Ah, kids’ party palaces. If you’re a 90s kid like me, odds are that you attended more than a few birthday parties at such places. There may not be as many of them as there used to be, but some chains are still going strong – like Happy Joe’s, the pizzeria and arcade chain best known for being the originators of the taco pizza. The chain still has many locations around Iowa, but one location in Cedar Rapids is serving up something very different these days – and this party’s only for the grown-ups! This former Happy Joe’s is now Mezcal Tequila Cocina, an innovative Mexican restaurant better known for being the best tequila bar in Iowa. There are over 40 varieties of the powerful spirit on offer here, which means a nearly endless array of cocktails to try. It might just be the best Mexican experience in Cedar Rapids – and if you really miss that taco pizza, the food here will quickly win you over!
