Drift Kitchen + Mezcal Bar

Delicious fish tacos and steak burrito and super friendly staff, especially Israel. The hot sauce was fire, wish I can buy a bottle to take home. Very nice hotel as well.

Hotel DRIFT is elegant, great food and ambiance. Beautiful rooms, bar, and pool to relax and soak of the sun. Hotel has modern beach vibe and great design right in center of downtown Arts district!. Excellent service with Manager Alex 🇲🇽🌵🌞💪🏽🏖️🎨🖼️🌮

We had a great lunch here! The service was also terrific! Mau gave great advice on mezcal recommendations! Shrimp tacos were spicy but delicious! Chips and guacamole are a must!

Ran across this cute cafe on our walk, it is a bit off the main path, but worth a detour. Based on the high review average, we stopped in for breakfast. SUPER DELICIOUS!!! If you like a little spice; the sauce that comes with the burrito is amazing!

Went here based on the positive reviews… it’s your basic Mexican fare well executed at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere is casual and airy… chill is the right term. Solid mixed drinks and excellent service. You’ll have a nice meal, well served, and it won’t break the bank. Enjoy

This place a hidden gem & oasis in the middle of downtown! The atmosphere is a vibe and this small restaurant & bar is right outside the boutique hotel. We came with our kids on a Monday evening and it was quiet with not many folks around. The food was great and felt like a modern twist on local classics. Tacos use handmade tortillas that come with great hot sauces. The drinks were on another level, the Diabla and Oaxaca New Fashioned were devine. The service was also fantastic, Alex was awesome to talk to with great suggestions on things to do around town. Can’t wait to come back!

Loved having all my meals at the restaurant of the hotel. The food is simple delicious, I tried almost everything on the menu as I stay for 2 weeks, and every dish and drink had a special flavor. Also, the staff has the most positive vibe I've experienced in a place, its contagious. Very grateful for all your attentions guys, and the great ambience at any time of the day!

We stayed at the hotel as well and spent our time trying breakfasts, apps, dinners, and cocktails throughout the week. I feel like, if this isn’t a hidden gem, it is a very special and excellent place to get absolutely delicious, authentic food in a town that has that on every block. The breakfast burrito was the best my partner and I have ever had. The tacos are made with fresh tortillas that the staff make every day. You can watch them pressing and cooking them while you are sipping on coffee in the morning. The fish and the shrimp were cooked perfectly for the tacos. The coffee was perfect and we had a fondness for the moka which seamlessly blended the flavors of chocolate and coffee without tasting overly sweet or syrupy. Chefs kiss! And if you like mezcal, this is your place in San Jose. The atmosphere is mellow, and beautiful, and the staff are happy to talk about the mezcals on the shelf which are all 100% agave and a lot are artisanal from small producers throughout the states of Mexico. I did a tasting with Maurice and he was incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely excited about the mezcals that they carry. Every one that I had was wildly unique and delicious and having Maurice walk me through the company, where it was produced, the production process and types of agave made for a memorable experience that I will never forget. Also, my wife was pregnant during this trip and the staff made her delicious mocktails that were honestly excellent. Can’t recommend enough! If you are staying at Drift, get food, get cocktails, get mezcal here. If you aren’t staying at Drift, come here, ask questions, eat the food. It is all wonderful.
