" I had a fantastic evening at The Cabinet! The mezcal selection is second to none, and I was pleasantly surprised by the $3 tacos—truly tasty and quite a steal! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about the different agave spirits and recommended a flight that was perfect for my palate. The ambiance is cozy yet vibrant, and it makes for a great spot whether you're with friends or on a date. Overall, I can't wait to come back and explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" While looking for a unique spot to enjoy mezcal, I stumbled upon The Cabinet. Honestly, I had high hopes based on the reviews, but my visit didn’t quite meet my expectations. The service was friendly but incredibly slow, leading to a frustrating wait for our drinks. I did enjoy the mezcal flight, which was diverse and well-presented. However, my food left much to be desired; the tacos felt overpriced for the quality received. It's a mixed experience for me—great drinks but disappointing food and services. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Cabinet Mezcal Bar last weekend, and it was quite the experience! The cocktails were lovingly crafted; however, they took a long time to arrive, which was a bit disappointing. When they finally came, the flavors were rich and vibrant, showcasing the high-quality ingredients used. The vibe was pleasant and perfect for a relaxed evening, though I felt the intimate seating might be a little cramped during peak hours. I'd recommend this place to anyone who's a fan of mezcal, but possibly skip the busy weekends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I celebrated our anniversary here, and it did not disappoint! From the mezcal flight to the attentive service, everything was on point. The staff went out of their way to make our experience memorable, even bringing us a special cocktail for the occasion. The cozy atmosphere made it intimate and romantic. We left planning our next visit almost immediately! Highly recommend it for a date night or celebration. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Cabinet Mezcal Bar is a small yet mighty bar! Don’t underestimate its intimate atmosphere; they offer an impressive range of mezcals. The cocktails I ordered were stunningly crafted. However, I wasn’t too pleased with the food quality. Portion size felt small for the price. Regardless, the drink experience outweighs those drawbacks. I will certainly be coming back for another cocktail adventure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Got to say, The Cabinet is now my go-to spot for mezcal! I took a small group here, and we tasted a bunch of their cocktails—each one was uniquely delicious. Every drink was crafted wonderfully! The atmosphere was very chill, allowing us to unwind after a long week. Food-wise, we shared a few things, and while they weren't standout dishes, they paired well with the mezcal. I can't wait to come back for the next happy hour! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is hands down the best mezcal bar I’ve been to! The drinks are expertly crafted with love and attention. The staff provided an incredible tasting experience that transported me right to Oaxaca, with a true focus on authenticity. Although the food was delightful, I wish they had more hearty options. It's the perfect spot for a mezcal lover like me! " (*Curated Review*)
