"What with aguachile and escabeche, lomo de cerdo and chorizo parrillero, churros and congelados (frozen cocktails) making the rounds, it’s a pan-Latin fiesta in here every night — and beyond: The party starts at 3 p.m. with one of the city’s liveliest happy hours and continues through Sunday brunch, when avocado toast gets a twist from cactus salsa and fries come topped with chicharrones." - Josie Sexton
"Whatever rowdy undergrad magnet churning out margaritas by the gallon you might be picturing based on the name, Señor Bear isn’t it. The place exudes a breezy, even peaceful, charm, dotted with wicker lampshades and potted plants—and anchored by a wraparound bar that definitely doesn’t do bottom-shelf margs. The drinks it does do are as thoughtful, playful, refreshing, and bold as the contemporary Latin American cuisine from chef Blake Edmunds. In short, while Señor Bear can definitely start a party, it’s a classy fiesta all the way—not least during Sunday brunch." - Ruth Tobias
"The menu changes seasonally and the kitchen is always running killer delicious specials." - Sophie Friedman
"The normal happy hour menu is worth checking out this week at Señor Bear; it features pigeon pea escabeche with plantain chips and arepas with pickled onion and braised pork." - Camila Navarrette
"The $9 daily “congelado” comes in a variety of iced mixtures and flavors. It’s on special during happy hour for $5, served along with bites from empanadas to ceviche tostadas." - Camila Navarrette
