This bar is amazing. Best mezcal cocktails, guacamole, chicharrones, and service. Hector is a fantastic waiter, so friendly and fun. Definitely go here.

Walked by this bar and loved their music (just loud enough to hear, my style) and vibe. Figured since we love mezcal we'd have a few drinks before dinner which were all excellent. Menu selection for mezcal is slightly limited and more so for cocktails and beer, however you'll find something to enjoy. The idea is really to try some of their unique selections of mezcal. Also, the server seemed to appear out of nowhere when needed and nowhere in sight when not. Awesome little place, no reason to give anything other than 5 stars.

Really fun atmosphere and decor but really did not enjoy the mezcal or coctails. Go here for good times, no good drinks/eats.

Mezcal by itself was great. Cocktails were lacking significant flavor and complexity. We were forced to order food in order to have any drink even though we had just eaten and have other food. We had half our party leave because of that which cut their revenue in half (math seems to make sense here). Wouldn’t go back and in a city with so many incredible options, this isn’t for you unless you’re only going to do mezcal tasting AND want to eat here.

Very nice place for some mezcal with friends. The “fundido de chorizo” is very good!

This is a phenomenal place. We crave their phenomenal selection of creative mezcal cocktails- mezcal from Oaxaca infused with ingredients like fresh fruit, squash, avocado, chiles. Detailed production info on each mezcal is also provided for those interested in the technical aspects of the drinks

Fantastic spot in CDMX. Michelada is on point! It tastes like they have a house mix vs just dumping some canned Clamato in (which is still tasty) but these are beyond average.

Solid mezcal selection.

Outdoor/indoor options for seating with plenty of shade.
