Last week, the Man and I met up with a friend to sit at the bar at Maritas Cantina located off of Main Street in Stroudsburg. We decided to order a few drinks and catch up with our friend over some warm crispy tortilla chips and freshly made salsas. (MY FAVORITE!!!- In our house chips and salsa is a STAPLE food supply and sometimes a meal! LOL) The drinks were cold and strong… just what I needed after a busy day at work. I ordered a Skinny Margarita that was made with agave nectar tequila (my personal fav.) If you are a tequila drinker like myself try this stuff… Milagro Tequila… its delish! It was also made with fresh lime juice, fresh orange juice, a lime wedge, and of course a salted rim! SOO GOOD and less calories/bitter taste then those pre-made mixes. YUCK! After devouring 2 baskets of chips we decided to order our dinner. We sat at the bar and ate which I enjoyed. I ordered the pinto bean burrito… it was so good, but after eating so many chips I only ate half. (don’t worry I enjoyed my left-overs the next day for lunch-while making co-workers mouths water!)
The food at Marita’s is always good and I love how you get an endless amount of chips and salsa while you are there. (Like I said, I often can make that a meal!) I also love how reasonably priced their menu is. My burrito cost me a whopping $6.95!!! You can’t beat that price at a chain like Moe’s or Holy Guacamole… the service is usually decent, my only downer is the atmosphere isn’t reminiscent of what a Mexican restaurant should be… I actually miss the decor of what the OLD Marita’s Cantina looked like.
With that said, Marita’s is actually one of those go to restaurants that the Hubs and I frequent often… I would definitely recommend it to someone who is looking for some savory and spicy food and for a good time at the bar. *** Marita’s has $0.50 beer specials on Friday and Saturday nights from 10-2am… come on people you can’t beat that anywhere!!!!!
