WELCOME TO MEZCALITO

At Mezcalito We're a family, united by our love for great food, vibrant music, and exceptional service.

Thriving to ensure we are the family oriented joint you are happy to dine at.

MEZCALITO was born in early 2015, when founders saw the need for a restaurant for all. Something that would meet in the middle where we could serve food and drinks for all pallets and socio-economic groups, because all deserve to have a unique experience they cannot have elsewhere- nice music, beautiful scenery, good food, and great drinks. This was then when owners overcame their own personal fears of pursuing their real dream of having something of their own after working for decades elsewhere. Always with the purpose to proudly serve flavorful and colorful meals that better describe the origins of Mexican cuisine; bringing new flare and fresh ideas by incorporating trendy and traditional authentic elements.

I made this reservation. Upon arriving at the establishment, they were CLOSED. I had to provide a credit card with stipulation that failure to show up would result in a charge per person (I believe it stated that charge to be $15/person). I understand this was Christmas Eve, but open table should not allow for reservations to closed restaurants.
