We tried Modern Margarita for the first time. I concur with other reviewers, it does not make sense when you order tacos all of them have to be the same with no exception.
We have never been to a Mexican Restaurant where they did not allow you to mix and match the type of "menu" taco.
The way we got around that was to have different people order different kinds of tacos and then swap them out on our plates.
The fish tacos and the pulled pork were our favorites.
The fish tacos came with pico de Gallo, spiced Aioli, cilantro, onion and cabbage. There was not a lot of ingredients in each taco which is why I only gave them three stars.
The pork taco was advertised as having: pineapple, avocado crema, cilantro, onion and cabbage. While the favors were good, we could not find evidence of the avocado crema and the flavor of the pineapple kind of overpowered the small amount of pork on the tacos.
We like that the restaurant has a sink outside the restrooms (and since there is only one of each) this comes in handy to wash your hands in-between courses without having to wait in line for the restroom.
Margarita was good but in a very small glass. We are used to a larger margarita glass in other Scottsdale restaurants for $10.00, but since it was made well it made up for the small size.
Chips warm, and were just thick and crispy enough (not over fried). Salsa had a very nice flavor to it.
Note: if you want extra salsa you have to pay, so watch how you use the very small bowl brought to your table if you want to put some on anything you order. It seemed odd to us that you would have to pay for extra salsa when you are ordering meals off the menu. For happy hour - fine, but when you are ordering dinner??
Our waiter was helpful. When we told him it was our first time there he told us a little about their menu.
We did not feel rushed for service, although we went at an off-time of day and would not expect to be rushed out.
Additionally, we concur with the other reviewer about the air conditioning. We certainly were not going to sit outside in 115 heat to be under a mister only to feel hot AND sticky as a result.
