I was born and raised in sunny Southern California and will never tire of the West Coast, although I spent several years living in Southeast Asia, about as far from California as you can get. Wherever I am in the world, I love straying from the beaten path, experiencing local life, and discovering hidden gems - camera in hand. The beach is my happy place and when I am not there (or writing), you will usually find me baking, watching movies, and cuddling my pugs. I have traveled around the country and around the world, and it never, ever gets old. Being able to combine my passion for travel and my love of writing is nothing short of a dream.
If you find yourself in the mood for a really delicious burger in Nevada, the last place you may think to head to is a Mexican restaurant. But, in at least one case, you may want to think differently. At this Mexican restaurant, where most people undoubtedly go to enjoy the expected chips and salsa, tacos, and burritos, you will also find burgers worth ordering.
Margarita’s Mexican Restaurant is located inside Prospector Hotel in the little town of Ely, Nevada. Customers love Margarita’s for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and enjoy the friendly service whenever they choose to dine.
… and, naturally, some mouthwatering authentic Mexican dishes, like enchiladas, street tacos, fajitas, Chile Colorado, Mexican rice, and refried beans.
But what you may not expect is that this highly-rated Mexican restaurant is also a place to get an excellent burger and fries! The burgers are juicy, piled high with fresh toppings, and served on a pretzel-style bun. The fries are fresh cut with the skin on, wide and thin for the perfect crispy texture, and served hot.
In fact, you can also get a delectable Ribeye steak served with a Latin flair, spring onion and pepper-topped, with sides like Mexican rice, refried beans, shrimp and mushrooms, and more. For seafood lovers, the menu also offers fresh salmon and lobster among other options.
Regardless of what you order, you are going to want to order some of the highly-rated avocado salsa with chips. This fresh, spicy salsa is a true fan favorite.
If you are in the area early in the day, the traditional Chilaquiles breakfast is a must-try! Or you can opt for an American classic - ham and eggs with homestyle potatoes.
