“My wife and I were here on a Saturday night, and we had a wonderful time. From the moment we arrived, Alina took such good care of us. If you like mezcal and tequila, you will not be disappointed; the cocktails we had were amazing! Great food and atmosphere too. We will definitely be back again soon.”
“I celebrated my boyfriend’s 45th surprise birthday at Maya Mezcal and it was absolutely amazing. The drinks, service, and food exceeded our expectations. Working with the owner, Rodouane, was a delight. He was incredibly accommodating and answered all of my questions. The hospitality shown to me and my 40 guests was unmatched. I highly recommend this establishment and will definitely return for a date night with my partner.”
“I love mezcal, so I was thrilled when we stumbled upon this place. The interior design is gothic and beautiful, which immediately sets the mood for the evening. There is a large selection of cocktails and flights, so it was hard to pick which drink to try tonight. I ended up getting the Mamango (i think) and it was delicious. Smokey and mango 😊 but if you’re not a mezcal person then it will taste like a cigarette (according to my partner). Not to worry, as there are plenty of tequila drinks, and they also have some beer and vodka. I can’t wait to come back and try something new!”
“It was a cold night, and we were warmly welcomed by Alina to settle into the upstairs nook. I went with one of the weirdest cocktails that stood out - Spicy Rabbit. It tasted like mezcal V8, which I totally enjoyed, but my friends found it a bit too healthy. My partner’s Mexican Porn Star was a popular hit! The service was friendly, the bar was cozy, and the cocktail menu was creative. Will return again on the weekends when the live music is playing!”
“Stopped by for drinks after Japan Fes and was really impressed. The cocktails are great—balanced and sophisticated without the syrupy sweetness you find at other spots. While we only sampled a few items, the food was high quality and tasty. This is a must-visit , especially if you’re a fan of tequila and mezcal!”
