Very good and creative food. I had the chicken stuffed with plantain in a mole sauce. Also had a tamarind refresco. They give you a delicious piece of Oaxacan chocolate with the bill.

Walking distance from my hotel, clean, excellent COVID protocols, happy, friendly, attentive staff, clean tables, spacious rooms, prices reasonable for tourists, great drinks, my dish was excellent. Looks like a mole, but with a guava based sauce., nuts and white rice. I would definitely go back. Clean, clean restrooms. Enjoy

Great experience. Typical Oaxaca cuisine. During COVID there is only one waitress, so do not expect service to the the fastest, however you never feel forgotten. The patio in the back is very private and cozy. The highlight of the night was the Zandunga.

Amazing, unforgettable food! We loved the bolognese lasagna with plantains and the chicken filet with goat cheese and mushrooms with zucchini sauce. Best food in Oaxaca! Also the atmosphere with the internal yard is super nice for dinner. Don't miss it!

Great spot a bit out of the way of the central part of the city. Great mezcal margarita, hibiscus cone (yum!!) and squash blossom quesadilla. I was happy to be able to buy each item a la carte as many places here have more robust portions so this was a nice light option that allowed me to try these popular items in smaller portions.

I was the only patron here at dusk on a Wednesday evening which is a shame as my dinner was delicious and served on their delightful patio. Though they have seating outside in the front, make sure you head to the back patio to avoid the street noise. I simply went with the staff recommendations. I started with a slightly tart and fresh ceviche, followed by a perfectly cooked white fish on a banana leaf. I ended with a mezcal mouse. Head there now and take a friend.

This place lets you enjoy delicious and creative food in a lovely open courtyard. There's a lot of exotic dishes to choose from. I went for the chicken with plantains in mole sauce and got a memorable food experience in return. I will definitely be back for more.
