Esquire magazine has included the 50/50/50 martini at Via Vecchia in their 2025 list of the Best Martinis in America.
Herewith, we unveil Esquire’s Best Martinis in America Right Now. You’ll find the classic, perfectly executed, in several establishments around the country. You’ll also find one in New York made with za’atar, and one in New Orleans that incorporates a pineapple amaro (and does so ably). We hope our list inspires red-faced debates and spittled diatribes, and maybe a little joy in these joy-challenged times.
