"Not only is Johnny Curiel’s smash hit in LoHi open for regular dinner service on Christmas Eve — bring on the frijoles puercos with sourdough tortillas, the smoked tuna tostadas with smashed avocado and chicatana mayonnaise, the enmoladas de pollo, and other marvelous modern Mexican plates — but so is his brand-new next-door lounge, Mezcaleria Alma, where agave cocktails like the bubbly Beet Spritz are slung alongside snacks such as burrata with huitlacoche succotash, green tomatoes, and candied pepitas." - Ruth Tobias, Eater Staff
