My friend quickly said okay not understanding what had just happened until it hit her that she had shushed her. We had reservations and were ready to drop a lot of money for drinks but we asked a server who that lady was and he explained that it was the owner so we got up and left! Many of us were Mexican, others American but we were not about to be support such a place and be treated like that. Super super rude! The servers were nice and respectful though. So- again- don't come here. We weren't even loud but apparently the owner wants a library type of place- lame.

Space to charge and grab refreshments, that's about it. First time experiencing a lounge before…read moregoing through security which didn't help to relieve any travel anxiety I had since I had no idea how long it would take to pass through security when I decided to brave it. Lounge was small but I guess appropriate for the size of the airport. Their check in process was wonky as their desks downstairs and the lounge entrance were unstaffed. Once checked in, was lucky and found seats together near an outlet but really it's a gamble out here. Table cleaning is slow and while there seems to be a menu that you can order from, service was almost nonexistent. The least attentive staff I've ever experienced in a lounge but like I said, I had access to chairs, charging, and a fully stocked fridge with waters, soda, beer, hard liquor, and coffee. WiFi sucked. You win some, you lose some.

We ordered the mescalines with guajillo-Tamarindo y maracuya. They were both delicious! The restaurant (and restrooms) were super clean.

We will definitely return on this trip!

We walked in about an hour before close, and the bar was as lively as ever. While downstairs had more of a lounge vibe, the rooftop bar was buzzing with locals and loud music. Overall a bit grubby, but nothing unexpected of a typical dive bar. Staff are a bit brusque but well-intentioned. PULQUE: I could only dream that this was more popular in the US. Sweet, almost fruity, and smooth. Almost like a light, pulpy, alcoholic orange juice. New to pulque, but this was a delicious and great start. Impressively vast selection of craft beers, wines, and liquor. You're bound to find something for everyone.

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!

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.
