“ Stopped by this spot right when it opened for cocktails and a snack. Great little spot with excellent service. We got a Zombi (uber strong! use caution) and a banana colada (nice and refreshing). Got the chicharrones which come with tortillas so it's pretty much an entree perfect for two and nice and salty to go with the drinks. Check it out! ”
“ We came across this speakeasy, it was a little hidden and small but we loved the vibes and atmosphere. They had a dj and he was super cool. I asked to play a song and he delivered. The bartender was super chill and knowledgeable. We had two drinks and two shots each. By the end of the night I was tipsy. We did not buy food, it was expensive for small portions. The drinks were perfect and amazing. Would definitely go back. ”
“ This place feels like a trendy tavern and I adore it. Their cocktails are delicious and very well priced for speciality drinks. Their chorizo/potato tacos are the best I’ve ever eaten. The ambiance is great on a weekday, the staff is very helpful, and they’re very patient if Spanish isn’t your first language. Definitely a must go to in Guadalajara/Colonia Americana! ”
“ Crafty bar with good food near centro Guadalajara. All the drinks and food I had were good. Recommend this bar restaurant ”
“ Heard a lot about this place from others and it was a really cool inside. Tiny so they can have a really long wait but traveling solo it’s often not very difficult to a get a single spot at a bar. The margarita I had was very good and the tacos were okay. I love cochinita pibil so the two of those I had were excellent but the chorizo taco was just okay. Service was as good as it can be without it being amazing. The decor and aesthetic was my favorite part. Lots of cool and interesting things all over the walls. ”
