My partner and I came here for a date night on a Wednesday and it was packed! And for good reason. I highly recommend making a reservation, even if it's just a party of two. The ambiance and decor were so sexy and colorful and transported us to an upscale restaurant in Oaxaca. We had the hibiscus refresher, the Vida Eterna, and the Casi Cielo, which were all delicious and unique. For appetizers we got the tuna tostadas and the empanadas. The ingredients of the tostadas tasted so fresh! I'm not huge on empanadas in general but the beef in these was cooked nice and tender. Maybe could have used more sauce on the side though. The entrees were the lobster/watermelon salad and the Tetela con puerco en mole. The salad was refreshing but maybe could have used a little more citrusy flavor in the dressing, but I get that they didn't want to overpower the watermelon taste. The tetela though, I would have ordered three times over. It was 5/5. For desert we got the tres leches and I got a Mexican hot chocolate. If you like the tres leches moist but not drenched in the milk, then you will love this as we did. It had a passionfruit cream over it, which added a tart twist! Will definitely be back. read more

Go to take pictures, not to eat. Chose this place for its advertised "authentic Oaxacan" food. False advertising. Don't send me a taste of Mexico that includes panna cotta, don't serve me queso fundido that looks like a football party appetizer, and don't bring me fish with canned tomatoes in the garnish. I am so disappointed that I wasted one of my dinners here. Only bright spot was chef knows how to properly cook fish. Research and adhere to Oaxacan flavors or change the way you advertise. Maybe the locals like this but it doesn't pass. read more

If I could give it 0 stars, I WOULD! Hah, nah. But seriously. Probably though. Idk. It was 6ish. They were booked the entire night for tables for 6. They close at 11. Host was wearing a Rolex. It's that kinda place. Best Mexican I've ever had was at a taco stand in McAllen, TX. Then... there's that Velvet Taco place down the street. read more

The ambiance in this restaurant is so uniquely curated that it feels like you're not in Atlanta! My boyfriend and I sat in cave-like booth that was super intimate and perfect for date night. Our waitress was wonderful and made our first time visit so memorable. They offer a huge selection of tequilas and she recommended one that was probably some of the best tequila I've ever tasted. We weren't super hungry since we left from another event so we shared the queso fundido dip, corn ribs, and the quesadillas. The food was decent enough but I wish we would have tried more Oaxacan dishes which is their main specialty. To finish off the night, they brought us these postcards that we could write and send to friends/family and they would mail them out for us. I thought that was a super unique way to send off guests and also a great marketing approach. read more

I made reservations to celebrate a girlfriend's bday on a Friday night. The place doesn't have parking attached so you'll have to do some walking from/to restaurant. I didn't expect it to be as tiny as it it inside the "waiting" area, there's no seats or anything which i get but was a bit awkward just standing in the way. Sitting area is super chill, aesthetically pleasing, clean and amazing lighting. Loved it honestly but it's mostly a 1-1 date kinda spot. Now to the food, we ordered a couple plates/appetizers to share. * probadita (cheese dip, honey sunflower seeds & esquite & chips) 6/10 [complimentary to us] * aguachile de camaron (HUGE fan but i was disappointed. No flavor at all 4/10) * pulpo en poblano asado (decently ok but not the best 5/10) * elote asado (flavor wise 9/10 but it was hard to eat bc you cannot use utensils but i get down lol, still good) * ensalada de pollo asado (very decent. Dressing was good 8/10) * guajillo braised short rib (yummmm. The pure was blended esquite (corn) sooooo good 8/10) * sorbet plate (flavors were good. 8/10) - DRINKS (allll were very yum 9/10) **** SERVICE? Amazing, Abigail was very informative, professional and very attentive. 10/10 **** read more

