Sangrita Grill + Cantina takes its “tacos and tequila” premise well beyond a quick taco stop. The modern Mexican menu ranges from ceviches and aguachiles to grilled specialties, while the bar features an 80-bottle collection of tequila and mezcal. The restaurant describes that collection as additive-free, with fruit and chocolate pairings.
Guacamole and street corn ribs offer starting points before individually served tacos or comal-fired fajitas. For dessert, there are churros and tres leches; café de olla provides a coffee finish. The drinks list stretches beyond house margaritas to palomas, ranch waters, micheladas and mezcal cocktails, giving the agave emphasis several directions.
Green walls, a large chandelier and a long white bar counter give the dining room a polished look, while outdoor seating offers a patio alternative. Diners repeatedly praise the welcoming atmosphere and attentive service, with cocktails another recurring draw. The moderately priced restaurant accommodates groups as well as smaller dinner plans.
