I'm concerned if I tell you how great this restaurant is, there will be a long line for me to wait on when I go back Small storefront restaurant with nice decor. It looks new, but I'm told it has been there 16 years The service is friendly, professional and prompt. The menu is large and includes some unusual dishes. By unusual I mean traditional Mexican dishes you won't find on most menus, not that fusion nonsensePortions are HUGE, food is delicious. The Sol Ranchero, Avocado Rolls and Paella were all outstanding, the guacamole was prepared in advance and "so-so"A single order of sopapillas for dessert was enough for 4 people Prices were reasonable and the parking lot is hugePlease don't go, I don't like long lines

Fine Mexican cuisine in an elegant and modern environment. Our decorations and food make you feel like you are on vacation. We serve Long Island's best margaritas and have a live Mariachi band Friday thru Sundays. Having a special event? Bring your guests

Went to this place a few times now. However, as we were leaving work around 3:45 we decided to stop by for happy hour. Unfortunately, the bar was so crowded there was nowhere for us to sit or stand around the bar, so we decided to get a table only to find out that if you are not around the bar we cannot get the happy hour prices. We did not that stop us though even though we had to pay full prices for drink. We also ended up ordered full plates from the menu. Needless to say foods and drinks are always good here. You wonât be disappointed unless you are looking to do happy hour and there is no space.

Margarita Cafe catered my nieceâs bridal shower. Three different entrees were ordered, my brother picked the orders up; the order was ready and well packaged. We had the chicken fajitas, Mexican falditas, and the arroz con pollo. The sides of refrained beans, black beans, guacamole, pico de Gallo were excellent. The restaurant also included salsa & a tray of freshly made tortilla chips which were crisp & not salty. The falditas were delicious, skirt steak nicely seasoned and tender. The chicken fajitas also were tasty & the grilled white meat was very tender as well. The arroz con pollo was tasty as well. I liked that the food was seasoned but not salty. We had a group of 30 woman and had plenty for everyone. Surprisingly, a lot of the food was eaten; I think everyone really enjoyed the food from Margaritaâs Cafe. Iâm looking forward to having a meal at the restaurant the next time Iâm in Wantagh.
