How we score

The editorial take

El Mazatlan Bar and Grill #8 runs a beverage program built for volume and variety, with a cocktail list that spans classics like the Cuba Libre and Bloody Mary to tropical pours such as the Bahama Mama and Electric Lemonade. A dedicated specialties menu covers margaritas, daiquiris, piña colada, and blended drinks like the Margarona and Sangarita. Beer drinkers get a deep roster of Mexican and domestic labels, several in mug, jumbo, or pitcher formats. Wine is a straightforward set of reds, whites, and sangria. The result is a broadly capable bar list that favors familiar, easy-drinking options over niche depth.

What should I order?
Start with the Mexican Mojito from the cocktail list, or try the Sangarita, a blend of margarita and sangria. Beer drinkers can choose from Dos Equis Dark, Modelo Especial, or Pacifico, all available in 16 oz. Mug, jumbo, or pitcher formats.
Who will enjoy this place?

What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The beverage menu is organized into Beer, Cocktails, Specialties, and Wine, with a specialties section that includes margaritas, daiquiris, piña colada, and combination drinks like the Margarona and Sangarita. Multiple serving sizes across cocktails and beer set it apart from a standard bar list.
