Ghost Donkey: A Celebration of Mexican Flavors
Phoenix, Ariz. - Ghost Donkey, a vibrant addition to the city's bar scene, captures the essence of Mexico with its lively atmosphere, delicious food, and innovative agave cocktails. Founded by Avroko Hospitality Group, the bar transports guests to a world of bold colors, upbeat music (Reggae-Ton and Cumbia), and simple, flavorful dishes.
While the spellbinding color-changing lights and the energy of the music add to the experience, the true star of the show is the beverage program.
