The lamb risotto with truffle was pretty good&mdash;rich without being too heavy. Service was fine, attentive but not hovering. We went on a Friday night and it wasn&#39;t too loud, which was nice. Decent spot if you&#39;re looking for something a bit more interesting than the usual places. Just wish the portions were slightly bigger.

The ceviche portion was huge, honestly. Prices are a bit steep but at least you&#39;re getting something solid for it. Fine for a nicer night out.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Got the seasonal menu, pretty solid. That tomato dessert thing was wild, never had anything like it. Service was fast, which I appreciated. Place was a bit pricey for what it is, but the food&#39;s good. Good spot if you&#39;re in Oaxaca and want something quick but interesting.

The garnachas here taste like someone&rsquo;s abuela actually made them. Crispy, a little greasy, perfect with the salsa. Tamales were solid too, soft and steamy. Place is small and simple, no frills, but the flavors carry it. I&rsquo;d come back just for that. Maybe not the cheapest, but you&rsquo;re paying for the real deal.

The huevos divorciados were really good, and the rooftop made it a nice spot to enjoy my juice. David took care of us well.

The waiter suggested swapping a side so I could try both dishes I wanted&mdash;nice touch. Huauzontle with mole coloradito was solid, though the entree portions ran small.

The concha rellena was the star&mdash;so good, the filling was fresh and not overly sweet. I sat on the patio, which is small but nice for a quiet bite. Service was friendly enough. Only thing: the coffee machine was down when I went, so I couldn&#39;t pair it with anything warm. Still, that concha alone made it worth stopping by.

The octopus was pretty good&mdash;tender and well seasoned. Mango mezcal drink paired nicely. Service was fine, bill felt fair for what we got. Decent spot if you&#39;re nearby.

The tortillas and salsas were really fresh, and the place has a nice vibe to it. Service was solid too. Just wish the seating was a bit more comfortable.

Stopped by for drinks only. Didn&rsquo;t eat but the plates coming out looked solid. Michelle took care of us, super nice. Maybe next time I&rsquo;ll actually order food.

Been coming here for a while now, and the green pozole with pork is still my go-to. That broth is packed with flavor every single time. Birria quesadillas are solid too. Prices are fair for what you get, especially with the portions. Place gets busy but it&#39;s worth it.

The Caprini pizza was solid&mdash;good crust, nice balance of toppings. Pairing it with a glass of red worked out well. Service dragged a bit, but the staff stayed friendly.

The mango smoothie&rsquo;s still my go-to&mdash;cheap and hits the spot every time. WiFi&rsquo;s decent for hanging out too. Just don&rsquo;t forget they&rsquo;re cash only.

Came here with the family last weekend. Food was solid, got the tacos al pastor and they didn&#39;t disappoint. Service was quick too. Only thing is I wish I could&#39;ve tried more stuff, but I was too full. Place gets busy around dinner time, so go early if you can.

The terrace is really nice, and the service was on point. But the food didn&#39;t quite live up to the vibe. I had the chilaquiles, they were okay. The shrimp though, I&#39;d skip that one. Maybe stick to something simpler if you go.

Spacious courtyard, plenty of room to spread out with a laptop. WiFi held up fine during a couple hours of work. Coffee was decent, bagel did the job. Not the quietest spot, but for getting things done it works. Fair price for what you get.

Came in on New Year&#39;s Day when almost everything else was closed. Place was packed but service didn&#39;t slow down. Got a cortado and a lunch sandwich, both did the job. Only thing&mdash;seats are those hard wooden stools, not great for lingering too long. Fine for a quick bite though.

Cute little spot when you&#39;re tired of tacos. Bibimbap hit the spot, ramyeon was solid. They&#39;ll add extra spice if you ask, which I appreciate. Kimchi was a nice bonus.

They made us a little veggie tasting menu on the spot when we asked. Everything was tasty, no complaints. Just wish they had more options written on the regular menu.

The wood-oven pizza here is legit, that crust alone is worth it. Staff was chill, didn&rsquo;t rush us or anything. Prices felt fair for the portion. Just wish the place had a bit more airflow, got a little stuffy inside. But yeah, solid spot if you&rsquo;re in the area. 🍕
