Agave bar with Puebla flavors, tacos, unique cocktails
"PDT is hidden behind a phone booth in a hot dog joint on St. Marks. Sister bar Mixteca, a similarly snug spot in the West Village, is parked right on the street behind floor-to-ceiling windows. It’s a much different scene—less speakeasy, more casual coctelería. Like its famous older sibling, the place serves elaborate original creations, with a focus on tequila and mezcal. Want a spicy margarita? You can get one here, but as it goes down, you’ll feel a hit of wasabi. You can also try a carajillo, a tomatillo gin and tonic, or a sweet, nutty tequila old fashioned infused with huitlacoche. Each of the above will run you around $20. This isn’t a spot for marathon drinking, but it is a nice option to kick off your night with a unique cocktail and a taco from the shop next door. photo credit: Eric Medsker" - Bryan Kim
"The second act of One Cornelia, this agave cocktail bar run by co-owner Jeff Bell and lead bartender Victor Lopez pours a menu full of agave spirits ranging from tequila to bacanora to racilla, used in cocktails; already open is Tacos 1986’s first NYC location, with luxe basement bar Kees to come in the fall." - Nadia Chaudhury
"An agave-focused cocktail bar inside the One Cornelia complex led by longtime Please Don’t Tell staffer Victor Lopez; it is set to open in August and will be one of the two cocktail venues in the building where, once the rest of the project opens, customers can order food from the taqueria." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A 45-seat, street-level agave bar going deep on tequila, mezcal, racillia, and more, run by Victor Lopez, one of PDT’s founding staffers. The design will pay homage to Lopez’s hometown of Puebla and the operation is positioned as a distinct, standalone street-level business within the larger complex." - Erika Adams
