    Rayo es uno de mis top 5 bares favoritos en la ciudad. Se nota muchisimo la inspiración en México, tanto en el menú como en la decoración. Usan varios ingredientes ya establecidos como la hoja santa, así como otros más regionales que aún guardan mucha tradición, como el tascalate. Los tragos son excelentes, bien balanceados en cuanto a sabor de los ingredientes más el alcohol. El lugar es bastante acogedor, fresco pero no frío. No comimos nada pero el menú de alimentos tiene varias cosas interesantes, definitivamente probaré alguno la próxima vez que vaya. La única razón por la que no les doy 5 estrellas fue porque el servicio fue un poco lento, no me quejo porque el lugar estaba lleno, era viernes y solo había dos meseros.

    Solid cocktails, great spirits. Miguel was a big part of our experience being great, sitting down with us and walking us through flights of various spirits and giving recommendations for the area.

    Los cócteles deliciosos y muy bien logrados, pedimos el chicken surprise que nos sorprendió mucho (estaba muy bueno), las tostadas de camarones un poco flojas, sin mucho sabor.

    Amazing experience!! Cocktails were so good and good price. I love how the menu shows you sweetness, potent, and bitterness level. Out server also explained each drink to us when delivering it to us. Atmosphere was very good as well. 10/10 recommend!! I also recommend making a reservation ahead of time!
