Todd V. Wolfson

It's one of Austin's cruel jokes that so many of our mezcalerias require navigating stairs. But we would gladly climb 10 flights to get to Techo's tiny rooftop bar. If you are planning a seduction, arrive when the sun has fully set and grab the tiny alcove by the bar (buy the lingering couple still occupying it a mezcal flight if you must). Then let the candles flickering off the tiles do most of the work for you.
