It looks like today is the day. Margarita Monday is back.

Bull Street Taco, one of Savannah’s most popular casual eateries, is re-opening today (Monday) after a two week shut down to expand into the space next door.

Owner John Massey tells us the project has been in the works for about a year, but everyone is happy because it now adds roughly 1,000 square feet to their footprint at 1608 Bull Street.

“We’ve now got two restrooms as opposed to one. I know everyone was excited to hear about that.” John says.

The kitchen will also be much larger now, which won’t necessarily translate to a larger menu, just more space for their staff to do what they have been doing for the last six years.

“We didn’t have any storage space. We had this little attic in the back of the kitchen that was just a disaster. We didn’t have anything. So we slowly built out a shed, we slowly built out a liquor closet for everything, and then the next step was obviously taking over the barbershop (next door).” he added.

John says they will also now be able to expand their offerings at a larger bar.

“We had a vodka, we had a rum, it was mainly tequilas and 90% of what we do is margaritas, and I assume that probably 85% now of what we’re gonna do is still shaking margaritas, because our margaritas are awesome. But if you want a gin and tonic, we’ve got it, we’ve got a couple of great Mexican gins, we’ve got some really cool artisan rum. We’ve got a killer corn liquor, a mixed malt liquor that we tried yesterday, it’s fantastic. It’s just a cool variety. It’s still kind of small, you’re not gonna find your run of the mill vodka, gin, rum stuff at our bar, but we’ve got a few things.”
