The Great Margarita Hunt

Tequila Jack’s Restaurant and Cantina

407 Shoreline Village Dr, Long Beach, CA 90802

House Margarita

The Cadillac

Jalapeño Margarita

This place was recommended by our hotel.  It is a tourist spot and the place is packed on a Friday night, but we found a spot at the bar.  Tequila Jacks is offering a big margarita, 20 ounces. 
First up, the House Margarita is 20 ounces and $9.95, which makes for a fun night.  We are not big fans of sweet and sour mix, especially the stuff from a bottle, but this was better than we expected and we give it a 3.5 out of 5 margarita glass rating.
The Cadillac is $11.95 which is very reasonable for a 20 ounce margarita. Made wih El Jimado, Cointreau Noir, sweet and sour, fresh oranges and limes.  The glass is so large, there are full size orange and lime slices floating in the top.  While a bit too large, we thought this drink was better than expected and we gave it a 4 margarita glass rating.
Another 20 ounce margarita, the Jalapeño Margarita is made with Tanteo Jalapeño Tequila, lime juice, sweet and sour mix and triple sec. This drink is spicier than many spicy margaritas we have tried.  Definitely, the hottest of the night.  We give it a rating of 4 margarita glasses.
Bigger is not always better, but overall we would recommend Tequila Jack’s, especially for a mix crowd looking for a place to eat and enjoy margaritas with a view.

The hunt continues….
