Funky little raspa stand with an American influence that sets it apart from the rest. From what I’ve read, the original Margo’s is in Weslaco and has been in business 30 years. This is their second location and it opened in February 2014. Unlike other raspa stands that have a plethora of complicated concoctions, Margo’s is very simple and streamlined. You pick your size, your flavor, any fruit and then add-ons like Lucas, lime, chamoy, etc. I often have to substitute and add things at the other places, so this process makes it a lot easier. The ice is a lot like Popeye’s, very fine and smooth.(If you like a crunchier ice, try Young’s on South Bicentennial). The flavors are very sweet, like anywhere else, but do not taste chemical-y or artificial at all. It is drive-thru only, but they have parking spaces and two picnic tables if you want to eat outside. Great dessert after some Delias’s tamales right across the street – try them out!
