The editorial take
Cadillac Jack's runs a beverage program that leans on volume and clarity. The drink menu covers beer, cider, seltzer, cocktails, margaritas, bourbon, whiskey, tequila, and mezcal. Eight signature cocktails are listed with ingredients and prices, from a $5 Cherry Delight to an $8 Frisky Frappe. Margaritas come in three tiers, rocks or frozen. The spirits list carries 20 bourbon and whiskey expressions plus a full tequila and mezcal range. It is a straightforward, well-priced lineup.
- What should I order?
- Start with the El Bandito Margarita ($8), made with El Bandito Reposado, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and margarita mix.
