Salsa a la Salsa has excellent and authentic mexican food. They are more of a restaurant than a bar, but have a pretty decent happy hour during early dinner hours, so we thought you might like to know about it. Also, if you are in the mood for tasty seafood, this is an unlikely gem we found; some of the best shrimp ever... We do, however, find the name as a somewhat falsely advertising; they only have 3 different types of salsa, leaving us with the original and unimaginative option of the Baja Tortilla Grill for our salsa cravings. They do cary out, but only serve until 10pm (M-Th) or 11pm (F,S).

Best Margaritas!

Salsa a la Salsa is one of my favorite all-time Mexican restaurants, and this includes restaurants I've visited in Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, New York and Mexico itself. I would say it's in the top 5 Mexican restaurants I've ever been too. The service is a wee bit slow, but the drinks are strong and moderately-priced. The food is great tasting, fresh and also in the mid-price range. Try any of the tacos or enchiladas, the shrimp soup that's often on special or the guacamole. Bonus points goes to the unlimited free chips that comes with not only regular salsa, but a wonderfully creamy green verde sauce as well (for free!!!).

We only come here for dinner. And it's like Mexican dinner at Village Wok proportions. Two margaritas and we're done for the rest of the night. Fabulous!

Always love my food from Salsa. Can't comment on the drinks but I have never had any problems with the service or food. Will keep coming back.

Wow! This is honestly the best mexican I have had this side of Laredo! Not cheap, but not too pricey for the amazing quality. Pico de gallo is awesome, margaritas are perfect ( and 1 is enough to knock you out), meat is delicious, and service is... authentic lol... I can't wait to eat everything on the menu.
