    As always, the food was incredible (Chiles en Nogada), the staff super friendly and knowledgeable about Mexican cuisine, and the Mezcal options were unparalleled. My hats off to this team.

    Great food, great attention all around, but waiter just a bit pushy (trouble accepting no as an answer.) But still can’t wait to go back.

    Wonderful culinary trip to Oaxaca for a special occasion. The cocktails were inventive, strong and tasty. The food was all wonderful. The octopus and potato appetizer was amazing, as was the pork shank main. The guacamole was super fresh and delicious. The enmoladas blancas were a great vegetarian option. Really happy to have enjoyed a vegetarian dish made with thought and care. The desserts were also really tasty. Tried a special gordita stuffed with pecan and dulce de leche that was great. Also had a sweet potato & pumpkin mousse/cream that was excellent and oh so light. Can't wait to return.
