Fodor's Review:

Salon Tenampa is the last pulqueria on what was once a square of pulquerias in a city of pulquerias. Que lastima. Pulque is the agave-heart mulch which gets turned into tequila, and capitalinos were once mad for it. The rich, nutritious beverage is something of an acquired taste, and its effects can best be compared to that of a mescaline smoothie. The mix goes bad in 24 hours, so pulque is very hard to get outside the capital and the state of Tequila. Open Sunday through Thursday until at least 3 AM, and even later on Friday and Saturday.
