| - As others have said, Reposado serves up tequila far superior to any of the crap you remember puking up in college. Instead of making a pained, sour pickle face as you down it, you feel as dignified as a diplomat while you sip a selection of premium tequilas hand-selected for you by a knowledgeable and personable staff.
Our bartender, Eddie, attended to us with such care and customization I felt like I was meeting with a mortgage consultant or wedding planner. He quizzed us on our favourite types of alcohol and price points to finally suggest the perfect flight for us to sample - Milagro brand tequila.
A flight is a series of one ounce servings of a brand of tequila (they have tons of them) in each of the three stages of tequila's lifespan - blanco (white, or virgin), reposado ("rested") and añejo ("aged"). The lot is served on a tray with Sangrita, a sort of spicy tomato shot that you can sip like a chaser in between swills of tequila. Don't be fooled by the tequila shot glasses though - this isn't the Madison and you're not meant to down these in one swallow. Sit back and enjoy as you work your way from brisk blanco to smooth añejo.
Reposado also has excellent margaritas, including classic (reposado margarita), blood orange (a house favourite) and mango. Try them all. Also be sure to try some of their excellent beers - they have Delerium Tremens and apparently, according to my beer aficionado friends, this is quite the find. Savour it!