I have to say, I was unfortunately a little disappointed with Cuevacia. After trying to get 2 bar spots every Friday for MONTHS (I wish this was an exaggeration), we finally got a spot last Friday. First off, the building itself is beautiful. The outside is so cool and the inside is equally gorgeous. Second, the staff and mixologists are absolutely wonderful and so friendly. It's hard to find a bar with good sherry, and the manager helped us find a bottle to try. They also brought out a little amuse bouche of queso, seed bars, and elote. Such a cute idea! The drinks were phenomenal, we tried the Esperanza and the Vida Eterna. No notes, they were delicious. I will definitely be returning for the cocktails. We weren't very hungry, so we only tried the Short Rib Empanadas. They were okay. I truly wish I had a better adjective. The amount of short rib was so small, it was mostly corn shell. The sauce that comes at the bottom is delicious, but it doesn't make up for the lack of short rib. For $14 for 2 empanadas, they need to be exceptional. I had to dip my empanada in the leftover queso from the amuse bouche to make it taste better. I truly don't think I would order an entree from here. $20+ for 3 tacos is a little excessive. I was also checking out some of the entrees near us, and the enchiladas just looked so dry. I just feel that for the prices they are charging, there needs to be more sauce or flavor or something. read more

This place is located in colony square. Parking is validated up to 2 hrs visiting this place. The ambiance was gorgeous. It's a real intimate like setting inside. The bar seems like a chill spot to grab drinks and something quick to eat before heading out for the night. The service was great. They recommended a few things. I loved the elote asado, it was made well. I enjoyed the chicken tacos too. The flavors were good, it was well seasoned. I tried the paraíso drink, tequila based and it was pretty good as well. I def recommend for a date night or a stop at the bar for a drink. Reservations highly recommended. read more

My girlfriend and I met up for a much-needed girls' night, and the ambiance at Cuevacia is undeniably sexy, sophisticated, and perfect for catching up over cocktails. The only downside? The restaurant doesn't have its own restrooms, so guests have to leave the restaurant and use the Colony Square restrooms, which takes away a bit from the overall experience. For drinks, I ordered the Paraíso (Reposado Tequila, Blood Orange, Sugar Beets, Ginger, Tarragon, and Lime), which was refreshing and well-balanced. My friend had the Adoración (Uruapan Añejo Rum, Tamarind Cordial, Aguardiente, Coconut, and Pineapple), and she thoroughly enjoyed it. We started with the Elote Asado, featuring charred corn, lime, cotija, chile powder, and crema. It was flavorful and a great way to start the meal. We also shared the Short Rib Empanadas, filled with guajillo-braised beef short rib, Chihuahua cheese, chipotles, and mole verde. These were absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. For my entrée, I ordered the Tacos de Pescado with mahi mahi, fried in a light masa tempura batter and topped with poblano crema, grapefruit, cabbage slaw, and salsa verde. Served with rice and beans, this dish was a standout--fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. My friend ordered the Pescado con Pistachios, which featured trout with an adobo rub and pistachio pepita crust. The fish itself was very good, but there were a lot of pistachios, which slightly overpowered the dish. For dessert, we shared two options. The Chocolate Tres Leches Cake was fantastic. Even as someone who isn't typically a tres leches fan, I found it rich, moist, and absolutely delicious. Unfortunately, the Churros de Lujo were disappointing. They didn't taste fresh and would have been much better served hot with a scoop of ice cream. The mango and dulce de leche sauces were presented as tiny dots on the plate--far too little to actually enjoy or taste. This is one dessert I would skip on a future visit. Overall, Cuevacia delivers on atmosphere, cocktails, and most of the food. I'd definitely return for drinks, appetizers, and the fish tacos, but I'd pass on the churros next time. read more

When a new restaurant of this caliber opens in Atlanta, the eternal buzz begins envelop both the physical establishment as well as all the social presence. Reservations are impossible to get, influencers are all there for a complimentary meal and it seems like a legendary concert came to town with the amount of excitement in the air. Cuevacia, is currently in this stage in early 2026 and a few months from now, the buzz will die down. The question then will remain: can Cuevacia deliver? That is to be determined, but we can certainly reflect on the initial impressions today. The Oaxacan kitchen is one of the most underrepresented in the US, despite being acclaimed as the top food destination in Mexico. Known for its famous mole as well as being the top mezcal producer in the country, it's a Mecca of traditional culture. Cuevacia delivers on mezcal, with an extremely substantive list and upmost quality selections. The service is great despite struggling within the influx of influencers at the time of the visit. The mole with slow roasted meats is a great combo as well. One more thing...the design. Cuevacia is unquestionably one of the most beautiful restaurants in Atlanta. The team did a truly remarkable job with the stone enclosed booths, creating an ambiance that genuinely transforms guests from a metropolis to a small Oaxacan village. Cuevacia is unquestionably worth a visit. read more

