This colorful eatery has served up Mexicantown deliciousness to Motor City residents since 1967, and its margaritas are just as fantastic as its fare. Gaze at pretty Aztec murals as you sip on a happy hour margarita—that’s right, from 3 p.m. until 7 p.m. daily, these beloved drinks can be yours for just $3 each. Is your mouth watering yet?

This unassuming eatery might not catch your eye at first, but don’t let that stop you from heading inside. One sip of a margarita from Los Altos will prove why the restaurant deserves a spot on our Margarita Mile list, and you might just want to stay for a second round. The mango margarita is a favorite, but there’s an option here to satisfy your every craving.

This spot has it all: friendly service, incredible cuisine, a laid-back atmosphere, convenient hours, and some of the best margaritas in town. Diners report enjoying strong drinks with fantastic flavors, all served by attentive employees in a no-frills environment that’s easy to love. On a summer day, what’s better than enjoying an ice-cold strawberry banana margarita?

Taqueria El Rey is known for its incredible grilled chicken, but its margaritas also deserve plenty of clout. Don’t expect fancy decor or extra frills when you dine here, but this simplicity is part of the restaurant’s charm. Sip on a tasty beverage with a wonderfully salted rim as you chat with friends and indulge in an order of tasty chicken. Just don’t forget your wallet, as Taqueria El Rey is cash-only.

You’re in for plenty of fun when you stop at La Terraza, which serves marvelous food in a festive environment, complete with frequent live entertainment and upbeat service. While the eatery is known for seafood and Mexican dishes, its margaritas have also garnered attention for their deliciousness and sheer size. Once you settle in at La Terraza, you might not want to leave for the rest of the night.
