Soda Margarita — Restaurant in Parrita

This soda is convenient to the beach. It's really "rustic" (i.e. could use a proper cleaning and the cat wouldn't leave us after jumping up on the bench), although the food was good. The fruit smoothy was a bit watery for my liking. Prices are generally on par with other sodas.
