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.

It was nice to have greens as Mexican food doesn't have much of them. The restaurant architecture is beautiful, with Ibiza vibes and they have performers performing live music some nights of the week. Overall I recommend Mystras to anyone who wants to have some light, healthy food!

This is not New York style pizza but a thin crispy crust that is very flavorful. They will make it with any combination of toppings and even 1/2 & 1/2. No gluten no problem. Vegan you got it.

Boulenc is a breakfast and cafe spot in the city center of Oaxaca. It's popular among tourists but…read morealso among locals as well. We went a little before open and there was already a small line forming. We ordered the ham and cheese croissant ($145 MXN) and the shakshuka ($135). The croissant was soft and I liked the cheesiness and creaminess. The shakshuka had a bit of spice and I liked dipping the bread into the sauce. The eggs were a little hard though and not runny at all. Both of these dishes were delicious and I still think about the shakshuka even today. For drinks we had the flat white ($58) and iced latte ($63) which were also good. We usually don't go to the same place more than once during our travels but this place was just so good we had to. This was my favorite brunch spot and I can see why it's such a popular spot.

We had the lasagna, marghaerita pizza, and a ham board with peppers and olives which I do not have any pictures of since we were so hungry. The lasagna was made differently it wasn't super heavy with tomato sauce and lots of cheese. The pizza was really good as well and it was made in like a coal oven which was even better. The inside is decorated super cute and it is enormous! We sat next to the oven where we could see right outside he window since the weather cools down so much at night. The prices are decent but compared to everything else a little more expensive but definitely worth it. The servers were nice as well and the place was super clean.

When my family suggested switching it up going Italian & pizza I was apprehensive. So we found El sol y la Luna and our server Jorge was so attentive and gave us great recommendations. We started with French fries that were homemade felt like home with 4 sauces. We tried two empanadas that Jorge recommended and they were full of flavor and must try cheesy fresh deliciousness. We order two pizza's pepperoni & bolognese with a lasagna for our family of 4. The cheese the sauce so light yet full of flavor we ate it all. My kids ordered the Nutella crepe for dessert and it was so authentic warm gooey Nutella goodness. Had a bottle of wine to pair with the meal it was perfect. Great food amazing service one of my favorite meals in Oaxaca. Thank you Jorge for a great dining experience.
