TQLA Southwestern Kitchen & Agave Bar: Given its name, this sleek Mesa bistro has the tequila selection you’d expect: 85-plus, including four on tap. The most expensive? Grand Patrón Burdeos at $85 a shot.
La Ristra New Mexican Kitchen: This Gilbert eatery also stocks nearly 100 tequilas to complement its spicy Hatch chile-based cuisine. Join its Agave Club to get 10% off all. Grand Patrón Burdeos is $70 a shot.
Juan Jaime’s Tacos & Tequila: This casual hangout, with locations in Chandler and Scottsdale, offers about 80 tequilas to wash down its street-style tacos. The biggest splurge is a shot of Don Julio Real for $50.
El Palacio Mexican Restaurant & Cantina: Looking for a deal? This Chandler restaurant, which has 45 tequilas, sells Gran Patrón Burdeos for $45 a shot – almost half of what you’d pay at many bars.
Baja Joe’s Mexican Cantina: Looking for an even better deal? This Mesa restaurant has delicious Mexican food, 35 tequilas, and shots of Don Julio 1942 for just $25. (You’d pay up to $100 at some Scottsdale bars.)
