We open at 1pm, but then there’s a surprise Happy Hour from 2pm-3pm, which means $7 margs, palomas, ranch waters, and more.
From 3pm-5pm, head down to the basement bar to try to identify six high-proof tequilas blind in a fun tequila quiz. Get them all right and you’ll win something sweet! This is a perfect way to hone your tequila knowledge. $20 per try.
From 5pm-7pm, ArteNOM will be in the house doing a complimentary tasting! Get hear early for this limited supply tasting and hear about how this brand produces small batches at various iconic tequila distilleries around Jalisco.
At 8pm, Phoenix Funkeros step into the Cumbia Kombi VW bus outside and spin funk, soul, and all the Latin bangers for their monthly Slickback Saturdays (first Saturday of every month).
SUNDAY, MAY 4
We open at 2pm with Quimbara, our Latin Brunch, with DJ’s Caramelo and Son Sebas out on the patio. Drinks, dancing, mingling, and tacos from Procecho - Sunday Funday!
From 2pm-4pm, enjoy a complimentary tasting of Brazo Fuerte Aguardiente from Oaxaca, Mexico! That’s right … Aguardiente. From. Mexico. It’s organic sugarcane rum crafted by 4th generation producers - come hear about them and try the juice!
At 5pm, Sueños Tequila is holding a bartender competition in the basement and it’s open for all to cheer on their favorites. Enjoy Sueños cocktail specials and complimentary sips throughout the contest.
From 7pm-11pm our weekly karaoke turns into a battle between the songs of Vicente Fernandez and Paquita la del Barrio. C'mon, you know you wanna…
CINCO DE MAYO
Don’t believe Google when it shows we’re closed, because this Monday, we’re definitely open! Hours: 3pm-11pm. The house margarita is made with Azuñia Blanco for just $10 and they’re the perfect excuse to cut out of work early for Cinco festivities. Provecho taco truck will be open for snacks at 3pm, too.
We’ll be featuring a cocktail with the new Corona Sunbrew, a cloudy lager made with orange and lime. The cocktail’s also made with the new Weber Ranch Vodka, a vodka made with blue weber agave!
At 5pm, the birria kings of Phoenix, Sabor A Mi, will pop-up on the patio. Keeping our Cinco tradition alive, they will break out the Santa Maria and grill mole chicken for platters of deliciousness. Of course they will still have birria tacos, nachos, and egg rolls.
From 7pm-9pm, local bartender, Moises Castro of Carry On is popping up in the basement bar, serving Patrón Tequila, Ilegal Mezcal, and Cazadores Tequila cocktails for an event called Flavors Of Immigration. Castro will be telling his personal story through these drinks, so swing by and try these special cocktails.
DJ Oh Jesus! will be keeping us going all night for Cinco.
As always, every mezcal from Puebla is half off all day/night.
Provecho Taco Truck will have chicken tinga specials rolling all weekend with tostadas, burritos, and tacos.
