Pablo McGinty's

We recently tried out Pablo McGinty's, located in the Ward Center (at the old Compadre's location).
They have redone some of the interior - removing a inner wall to increase the bar size. It's a nice upgrade to the site.

The site remains a good choice for families and friendly gatherings. It even seems that the outside bar is pet-friendly.

They have also revived Taco Tuesday, which we have not yet sampled. We did try their tacos and soup. The food was good. The prices were comparable to what they were when it was Compadres. There is apparently a very good happy hour from 4-7 pm.
They have a fun "hot sauce wall," which a wonderful assortment of different hot sauces. I have decided that every restaurant should have a hot sauce wall. They have a great selection. It allows for a rather entertaining opportunity to try out different hot sauces with your dish(es).

The best part of our meal was the Fresh Strawberry Margarita. It was hands down the best margarita I have had - and I've had a few in my day. The fresh crushed strawberries mixed into the drink, which is served on the rocks, truly makes a difference in the taste of the drink. It's simply delicious - and makes Pablo McGinty's a place worth returning to!
