Mezcaleria NECIOS

This Condesa mezcalería sources bottles from small-batch producers across Oaxaca and serves them in a multi-level space with a speakeasy feel. The cocktail menu is built around mezcal — flights and samplers let you taste across regions and production styles — and the food is rooted in Oaxacan cooking: tlayudas, tostadas de atún, and grilled elote ribs are recurring orders.

Live music on weekends adds to the laid-back atmosphere. The space is quieter than most bars in the neighborhood, making it easy to actually talk over a drink. Service is attentive without hovering.
