Located on Blazing Star Drive, Los Dos Primos Mexican Restaurant offers an authentic taste of Mexico along with premium cocktails such as the Margarito, a classic lime margarita on the rocks with extras not typically found in a routine margarita, such as a bottle of Mexican soda overturned into the glass.
