nightlife

This reservation-only cocktail joint is located through what looks like an everyday taqueria in Mexico City's Polanco neighborhood. But at an otherwise nondescript refrigerator door, visitors are enquired of their names before descending into this fashionista mixology bar. The eyes take a minute to adjust to the dim light that surrounds a mostly black and white scene of polished concrete floors, black leather decor and architectural elements that add an element of Rick Owens meets Mayan metropolis. An American-trained staff attends a small bar that serves up include cocktails using a medley of unconventional ingredients. Music ranges from sultry house to amped electronic sets by weekend DJs that spin till 2am.

Tips

Reservations are required for entrance and accessed via the club’s direct website.
