Reviews for Modern Margarita in Chandler, AZ
We love Modern Margarita so much. We have been going to the new location at least twice a week since the opened. Our last time... there I got a taco I have ordered many times before but it didn?t taste right. The bartender noticed my reaction to it andoffered to get me another one. The manager came over to talk to me about it. When I told him I?ve had that taco many timesbefore but this one didn?t taste right, like the meat was bad, assured me he checks the line 2x a day and smells all the meatbefore it?s cooked. He kept going on and on about how there is no way anything was wrong with it. I finally just said ?Ok? andstopped talking to him because it got so uncomfortable. He also was making fun of a thin woman at the end of the bar. Callingher a skeleton behind her back. There has been a lot of feedback from the people I know that go there often that he makescustomers uncomfortable and doesn?t treat the staff well. Read more
I love the location. I was so excited to have something trendy! Margaritas are great! Food is great! The service is so horribly... slow that we question going back. We waited 37 minutes to get drinks at a bar that was not full. Even longer for refills. Andnot friendly bartenders at all. We hoped for a neighborhood place where people would know our names. Def not that. But yummyfood. We?ve been 3 times so far and had the same experience. Will try again. Read more
Unimpressive first visit. We arrived on a non-busy Thurs happy hour. Sat for about 15 minutes before asking a server (who had... passed by us several times) if there was a server for our table. She went to get another server as we were not her table. Wewere just about to leave and walk over to the Tryst but wanted to try some food. After ordering a margarita, which was about 3-4sips with all the ice, we ordered a couple appetizers. We waited over 30 minutes to get the food. Whatever was on the steaktacos gave it a musty after taste, maybe too much cilantro? But seriously tasted like soap. Loaded fries and tostadas were good.Our server was friendly. They charge a card fee. $60 dollars later we should have went to the Tryst. Bummer because we were soexcited to try Modern margarita! ???? Read more
Margaritas were so disappointing and we purchased three in different price points and all were equally disappointing. The food... was expensive for the quality. The queso was something other than queso very disgusting. The ambiance and decor were great! Overall was hopeful for a better experience. Read more
***UPDATE*** I love Modern Margarita. The food is solid (I love the chips and salsa) and the drinks are fantastic! Even more,... the staff has been consistently awesome. I go often and all staff are awesome! Special shout outs to Chera, Devon, Nikki, Terra,Sarah, and manager Chandler! Easy 5 stars! ******** None of the below reviews are recent or of this brand new location. Thisis a review for MM that just opened at the intersection of Gilbert and Ocotillo. It was literally day one, so the slow servicewas expected, especially with the place being completely packed around 3pm on a Friday. I sat outside at the bar. The interiordecor, bar layout, bar seating and outside seating was nice and modern. Service was professional and friendly. The margaritaswere very, very good. I tried the blood orange and the mezcal margarita and highly recommend both. They have standard as well asfrozen margaritas and other cocktails all around the $10-$14 range with one or two around the $18 mark. The chips and salsa isaround $3.50 but very good. A large bowl of fresh, homemade, thin, salty chips and the salsa was also delicious with a hint ofheat and smokiness to it. I ordered three a la carte tacos at $5.50 a piece; shrimp, miso mahi, and fried fish. All were verygood flavoring. All in all, Modern Margarita is an excellent place to grab some good drinks and tacos. Definitely on the higherprice range. Service was friendly and I?m positive the speed will pick up as they get their footing. It?s a solid 3.5 a 4 starsright now with potential to get even better! I will definitely be back! Read more
Thought everything was awesome. Started with some margs and some chips with queso/house salsa. The salsa is really great and has... a lot of flavor. Queso was really good too. My fiancé had the loaded fries they were delicious. I had a chicken tinga taco andmiso carne taco. Both were fantastic. Wanted to order more but filled up on chips. Will definitely be back. Read more
Had a great time with Tracy as our bartender! They have lunch specials daily and happy hour specials Wonderful margaritas and... had the best nachos. Well worth it and will be back soon! Read more
I was so excited to hear we had a local margarita place coming. I have been three times and the food is great, the margarita... are great (wish they were larger three sipes and your pretty much done) and the decor is spot on. However, the reason for onlyone star is the service is terrible. Bartender was not personable all three times I have been there. I will tell you if theservice and worker are not great this place won?t survive and I really want to see it survive! I hope management can retrainthese workers. Read more
