Artemio Vasquez: A New York Cocktail Story, Rooted in Oaxaca

Artemio Vasquez: A New York Cocktail Story, Rooted in Oaxaca

Before Ay Güey NYC, there was Pegu Club. Artemio Vasquez's journey from Oaxaca into New York's cocktail scene began behind the bar washing glasses, watching closely, and learning the craft one service at a time. What drew him in was the detail: the balance of a drink, the precision of its preparation, and the care that turns a cocktail into an experience. His background at Pegu Club and PDT (Please Don't Tell) is part of what makes the bar at Ay Güey different. Here in Woodside, Queens, Artemio brings that cocktail experience together with his Mexican roots, giving tequila and mezcal a central place at the table. Craft cocktails and agave tasting flights invite guests to explore beyond their usual pour. The kitchen and bar tell the story together: Sinaloan aguachiles, mariscos, and ceviches alongside cocktails that deserve just as much attention as the food. Come for the coastal Mexican seafood. Stay to discover the bar, and the person behind it.

The aguachiles are the real deal, tastes just like home in Sinaloa. Fresh, spicy and perfect. And the mezcal cocktails are on another level!

Came for the cocktails, stayed for the mariscos. You can tell the bartender knows what hes doing, best drinks in Woodside hands down.
