About This Place

Nestled in the heart of Murfreesboro, Margaritas Mexican Restaurant and Cantina offers an authentic Mexican dining experience that feels both vibrant and comforting. Specializing in classic Mexican fare with a family-friendly atmosphere, this restaurant invites you to savor bold flavors crafted with care and fresh ingredients.

The menu features an enticing selection of dishes that celebrate traditional Mexican cuisine with a modern twist. One of the standout offerings is the “Haz Tu Propia Combinación” or Make Your Own Combination Dinner, which allows diners to customize their plates by choosing three sides, always including the beloved rice and beans, with the option to add a rich, creamy salsa de queso for an extra layer of indulgence. This flexibility makes it ideal for both adventurous eaters and those who prefer classic tastes.

For hearty appetites, the “Grande y Alto” Chimichanga Casera is a must-try. Imagine a golden-brown, 12-inch flour tortilla brimming with tender chunks of steak, creamy refried beans, and melted cheese. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch, balanced by cool lettuce, zesty tomatoes, and dollops of tangy sour cream, all complemented by the familiar warmth of Mexican rice and beans.

Beyond traditional plates, Margaritas also surprises with new creations like the Tazón De Arroz—a savory bowl where Mexican rice mingles harmoniously with steak, chicken, and fresh vegetables, all crowned by their signature cheese sauce, lending a luscious, velvety finish. Likewise, the Tamal De Fajita offers a comforting, large tamale smothered in your choice of steak, chicken, or a combination, delivering deep, nuanced flavors in every bite.

The dining atmosphere at Margaritas Mexican Restaurant and Cantina is warm and lively, perfect for families and casual gatherings alike. Guests have noted the attentive service and prompt seating, adding to the inviting ambiance. The presence of live music and karaoke nights enhances the overall experience, crafting a fun and festive environment that keeps patrons coming back.

Customers consistently praise the restaurant’s fresh, hot dishes and balanced seasonings. One customer remarked that the pork and beef options were “extremely good,” highlighting the skillful preparation that brings out authentic Mexican flavors. While some guests have experienced minor hiccups with service or seating arrangements, most agree that the quality of food and the welcoming vibe outweigh these small drawbacks.

Whether you’re craving a comforting meal reminiscent of home cooking or a vibrant night out filled with flavorful dishes and celebration, Margaritas Mexican Restaurant and Cantina stands out as a Murfreesboro gem.

    This was some of the best Mexican food I've had. They were very attentive, there was a light crowd that night. I would highly suggest this place and you will definitely see me back see you soon.

    Food was delicious. Server didn't understand some of my questions,but still made sure we were happy. Only downfall was seated close to restrooms. Other than that, definitely recommend.

    Was greeted promptly upon entering. Seated very quickly and waiter was less than a minute taking drink orders. Food was good. Everything tasted fresh and hot. Want to go back and try the 3 foot burrito. There was a bit of delay with the waiter misplacing one of my colleagues credit cards or would have given a 5 star. Highly recommend giving them a try.

    I had a pork burrito, beef quesadilla and beef taco. The absolute best pork I've tasted eating Mexican food. In any restaurant or anyone's house. The beef was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Like extremely good. What's stopping the 5 stars you ask? I didn't see anywhere on the menu that the burrito would be wet. I didn't like the sauce over it. My taco also had a few bell peppers my wife picked out for me as I ordered meat and cheese only. And we were going to try some margaritas seeing as that's the name of the restaurant, they are a bit overpriced. But the food that I did eat was delicious and I'm thinking of going back today.

    The food was pretty good. The drinks werent the best but i think they were short staffed. Its a fun place with live music and karaoke too! Ill be back to give them a second chance. Seems like a great place when they have more than a couple waiters.

    Beautiful Restaurant with Authentic Mexican Food and Servers. Excellent Service that was enjoyable. The Pineapple Fajita was delicious and all so filling! And the Margaritas are so frosty, cold and flavorful. I really like the Strawberry flavored for just $1 more;) Fun place by yourself or with a huge group! Free Chips and Salsa as much as you need or want also. Plenty of Parking and easy to find.

    A Mexican buffet! The food was tasty and the service was outstanding. If I had to complain about anything it would be that I'd like to see the food a little warm. But all in all a must stop when you're in the area or looking to sample different Mexican entrees..
