    I arrived and was told that this was a temporary new location. I was expecting the original location, but was not told the place moved. The food was not good. The service was very poor and overall experience very disappointing. This used to be my favorite restaurant in Oaxaca that is no longer and I will not return or refer anyone anymore.

    The ambiance and hospitality of this restaurant matches its delicious food. It is a beautiful setting outside among old growth trees. We were greeted and served by the most friendly and gracious waiter. Food was exceptional and creative. I would visit again without hesitation.

    Great place, on a slow night, my wife and daughter and I made reservations to enjoy a meal at this very well reviewed restaurant. We actually had the whole place to ourselves! It was great though, food was delicious. Stand out dishes were the fish ceviche and the duck enchiladas. Must try!

    This used to be one of the best restaurants in Oaxaca. I don’t know what happened but it went down. They didn’t have a tasting menu, no wine menu or selection. Staff is under prepared, I am not sure if I will be back. Completely disappointed…
