Una Más – Mezcaleria, located in the vibrant neighborhood of Sea Point, has quickly become a go-to spot for food and spirit enthusiasts. The restaurant’s menu and expansive selection of spirits are crafted with a passion for authentic Mexican cuisine, tequila, and mezcal. Paying homage to the ancestral traditions of the celebrated mezcal spirit, which is considered the spirit of the gods, Una Más offers a unique dining experience that will leave you yearning for more.

The Rapidly Growing Mezcal Market in Cape Town

Since it opened in February of last year, Una Más has played a significant role in the growth of Cape Town’s mezcal market. Mezcal’s smoky and complex flavors have captured the hearts of many, making it the fastest-growing spirit globally. The tequila and mezcal industry in Mexico faces challenges to meet the worldwide demand as agave plants require up to ten years to mature before being harvested and distilled. Despite these challenges, mezcal continues to captivate enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide.

A Diverse Menu To Satisfy Every Palate

Una Más does not stop at mezcal. Instead, they offer a diverse menu featuring an array of authentic Mexican dishes and an impressive selection of tequilas. From exciting tapas to satisfying burrito bowls, there is something to suit every palate.

Delectable Bites and Tapas

Begin your culinary journey with the delectable bites and tapas that will transport you straight to Mexico. The house-made tortilla chips and pepita guacamole, served with mezcal red chili and green chili/olive salsas, serves as a flavorful introduction to your meal. The battered cauliflower with adobo and queso tresco or the tuna ceviche with cilantro, coconut, soy sauce, pistachio, and pomegranate are a must-try. For adventurous foodies, the grillo chapulin taco, featuring air-roasted edible crickets, avocado, parsley, and a mix of fresh herbs is a must-try.

Scrumptious Bowls and Sides

Una Más elevates Mexican cuisine with their delicious bowls and sides. The tazón de burrito, a burrito bowl filled with your choice of chicken, beef, or beans, accompanied by cilantro-scented rice, avocado guac, street corn, and queso fresco, is a must-try. If you’re in the mood for loaded nachos, Una Más has you covered with their mouthwatering nachos cargados, topped with guacamole, queso fresco, cilantro, and frijoles. The elotes pozole, a creamy corn chowder infused with guajillo, lime, coconut, and jalapeños, is also worth a try.

A Sweet Finale

No meal is complete without a sweet finish, and Una Más delivers on all fronts. Indulge in their signature churros, served with house-made chocolate molé, or satisfy your sweet tooth with nachos de leche – cinnamon-coated chocolate tortilla chips.
