" This restaurant is incredible! I can't recommend it enough. The food has so much flavor and the menu is filled with authentic options. I love that they serve traditional Oaxacan delicacies like tlayudas and mole. Dining here felt like a trip back to Oaxaca, capturing the culture and tastes perfectly. The service was attentive and super friendly. Can't wait to bring more friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't praise this place enough! The food was fantastic, especially the tlayuda with tasajo. Perfectly cooked, it was crispy yet soft. The ambiance was vibrant, filled with laughter and music. We had a slight hiccup with our drink orders, but the staff handled it gracefully. Great value for money, and the portion sizes were generous. My friends and I definitely left satisfied and will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" An authentic taste of Oaxaca! The food is genuinely flavorful, from the tamales to the tlayudas. The service is prompt, and the staff is attentive. The only downside is the overall noise level; it can get quite lively in during peak hours. However, the experience was enjoyable, and I will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was underwhelmed during my last visit. The food lacked the authenticity I was hoping for, especially the cochinita pibil, which didn’t hit the right notes for me. On the brighter side, the service was friendly and attentive. I might give it a go again but with lower expectations this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food here! The tlayuda mixta was impressive, a perfect blend of flavors and textures. It felt authentic and fulfilling. Service was absolutely delightful; the team was cheerful and genuinely cared about our experience. I do think it could use a few more vegetarian options, but overall it was an enjoyable outing, and I’ll be recommending it to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Truly delightful! The food brought me right back to Oaxaca with its authenticity. Everything from the tlayuda to the mole had great depth of flavor. The service was warm, but just a touch slow during peak dinner. That said, the experience was wonderful overall. It’s a great spot for some delicious and authentic food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious tacos al pastor and the service was fantastic! It was busy when we arrived but the staff handled everything efficiently. The ambiance was vibrant, but it got a little noisy as the night went on. I loved the food, especially the salsa and grilled meat flavors. Can't wait to return to enjoy more dishes!
