Cantina La Dominica

Known fortequilatapastraditional Mexican food
A 100+ year old cantina in Centro Histórico that's still mostly local despite its reputation, with live guitar, cheap drinks, and complimentary tapas with each round. The bartenders know how to entertain visitors, but this feels authentically Mexican rather than touristy. Come for traditional tequila and the street-side people-watching—just know it's a standing-room, old-school kind of place.