A new gem has entered the Atlanta scene! I got the pleasure of checking out Cuevacia this past weekend. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The restaurant is simply beautiful with the first floor having tables that look like small caves and the 2nd floor having seating that transports you to an hacienda balcony. The decor is authentically Mexican. To say this restaurant is gorgeous is an understatement. You start off being greeted by your server that presents you with a small tasting dish that the chef has curated for you to open up your palate. Not only that the servers are also bilingual, in case you want to practice your Spanish skills! The food focuses on the states of Central Mexico. This is not your typical Tex Mex food, it's authentic southern Mexican food. We ordered a plethora of dishes with the banana leaf tamales & quesadilla grande being our favorite. The plates are a masterpiece, imaginatively stimulating your eyes. Needless to say that flavors don't fall short. We were too full to order dessert but plan on coming back to explore the Mexican Hot Chocolate and churros. There is Valet Parking available or you can also self park. They do 2 hours of validated self-parking in the Colony Square parking deck. I immensely recommend this restaurant for a food adventure or a cozy date night! I will be back to enjoy more of their delectable cuisine. Cuevacia has unquestionably earned a 5 star review. read more

!! Make a reservation !! it will be worth it. It felt like an experience with the server (Loved Alejandra) explaining the dishes and the restaurant. The manager came over and checked with us throughout the meal. All our meals were flavorful - i particularly liked their green lime sauce. There were two labeled vegetarian options but sounded like they could tweak another to work! And they give you a postcard to write to someone at the end of the meal and they will mail it!! read more

Mildly obsessed with the decor here, especially if you can snag a booth. The whole place is absolutely stunning (and perf for a date lols). Espresso martini was nice but thought it could've used a little more tequila (or a lot, either way). Food was nice - would recommend the tamale Oaxaqueño if you're craving mole. Def wanna come back to try some of the din options too. read more

Stopped in for a quick girls lunch. I advise setting a ressy for a Saturday. The inside is gorgeous and the service is wonderful- better than i have witnessed in Atl for some time now. My non alcoholic drink was the Hibiscus aguas frescas - absolutely amazing, and the girls' alcoholic beverages were all crafted beautifully and with great flavor. For lunch: - Guacamole: 10/10. great flavor, seasoned, and with hint of sweeteness with diced mangoes. - the Chorizo sandwich was okay. It had more bread and sauce than seasoned chorizo. I wanted the Tamale but they ran out early so that may be worth trying. Definitely a spot to visit for the drinks and ambiance but the establishment should improve on the food if they want to stand out. read more

I have to admit I was super pumped about this place opening because colony square could always use a good restaurant and I wanted to love it!!! But I couldn't. I will give them this. Cuevacia has the vibes and a great staff. Super friendly and made sure we had what we needed and their booths are these little tables in alcoves which make it feel super private. So great vibe. But.. I will give them this also I loved my cocktail. I got the blood orange mezcal one and it was divine. The rest of our apps.... Okay. The guac was fine but their version of ceviche was disappointing. This will be the main theme of the review but I've had better and paid less. For our mains, we shared the braised beef, the trout, elote and corn soup. I wish the elote came off the cob so it was easier to share but we loved the soup. The beef and the trout were good... but like I said I've paid less and gotten better. I wish for the price point the food experience was more unique but I would go back for drinks and apps. read more

Food, atmosphere, drinks, all amazing. I went with a group of five so we tried a lot! Mocktails and cocktails are all mixed to perfection and fresh! Highly recommend the quac as an app and the French toast. The French toast was a delicious pastry that didn't even need the syrup to make it tastes great. The chicken tinga tacos were super flavorful as well as the verde burrito. They were out of the birria which was disappointing because I'm sure it would've been amazing! read more

Came for Saturday brunch with a girlfriend. We did not have reservations but we were seated immediately upon arrival. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful! You feel like you're in another country. The decor and music really make the atmosphere pop. Our server was so sweet and gave us recommendations. We started with the chorizo queso and empanadas. Both were delicious! You have to get them.

