"This new Sixth Street dive-style bar and New York City transplant doesn’t pride itself on the fancy stuff, but it is dependable. Open without fail until 2 a.m. daily, Mother’s Ruin is mostly straightforward in its drink offerings, including beer, wine, and shots, but goes a little outside of the box with its rotating list of cocktails, which include mezcal negronis and specials like a frozen paloma made with five-chili molasses. The food gets a little adventurous, too, with French onion soup grilled cheeses, Cholula-honey wings, Thai Brussels sprouts, and a smash burger." - Darcie Duttweiler
