Margaritas and Sunshine


My friend and I went to La Rosa Tequileria & Grille on Friday for their “Happy Hour” drinks and food specials. We were greeted with a warm smile from the hostess and were told to go into the bar area for Happy Hour. We chose to sit outside on their patio and enjoy the great weather the night brought with it.
The waitress we had, Emily, also greeted us with a smile and explained what the Happy Hour was all about since we let her know we had never been there before. This bit of happiness goes on from 4-6pm.

We decided to order margaritas ($4.00) for starters, which we decided was a great a choice. Mmm, mmm, good! They were very tasty, and of course they went well with our chips and salsa .Next we looked at the Happy Hour menu, there are seven choices of little appetizers to choose from, and we were on a mission to try them all.

First, we started with the chicken taquitos, two cut in half presented on a bed of lettuce with sour cream and pico de gallo on the side ($2.50). Steak quesadilla, four little triangles stuffed with goodness, also sour cream and picco de gallo on the side ($3.00), and a side of guacamole ($3.00). Next, we tried the tacos ($1.50) so we got three to sample, al pastor, carnitas, my favorite, and fish, which was a little pricier ($3.00).

All in all, the food was flavorful, the atmosphere welcoming, and the margaritas refreshing. We didn’t get through all the menu has to offer, but that just gives us another reason to come back. In parting, just remember to order your margarita before the stroke of six.

La Rosa is located at:
