We had a great first meal here while in Oaxaca. The food and service were both excellent and had they been open on Monday we would have eaten here again. Two thumbs up!

Excellent food, great service, and cute outdoor dining space. Great place for our first meal in Oaxaca. Favorites were the queso fundido and the shrimp tacos. But everything was really great.

Had breakfast here 3 times and really enjoyed everything we ordered - fruit with yoghurt, chilaquilles, brioche bread with fruit and Crema Catalana, and omelette with sauteed vegetables. Delicious coffee and friendly smiley service. This place is a real breakfast gem!

This little hidden restaurant was such a wonderful experience. We were sitting in their cute backyard. The food was fantastic, not only well presented it was scrumptious! The waiters where super friendly and ambitious. I took only one star away for ambiente because there wherent a lot of people at that time and the music wasn't my taste but these two facts are very personal. So I can highly recommend this beautiful, lovely delicious restaurant!! the shrimp taco's and the house salad 10/10 !! I will dream of them. Thank you for the great experience. See you hopefully soon.

this was the first place i ate when i got to oaxaca and the last place i ended my trip at (plus a couple times in between)! it happened to be near the place we were staying but it was truly some of the best food i had in oaxaca. i did only have the tacos de arrachera (skirt steak) so can’t speak to the rest, but they were SO TASTY. 10/10 recommend, esp sitting in the back outdoor bit.
