Where to Eat and Drink in and Around Lakeview

"This place is all about its margaritas, pitcher-perfect versions of the tequila cocktail that captured top honors at the last 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 plater is heaped with fajitas, shrimp, sausage, and sides and easily feeds four — great for the whole family." - Beth D'Addono
