City House
1222 4th Ave NThis spot is walking distance on a nice day - about 10 minutes - over to 12 South. The margaritas are perfect. We love the rock shrimp taco (spicy), the duck taco and the ahi taco and poke bowl. The churros are not to be missed. on the weekend expect a wait at prime dinner time. This would be a great spot for a late lunch or early dinner without having to withstand the crowd. There is plenty to see on this street for a nice stroll after your margaritas.
