The establishment has many artistic features which a skilled social media fan will put to good effect to enhance postings on Cinco de Mayo or any other occasion.

Los cocteles (The Cocktails)
Complementing the culinary offerings is an expertly crafted beverage program overseen by Fernando Louis (Casa Mezcal), featuring an array of handcrafted cocktails, artisanal spirits, and curated wine selections. Guests can indulge in classic margaritas with a twist, mezcal-infused creations, and an extensive tequila selection that celebrates Mexico's rich spirit heritage.
