Four of us had dinner here tonight and we all loved our meals. Our waiter Armando was fabulous and tended to our every need even though he was swamped. Try the Sangre Luna cocktail. We will be back. read more

Tonight I had their vegetable soup and chicken in Veracruz sauce. The soup very good and the chicken in Veracruz sauce absolutely fantastic -- nuanced in flavor, well conceived and executed. The dessert of maracuya was OK. read more

Currently on my fourth trip to Oaxaca over two decades. On trip two or three, we discovered Casa Taviche, then brand new. I've been waiting to get back... and it's as delicious as ever. In a city jam-packed with great eats, this modest, lovely restaurant remains my go-to. Tranquil, tasteful atmosphere, stunning food, warm service (¡gracias, Olga!). The three-course lunch menu is a great deal and ridiculously delicious. read more

Super cute inside with an open roof seating area. The entrance is a bit tucked inside a building so it's not very obvious of its location. Loved the hand written menus which they tell me they update often. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Prices are great! Best Tlayudas I've had in town so far. Got it with sausage and the plate is very large and will be filling for someone very hungry or great to split and save room for dessert which is what I did! Dessert was wonderful read more

We enjoyed a wonderful meal this evening, visiting here from California. We ordered lovely salad and chia crusted tuna that was delicious. We also ordered the stone seafood soup that is cooked at the table when an extremely hot stone is put in the bowl. The soup was outstanding!!! The service was right on! Prompt and attentive. We would highly recommend this restaurant! read more

We had heard really good reviews of this place and don't worry, this is a good review overall! To get the bad out of the way: the cocktails were a little off. Just weird combinations that weren't exactly refreshing, just really sweet. I recommend just getting a mexican beer for your meal instead. Onto the good: the food! This was a high class experience. The plating was stunning. We had pork lion with creamy rice and portobello mushroom steak. Both meals were absolutely delicious. I loved the atmosphere as well. The decor was adorable and simple. It also seems like a small family runs and owns this business. So please support them by visiting! read more

Oct 12, 2022. Delicioso, mucho gusto. (get the idea). Best ribs ever, best tortilla chips, baked not fried. Started with a perfectly presented salad with a savory oil dressing. I Had pork ribs with a red mole and rice. Heaven. My wife had portobello mushroom with negro (?) mole. Loved it. Two cold Victoria (?) beers and soda water. About $35 (probably a $$ restaurant) and well worth the money. Very pleasant waiter, non English speaking but helpful all the same. Calm decor and very pleasant on what was a very warm, sunny day. We'll go back in a couple of days. read more

Loved Casa Taviche, mostly because the interior is gorgeous with amazing art and the folks who work here are incredibly kind. This is the kind of restaurant in Oaxaca where you'll hear folks speak English. You'll also have a mix of folks traveling through Oaxaca - both those who stay in hotels and the ones in hostels. So you know it's a place where you can find food for a variety of budgets and some cheap drink options. I dined alone and had the chicken with mushrooms and Victoria beer (my #Oaxaca2018 beer of choice) and was completely satisfied. Casa Taviche was friendly for the solo traveler, such as myself, and small groups. If you're coming to Oaxaca, I would definitely recommend stopping in here. You won't regret it. read more

Absolutely delicious! I went twice in one week because there were so many things I wanted to try. I ordered the tuna plate again because it was so fabulous with very generous amounts of tuna. We shared an order of portobello with mole negro and all agreed that it was the best mole Negro, we had had in two weeks! read more

It's not a real ceviche, i don't recommend it, I'm expected to much flavor, and was a deception.

La comida y Presentación es de lo mejor, el v CV lugar es pequeño pero muy fresco y acogedor Muy recomendable read more

We thoroughly enjoyed all of our food and the excellent service. two of us had been a bit under the weather so chose the amazingly flavored tortilla soup with a side of mashed potatoes. Both were the best ever. We would go back in a minute. The soup may not look special but the complex flavors were very interesting and not spicy. read more

Tacos were great. But the table was badly placed in corner near bathrooms. Tuna was good.

Small informal restaurant with a diverse menu. The grilled chicken en mole negro is to die for, flavors were rich and deep. It was served with a medley of fresh vegetables as was the tasty lomo de cerdo. Everything is beautifully prepared and presented including the salad. read more

First off, yelp is wrong this place stays open until 10pm. "Amor por la comida" is displayed in their quaint, space which feels like a home. Also, you can taste the love that's been put into the food. Everything we ordered was perfectly seasoned, plated beautifully and we can't wait to return. Their menu changes daily, so you're sure to get fresh ingredients. read more

My boyfriend and I had a very okay lunch at Casa Taviche yesterday. The restaurant is beautiful. We were handed a small menu, along with a set menu available for 100 pesos. We both decided to try that out. While we waited, we were presented with chips and a very tasty salsa. Soon the soup was brought out and it was beautiful, but bland. I added copious amounts of salsa, which improved it somewhat. Next was pork in green salsa and a salad. I loved the salad and the salsa verde, but the pork was very, very tough. For dessert we got apple cobbler which was good, but not particularly memorable. This meal was a good deal for 100 pesos, and if we were in Oaxaca for longer I'd definitely come back to Casa Taviche to give it another chance. read more

