About

Tia Margarita, a family owned restaurant, established in 1963, serves classic northern Mexican fare in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Most recipes have remained constant throughout Tia Margarita’s history, such as the well known carne asada, while other dishes have evolved to appeal to new customers’ tastes. Known for outstanding fresh lime margaritas, patrons can enjoy them from the blender or on the rocks. The original horseshoe bar provides a full range of cocktails and a great bar scene. Tia Margarita welcomes new customers as most become regulars, returning again and again for everything from delicious homemade salsa and rellenos, to tamales and dynamite margaritas. Many of the staff has been there over 20 years.
