This is the place for a delicious tapas/meal (the owner know everything about tapas because he is…read moreoriginally from Barcelona) with a great wine, mezcal and/or beer. It is a tiny bar/restaurant just outside of the "real" downtown area with most of the restaurants and bars. There are about 6 tables but normally there is space for a small group, you can also reserve a table if you have a bigger group. I really like the simple design and the layout. It is a great place to go with some friends to have a snack and some wine/mezcal/beer. They have a great selection of wines of all of the world. I am more a beer and mezcal drinker so I love the artisan beers of Tierra Blanca and the house mezcal (only 20 pesos!!). The best thing about this place is that when you order a glass of wine or a beer you get a small tapas (montadito) with it. There are four different ones for every glass you have, this changes regularly with some variations. Of course you can order extra tapas, I really really love the Jamon Serano! Delicious and not expensive at all. They also have a menu of the day, my favourite is Friday lasagna day! D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!! Other favourites of mine that are on the menu are the cheese pasta, the prawn pasta and the croquettes with different fillings, also typical Oaxaqueñan ones such as Mole Negro! They also have a lot of choices for vegetarians. The prices here are so cheap! Just amazing what you have to pay after a whole night of drinking and eating! This is a must go if you are in Oaxaca! Because it closes at 12 you can continue the party, with a full stomach, in some other bar.

Wonderful quaint little residential restaurant on a quieter street in El Centro. We shared a ham…read moreand cheese bruschetta, chorizo and mushroom pizza and a memorable creamy spaghetti carbonara which I would recommend to anyone. The three dishes with a gratis amuse were plenty for me and my wife and we walked out with leftovers. We paired our meal with a few glasses of affordable wine and left sated and happy. We will return.

We visited this restaurant last month in February during a birthday trip, it was a Saturday evening…read moreafter returning from Monte Alban. We were very hungry and it was very hot as it was 88 degrees in Oaxaca. We decided to start with a few drinks. The drinks were ok, a bit sweet and did not taste like mezcal at all or like they had any alcohol. I was very disappointed. We also had a tlayuda which was a decent portion and filling but it was way overpriced. They charge $260 pesos where in other places they charged around $170 for the exact same portion. The only good thing about this restaurant is the view of the Templo de Santo Domingo from the rooftop which was gorgeous. Our servers were also attentive.

This was our first dinner spot in Oaxaca and it started the trip off well…read more We came here after a crazy rain storm with hail. The cocktails were bomb and the rooftop has an amazing view of Santo Domingo. I would definitely recommend.
