    This was my second time at Handshake. Just as great as the first time! Came with a party of four and though we had to wait 5-10 minutes despite having a reservation (it was totally packed with people waiting outside who didn't have reservations), it was well worth the wait! All of the drinks were outstanding and truly so unique. The rest of my party, who all experienced Handshake for the first time on this outing, said it was unlike any bar they've ever been to! Awesome experience from start to finish and I will recommend Handshake to anyone visiting CDMX.

    Handshake is a great experience! The service was on point. Everything about the drinks and menu are clearly explained making the cocktail experience unique and adventurous. I personally felt the drinks were overpriced and taking advantage of their world ranking, but a small price to pay for a great experience.

    The cocktails were AMAZING! However, the ambience has areas of improvement. The music was pumping, and it felt like we were at a club. I believe this kind of bar might benefit of a more jazzy vibe.
