“I love this place! Great food, prices, staff, and atmosphere. The food was delicious and customer service was great. It was my first time here a couple weeks ago. The staff helped recommend their favs which was outstanding. I couldn’t decide, so I had a few different dishes with my husband. Ice cream was perfect and they gave huge scoops. I couldn’t get enough of the salsa. I will be back and I appreciate you guys. Highly recommend.“

“We tried the Fried Ice Cream for dessert. We're taking a many years long survey of who has the best. La Vida Catrina does, IMO. Former best, now second best, was in San Pedro, CA.“

“I'm disappointed in myself for waiting so long to try this place! The restaurant is very clean and well lit and the staff is super friendly. We tried the fish tacos, shrimp tacos and pork street tacos. All were exceptional! The salsa bar is amazing with tasty salsa, crisp pickled carrots and yummy grilled onions with whole jalepeno! And the best part... the price! It's hard to find any food places open past 9pm or affordable anymore, in Bend. I'm happy to say, " We've found our new spot!"“

“Hands down one of the best sit down mexican restaurants Ive ever been to. Me and my fiancée both ordered a margarita and they were amazing and fresh tasting. We then proceeded to order food in which I ordered the Plato Aguachile and she ordered a Sope with Carne Asada and some mexican corn. Everything tasted fresh and amazing.“

“Have been here a few times for their lunch/dinner selections - spoiler, their Carne Asada is AMAZING! .. but the fact that we hadn't wrote a review before for Monarca is on us sonwe decided to write one on their breakfast selections!
We got one of their bacon burrito and a chorizo burrito, and got extra potatoes in each one which was an extra $.50 per burrito. These are their smalls - for $5.50 ($6 with potatoes) it was the size of a large burrito everywhere else which was crazy to us! The chorizo was well seasoned and tasty but the bacon burrito was hands down one of the best breakfast burritos we've ever had. The bacon was firm but soft and mashed with the entire burrito - it just sang in your mouth.
Hands down would recommend Monarca for a quick bite - breakfast OR lunch! Give them a try, they'll change the way you think about quick Mexican food!

“We stopped here on a road trip through Salem in April and again this past week. Delicious food and drinks and great salsa options as well. Very reasonable prices and fast and friendly service. I’m sure we’ll go there again next time we’re in Salem!
Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly and accessible“

“Mexican Scratch kitchen by a real Grandma! Very Very good a very reasonably priced. The tamales we moist, firm and very tasty 😋. I had one chicken and one beef. Both tasted great and they were both seasoned differently. The stake tacos were an A+.
And the owner, who runs everything by her self, is a sweet as can be. Food cart cuisine at it's best.“

“New to town and we've been looking for a really good Mexican restaurant. Tried out several, but was not very satisfied with quality of food and meat portions.
Jaimex offers both high quality ingredients and generous portions. We were very happy with the flavors, too. Very good pozole and hard tacos. We also had the tripas and lengua tacos. Can't wait to try more.“

“Solid 10 dollar value. Mexicano style add sour cream.
You know it was actually compelled to come back and update this review later. This place is consistently been really delicious food for many years and it still as good as ever.
I would even go so far as to say, it's probably one of my favorite burritos in Salem
Lately I've been stuck on the Diablo style Chicken burrito with pinto. Add pico de gallo“

“BEST Carne Asada Taco EVER!
When I noticed they had a drive-through, I stopped by this small little Mexican restaurant
But then when I saw their right next to a river and have picnic tables right next to it, I decided to go in and order and go sit by the ‘river’. Very happy i stopped ?? excellent service ss well
Vegetarian options: It’s Mexican so there’s always rice beans or something besides meat“

I needed this amazing meal. Thank you. Your a five star to me.“

“If you like Mexican food, you absolutely need to try this little hole in the wall. Google instructions direct you to a business across the street. It was not easy to fin it. They are next to a wedding store and under some gargantuan pine trees. Main draw back: no toilet, only a porta-potty under the pine trees.“

“We ate at La Margarita Restaurant and Grill for the first time recently. We have tried three other Mexican restaurants in Salem and, while the food was good at most of them, we thought their prices were very high. We were pleasantly surprised to find the menu at La Margarita Restaurant and Grill to be surprisingly less expensive than any of the other Mexican restaurants we have tried, and the food was excellent. We had the Enchiladas Carnitas ($15.00) and the Gerry Lewin's Combination ($16.00). They were both very good, served hot with rice and refried pinto beans. They also offer black beans as an option. We also each had a 16oz house margaritas ($10.50 each) which was pretty good (having lived in Mexico, we are pretty picky about margaritas). The total bill was $52.00 before the tip). We went on a Friday night and arrived at about 5:45pm (they open at 5). The restaurant was already on a wait list. We were quickly greeted and told there would be a wait of approximately 15 - 20 minutes for a table. We were seated in less than 10 minutes. The restaurant is comfortable and not overly decorated like many Mexican restaurants tend to be. The only improvement would be a larger area to wait for your table. The parking lot adjacent to the restaurant was full and we didn't want to pay for on-street parking, so we drove two blocks to the Liberty Square Parkade and parked. I highly recommend trying La Margarita Restaurant and Grill.“

“I almost never order anything other than a bean and rice burrito with salsa verde inside when visiting taquerias and similar places. So, that is what I ordered here. It's amazing the variation in quality encountered when ordering this simple item at various different establishments. La Doña's was excellent. I'll be back.“

“Have driven by this establishment many times, finally stopped. What a gem! The place is unassuming but very clean. Came for breakfast, surprisingly large selection. We got breakfast burritos. Very affordable. They were huge, and excellent quality. Did I happen to say huge? Cheese, potatoes, eggs, your choice of breakfast meats and cooked to perfection. I added refried beans, crema, onions, cilantro and the salsa that came with chips...excellent! The waitstaff were friendly and helpful to non Latinos. Would I eat here again? Absolutely 💯!!! If you are looking for somewhere to eat, I highly recommend 👌“

“In my experience, the food is served up nicely. Not just thrown together. I can tell the cooks care about the work they do. The food tastes fresh and I haven’t been disappointed with the quality or the way it’s cooked. I’ve had the same cashier several times (the name on the receipt said Mikey). He’s always been pleasant and helpful. He speaks clearly in the drive thru. I think the prices are fair. My favorite is the chicken fajita tacos. The daily specials are worth checking out. Thanks for feeding me, you guys never disappoint!“

“I ate here yesterday and the food was amazing!!! We got carne asada tortas (me and my fiancé) and half of it was the size of other places tortas. So they are huge! The meat and everything on it had such amazing flavor. I told my fiancé it’s funny that you think you’re eating good food at other places till you actually have good food and realize the rest was not as good as what you thought. That’s how good it is! Hope this helps ?.“

“The food will leave your pallet in heaven, especially the asada tacos and the birria. However the lady mostly gets side tracked visiting in back or on phone and forgets her customers have time restrictions to respect. You can place an order get there and it’s not even Taft or started. That’s very offensive“

“This place was such a surprise! We always drive right by and comment on the smoker, but have never stopped. We were missing out! The service and food were great! I asked for a few customizations and they were happy to do it for us - the homemade tortillas are so delicious!“
