Tried mezcal with crickets for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Really cool experience. Staff was quick and friendly. Prices are a bit high, but fair given the quality.

Here is my take on the place. If you like tequila and shots this place can be very good. However I think it’s a big overpriced and the margaritas are a bit weak for the price. I do want to comment they have a huge selection of different types of tequila which makes this place very unique.

I went a few days ago, and the bartender was drunk. He told me his name was José Martinez and he was Mexican. He honestly treated me contemptuously, and when he got close to my mouth, he smelled strongly of alcohol. A person isn't supposed to work drunk, especially in a high-end bar. What an unpleasant experience. I won't go to a place where a drunk serves you again.

Bar tender was so rude to me after i asked a simple question. So sad that a place to nice made me feel so sad and embarrassed

What was supposed to be a magical day turned into a frustrating and upsetting experience. I approached the bar and was initially greeted by two servers, José and Fran. I needed a few minutes to look over the menu—no more than three—but once I was ready, they completely ignored me. Despite clearly seeing that I was no longer browsing the menu and just waiting, they served multiple guests who arrived after me.
I waited around 10 minutes, feeling increasingly uncomfortable, until I finally had to call someone over to get their attention. Only after a woman (possibly a manager) intervened did Fran come to take my order.
When I went to pay, my husband offered his card, but Fran insisted on seeing his ID—even though the drink was for me and my husband wasn’t drinking. I was already frustrated and just wanted to leave. I ended up paying with my phone using the same card through Apple Pay, which made the ID request pointless.
To make things worse, I asked for a receipt, and Fran refused to hand it to me, saying the next copy was ours. It felt like unnecessary pushback at every step of the process.
I’ve had many wonderful experiences at Disney, but sadly, this was not one of them. I will not be returning to the bar at the Mexico Pavilion, and I hope others have a more respectful and considerate experience than we did.

All of our drinks were premade and they just poured the mix into a glass after waited half an hour to order. For 20$ a drink plus tip, we thought we’d at least be getting a decent drink but they weren’t strong and if we’d known the quality was so low we would’ve just gone to one of the drink stands on the world route and at least gotten something with some liquor in it. Felt like a gimmick.

This place has absolutely cratered in quality since I last visited. The most egregious thing was, after paying and tipping the bartenders, they forgot half of my order. Not once, but twice. Both times they looked at me like I was an idiot for still standing and waiting there, as if I should leave without the rest of my drinks I'd paid them for.

Besides that, seemingly every drink is now premade and poured out of a pitcher or blender they just keep prepped behind the counter. And the quality of the drinks is far inferior while costing a decent bit more than when I was last here a few years ago.

It's really a shame, because Mexico used to have the absolute best drinks of anywhere in the Epcot World Showcase. I definitely wouldn't waste money on any of the more expensive drinks here anymore.

A+ service - our waiter was charming and funny and friendly - and the avocado margs are *SO GOOD* - I just wish they had a FEW more food options. There is just chips and queso, guac, and chips. The salsa is quite smoky, and we really enjoyed the queso. It's a really small spot and feels like a cozy tequila bar. You can order drinks to go.

I’ve been going to Cava since it opened - back in the days when you didn’t have to line up to enter. The favorites are the Blood Orange, the Cucumber, and The Lily (pricey, but worth every penny). Never tried the food!

My favorite place in EPCOT. A great place to hide during afternoon heat and crowds.

We heard that you didn’t really do the Epcot drinking around the world if you didn’t go to La Cava and get an avocado margarita. We were disappointed on all fronts. After waiting in a long line, where we were aggressively told to wait along the wall many times, it was our turn. We approached the bar, where another cast member made sure that we stood up against the bar. Two gentlemen tended to me and my two friends. He then charged my friend for all 3 of our drinks. I left the establishment to find somewhere to sit. The gentlemen that did not check us out ran after us to tell us that I didn’t pay my bill. He forced my friend to pay for ANOTHER margarita, even though we had already paid for our 3. They were very aggressive with the entire experience and we were not impressed. The avocado margarita was not worth all of this - as many have said, it’s too commercialized now and comes out of a pre-mixed blender.

My fave drinking lounge in Epcot is this small yet lively lounge located in the Mexican pavilion!! The bartenders will make most tequila drink requests and I’ve never been disappointed. My faves are the avacado and I ask for a spicy skinny mescal marg with a tahini rim and it’s fire! So goood!! My friend always gets the black magic. The chips and dips are also def worth getting you get so much to eat and service is always pretty on top of it. Enjoy and savor the magic! You will leave a happy camper!
