Mezcali Brings Southern Californian-Mexican Fare to Lower Manhattan

There’s no end to the tasty dining options in Lower Manhattan, and now we can add one more delectable spot to our list — Mezcali, a new Cali-Mex eatery that recently opened at 83 Maiden Lane.

The new spot is the “​​brainchild of two best friends from Southern California who grew up skateboarding and satisfying their afternoon hunger pangs with Cali-Mex food,” according to its website, and the menu features a mix of classic burritos, tacos and quesadillas.

An extensive cocktail list includes enticing options like the frozen Palabra Finale, made with mezcal, green chartreuse, Luxardo Marashino liqueur and lime; and the Ancestral Old Fashioned, made with Abosolo Mexican Whiskey, Nixta Liquor de Elote, Piloncillo and mole. There’s a wine and beer list as well.

Peruse their menu here and keep an eye out for future events. You can make a reservation online.
