The ‘margarita de pina’ is another crowd favorite that is slightly fruity with a spicy kick from the habanero bitters.
The barbacoa tacos are a popular choice if you are going for dinner since they braise their brisket in Mezcal Guajillo for additional flavor. The barbacoa tacos are also served on fresh, homemade corn tortillas that taste amazing. Don’t forget about dessert!