Authentic Oaxacan flavors are having a moment, and Cuevacia at Colony Square delivers on every front. From bold, soulful flavors to a fabulous vibe, the space is stunning--warm, moody lighting paired with cave-like booths that feel almost like elevated private dining. The cocktails were exceptional, the sauces were pure flavor bombs, and the quesadilla was perfectly portioned. I do wish there were a few more vegetarian-friendly options, but overall, this is a spot I'd absolutely recommend for a refined, elevated dining experience. read more

Had the BEST experience at Cuevacia. The food was absolutely delicious. Think authentic Mexican cuisine with an upscale feel. Their menu has a ton of options (huge plus for me) so there is certainly something for everyone. I love mole, and got their pork mole dish which was super tender with mole negro and in-house made tortillas. The drinks we got were certainly on the sweeter side for my preference, but I'd definitely go back to explore other drink options in the future. Their guac was really good and had mango which was different. My friend also got the birria tacos and said it was the best birria she's ever had. The service was likewise amazing -- our waitress gave us plenty of recommendations and came to check in on us often. I'd recommend giving Cuevacia a try. read more

Lunch at Cuevacia felt like stepping out of Atlanta for a couple of hours. From the cocktails and aguachile de camarón to lunch inside one of their private caves, every part of the experience felt intentional, relaxed, and beautifully done. The pescado asado, enchiladas verdes, rounds of cocktails, cava, and tres leches made this one of those meals you end up talking about long after it's over. Cuevacia is easily one of the most beautiful restaurants I've visited in the city and absolutely worth adding to your list. read more

An amazing addition to casual-fine Mexican in dt/midtown Atlanta. Highly anticipated when I saw the ad last year. Unfortunately it was super popular since its opening, so I only tried it twice; one dinner and one lunch. For food, I have tried the following: 1. Puerco de Res: braised pork shoulder with sweet-savory mole (Apricot-Guajillo), served with grilled plantains,roasted onions and tortillas.The pork was fork-tender, the fresh tortillas were delicious. However, the dish almost only had sweetness. It would be better if there could be a spcity/savory/sour twist, such as some grilled nopales, hot peppers, or pickled veggie. 2. Tetela con Puerco en Mole: a ~4inch lengh triangular masa tortilla stuffed with corns, black beans, msuhrooms, cheese, placed atop Coloradito Mole and pulled pork, and topped with more cheese. The mole was refreshing and slightly sour. The ingredients in the masa tortilla paired well with each other. However, I did not find poblano peppers as listed on the menu. 3. Arroz verde: "green" Mexican rice. Cooked with herbs. Compared to El Valle's version, this one is drier. I think this one is better. 4. Verdura Asada: a small portion of charred seasonal vegetables. I got roasted squah, pumpkins and mushrooms. Great as a side. 5. Complimentary platter: Only served at dinner. There were Oaxaca cheese with salsa matcha, elote, roasted pepitas, tortilla chips. A combination of savory and sweet stuff. Good as app. 6. Birria de Chivo: braised beef and goat tacos. My friend had this as entree and she liked it. The consomme for dipping was rich and not spicy. However, the first time she got this dish, there was hair in the taco... For service, the staff were customer-oriented and have a good knowledge about the dishes. When my friend noticed the hair in her taco, our server responded quickly, then the kitchen staff, the manager all apologized for the mistake, and I heard them discussing possible ways to avoid this. They also took off EVRYTHING from our bill (though this made me a bit uncomfortable because they didn't do anything wrong with my dish) I will try more dishes and update my review. Hopefully they will have some seasonal surprises in the future! read more

Cuevacia was on my list for a date night with my wife when I saw it on Instagram. They are located in colony square. Colony square has valet parking which was $35. Yikes! We had a reservation and were seated promptly. Our waitress was really good and attentive until she got more tables and became less attentive. The restaurant is really nice on the inside! We received complimentary appetizers which were good. We both ordered non alcoholic margaritas which were really good as well! We ordered corn as an appetizers and it was really good. My main course was really good as well as the desert we ordered. We really enjoyed our dinning experience. We will definitely be back and tell our network to check it out. read more

