Maria Mezcaleria
Mezcal is in the name, on Austin Avenue in downtown Waco, which tells you what the back bar is built around.
Good to know
- Ring ahead. No hours and no booking route are posted where a visitor can find them.
- It is Suite 102, in the 700 block of Austin Avenue.
Verdict
listed — A room that calls itself a mezcaleria in a town this size is making a promise about the back bar, and mezcal poured straight is a different business from tequila in a margarita. That promise is the whole of the case, because no account of the cooking, the list or the person behind either has been established. The rung reflects the size of that gap and says nothing about the room.
