Añejo 8.7
Hell's Kitchen

Añejo is a Hell’s Kitchen anchor for chef-driven small plates and one of the neighborhood’s deepest agave lists. The cooking leans contemporary without losing the soul of tacos, moles, and masa-based starters, and the room hums pre- and post-theater. Come for the barbacoa and carnitas, stay for a mezcal flight that actually feels curated.
Must-Try Dishes: Lamb barbacoa tacos, Carnitas tacos with consommé, Cauliflower tacos

Insider tip: Ask for a mezcal recommendation by flavor, not brand.