Heads up, the main dining area for this restaurant is up stairs. If you are unable to climb stairs, you will need to be seated in the lower level. We arrived on time for our 7:30 reservation. One of our guests is in a wheelchair. We were told that we'd have to wait for a table on the lower level. It took 30 minutes to be seated. The manager Eric did bring over some sparkling wine and allowed us to sit at a lounge table during the wait. When we were seated, the table was very unique and in a cave-like space. The server did a great job, but she was not knowledgeable about liquor or bar service in general. The menu was adequate offering a few classic Oaxacan staple items (enchiladas, tacos etc.) with a couple of vegetarian and/or vegan options. The food and drinks were pretty good, but not spectacular. The wine selection was rather limited, but there were drinkable options. About half way through the meal Carlos (another manager) came to check on the table. He reminded us how lucky we were "to get into a cave table, that the reservations for those table are often 3-4 weeks." This is when we reminded him that we made a reservation 3-4 weeks ago for which we were made to wait 30 minutes upon arrival because we could not sit upstairs. We did not have a preference for sitting in any location, we were forced to sit in the lower level because the space does not accommodate those with disabilities. Carlos also let know that he comped our appetizers when he delivered the check, which Eric previously told us. This experience is a great example of one manager going the extra mile for service recovery and another manager erasing it in one conversation. read more

I loved this place. The ambience is incredibly unique and romantic and cozy. You eat in booths inside little caves. The food was also terrific. Get something that involves tortilla chips because they make them homemade and they are crunchy delicious. We had the queso fundido and guacamole apps. I had the pistachio crusted fish and also got to tried the birria, which was so yummy. I love fried plantains and these were among the best I have had. Also shout out Alejandra our server. She was terrific! read more

Really cool place to visit. The food is very unique. We went for lunch and they still had their brunch menu out so we will definitely return to see the full dinner menu. Good had a lots of flavor and tasted very fresh. The corn tortillas were some of the best I've ever had. They didn't have that dry taste a lot of corn tortillas had. Our churros took a while to come out as they were being made fresh and the staff came by to let us know of the delay. The atmosphere of the place is very cool and having the cave booth gave a private dining experience read more

I had a dinner date with my wife recently at Cuevacia and it was a very enjoyable evening. The extensive build-out of the space has erased any vestiges of the sushi place that preceded it and imbued an extremely cool Oaxacan vibe...it's hard to believe this place is in Colony Square! The downstairs tables are like mini grottos (very moody) and the upstairs has great views of both the bar below and the street level (more lively). Since it was our first time we received a small complimentary appetizer sampler that was really nice; the very fresh tortilla chips were great. To drink I ordered an Adoración cocktail and it was very nice; for dinner I opted for the Tamal Oaxaqueño which was good if not overly flavorful. Service was excellent from checking in with the hostess to our attentive waitress and finally the manager stopping by to ensure we were satisfied. Cuevacia looks to be a unique addition to Midtown's food scene so I look forward to returning to further explore the menu. read more

Had a fantastic double date at Cuevacia! Our party of four arrived for a 5:45 PM reservation and received a warm welcome. Our wonderful server immediately recommended the house margarita. It is excellent--crisp, not overly sweet, and perfect for real tequila lovers. We started with the guacamole and empanadas, which were great, followed by exceptional entrees. My scallops were cooked to perfection, and my friends thoroughly enjoyed their chicken, steak, and fish tacos. Exceptional service from start to finish. Highly recommended! read more

This place is aesthetically gorgeous! As soon as you walk in the big beautiful wooden door, you see cactuses and decor on the wall along with a lighted stairwell. The round-cave seating is very intimate and private. They even have nice outdoor seating which we moved to later for cocktails. The service was beyond excellent! I think we had at least two or three different managers or people come by and ask if everything was going OK. The drinks are strong, so beware (good thing). I will say the passionfruit margarita tasted more sour than sweet, which I told them about, and they took off the check, even though I wasn't expecting that, since I had already drunk most of it. I was just giving them simple feedback. The Paraiso blood orange was my favorite cocktail. We were there more than two hours, so we just moved our car and came back in and got it revalidated The queso appetizer was a favorite of mine, and my friends loved the smoked salmon. The only complaint was that the drinks were a little slow coming out. They validate parking for 2 hours. We were there more than two hours, so we just moved our car and came back in and got it revalidated. Overall great experience read more

