Dzalbay

Awesome food and service. The atmosphere and the music were wonderful. First time here and definitely won’t be our last!!!.

Live music was the reason why we decided to visit this place. It was well worth it! Accordion in accompaniment of 3 guitars and great voice made it all better. Food was great and beer is always good. Thank you for a wonderful time.

A great venue with lots of atmosphere to listen to some great music last night. The service was quick. Innovative cocktail menu. Tried the Billie Jean and the Nina Simone both interesting. Good range of beers.

Really nice bar with live music in the evening & a lovely rooftop terrace. It reminded us in general of a pub :) prices are great, drinks are tasty and also the food (we only had hummus) was good. Every evening there is another band playing. If you come by before 7pm you will get a table.

The food is okay, the drinks you can find anywhere but the atmosphere and live music are stellar. Excellent acoustics and the jazz players in Merida are first rate.

Cool place in Centro Merida. Great music and beers. Unfortunately the servers are quite discriminatory against Mexicans. They will take forever (20 minutes before first approach) to talk to you but will take orders from foreign customers that sit and arrive after you. They won't let you order at the bar either if you are at a table, so it makes for a poor experience overall.

Brilliant musicians, acoustic beyond my expectations, desserts are amazing and the number of liquors available is very impressive. Service is excellent once you are inside, but you need to wait on the street if the place is full as it is quite small, no reservations available, recommended to arrive before 7.30 pm as it closes 10 pm straight.

We attended this establishment twice during our visit to Mérida, as it was recommended by friends who had traveled here, a local guide, and a local resident. The place offers great-priced drinks; the margaritas were brilliant, and there was a large selection of beers to choose from. Although we did not eat, many of the tables around us did. The olives served with the cocktails (not much at all) came highly recommended and did not disappoint. The atmosphere was delightful with live music, featuring jazz on the first night and blues on the second. The music was not too loud, allowing for conversation while still creating a great ambiance. The servers adopted a relatively relaxed and chill approach, which added to the laid-back vibe of the place. Thanks for two great evenings. We will definitely be recommending this spot to anyone visiting Mérida.

Aug 2024 * Friends As far as I'm concerned, this place is it. If, while in Mérida, you can't find the "there" there, you will find it at Dzalbay Cantina. Everything is top-notch: food, drink, MUSIC, ambiance. Note: the other night I was there, had a few and departed quickly when my Uber arrived. I forgot my wallet! The next day, it was there waiting for me. Nothing had been taken. Where else in the world could that happen?

Very cool place with an interesting vibe, crowd, and music. Friendly service made me feel immediately welcome. Crowd was an eclectic mix of ages and several expats. Drink was great and really enjoyed the mix of the blues and bluegrass.

What a surprise! Strolling back to the hotel we were drawn to the sound of live music. I thought we were in New Orleans for a minute! First rate musicians.

Great music, good drinks and a fun atmosphere! You can even enjoy the music from the rooftop seating.

Dzalby is a very tiny venue. We were enthralled with a local jazz combo, but the limited seating forced to the roof . Unfortunately, we could not hear the jazz combo, only canned music. The food was underwhelming. Our sever was exceptional and welcoming. The special house cocktails were creative, my Cab Calloway with guava and vodka was great! Get there early to secre a main floor table.

we went here for drinks ended up staying for the live music and the extremely friendly server. We had such a nice time that we even tried to buy a T-shirt so we could remember this bar forever. It's got a beautiful rooftop, a cozy lounge with couches, and although we didn't have food many people were eating and everybody was having a great time. The band that plays there was an amazing jazz band that kept us there tapping our toe and sipping our drinks.

Amazing music!!!! You have to come check out this cantina when you can. Great food, wonderful atmosphere & great drinks. This place is a must!
