The cocktail menu is interesting and full of lots of delicious options. My cocktail was made to perfection and our service was on point.

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.

On this visit I had a Don Julio blanco margarita and it was probably one of the best margaritas I've ever had! It was simple and not too sweet. Service is prompt and efficient and friendly.

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.

I ordered the Pepino Misionero which is a cucumber drink. I loooooooooveeee my cucumber drinks! This one felt like a mojito in that there were muddled ingredients in it. I loved the drink but I typically don't order mojitos because I find them difficult to drink and I hate getting the leaves in my mouth. I had the same difficulty with the Pepino Misionero. The ambiance is modern with both indoor and outdoor seating. There is a gorgeous fire pit right in the middle of the patio which gives off nice heat without making your hair smell like firewood. It's the perfect place to grab a few drinks before heading down for your dinner reservation at Mision 19 but it's not a place I would seek out just to drink at for the night. The prices are very similar to the prices you would pay for cocktails in the states. Not overly expensive, just more expensive than other drink prices in Mexico. It was a bit dead when we arrived since it was fairly early in the night so I'd be curious to feel the vibe of the place when it's more packed.

They've got the best selection in town by far and, if you don't already know your favorite type of mezcal, you're sure to find it here.
