Food, service, prices, amazing place. I highly recommended if you want to pay low fee and enjoy the best typical food ever. Ask for Anel and Ever server

Food was so delicious! We were a group of 6, everyone loved their dish. The chilaquiles were nice and crunchy. The hot chocolate is 80% cocoa so delicious! The cafe de olla was good too and I don’t even like coffee.. definitely check this spot out. Our waitress was so sweet. She let us know that our food will be a bit because everything is made to order. Food did not disappoint. Also the place is so cute! Decorated beautifully!

Very interesting space. The atmosphere is nice and the food is incredible and the portions are plentiful. Had a mazapán pulque and it was very good. Prices are accesible for the area.

Super cute spot. Dropped in to dodge some rain and fell in love with the ambiance. If you're in the area, need to kill some time and want to experience a beautiful taste of Oaxaca I'd advise you drop in. Lovely photo spots if social media posts are your thing as well. Random Mention - They make their Margaritas with Mezcal from Oaxaca. Mezcal Margarita - just in case someone is searching for this in particular

Loved this place I love Oaxaca food so I had to get the mole and loved it. Our server went up and above for us and it was the best experience at least in CDMX for me.

The place is super original, lots of little corners to take pictures, very picturesque. It couldn't be more mexican. Food was good, We had starters of sopes, then sopa azteca and Enchiladas de mole, all were excellent on flavour and presentation. Service was good, my only reason for a 4 star rather than 5 is the bathrooms, the water on the tap was just a trickle of water, but even the bathrooms are really nice

fantastic food, mole negro was excquisite. a tad sweet which made it really tasty. the atmosphere was wonderful. do not let the outside fool you, insode it was like eating at my abuelita's house, a bunch of small enclaves with small tables. only downside was they had a dj playing house music and it was extremely loud and repetetive, did not match the ambience. other than that, you should go!!!!
