There is one thing that should be stated upfront - there is such a thing as Margarita Day. It’s in mid to late February and it is in fact a national day. Word on the street has it that if you stop by Los Altos on that day, a 20-ounce margarita would be closer to $5 and a pitcher would be more like $12.
