"When you need a little social lubricant to get the conversation going, Tia Maria’s has the margarita (or six) for you. This Tex-Mex spot in Spring Branch serves nuclear-grade margs, truly nostalgic plates of cheese enchiladas, and bowls of thick, gooey queso. For a classic budget-conscious scenario, hit up Tia’s for Happy Hour, which lasts until the dinner hour of 8pm on weekdays. Maybe show your sort of friend you care and suggest splitting a steaming plate of fajitas, you know, ‘cause regular friends do that. Breaking bread, or better yet tearing tortillas, together never felt so good, but that’s mostly the margaritas. " - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
