Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The drinks program leans hard on agave. Margaritas run from a $15 Top Shelf built on El Jimador with a Grand Marnier float to a $38.99 Clase Azul pour, and a $30 flight lets you compare four flavored versions side by side. Beyond margaritas there are palomas, mezcal drinks, a Cantarito billed as the #1 seller, and a Batanga with Mexican Coke. Beer covers ten bottles and five drafts; wine stays small and by the varietal.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Cantarito, the menu's stated #1 seller, built on Centenario añejo with fresh lime and orange juice. For a comparison pour, the $30 Margarita Flight lets you choose four flavored margaritas. The Pomegranate Paloma uses additive-free LALO blanco with grapefruit soda.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone ordering around tequila and mezcal rather than wine. Groups that want to split a margarita flight, and beer drinkers who want both a cold Modelo and a Lagunitas IPA on the same list.
- When should I go?
- The breakfast menu lists a Mimosa Margarita at $9.00 and a Mimosa at $7.00, so morning visits have their own drink pricing.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails run $13.00 to $38.99, with most margaritas and palomas in the $14 to $17 range and the Margarita Flight at $30.00. Draft beer is $8.00, bottles $7.00, the Michelada $10.00. Wine by the glass is $10.00 to $12.00, Sangria $14.00, Mimosas $9.00.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- A margarita list deep enough to include Mimosa, Spicy Pineapple, Orange, and Flavor versions alongside a build-your-own four-pour flight, backed by named agave spirits including Clase Azul, LALO, Centenario, 7 Leguas, and Espadin mezcal.
