    Had such a lovely early dinner. Service was incredible and highly recommend their house mezcal. Got to meet the owners and enjoyed some really nice conversation with them. The food was so good too… definitely going back.

    The restaurant is wonderfuly decorated. And the service was flawless. Everyone spoke slowly with me in Spanish so I could practice. Unfortunaly, in a nearly empty restuarant my food could have been hotter.

    Pretty restaurant. The beef tacos were delicious. The chicken soup was bland. The drinks were tasty and the kitchen was clean. The service is not like other high-end restaurants in Oaxaca like the cathedral restaurant. The margaritas are good.

    The restaurant is beautiful first of all. I love the colors, the furniture and the ambience of the restaurant. The service was attentive and helpful. We had drinks and shared several items on the menu and we enjoyed everything immensely. We are going to return for the Mikey sampling.
