Quality modern Mexican meals. Good place to have mole if you haven't tried it - not too over whelming and mixed with modern flavours. Awesome decor.

First meal in Oaxaca. Amazing food, amazing service, amazing everything. Get the traditional shredded chicken w mole. And ask for Omar, he is the best.

Tuna tostadas, ribeye (if you usually order medium-rare, order medium instead), tinto de la casa is superb, chocoate tart with vanilla ice cream. Service is impeccable.

Very nice place and excellent food! Hierba Santa, Chilorio de Pato, Lasagna, Pasta, and Octopus were delicious! Service was super! Reserve or arrive early to be added to the waitlist to get a table.

Beautiful restaurant and absolutely delicious food. Make sure to get the banana dumplings with mole selection. Plenty of vegetarian options also and all clearly marked on the menu.

Came here for a birthday meal and wasn't disappointed! Duck tacos to start, rib eye for mains and chocolate lava cake for dessert, plus several house cocktails. Delicious food and great service

Best place in Oaxaca! Try the mezcal cocktails because there are no better than in this place. Everything we ordered was delicious.
Adela MouJune 5, 2021
The tlayuda and mogo mogo were great. Try to get Omar as your server because he will make your night.

Uniquely designed atmosphere & incredible service made a memorable date night. Food was great, especially the octopus appetizer. Loved the Piñata cocktails: strong, tasty & Damiana is an aphrodisiac;)

We only stopped for afternoon cocktails in the front bar, but all four drinks were excellent. They put a lot of time into ingredients and presentation. Great service too.

Tuna tartare again and again and again. Beautiful venue and great service. We were served by Gabriela and she was the sweetest. This place is a MUST GO in Oaxaca

Tuna tostadas were flavor country. Chew slow to savor the flavors. Tortilla soup very nice, and well presented. Wish I could have tried everything on the menu, twice

You probably can't go wrong with any dish here. What we got: duck tacos, spinach salad, ribs, and tlayuda. 13 different mezcal cocktails; we liked mezcal with tamarind.

I didn’t even like mole until I came here. Try the mole sampler (appetizer). The stuffed chicken with mole is also great.

Another must see place in Oaxaca. By now, also a staple. Go during the day to appreciate the design

Best meal we’ve had. Incredible flavors, portions are good even for starters, and basically free compared to US prices for similar food.

The mole tasting is awesome. Every dish was amazing - you can’t go wrong.

Amazing place!! Is a no brained if you're in Oaxaca. Amazing food, service and place they took care of every detail.
Nancy HoMay 11, 2017
Food was ok, service was even better and the restaurant/atmosphere was amazing. My only downfall was we tried some dishes that weren't "local", deffs try local dishes to have 10/10 experience
Erik MichielsenJanuary 13, 2016
Mogo Mogo a must. Also try the pulpo and the sopa de huitlacoche
JonasFebruary 13, 2017
Amazing food: contemporary Mexican cuisine in a very pleasant outdoor setting with great value for money.
Steve HarrisJanuary 4, 2018
Mezcal con jengibre cocktail is excellent. Hierbo Santo was delicious. Can't go wrong with any dish here@

Tasting of 5 moles, octopus and short ribs
Chris HadfieldSeptember 22, 2017
Stunning setting and great service. Food was good but not exceptional. Didn't quite live up to the billing, like a band that's slightly out of time on the night.
Megan DuongAugust 31, 2020
Mole tasting and shrimp tacos with cheese yerrr

Excellent service, amazing food, great ambiance.
Giovanna RojasJune 4, 2012
Try the hoja santa it's good but the duck tacos are the best. The fish mojomojo is not that great. The medallions with grasshoppers, yum

And duck tacos are amazing
Javier LorenzoJune 26, 2016
The decoration and the ambient are way better than food. Unfortunately the menu is very ambitious and dishes don't reach the expectations.
...go with the flow... ...February 17, 2015
Great Interior and very good cooking!
Alain W.November 6, 2022
Very expensive. Drinks called "This is not a Mojito" in french, and it is really not a Mojito but rather a Sprite & whatever. Not worth the money! Never again.
fiona lloydAugust 31, 2015
The duck tacos are yummy!
TylerOctober 6, 2016
Super young my but definitely a gringo trap.
Jason LittrellFebruary 13, 2012
