Salt or no salt? Either way, here are $1 margs for National Margarita Day
National Margarita Day is on a weekend this year, and that’s probably best.
Saturday is the day to search for the best margaritas or the best deals, whether you like yours with salt or no-salt:
▪ Chuy’s Tex-Mex, the Austin-based chain, will upsize any margarita to a “grande” for $2 and add an extra tequila floater for $1. Chuy’s also serves “taco fries” with taco beef, jalapenos and queso only on Margarita Day.
(This does not apply to the little local Chuy’s Restaurants by the same name.)
▪ The Dallas-based On the Border Mexican Grill & Cantina chain offers $2 house margaritas, with 99-cent floaters and a premium 1800 Grande margarita on the rocks for $5
▪ Dallas-based El Fenix Restaurants will offer $1 small margaritas.
▪ Fort Worth-based Fuzzy’s Taco Shop will serve $3 rocks or frozen house “Fuzzy-ritas.”
▪ Dallas-based Blue Mesa Grill will serve top shelf margaritas with Mi Campo Reposado, agave nectar and lemon-lime for $5.
▪ Dallas-based Cantina Laredo is promoting its “color flip” margaritas that change colors: the Cabo (with reposado), Casa Magic (with Grand Marnier) and a Flora Rita with blood-orange syrup.
▪ Dallas-based Blue Goose Cantina will serve $3 margaritas, rocks or frozen.
▪ Irving-based Fish City Grill and Half Shells restaurants will serve $5 gold margaritas, $6 prickly pear margaritas, $6.50 spicy silver margaritas and $8.50 “perfect Patron” margaritas. (And check out the menu for Mardi Gras.)
▪ Bedford-based Boomer Jack’s/Bedford Ice House will serve $3 house margaritas frozen or on the rocks.
▪ Dallas-based Snuffer’s will serve $4 house margaritas.
