Loved my experience at Bar Luz! The food was so good and full of flavor, one of the best tacos ive tried and the vibe was amazing. The owner is super nice and share with us his story of opening the store. The staff were super kind and welcoming, which made it even better. I’ll definitely be back!

We discovered Bar Luz since we had reserved at Alma for our anniversary, but they were temporarily closed, so they suggested we rebook at their little sister restaurant right next door (same chef and kitchen). While we were disappointed that we didn't get the chance to try Alma, Bar Luz was a very charming (albeit more casual) experience and we are happy we got to try it. This restaurant places a lot of importance on using traditional methods and ingredients. The corn and peppers are imported, and the corn flour is freshly milled every morning. All tortillas are individually rolled, pressed and cooked to order. We appreciated that our waiter took the time to explain the process to us (service overall was really excellent). In terms of food, everything was exceptional! We asked for a chef's choice and the menu they put together for us was well balanced, fresh, innovative and flavourful. We especially loved the scallop tostada (a work of art!) and cochinita pibil tacos, but everything we had was delicious and we had no complaints about anything we ate. The guajillo shrimps were grilled perfectly and incredibly juicy; the taco del dia (pork carnitas) melted in our mouths; tacos dorado (baja style) were light and crispy, and the sweet potato salad puree was creamy with a lovely smoky spice. For drinks we had mezcalitas and palomas and both of these were great as well. The atmosphere in the restaurant (on a Wednesday evening) was relaxed and intimate. We were seated at the bar and enjoyed speaking with our waiter, who was clearly very passionate about his work and was very attentive throughout the evening. In the summer on weekends, the restaurant apparently has alleyway parties with food on the grill and music. We are looking forward to coming back to try this out.

Excellent Mexican bar / restaurant. Very nice decor. The Tostadas and Tacos 🌮 are amazing. Great vibe and ambiance and super friendly and courteous service. The drinks 🍸 were very well mixed and great taste and proportions presentation is also top notch.
