    Not what expected Food wise :( The level was too low and basic for the price. Octopus starter didnt taste good at all. Main course coliflower and pork lacks of taste :( Would not recommend neither go here again. Im a foodie and eat alot at good restaurants, and this wasnt one of them. Bottle of sparkling water 150 pesos?!?!? WTF.

    Competing loud music from this restaurant and its neighbour. Great views, reasonably good service. Food tasty. But quantities are extremely small relative to the price. And this is the first restaurant in Oaxaca that I have encountered that insisted on selling me a tiny bottle of water for 65 pesos. Not likely to return.

    El restaurante muy bien como siempre, el lugar es increíble, ubicación, instalación, etc, la comida si algunos platillos no fueron lo excepcional de siempre, la sopa de fideos me la trajeron como ultimo plato, pero si voy regresar, en cada viaje a Oaxaca siempre los visito y esta ha sido la unica ocasión que les faltó

    We were delighted by the construction inside, the terrace and the ambience. The service was quick and professional. The food was ambivalent, excellent Grandma's noodle soup, strange the beef (only served with souce and bread). In the end somewhat overprized. It was, anyway, I good experience.

    Comida deliciosa y con una vista privilegiada al templo de Santo Domingo y la ciudad. El único detalle estuvo en los cocteles que ordenamos, ninguno de los dos nos gusto y optamos por cambiar a cerveza y agua. A pesar de eso, la experiencia con la comida fue de las mejores que he tenido en mucho tiempo, la comida vale 100% la pena y compensa cualquier detalle.

    Extremely poor service! We informed our waiter that we were vegetarians and ordered 3 plates that were not or favorites so we ask the staff for some help with simple options to be prepared … any vegetables! beans and cheese tostadas, anything. They said that was not posible and they could not help to prepare anything out from the menu … I mean beans with fresh cheese and avocado wasn’t a complicated request! We went to another restaurant and had a nice meal. Nice view from the upstairs terrace and mezcal cocktails were good tho.

    Fue una experiencia increíble! No teníamos mucha hambre así que solo pedimos dos platos entre mi pareja y yo, pero ojalá haber tenido más hambre porque estaban exquisitos! Además el personal es encantador y el restaurante precioso. Se ha convertido sin duda en nuestro restaurante favorito de Oaxaca, volveremos a probar más platos!!

    El lugar es muy bonito , la terraza está espectacular con vista a la iglesia de Santo Domingo. La comida viene en porciones pequeñas y los platillos son caros a mi gusto. El servicio me parecí o un poco lento aunque los meseros fueron amables. La verdad vale más l Pena el lugar y la ubicación que la comida . El tiradero de pulpo parece queso de puerco, no agradable a la vista y un sabor muy x. Los tacos de Lechon confitados excelentes aunque caros para lo que son. El ceviche excelente. El chuletón X. El agua de horchata muy x también. Los tacos de cadera más bien malones al igual que la papada.
