Restaurants near Mitla Archeological Zone

Outstanding experience all around. Great service, stellar food. We have been to Oaxaca a dozen trips, and this we proclaimed as the best ever!

We ate dinner on the roof. Service was great and good food. They serve complimentary salsa made at table FYI. We both got different types of mole-delish.

I had the pleasure of dining at this charming spot, and I have to say, it was an absolute treat for the senses. The 6-course tasting menu was perfectly balanced, offering a delightful mix of fresh ingredients with bold, traditional Oaxacan flavors. Each dish was expertly crafted, with incredible attention to detail – nothing was too heavy, and everything was served at the perfect temperature. The flavors were vibrant and beautifully executed, especially the roasted eggplant and the dish featuring zucchini flowers, which really stood out for their depth and uniqueness. The desserts were also a highlight, with just the right amount of sweetness – nothing cloying, just a perfect balance. The ambiance of the place is truly special – surrounded by chickens, roosters, and their chicks, creating a very authentic and homely feel (in tribute to the restaurant’s name). What made it even more perfect for us? It’s pet-friendly, so we didn’t have to leave our furry friend behind. Definitely a must-visit – highly recommend you go without hesitation!

My second time here. The food is amazing. Great flavour and presentation.

We decided to give this place a shot to break from Oaxacas food (delicious, but too many days), even though is a tad far from downtown. We really loved it! Seafood was fresh and delicious and recipes were very original. Dishes show care and attention to detail. Service is the best we’ve encountered in Oaxaca so far. Definitely worth it!!
