Went to Camino for a few drinks with friends and really liked it. The atmosphere was chill and made for a great place to hang out and catch up. Drinks were solid, and overall it was a fun night. I’d definitely go back.

Half off alllllllllllll their mezcals during happy hour. And they have about 60 so I’m sure they have one for you. 😉 Our bartender Angel was very professional and very knowledgeable about the Mezcal‘s. They had to offer.
