Are you on the lookout for an exceptional dining experience that transports you to the heart of Mexico? Look no further than Mezcal Spirit of Oaxaca, a gem nestled smack in the middle of Centre Street in downtown Fernandina Beach. This culinary haven, operated by the same fantastic family behind the beloved Pablos, delivers a treat for your taste buds in an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere.
Step into Mezcal, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the allure of Mexico’s rich culinary heritage. The interior is as beautiful as the dishes that grace your table – a delightful blend of bold flavors and inviting ambiance.
Start your culinary journey with the unbelievably good Mezcal Mussels, a dish infused with Mezcal amber beer, chorizo, garlic, cilantro, and jalapeño. It’s a perfect introduction to the diverse and savory palette that Mezcal has to offer.
For the main course, indulge in some of our favorites including the Chile Colorado, crafted from Grandma’s cherished chile guajillo recipe and featuring braised pork tips, rice, black beans, and tortillas; and the Duck Mole Enchiladas, made with duck carnitas, quest fresco, mole oaxaca rice, roasted sesame seed, red onions and sour cream. A burst of flavor that is unmatched! Alternatively, savor the ever-popular street tacos or fajitas, a crowd-pleaser that never disappoints.
No visit to Mezcal is complete without experiencing the artistry behind their handcrafted margaritas, made with the finest tequila. Whether you prefer classic or adventurous flavors, these margaritas are sure to complement your meal perfectly.
Cap off your dining experience on a sweet note with Flan, a traditional Mexican dessert, or the irresistible Churro – a fried pastry coated in cinnamon and sugar with a decadent dulce de leche filling. You won’t be disappointed.
What sets Mezcal Spirit of Oaxaca apart is not only the culinary excellence but also the dedicated family behind the scenes. As one satisfied patron raves, “By far the best real Mexican food with a twist. Fantastic atmosphere and great service. This dedicated family enjoys what they cook and it shows in the quality of their food. Will continue to eat here on a regular basis!”
