Tommy Bahama brings on new summer items! Tacos, Margaritas!


 Summer is the time to lighten up: Tommy Bahama Restaurant & Bar celebrates the season by turning up the heat with a new menu featuring tasty tacos, icy margaritas and refreshing summer cocktails. Light and full of flavor, their take on this classic street fare features layers of tastes, all made from scratch with the culinary craftsmanship of Tommy Bahama. Slow roasted, house-marinated meats, luscious seafood and scratch salsas made of the finest ingredients the season offers. Casual and cool, the new taco menu will be served all day at Tommy Bahama Restaurant & Bar Town Square Las Vegas. Just as the days of summer pass too quickly, the taco and drink menu is available for a limited time only through September. 

All tacos can be ordered as a meal or an appetizer depending on how hungry you are and with options like the Crab & Mango taco featuring lump blue crab nestled in a crispy corn tortilla with watercress, mango salsa and chipotle aioli don’t be surprised if you are suddenly addicted.  If you are a traditionalist, the Street Carnitas, won’t disappoint with a light and tangy combination of slow-roasted Kalua pork, cilantro, pickled onion, salsa verde and lime sour cream on a soft multigrain tortilla. If you prefer a little Caribbean heat, opt for the Jamaican Jerk featuring hand shredded, spiced chicken,  lime slaw, avocado, mango salsa and chipotle aioli. The Langosta features succulent lobster sautéed in tomato relish, topped with bibb lettuce, queso fresco in crispy blue corn tortillas.  Don’t fret beef lovers; Spicy Angus chimichurri takes center stage in the Gaucho, with pickled onion, green apple slaw and fire-roasted salsa on a multigrain tortilla. The classic fish taco gets a serious upgrade in the Hawaiian: grilled, lightly seasoned Mahi-Mahi, is dressed with crunchy shredded cabbage, roasted jalapeño aioli and fresh pineapple salsa. Rounding out the line-up, the Sonoran takes grapefruit marinated mojo pork and serves it up with pickled onion, cactus petal relish and lime sour cream.  And if you are still hungry, don’t miss Tommy Bahama’s Spiked Guacamole, made to order with fire-roasted salsa and freshly made chips it’s the perfect starter or side for this selection of savory tacos.

When the temperature rises and the days get long, the best accompaniment to a tasty taco is something icy cold and Tommy Bahama Restaurant & Bar introduces four new seasonal margaritas along with three fresh market cocktails designed to keep things light and refreshing. The Sedona Skinny Margarita begins with Tres Generaciones Anejo served with orange liqueur, grapefruit soda and agave nectar. A bite of citrus is the kicker in the Pink Grapefruit Margarita, with hand-pressed grapefruit, orange liqueur with Cazadores Reposado tequila. A winning combination of sweet and spicy, the Chile-Lime Margarita adds hand-pressed jalapeño and lime, cayenne pepper and orange liqueur to smooth Sauza Conmemorativo. The Prickly Pear Margarita blends Sauza, Cointreau, Scratch Sour and prickly pear for a slightly sweet but fabulously tart margarita. Cocktails also feature the freshest market ingredients: The Big Kicker is as advertised, with Grey Goose, St-Germaine Elderflower, hand-pressed jalapeño and Scratch Sour, blended for a taste that packs a wallop. Sweet and smooth, Easy Does It mixes Ketel One, watermelon, honey, orange juice and grapefruit soda to make a perfectly thirst-quenching drink. Ripe and fruity, the One-Two Punch pairs Cruzan Silver, Cruzan Raspberry, passion fruit, and pomegranate and mango juice for a tasty treat.
