Three Margaritas - Brighton

Excellent Mexican food in Brighton! The margarita drink specials were a standout. The prices were quite reasonable, and the portion sizes were large enough to take some leftovers home. The carne asada was tender and flavorful. The staff was prompt and friendly. I would definitely go back when I'm in the area.

As for the service, it was mediocre at best. The server seemed unsure of the menu and wasn’t very knowledgeable about what was available. When I asked about fish tacos, she initially said they didn’t have any and was uncertain about beef tacos as well. It was concerning to feel in the dark about the menu, which suggests she might be a new employee. Overall, it was just an okay experience. The chips and salsa they offered were nice, and while the salsa wasn’t the best I’ve had, I appreciated its light flavors. They do have some drink specials, similar to other Mexican restaurants, and the prices seemed average—not quite as cheap as some suggest. I can only give this place three stars at most, mainly because I only tried the fish tacos. To earn four or five stars, a restaurant needs to have consistently good dishes. As an independent Mexican restaurant, I expected a bit more flair in their offerings, rather than feeling like I was dining at a fast-food chain like Taco Bell.

It appears to be a nice family place. Good chips and salsa and a solid verde. I ordered carnitas. Which were cooked nicely and came with rice, beans and guac. They served with flour tortillas but replaced with corn when asked. Service was friendly, beer was cold. A little too typical Mexican rather than a real authentic feel but good and nice people.

This is a fantastic spot to enjoy quality Mexican cuisine with the family. While they may not be flawless, the staff consistently serve with a smile and ensure you have everything you need. It's small-town Mexican food at its finest.

To be honest, the highlight was the 99cent margarita special. Not a destination spot, but better than expected Mexican for brighton.
