Was there last night after a long long time and was pleasantly surprised.. The food wasn't too bad .. Just the right quantity and the service was nice and personable.. We (me and a couple of my girlfriends) ordered from their vegetarian menu and split the dishes.. They were really gracious abou bringing us extra dishes and all.. The waiter was also good about re-filling our drinks.. I didn't have my ID on me, so, couldn't order a margarita, but, my friend who did said it was good..
Pros: Fun Place
Cons: Could get crowded on weekends

As the level of food quality and service continue to escalate in Waltham, Margaritas continues to slide. The space and the location on the Charles are great, but the food and service are not at the same level. There is a large number of waitstaff always willing to sing "happy birthday" but not nearly as willing to clear your dirty plates. The food is bland and represents the fact that Margaritas is a theme park more than a restaurant. If they focused as much on the food as they did on handing out mariachi hats, they would have the best Mexican in the Boston area. Not worth the trip, unless you just want a Margarita and chips at the bar.
Pros: Margarita, chips, ambience
Cons: Service, Food

I have been to Margaritas several times and have enjoyed the food and drinks, but some of the staff are the rudest I have ever dealt with. They also now seem to cater to a smoking crowd, who surround the entrance (covering you with their filthy smoke when you try to enter) and who think their entire party can come and go from the bar for large periods of time and expect their table to be theirs when they return. The management needs to do something about this or they are going to continue to lose patrons.
Pros: food, patio
Cons: smokers, bartenders

I am a local and have been in a few times. The food isn't that great, although the restaurant itself and outdoor patio is just beautiful. The ambiance is fun and the drinks are yummy. I would only go for the scenery and drinks.
Pros: Ambiance, outdoor tables, drinks
Cons: , food, food
