Selva is a gorgeous little cocktail bar, cozy, stylish, and full of character. The bartenders…read morereally know their craft; they took time to explain each drink and even the garnish pairings, which made the whole experience feel elevated. I made the mistake of showing up on an empty stomach, and that's on me, but that's definitely not the move here. The food is designed as small bites to complement the cocktails, not full meals, but everything I tried paired beautifully. The tuna tostadas were a standout; super flavorful and perfectly balanced with my drink. This is the spot I'd come back to for a nightcap or date, beautiful ambiance, great music, and a refined but welcoming vibe.

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.

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.

I know it sounds like hyperbole, but it was fabulous, as was the ambiance. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants an informal dinner of the best quality. Try the Ensalada Costumbre and any of the pizzas. I'm not into mezcal, and I had one of the best tequila margaritas I've had in Oaxaca. Don't miss it for a fine informal meal!

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.
