Our tequila bar doesn’t stop short of striving to offer the best in fine tequilas, hand squeezed, hand muddled margaritas, signature cocktails, local wines, craft and imported beers.

Every margarita at FISHGAUCHO is hand crafted with fresh-squeezed lime, organic agave nectar, and Blue Agave Tequila. We feel, this combination is the best way to enjoy the perfect margarita.

Not all tacos are created equal. When Fish Gaucho does tacos, we like to raise the bar.

Our featured Seared Scallop Tacos take things in a decidedly more decadent direction, pairing perfectly seared scallops with piña-pepper salsa, cilantro crema, and pickled onions on warm corn tortillas.

Fresh, vibrant, and just a little indulgent, they're the kind of taco that deserves your full attention.

Available for a limited time—because some things are too special to stay on the menu forever.
