Cadillac Margarita is a classic yum fest. We enjoyed guacamole, tacos and suiza enchiladas. The foods are a la cart. Our server Danica was patient with the elders in my family and friendly. She made sure we received all of our food and drinks. She is a sharp server. I hope to dine with her again.

Great experience! So easy to make a reservation for a large group. When more people showed up than we expected, the servers were really accommodating and moved more tables over for us. They even gave us separate checks. Everyone was so friendly, nice and helpful. The food and drinks were delicious. Our group will definitely be heading back!

Delicious food and attentive service. I had the filet mignon taco and it was delicious. The sauce is spicy so if you don’t do spicy order without it!
