No mole negro-one of my favorite things about Oaxaca, but all you can eat Oaxacan style food for 60 Pesos, about $3.50 USD, just about half of what I paid for a more extensive buffet on the Zocalo. The first time I was there both the staff and customers were having a great time watching Shrek. Fun! If you want to enjoy Oaxacan food away from the tourist scene, this is it.

When we arrived, they had our reservation at the place was so nice. They even had live music at one point but not loud very nice music. They had a great selection of drinks and wine so you couldn't go wrong there. We got a variety of plates. I got the steak which was phenomenal. It literally was like butter. My aunt got the mole and I have to say that was delicious. We also actually started with a beat and goat fluff cheese, which was amazing. Definitely must have. We also got a shrimp taco, which was phenomenal. For a drink I got a carajillo which is one of my favorite things to drink when I'm in Mexico. Overall, great experience here everything was beautiful and great presentation and very well served. Definitely booked this restaurant when you are in the city.

I stopped in a little past 2 PM on Sunday, August 3rd and decided to go with the buffet. I was…read moregreeted immediately upon entering, and I was given my choice of tables. I picked my table in the larger of two seating areas. The place was pretty busy and there was a little boy, whom I assume was family to someone working there. He was scurrying around the entrance and was quite loud, but not a big deal for me. The restaurant was rather plainly furnished with sparse decorations. I asked for the one free water that came with the buffet. The water actually tasted like lemonade, which I liked, but it wasn't just water. The buffet wasn't huge, but afforded many choices. I tried a little bit of almost everything available. I made two trips to the buffet, and certainly got my money's worth. My two opinions on the food were that many dishes were too salty, and nothing tasted fresh. None of the many items I tried wowed me. It was all just okay. I definitely take into account that I was eating from a buffet, along with the timing of my visit may have impacted the quality of many dishes. The trade off was the price, which was 175 pesos. The exchange rate on that day equated to $9.28 USD, which is a great value. I will likely return because of the price and hope for some fresher flavors.

It had good reviews though so I was hoping that I would be pleasantly surprised! On the plus side - the buffet is $150 pesos; very reasonable with a drink included. Food is horrible to my palate. Maybe better to Mexicans' expectations of Chinese food but I hated what I tried. I did like the beef and broccoli as well as the orange chicken(??) and egg rolls. Would not recommend.

I had the 3 course menu of the day and it included soup, entree, a flan dessert and a nice drink. The soup was cilantro soup and it was very fresh and delicious. The chicken thigh with vegetables was very good, as was the flan( although I was way too full to really enjoy it ). The drink was a version of ice tea. Yum u could get seconds if you wanted to. My husband had pork belly. The sauce was a spicy red sauce, which was very flavorful. We enjoyed the fact that they had craft beers also. Ambiance is nice especially in the bright back room, where the fans really helped to deal with the midday heat. If you want a great meal for a very reasonable price, go here.
