Truth be told, I've never been much of a tequila girl.

Surprising, I know, considering everything else is basically fair game.

There was just one night in college that I like to refer to as "Te-kill-ya" and that should explain why I tend to steer clear. Unfortunate for me, my friend group LOVES to take shots of Patron at the bar, so within the past year tequila has grown on me.

I'm not begging for shots of it at the bar, but at least I don't run to the bathroom after I take one anymore #progress.

And what better way to mask the taste/smell/sight of tequila than in a delicious margarita?!

To celebrate National Margarita Day, I thought I would point you to places in the Quad Cities that offer the best.

    "Really Good Mexican"

    Really Good Mexican food and heathly drinks. Fresh salsa and warm chips with a jumbo margarita's, who can go bad that way. Sometimes to much tequila in the drinks, beware.

    "Great food and service at reasonable price"

    For my taste, they have the best Margaritas in town. Depending upon which day you go there you may find a special which provides more than ample quantities at a bargain price. Just be sure you have a designated driver.

    "Great Food, Huge Portions, Drink Deals."

    The service was great; friendly, tentative and responsive. The food is very good and you get a lot. Everyone took home go-boxes with enough for another meal. Their margaritas were great and cheap if you go before 6pm. The owner even came over and thanked us for visiting. We all had a great time and will return.