Amazingly delicious, fresh food and fantastic service. Possibly the best mescal cocktail we've ever had (made with jicama). We enjoyed the el fresco dining in a courtyard like setting. Highly recommend. read more

We love this place when trying to break-up some of the monotony of the delicious (but typically heavier) oaxacan options. This place is great to get a beautiful salad or entree. They have a agua of day that's always tasty (it was oatmeal today, sounds strange but was great). Super cute and very friendly staff. read more

Someone else said it best when they declared "run, don't walk to Casa Taviche!" - it's that good! The service is phenomenal and personal, the selections are diverse but not plentiful (perfect for indecisive folks like me! large menus are overwhelming... not the case here), and the drinks are mixed well and very affordable. I cannot WAIT to come back to Oaxava and dine here again in the future. read more

Wonderful authentic restaurant, our waiter Armando was extremely helpful. He gave us some great recommendations for not only things to do in Oaxaca but around Oaxaca as well. read more

Truly delicious food. We went here twice during our stay in Oaxaca. The service is wonderful, the restaurant is simple and stylish and the food is regional, fresh and creative. The seafood pasta and mole dishes are not to be missed! Run, don't walk to this charming spot. read more

What a delightful meal: food and service. Casual, not overpriced and yet incredibly flavorful. This was one of the most pleasing restaurant experiences I've had in years. read more

Fancy, delicious food at an inexpensive price. We were pleasantly surprised as we hadn't seen this place written up anywhere.

Small intimate restaurant with beautiful casual feel. Upscale food was surprising! Great selection of Mezcal and delicious cocktails. This chef is definitely heading for greatness. We will definitely be back. read more

Inexpensive and delicious brunch. I had banana pancakes with berries and bacon. I was impressed with how tasty the food was for such a simple-looking place. Cute, very casual setting. Reading other reviews, I wish I had gone back for dinner. read more

Excellent. The food was very good. The pork molé was so tasty. The pork was cooked medium so it was tender as it could be. The drinks were great and we enjoyed the live music and atmosphere. read more

Another great little find Once again from my amigas in Mitla. Good prices food and service. Indoor dining but with an opened up outdoor feel. I find it pretty safe and comfortable. Easy choice for food and service well exceeding the Cost. read more

Great service, cute place, fair drinks but the food was super super bland and boring. We were disappointed because we'd read such great things in a NYT review. There are much better places nearby. read more

Great decor and vibe with a lovely, albeit small, menu to match. We had heard there was a 3 course set menu but it wasnt on offer when we visited. Nonetheless, everyone in our party of 8, including my 2 year old daughter, loved every bite. So glad we went, and would for sure recommend. read more

We have been to this place two times for lunch in the past 4 days. It is amazing. She had a different menu everyday and everything is prepared perfectly. It's a small place but we have had no trouble getting a table either time. She has a sink right by the door so you can wash your hands when you walk in. I got the pasta both times and they were prepared to perfection. My boyfriend got the pounded chicken and the chicken stuffed poblano. Both were amazing. She had a quesadilla one day for a started and it was great. She used the Oaxaca cheese that is just perfect. We also tried the mango mousse and it was fresh and topped with berries. It is located a couple blocks from the Zocalo and very easy to walk to. I would recommend anything on the menu, you really cannot go wrong. She also sells a couple of things up front, a souvenir mug, worm salt, and chocolate. There is a restroom located right in the front by the step, if you are tall, just duck a little. The whole place was very clean and relaxing. read more

I tried a few chiles in nogada during my visit to Mexico and the one here was my favorite! Must try!

This is my favorite restaurant in the world. It was months ago that I went here. I just wanted to look over the Yelp reviews and drool over the pictures because I missed this place. read more

What a great way to end our trip in Oaxaca!! We had so much great food in Oaxaca, but this meal was easily the best and most memorable. The menu is small and changes every day, and just based on the dishes we had, I'm sure everything the chef makes is fantastic. The flavors and presentation are fine dining, but the price is ridiculously cheap by western standards. Honestly, we were just blown away. Kudos to the amazingly talented chef!! read more

Really sweet place with SUCH AFFORDABLE, delicious food. Love the handwritten menus. The love for cooking and pride in food can be tasted. Beautiful space and nice service. And, because the menu changes every day, you can go there more than once on your trip! Highly recommend. read more

One of my favourite restaurant in Oaxaca. Upon entrance, you are greeted with chips and some of the best salsa in Oaxaca. Lovely staff who are extremely kind. Vegetarian options are definitely limited here in Oaxaca, but they have excellent options here. The menu changes daily, so you could try a new thing everyday. It was so good, that I came three days in a row! The tamal con frijoles fritos was my favourite. read more

The food and service were excellent. One of the better meals for much less money. Food presentation was very interesting. I will go back!

Probably one of the best deals in the city. Everything is priced well, and the menu changes daily.

Yummmers! Food was great tasting, fresh and beautiful! Casual-looking place with plates that outperform the unassuming entrance. read more
