"This place is all about its margaritas, pitcher-perfect versions of the tequila cocktail that captured top honors at Top Taco Fest. The Velvet Cactus offers an ornately decorated patio for eating outdoors, with lots of Mexican-themed snacks and dishes for munching. The family grill platter is heaped with fajitas, shrimp, sausage, and sides and easily feeds four — great for the whole family." - Beth D’Addono
