Mesa Rosa

Cadillac Margarita: Herradura Añejo Tequila, Gran Gala, splash of orange juice, and sweet n sour.  Sweet n Spiderman too stale, Herradura tequila is not that great, +1, on the amount of tequila though., orange juice is not necessary.  5/10, wpuld have been a 4 but extra tequila helped.

Mesa Rosa

House Mexican Martini: El Jimador Blanco, 100% Agave Tequila, Gran Gala, and apparently the rest is a secret. Not bad, rivals my own Mexican Martinis. Jimador tequila is better than I thought, Just a bit too much orange liqueur though. Could have been a 9. 8/10

Chili's

Platinum Presidente Margarita $9.50,  Hand Shaken, Tres Generaciones Ańejo Tequila, Cointreau Orange Liqueur,  Presidente Brandy and sweet & sour. Good ingredients, too much orange liqueur,  and definitely not enough Tres Generaciones. Good enough for a 7/10

SaltGrass Steakhouse

Y.O. Rita Pura Vida Silver Tequila, DeKuyper Cactus Juice Liqueur,  Tres Agave Nectar,  Fresh Lime Juice and chili salted rim. First sip did not like. Worked my way around the chili salt, and the rest was pretty good. Sweet and Sour was pretty good. Good Tequila, agave nectar gives it a unique sweetness, overall 7/10. (No chili salt would make this an 8.

Gringos (LaPorte)

Cadillac Rita. House Margarita, with Sauza Gold and DeKuyper orange liqueur. Sweetness is good with the sweet and sour mix. Sauza Gold is above average. Overall 7/10.

Gringo's (LaPorte)

It is the House Margarita, with Tres Generaciones Tequila mixed in. It's served in a pretty small glass. The foundation is OK. The basic House mix itself is a 5. It needs more orange liqueur for some sweetness.  The 3G's can only bring it up to a 6 though, no more. Average +1.

Carrabba's

Carrabba's Italian Margarita. Sweet and sour mix is too sour, and it doesnt seem to have enough amaretto. Tequila is average at best. Overall 6/10.
