When craving Mexican food, Las Margaritas is the ultimate Vancouver destination. From the outside the restaurant screams authentic, with bright colours and a top-notch patio that somehow make the nachos and margaritas taste even better. Inside, the colourful décor, mix of flavours and spices and tequila-based drinks are sure to be a hit with any member of the family.

Las Margaritas was established in 1980 and was purchased in 1994 by California native Dan Rodriguez and his wife. Dan started in the industry working as a dishwasher, then after already owning several successful Mexican restaurants in Europe, Dan and his wife decided to establish themselves in Vancouver and bought Las Margaritas. “I took over the existing restaurant and put my stamp on it. I changed the exterior, the interior, and basically just kept the name,” says Dan.

Fall in love with summer on Vancouver’s best patios

Summer in Vancouver isn’t complete without a margarita and some guacamole on the patio of this favourite Kitsilano restaurant. Flower pots dot the already bright walls, while palm trees wrapped in fairy lights add a sense of the exotic to an otherwise bustling city corner. Get there early on weekends to find a parasol-shaded view of the street.

10 best date-night restaurants in Kitsilano

For a date that’s as raucous as it is romantic, try Las Margaritas – a much-loved local hotspot with a 60-seat patio that has been voted the best in Vancouver. A cantina style menu takes inspiration from Northern Mexico and Southern California, offering towering nachos, quesedillas, spicy wings, tacos, burritos and stuffed peppers. The tequila tasting flight is a must-have, as is the classic margarita, hand-shaken and served with agave syrup and fresh-squeezed lime juice.
