About Providencia
Behind a breeze-block facade on a side street off H Street, a narrow room with a concrete-topped bar, warm yellow backlighting and a handful of tables holds a small crowd, and there is usually a wait. The drinks are the point: cocktails built on oolong, spices and milk, with names such as Run Bing with Nai Nai, Lights of the Night Market and Little Hats and Fast Trains, balanced so each listed element comes through. The kitchen is more than an afterthought, and tamales in leaf wrappers, a grilled sandwich, noodles and a meringue-crowned baked Alaska all draw praise. It opens 5pm to midnight Tuesday to Saturday. Reviewers describe the mood as informal for how serious the drinks are, and the room is flagged as LGBTQ+ friendly. Google rates it 4.8 from about 160 reviews, and reservations are accepted.
