A lot goes into a good Mexican restaurant — good guacamole, burritos, chorizo, the list goes on. But to fans of the classic mixed drink, nothing is quite as important as a good margarita. Don’t worry — 5 Burro Cafe has it all. While you and your friends dig into a delicious meal, you can enjoy the full-service bar which keeps the margs flowing until 1 a.m.. Each drink is packed with the perfect punch sweetness and potency. Tequila not your thing? For a staff that perfected the margarita, other favorites like strawberry daiquiris, pina coladas, and their popular “shark attack” are no problem. And if you need a next day hangover cure, it’s no problem — the hair of the dog can be found in mini-margs during their weekend brunch.
