A sign next to the bar read (in Spanish):

"Bar Andaluz"

En este lugar del Riviera inventó la popular bebida "Margarita", el Bar tender Sr. David Negrete, a petición de la Sra. Margarita King Plant, dueña del entonces hotel en Agosto 21 de 1948.

Which roughly translates into:

The popular "Margarita" drink was invented by bartender Mr. David Negrete on August 21, 1948, here in the Riviera. The drink was created at the request of the Margarita King Plant which owned the hotel at that time.
