"Houston diners who like Dallas-import Haywire — meet its Mexican sister. Mexican Sugar opened in Regent Square in December, offering its extensive library of agave spirits, which includes more than 150 types of tequila and mezcal. The restaurant features six signature margaritas, including its Machete, made with serrano-infused Pueblo Viejo Blanco, watermelon, cucumber, lime, and mint; a hibiscus margarita; and the Mad Matador, a mezcal-margarita made with Nixta Elote liqueur and pineapple. Make it a flight for $22, and pair it with its extra cheesy lobster fundito. Visit during its weekday happy hour, which stretches from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m." - Marcy de Luna
