Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The beverage program leans hard into margaritas, with a dozen or so variations including the Presidente Margarita®, Don Julio® Marg, and Henny Marg. A daily all-day happy hour keeps the Tequila Classic Marg at $7 and the Margarita of the Month at $6, while 16 oz beers run $3–$4. House-made lemonades and flavored iced teas cover the nonalcoholic side. Wine and straight spirits are afterthoughts, but the margarita and beer value is clear.
- What should I order?
- Start with a margarita built on a named spirit—the Don Julio® Marg or Casamigos® Marg—or the Presidente Margarita® if you want the house signature. For something lighter, the Tito's Watermelon Spritz is on the To-Go Alcohol menu. During happy hour, the Tequila Classic Marg is $7.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone looking for a broad, affordable margarita list and a daily all-day happy hour with $3–$4 beers. The flavored lemonades and iced teas give non-drinkers real options beyond soda.
- When should I go?
- Happy hour runs every day, all day, which makes any afternoon or evening work for the $6 Margarita of the Month and $7 Tequila Classic Marg. The 3 For Me® menu pairs Frozen or Rocks House Margaritas with a meal.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Happy hour pricing is the draw: 16 oz beers at $3–$4, 22 oz at $4–$5, house wine at $5, Margarita of the Month at $6, and Tequila Classic Marg at $7. Outside happy hour, margarita prices vary by spirit and size.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The margarita list is unusually deep for a chain grill: Presidente Margarita®, Don Julio® Marg, Patron® Marg, Henny Marg, Casamigos® Marg, Skinny Marg, Cherry Limeade Marg, and Tito's Watermelon Spritz all appear on the To-Go Alcohol menu. House-made flavored lemonades and iced teas round out the nonalcoholic side.
