It was raining and we ran inside the first open restaurant we could find and I feel so lucky it was…read morethis place. Good quality food, pricier than other places but I had just recovered from an upset stomach and they seemed very cleanly so I took a chance. My French toast was exactly what I needed. Many of the decorations in the space were made of recycled materials which I think made the space very chic but sustainable. My partner ordered the eggs Benedict oaxacan style with pan con mole, queso y chapulines. IT WAS DELICIOUS!

Meh. I found this place to be a little overpriced for what it is. It was quiet when I went in,…read morethere were only 2-3 tables occupied around lunchtime. They have a large menu mostly comprised of sandwiches and burgers. Some odd items for Mexico including a bagel with lox and a Rueben. With that said I'm a little tired of Mexican food after being here for about two weeks so I opted to give it a try. I actually really liked the broccoli salad that came with the sandwich, it was tasty and fresh. Would definitely get that again. The sandwich was good, but the bread was terrible - so dry and hard. It was a bummer because the rest of the ingredients were yummy. They should have just thrown it on some simple white bread and it would be 10x better. Cheesecake was yummy but again a little pricey at 80 pesos. Probably wouldn't come back but I would consider getting a small side of the broccoli salad to go as a snack in the future.

Great tortas here made by people with proper food handling procedure. We've tried the Oaxaceño…read moresalsicha, the tinga de pollo, the jamón and the chorizo, all were good, and on nice tasty bread. Always a line out front but it moves quickly. Nearly everything is in the 30 peso range also, so super cheap. They may ask you "para aqui o para llevar" (for here or to go) which may seem nonsensical for a food truck, but if you say "para aqui" they'll just give it to you on a paper plate to eat there in the park, whereas para llevar means they put it in a bag.

For 27 pesos you get a delicious torta. I wish I had discovered it sooner. There was a line to…read moreorder and I can see why. Got the torta con pollo y quesillo. Delicious! I'm going to go back and try a chorizo and egg torta next time because it looked good when I saw them making it.

My husband had a red pozole and I had chicken soup--both excellent! They bring out complimentary toasted tortillas and a thin, garlic-y guacamole which is truly special. Also, this place is cozy, cheap and kid-friendly (even though both high chairs were broken, which was annoying)

It was expensive, but delicious! So...... visit at your own risk!

Was literally on my way to a restaurant a mile away for some lunchtime tamales and atole…read morechampurrado and walked smack right into this food stall. They do three kinds of tamales: mole, verde and rojo, and champurrado. I got two tamales de mole, used to the wimpy tamales in the states. Whoa, these babies are freakin huge. I was so full after one. And the mole was complex and rich and sweet and savory all at the same time. Duh, it's Oaxaca. The grandmas know what's up.

My boyfriend and I stopped here after walking to the zócalo. El menú del día was only 68 pesos…read moreeach. It included a cup of soup, bread, mole con pollo y arroz, tortillas, dessert, and a drink. The soup was very good. It was a thin broth with rice and a few tiny pieces of veggies. The server also gave us diced onions and jalapenos for it, which added a lot of flavor. The mole was interesting. This was the first time that I've tried it so I don't really have anything else to compare it to yet. The dessert was a small slice of cake. It was a great way to end the meal. Also, we got the piña (pineapple) aguas and it was really good. Note: Since this is so close to the zócalo where the teachers are protesting, tourists should be extra aware of what's going on. We were there on Sunday afternoon and it was calm then. However, we saw a lot of police (8 cars/trucks) pass us on our way home.
