The front room at Margarita Mama's is decked out in the style of a slightly beat-up Mexican village, with flour sacks adorning the walls, weathered brickwork and large signs touting tequila brands. The food fits the bill: on the menu are huge quesadillas, with a three-cheese blend and a choice of fajita vegetables, fajita steak or grilled chicken; and Chicken Ranchero (boneless chicken breast topped with salsa and served up with onion rings). At the bar, specialties with a tropical punch include Mama's house margarita (Gold tequila, Triple Sec and fresh lime juice) and pina coladas fresh from the blender.
As you might guess from the pool tables and brand-new TVs (including one huge wall-size baby), this place is a sports bar. It's full of college students and recent grads, with plenty of long tables perfect for hanging out. On busy nights, the beer's on ice in tubs around the room, so you don't have to head to the bar. In season, the front opens up to expand the party.
For pulsing lights and music, go on back to the Iguana Night Club, where DJs, including the crew from KISS 96.1 FM on Thursday nights, do their thing. For an extra fee, check out Iguana's VIP lounge, where you can rest on comfy couches and chairs. The sports bar, meanwhile, has a small lounge where you can enjoy the same comfort (and get up close and personal with two plasma TVs) without paying extra. At Margarita Mama's, it's nice to know that whatever the weather, spring break is alive and well.

Roxyduq - 08/04/2008I'm glad this place is closed. I was sick of seeing blood being splattered everywhere from the fights that broke out.

But Margarita Mama's is closed...... C-L-O-S-E-D, CLOSED!!!!!!
However for a really fun night out, give Saddle Ridge -- just down from where Margarita Mama's WAS -- a try! A great mix of country and southern and classic rock, great barstaff, a great DJ, and on weekends between 7-9, FREE dance lessons by the club's instructor team made up of 5 of the best dance instructors in the Pittsburgh area. YOU WILL learn to dance and it's a great time, too! Totally unpretentious, reasonably priced cover and drinks, AND a mechanical bull.
So if you didn't get the memo and you make the trip to Margarita Mama's just to find the lights out, the music quiet, and the doors locked, just walk a few feet down the sidewalk and step into the hottest rockin' country saloon going..... You won't regret it!!!!CLOSED
djqwikpgh - 07/02/2008Yeah, this article has to be old, because Mama's is closed as of a month and a half ago. It's deadsville.
did i miss something?
spicypisces1986 - 03/19/2007what is all the hype about? maybe i came on the wrong night, but it was weak.
So-So
stephy0118 - 07/23/2006Wasn't too impressed with it. Typical bar/club set-up with some pool tables. Drink specials weren't too bad. Seems to be popular with the bachelorette parties since there are usually about 5 or 6 each time I have gone there. Try it out sometime though.
Just worth it
xixtankxix - 01/19/2006Worth the drive, worth the money... flat out the place is just worth it... a blast!
Amazing
