It is quite cozy inside with dim lighting to make it more ambient. When it was time to order the waitress came and was really friendly to all of the members from our large group. I was quite hungry so I ordered an aqua Fresca, a tostada, and a torta. I ordered an Agua Fresca de Pepino con Limon and it was so refreshing and delicious. However, I did order it without ice since I find that drinks are usually already cold as is and don't need ice, this was a mistake. The flavor was spot on, however it was room temperature, which could have been avoided if I did add ice. The torta that I ordered was of chorizo. There were plenty of toppings and the bread was really nice and fluffy. The chorizo was was actually very oily which did take away from the flavor and made the inside quite mushy and soggy. If you do order a torta, I would suggest getting a different protein than chorizo. I also ordered a tostada de pulpo. I was very thrown off as the seafood and the octopus in it were slightly warm. To my understanding, seafood should be refrigerated and kept cool so it does not go bad so I was slightly concerned as it felt like it had been sitting outside for a while. The flavor was not great either, quite bland like there were no seasonings or preparation from the octopus or the rest of the toppings.

I would say 3.5 stars, and part of my rating being low is that we arrived here late, close to close, so many choices were not available. But there was a great variety of soups, moles and a steak/quesadillas station. I see a few "tourist trap" reviews, but I have to disagree. Many of these restaurants have arrangements with tours and it is part of the package. Everything was hot and the selection was huge. I imagine arriving earlier than when we did (close to closing) would have resulted in a better experience and review. Oh - almost forgot how affordable the food is. I recommend it.

Note: make sure you place a reservation ahead of time. We didn't but we decided to wait (the estimated wait time was 25 minutes, but we were seated within 5-10 mins). We ordered the cocktails (tasted good - the mezcal mule could have been stronger but the mezcal old fashioned was strong). Food tasted great! I loved being able to watch the kitchen work and send out food. It felt like one of those high end restaurants. There is an english and spanish menu. Staff was attentive and made sure we were good with our orders. You can also pay by credit card. The restrooms are by the kitchen.

Most memorable for me was the soup -- don't remember the name but the broth was delicious and has a piece of corn on the cob in it.

A light Mexican breakfast - see: sweet bread and coffee - is offered daily for the morning risers. Location is a solid 10-15 minutes walk (somewhat uphill on the return trip) from the bustling tourist zone of Oaxaca - but that means its nice and quiet. A room for 2 will run you ~$33 USD per night. The bed (as is in nearly all of Mexico's hotels) firm. No TV nor air-conditioner in the room - but the truth is you don't need either - the city of Oaxaca beckons! Would definitely stay here again!
