platter, churros, and cheesecake chimichangaabsolutely amazing and super authentic, i have nothing bad to say. everything was freaking delicious and id recommend this to anybody. chicken bowl is a must try. the worker is also super friendly and attentive :))ethan is very attractive.“
“Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in the area, and possibly the beat Mexican food I have had; easily in the top 10 anyway. on Friday through the weekend they serve their Al Pastor tacos and cemitas. I'm talking about fresh, cut pineapple, a proprietary secret spice blend from their home town of Puebla in Mexico and incredibly fresh ingredients. The price is so cheap for the amount of food you get in the quality of it.“
“Give it a try since I had yet to have Latin food in the area. Very friendly here and happy to make sure your order is correct here. I got a large order of stewed chicken with yellow rice and black beans, plus two beef empanadas. Stewed chicken was tender and moist, feel right off the bone good and it really soaked up the gravy sauce, like carrots and potatoes. Yellow rice was fluffy and lightly seasoned, black beans were good, not much on them. Now the beef empanadas, they best part of the meal, the outer crust, was fresh and flaky, I love well seasoned crust and the filling, plenty of beef chucks and ground up beef, I like it was mix of two rather then just ground beef. Dipping sauce was amazing for the empanadas, very spicy and savory.“
“I had the steak burrito and my girlfriend had the chicken burrito. We came from NYC where theres a plethora of Mexican neighborhoods and honestly, these burritos were on par with some of my favorite burritos back home. The steak and chicken were juicy, and the burritos themselves were huge; the portion and flavors combined made the price worth it 100%!Will definitely come back here next time I visit“
