National Margarita Day with Te Amo Restaurant Group
Sunday, February 22, 2026, 1200 - 2100
New Haven's favorite powerhouse duo, Chef Sonia Salazar and Sarah Cornelius - the dynamic owners behind Barracuda Bistro and Bar, 80 Proof American Kitchen, and Te Amo Tequila Bar and Tacos - are turning up the lime and salt for National Margarita Day on Sunday, February 22 with $5 margaritas all day long. Yes, really.
These two don't just open restaurants - they create party destinations. From bold flavors to DJ-fueled vibes, their trio of spots keeps downtown New Haven buzzing year-round.
At Barracuda Bistro and Bar - named one of the top Latin American restaurants in Connecticut by Connecticut Magazine - Chef Sonia's Colombian roots shine through house-made arepas, crafted mojitos, Latin beats, and that unmistakable celebratory energy. After celebrating its 10th anniversary and relocating to the back room of sister spot 80 Proof on Crown Street, Barracuda continues to bring the heat.
80 Proof American Kitchen delivers elevated comfort food with personality - classic American favorites layered with Chef Sonia's cultural influences, served alongside DJ music and a high-energy social scene.
And over at Te Amo Tequila Bar and Tacos, it's all about bold tacos (traditional and not-so-traditional), signature margaritas, and a high-octane atmosphere that feels like the weekend - even on a Sunday.
So grab your friends, claim your salt rim, and make your way to any location in this restaurant group. National Margarita Day only comes once a year - but this crew knows how to make it unforgettable.
