Bar Flores

It's impossible not to fall in love with Bar Flores, the tasteful, windows-open, patio-buzzing bar from Karla Flores-Mercado. There's family written all over the space: Her father, a restaurant-industry vet, can even be found serving hefty tamales out back. These vibes only further the casual, breezy, welcoming atmosphere, while the cocktails—by far some of the best in the neighborhood—keep a focus on mezcal and fresh produce.
