Really nice little bar directly opposite the garage. Being off B Street, it was much more calm than other drinking establishments nearby. The ability to order Indian street food from Curry Up Now's full menu was a great addition to the drinks available here, and the cocktails themselves featured a lot of unique twists on classics. There was a wide variety to choose from, and even whiskey flights from around the world to try. It was very easy to like, and everything was of...
A nice small bar. Nice name. Liked the music too. The bartender was good and spoke well. They have fusion cocktails too including Indian fusions. We tried the panipuri cocktail with Cognac as the base. It was real good. They mixed fresh Panipuri water with cognac. Had a good taste subtle and refreshing. The bartender was kind enough to offer us a sample on the house. Much appreciated.
Mortal & pestle is a great hidden gem of San Mateo, Anthony was our host for the night and he displayed upmost service and bartending knowledge. Will definitely make this bar a regular spot!
