Best Maragrita in Lexington
Everyone loves a good margarita; I know I do. But where is the best place to get one? The answer is a trick one. The best margarita is one served with buddies.
The best margarita is the 2 for 1 margarita.... Ha... I'm so clever.
however there are some really fantastic places in Lexington to get a margarita and below I will expound on them...
LOS ALAZANES, Lexington KY (Harrodsburg RD, Next to The Wafflehouse at Red Mile)
This place has got the best margaritas in Lexington. They are sooo good. Fresh, good tequila, and very little sweet and sour. You could drink a bucket of these and not suffer the dreaded heart burn associated with heavy consumption of this delectable mexican libation. Out of all of the places I've gotten margaritas this one is my first pick for awesomeness... The food is also killer and the atmosphere is pretty top notch. If you've never been, check it out. They also have 2 fer 1 margs on Thursday, and probably other nights if it is slow and you tip your server. Don't tell them I told you that. The typical marg is $4.25 and worth every damn penny.
RINCON, Lexington KY (Next to Charlie Browns on Euclid)
Every college kid over 21 has experienced the awesome that is RINCON! The place looks like a pinata filled with awesome exploded. The food is great, but the real reason everyone goes is the super liquored frozen margaritas. I'm pretty sure their deal is every Tues and Thurs, and they may even throw a Sunday in too...Givem a call to find out. The great part of their margaritas is the selection. You can get on the rocks or frozen, and if you opt for frozen you can pick from 10 flavors ranging from strawberry to orange, or if you are really drunk, red to orange.
Mi Pacenia Hacienda (off Lansdown)
This place used to be owned and run by the same peeps that run Rincon. When I first moved to lex this was the place for margaritas. The location is excellent and probably the biggest of all the restaurants listed. They serve up the same awesome margaritas that Rincon on Euclid do. One excellent addition to this location over Rincon is the amazing patio. This place is hopping in good weather and on the weekends they usually have some mexican band on hand to annoy the patrons. It is great if you're drinkin and rowdy, but not so great if you aren't impressed by Hispanic men in super tight sequenced jump suits singing spanish songs drunk patrons sing along too even if they don't know spanish or the song. That was a long sentence, but makes sense if you've ever been.
When I want a Margarita, I go one of these places.... where do you go?
