Updated: Nov 10, 2020
Whether you prefer frozen or on the rocks, a house special or a top-shelf concoction, margaritas are a cool and delicious way to beat the summer heat.
I’m all for craft margaritas conjured up by some of today’s best mixologists. But to me, the true test of margarita magic, is the perfect balance of the sweet, sour, and salt of a traditional lime margarita.
Below are 10 League City eateries to check out in one’s search for the perfect margarita.
Esteban’s – For more than 30 years, this local favorite has been serving up top-notch margaritas like the Hornitos Special and the Sauza Top Shelf. With excellent food options, no matter which margarita you choose, you’re bound to excite your taste buds.
Luna’s – When you talk about a margarita quest in League City, one must consider this a bucket list stop. My personal favorite is the small (12 oz.) frozen margarita. It’s flavor and kick perfectly complement the spice of the restaurant’s Tex-Mex menu.
Abuelo’s – The first hint that margarita bliss may be just around the corner hits you as you enter the front door and see a long, art-niche wall holding an impressive collection of tequilas.
