About Hail Mary

Tucked down a Burleigh alleyway away from highway noise, Hail Mary pairs sharp margaritas with fast-moving coastal Mexican plates. Locals crowd the pink-hued room for quick rounds of crisp snapper tacos with mango and deeply seasoned chipotle chicken. Midweek crowds drop in for Wednesday’s bottomless birria feast or the Thursday taco-and-nacho fiesta spread. The kitchen turns orders around in minutes, leaving plenty of room to linger over red sangria and spiced jalapeño poppers.

  • Alleyway Hideaway: Set back into a quiet alley off the main strip, offering a relaxed room shielded from highway traffic.
  • Signature Tacos: Crisp snapper and mango tacos and seasoned chipotle chicken anchor the kitchen's rapid taco service.
  • Midweek Feast Specials: Wednesday night brings endless birria tacos, followed by Thursday's multi-course fiesta combo specials.
  • Agave & Cocktails: Balanced agave margaritas, craft cocktails, and red sangria keep drink orders flowing smoothly.

  • Wednesday Bottomless Birria Feast

    Mid-week bottomless birria taco specials provide continuous, freshly prepared plates at exceptional value.

    We had the $25 bottomless birria tacos and they were absolutely delicious and so worth the money.

  • Thursday Fiesta Bundles with Margaritas

    Curated weekday deals bundle generous spreads of tacos, loaded nachos, and cocktail upgrades suited for shared value dining.

    The Thursday deal of four tacos, nachos of your choice & 2 drinks ($55 for wine/beer, $65 for classic margarita upgrade) for two people is an insanely good deal.

  • Covered Spaces for Large Celebrations

    Sheltered covered outdoor spaces and joinable seating comfortably accommodate milestone parties and group gatherings.

    Came here last week with a large group of 20. I think it's just such a good spot for large groups. They have a fantastic covered outdoor area where they joined tables to fit our group together!

  • Thursday Fiesta Deal

    We happened to go in on a Thursday, which had a Thursday fiesta deal. Which was enough food (just) for three people probably more suited to 2 hungry people. Such a good deal, the food was really good
