Yesterday was National Margarita Day and while I did not partake in the celebration I took to social media to find the best places to get a margarita in town.

I learned one thing from the poll I took, there are a lot of places in Lafayette that make margaritas and people love them.

# 5: Tampico's

I think we can all agree that this place should be on the list! When I think of having a low-key girl's night this is the first restaurant that comes to mind.

Tampico's is located at 5713 Johnston St.

I don't think it is a surprise to anyone that La Fonda's came out to be number 1. You can pass by the restaurant any Friday or Saturday night and see that this restaurant is clearly loved.

La Fonda's is located at 3809 Johnston St.

There were a lot of places that were listed and just in case you want to try them all out I will now list the honorable mentions.
