This is a classy speakeasy style bar hidden in the Oryx restaurant. The vibe is classic speakeasy,…read morehigh style but comfortable for sure. The cocktail menu is interesting and full of lots of delicious options. My cocktail was made to perfection and our service was on point. We came in late one night so there was plenty of seating, but typically it's reservation only, so be sure and make a Resy if you want to make sure you can get in. Tijuana is full of hidden gems like this and Nortico is a welcome addition. Get off Revolution and check this spot out!

Small, intimate, comfortable speakeasy with extremely friendly staff. Renee was brilliant! She…read moretaught me about all the different spirits that Mexico manufactures (other than the well known spirits of Tequila and Mezcal) and knew how to showcase the unique spirits of Mexico with cocktails that really leverage these spirits. She recommended a milk punch cocktail that incorporated Sotol, which is kind of like tequila but instead of fermenting agave, it ferments Dasylirion and is made only in Chihuahua. Then she recommended a cocktail that leverages a Mexican produced corn liquor in a Negroni but with gin subbed with mezcal. Both of these cocktails are bartenders choice and not on the menu, but the fact that they can execute such innovative cocktails so we'll speaks to the level of dedication bartenders at this bar have. Renee even gave pointers as to where I might be able to buy some of the bottles they use and for a few other bars of similar caliber to visit nearby. Instead of ending my trip at Nortico as previously planned, she helped me find a really cool new bar in Tijuana! Highly recommend.

Lamentablemente, el volumen de la música estaba excesivamente alto. Mi iPhone no dejaba de advertirme que el nivel era perjudicial para mis oídos debido a los decibeles elevados. No podíamos conversar con normalidad. Incluso el mesero tenía que repetir sus preguntas varias veces, ya que ni él mismo lograba escuchar con claridad lo que pedíamos. Cuando intentaba explicarnos el menú, era prácticamente inaudible. En dos ocasiones anteriores la experiencia había sido muy buena. Sin embargo, esta vez, al invitar a unos amigos con la intención de que disfrutaran el lugar, la experiencia no fue agradable. J. Caballero

Door cover is $150 MXN pesos and it's worth it.  The fun starts about 9pm when they trio starts to play and from then on it's just 90 min of jazz high energy jazz music.  One caveat though, it does get a bit loud.   The ambiance is intimate, the drinks are excellent and there is a food menu with hamburgers, Pizza, and salads.  I ordered two Mezcal based drinks (Mingus Rey and Naked and Famous both $190 Mxn each) which were stupendous with a perfect amount of sweet, bitter, and smokey Mezcal. The bartender takes lots of pride in making cocktails and it shows.  If you're a jazz lover or just want a night out on the town that is a bit more laid back than the usual "club" then this place is for you.

A chic bar with both a modern interior and hip exterior seating options, my friends love to order a margarita crafted with love or an ice cold draft beer.

With the exception of the music. To my surprise, they offer a full drink and food menu here (check out the menu pictures on top.) The best part of this is that prices are not bad, and the quality is amazing! They have a lot of oven baked pizzas which were great and came out relatively fast. They had two bartenders who even though they were busy preparing drinks, they were also friendly and attentive I'd recommend this place to anyone trying to get away from the loud noise and to anyone who is trying to get their daily dose of pitbull/ke$ha/justin beiber ( I swear they had the play list on repeat).

Everything is delicious: the crudo, salads, vegetables (especially the charred cabbage), the seafood, chicken, and local beef. Desserts are always exquisite too, and service excellent. Their current sommelier is wonderful, too. You can book on OpenTable, which is convenient. Also good for before or after wine-tasting at Bruma. It's one of the few restaurants open Monday and Tuesday, so are there for firm meetings in Nov. '23 and Nov. '24, and had a big multi-course dinner there w/ the firm a few years ago and just recently for 30+ people, and the food is always top notch.

5 stars for being able to get weed and smoke it right on the spot Haha Was brought here by a friend…read moreso we could smoke some joints before watching a movie at plaza rio. When they told me there's a place we can go and get weed and roll some joints and smoke it there while Having a drink, I Kind of thought hard to believe but it's actually true haha It is located way in the back at plaza zapato on the second floor. You will take stairs to get up to the place. Go in the back room to get your herbs for 50 pesos ($3) for which looked like a gram. My friend said that's expensive for Mexico lol It's not medical grade, but decent enough. They even provided papers. We rolled the joints at our table and then just sparked it up. No one even paid attention. Great place. You'll never know that this place is even there. Not sure how much they pay the cops to not bother them cause there were cops we walked by right before going up and they ignore it. Definitely worth checking the place out.
