Casa Rita's - Seriously folks, we had a hard time deciding where to put Casa Rita’s.  No doubt Casa Rita’s offers some great Tex Mex food as well as wonderful patio ambiance (which is big competition here in Frisco Tx), but we had to make a decision.  So we added a separate category: Margarita.  Because really, here in Frisco Tx, the margarita is as integral to the dining experience as the food itself.
