Mezcaleria Alma

Mezcaleria Alma is a Mexican restaurant at 2550 15th St in Denver's LoHi neighborhood, led by Chef Johnny Curiel. The menu draws on Mexico City cooking, with small plates that lean toward seafood, such as aguachile, crudo and a smoked mussel mollete, alongside dishes like flautas de pollo, pork belly and braised short rib.

The bar centers on mezcal, with more than 120 agave spirits, plus cocktails, non-alcoholic cocktails, Mexican beer and wine, and Mexican sake. It sits beside Curiel's first solo restaurant, Alma Fonda Fina. Reservations are accepted and online ordering is available.
