Casa Mezcal

The Write-Up

The full story

Casa Mezcal is a stunning, elegant room on International Drive, festive and full of character, built around mezcal and tequila poured with conviction. Live dancers move through the room, a hidden speakeasy called Aphrodisiaco waits behind the scenes, and guests call the whole thing an elevated experience. Prices run high, and diners say the drinks and appetizers outshine the entrees, so come for the spectacle and the pours.

The story of International Drive