This brand new restaurant had amazing service and the coolest vibe in the city. They have turned around this previously used space into a completely unrecognizable stone cave that may be my new favorite restaurant ambiance in the city. It is a small space but they have used it so effectively and designed it incredibly. The staff was so attentive with the managers even coming over and interacting with us several times. The food also met expectations with the flavor. They give you a free appetizer set when you sit down which was a fun introduction into their Oaxaca flavors. Every cocktail and dish we ordered was excellent. The octopus was so tender and great spice level. Our personal favorite dish of the evening was the chicken mole. The maduros and mole sauce were excellent. I love their collection of tequila and mezcal as well. They were willing to play around with their collection as well. They made my fiancé an off menu mezcal manhattan which he loved. This was a much needed addition to cooling square where I think a lot of the restaurant food does not match their vibes. I can't wait to go back and try the whole menu. read more

I was very disappointed with my recent experience at Cuevacia. I had been genuinely excited to try it and chose to visit on Sunday evening to celebrate my friend's birthday. Unfortunately, the overall experience did not meet our expectations. To begin with the positives, our server, Jackie, was exceptionally kind and attentive. The drinks were excellent, and we both thoroughly enjoyed them. My friend also ordered the queso fundido with homemade chips, which was very good. However, the remainder of our visit was quite disappointing. My friend ordered the Chicken Tinga tacos, and I ordered the Chicken Quesadilla. Shortly after, the manager, German, informed us that the quesadilla was unavailable because the kitchen had discarded the necessary ingredients. I then requested a side of beans, queso mole, and chips instead. When our server returned, she brought two orders of Chicken Tinga tacos and explained that the manager had entered that order for me. This was not what I had requested, but I decided to try it regardless. Unfortunately, the chicken was mushy and slimy in texture. Both my friend and I found it unappetizing and sent the dish back. After that, my friend decided she did not want to order anything further, as she was put off by the experience. I again asked for my original alternative of beans, queso mole, and chips. Our server returned and informed us that the kitchen had discarded the remaining ingredients and there was nothing else available to prepare for us. As a result, I left the restaurant without having eaten. What was most concerning was the lack of managerial follow-up. The manager entered an order I did not request, did not return to address the situation, and did not offer any accommodation or adjustment to the bill. The only time I saw him afterward was when we were leaving, and he was seated at the bar reviewing receipts. There was no acknowledgment of the inconvenience or attempt to remedy the situation. I share this feedback because I believe in giving businesses the opportunity to improve. I was particularly surprised, as I understand this restaurant is owned by the same group behind Saint and Council, where I have consistently experienced excellent food and customer service. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used to improve the overall guest experience. read more

Went to Cuevacia at Colony Square and was honestly impressed. This isn't your typical Midtown Mexican spot. The food leans Oaxacan and upscale - rich, slow-cooked flavors, simple but thoughtful plating, and dishes that actually feel traditional instead of overdone or trendy. Cocktails were a highlight. Very mezcal-forward, well balanced, and not overly sweet. You can tell real care went into the drink menu. The space is beautiful - stone, arches, great mood lighting. Feels great for a date night or a quieter dinner where you actually want to talk. Service was attentive and very knowledgeable. If you're looking for something different than the usual Atlanta restaurant rotation, Cuevacia is worth checking out. read more

OMG! What a disappointment. The food was mediocre at best. The Guacamole con Totopos lacked flavor, the Aguachile de Camarón tasted more like a shrimp cocktail with a watery lime sauce, and the Pescado con Pistachios was downright awful--the fish was completely overpowered by burnt pistachios. The Arrachera Norteña flank steak was disappointingly dry and lacked the tenderness you'd expect. On the positive side, the atmosphere deserves an A++--beautiful ambiance and a great vibe. Unfortunately, the $24 parking fee earns an F- all by itself. So, Cuevacía, congratulations: you've earned my "F-caw-F" Review of the Month, and you may even be a strong contender for Review of the Year. read more
