I have been going to this hole in the wall for over ten years and even through some slumps in qualities or service its always been one of my favorite places. Their margaritas have been the constant of awesome and I have been advertising their amazing cocktail since I turned 21. I am now done. In the last year their has been a steep decline in service, food quality and general physical maintenance. Today even the trusty Gold Coin Margarita was ruined. Not only was the server / bartender once again cold and rude but our three identical margaritas had three very different tastes. One was too sweet, one was not bad and one was watery. We remixed them all together to get a more favorable flavor. When my mother ordered one more round for herself it was yellow and actually whiskey. I brought it to the attention of the wait staff and while I was away from the table the server took the time to explain to my husband that the mistake was entirely mine and that Im not used to good tequila. Puting aside the so many things wrong, mainly that it was definitely whiskey, but why would "another round" be different from the first? It is a sad day that this establishment is officially disgusting in every sense of the word. I hope the owners come to their senses and do a complete overhaul and remodeling. Starting with firing the rude, slow and horrible waitress that works most Saturday afternoons.

Teresas has been a favorite with the locals in Londonderry for over 20 years. Food is quite good, plentiful and the portions are huge! The menu is a mix of Italian and Mexican dishes --- with a few "American" pub standards thrown in -- all of it prepared well. Most everything is made from scratch -- no reheated sauces or pouch meals! They have some interesting appetizers as well, including several kinds of wings (the Barbados wings and Jerk wings are very good) and Chipotle Shrimp and Rhode Island style Calamari. They have excellent Margaritas too - made with juice and spirits, not sour mix!. I know a couple of the waitresses personally and they go there for dinner or to meet friends even on their days off -- to me thats the ultimate recommendation. If the people who know what goes on behind the scenes in the kitchen eat there, you know everything is great!

Ordering here is like a game show. Pick the wrong item and your bill will skyrocket! The entrance and decor are misleading as the prices are much higher than the location suggests. A standard margarita will cost you about $6. Pick a top-shelf tequila and it jumps to more than double that at $13! A basic pasta dish will run you about $10. Add vegetables and/or chicken and it jumps to $17. This might be a good place to go if everyone cant decide on a single type of cuisine, but plan on spending a little more than if you had picked a place that has a single specialty. Prices are more along the lines of what youd see in Cambridge, not a podunk NH town.

Once upon a time, this was my go-to place...I would have called it a 4 or 4.5....But the Mexican food has changed...Have had terrible experiences the last two times... Burritos that were cold, with meat that tasted like old roast beef, no flavor, with refried beans that were well past their prime. The complementary chips were cold and seemed so heavily salted, they were kinda gross..greasys, unlike prior times when they were hot and crispy...Its a shame...It was once so good. Both me and my wife are sad, but after two terrible meals and one or two that were just OK (after many great ones), it is likely we will never go back.

This is my very first review but I felt compelled to stick up for these guys. I have been going to Cafe Teresas for years now and can honestly say that I love the place. My absolute favorite is their chipotle shrimp appetizer, which I often have with a house garden salad - a nice, light and spicy meal. I have had a variety of Mexican and Italian dishes and all have been wonderful. I am a chef myself and I can say that the ingredients and preparations are excellent. Cafe Teresas is an excellent local place to hang out, sample a great margarita or 2 and enjoy some good food with friends.

The outside doesnt look like much, but the interior is comfortable, cute, and relaxing. The server brought complimentary chips and yummy fresh salsa right away. I ordered the chicken Sophia Lauren and my boyfriend had a chicken quesadilla. Both were great, and the portions were huge! It was clearly freshly made and with great care and quality ingredients. Good value for price - we will certainly return. Also a good side, the dining room was full midweek, which probably means locals like it.

Pretty good. OK customer service, free tortilla chips, but the salsa is not very good. Wildly differing prices, depending on what you get. My wifes meal was good, an Italian dish, but $16, I got the chicken burrito ($8), which was ok...it was just a pound or so of boiled shredded chicken in a wrap, no flavor at all. I cant really call it bad, it was just very...BLAND, even for New England. I dumped on a ton of hot sauce, which helped. We will be going back and trying them again.

I grew up in New Mexico, so Id like to think I know tex-mex, and I was not disappointed. The food was fresh, well seasoned, and delicious. They dont skimp on plate size either, our portions were huge. The atmosphere was friendly, our server was great, and I could hear similar compliments about the food from the table around us. I will be headed back, and sooner rather than later.

Back in the day, this was The Place to Go! Since it changed hands many years ago, the food, and service have gone down hill. But having said that, if you never experienced the old Cafe Teresas, and, you like bland americanized mexican food - this is a good stop

I have been to Café Teresa several times now and each time, I have been 100% satisfied. The food & service are great, portions are huge and the price is right. Great beer selection as well !! Café Teresa has been around for quite some time for a reason.

Food very good w/ample portions. Friendly service and no wait on food if you are that hungry! Mexican and Italian! The place does look like it is closed only due to the very dark tint on the windows.

Got Tex Mex take out for myself and the fam, how can that kind of food be served with such little flavor? I had to break out the spice box to liven it up. Wont be returning :(
