What an incredible little bar! If you love rum like I do, this is the most obvious stop of all time - you have to go & check out their amazing selection of rums. That said, if you don't (or think you don't) like rum, you might enjoy El Pequeno even more, because I absolutely guarantee you will have one of the most delicious beverages of your life & leave with a new understanding of what rum can be.

It's such a unique, fun little spot & the service is exceptional. Your best bet is to ignore the (really cool, baseball card-style) menu altogether & have whoever is behind the bar whip you up something to your tastes.

If I could only pick one spot in this city to drink, El Pequeno would be getting all my business; as much for the awesome service & people behind the bar as the insane cocktails.

I cannot speak highly enough of this place - the bartenders & service are always exceptional, as are the drinks. Every new friend or family member I bring falls in love with it, too.
