Lot's of places don't have one. Seattle probably will never get one but I think Texas is deserving of at least one.
Problem is which city?

Welcome to BN. What part of the great State of Texas are you from?

Sure, and leave out Austin, Dallas - Ft. Worth, Houston, Galveston, etc?

Austin doesn't need any more cool places to hang out. They have their own.

Dallas is way too uptight for a M'ville. And they have no tourist section.

Houston might be cool -- out by NASA or something.

Still...Corpus...in the shadow of Selena.....

If he was to target Texas, it most likely would be South Padre, I'd think.

Then there's the Riverwalk in San Antonio. Might work there. Or maybe out by Seaworld where Rudy's is....

I live in San Marcos between Austin and San Antonio....the closest one is New Orleans and that is around an 8 hour drive....I do visit the one in Cozumel when I am there but would like one here somewhere....I guess the obvious place would the So Padre Island.....

thanks for the warm welcome [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

Kemah or Seabrook would be an off-the-hook location for a Margaritaville. Right on the bay, not far from the Gulf, tons of tourists, and the theme is perfect for the area.

Seriously... all you non-Texans... if you've never been to Kemah you seriously have to come. It's like Parrothead city, round the clock. Cool bars, with non-stop Parrothead entertainment. It's a rare week that you won't see Kelly McGuire, Troy Allan, Hannah's Reef or some other cool trop rockers doing their thing there. It would make so much sense to put a Margaritaville restaurant there. And clearlakeparrot, you're right. Right next door to Noah's Ark would be a fine place.

While I wouldn't mind seeing a Margaritaville in Texas, I wouldn't want it to be near Noah's Ark. I LOVE that little place... perfect location, perfect surroundings and atmosphere... no need for a M'ville there. Kemah Boardwalk would be a better spot for it, in my opinion. 8)

Food is damn good. Friday nights are super. You never know who will be there. I love Sunday mornings. The bloody marys are flowing and you have to wait for a seat but its worth it. Be sure to get an oyster shooter ;)

I like Kemah or even Port A!
I do not like South Padre, even though I will be going there in June......from where we live we can almost drive to Florida faster than SP.
I do not think Austin would be so bad but they do already have a lot of great places downtown and out on Lake Travis.

Texas needs a Margaritaville!!!!

Welcome Parrotheaddiver, where do you dive most?.......we are actaully going to dive the Clipper in June while in SP
