Juanito's is a one-room cocktail bar from manager and mixologist John. A Filipino transplant, you might recognize John as the bar manager from The Parrot night club and Italo. Both venues are from the Funka Group (Funkadeli), it's that sort of scene combined with regulars from the tight-knit Filipino community reflecting his own background. John is your host for your time there, serving cheap-ish, boozy, fun, and approachable Mescal-heavy cocktails and the odd complimentary shot of something interesting to keep things moving. There's a section of signature drinks which are twists on classics — different combinations of simple flavors — classics, 2 beers on draft, and a nifty selection of wines.
On the menu is classic Filipino dishes reworked as tapas style bar bites.
Fair prices! 68rmb for signature cocktails; 60rmb for classics; wine bottles start at 288rmb; draft beer is 50rmb. Driving home that neighborhood bar vibe, they've got lots of rotating specials. Ladies night on Thursdays is buy-one-get-one on all cocktails; every Sunday night is late night happy hour with reduced prices on all drinks from 9pm to midnight; Mondays is specials on mescal.
