- KKayleeOaxaca •2 reviews5.0Dined on 6 Feb 2025This was the best mole (by far) that I found in Oaxaca city. In my opinion the food and service was better than other Michelin restaurants I tried in the city. The space is quaint and the waiter we had in the afternoon was knowledgeable and attentive. I ended up at La Olla twice on my trip because of how amazing the food and service was.More infoRestaurante La OllaPrice: Expensive• Mexican• Oaxaca•4.4
- EEdwardAustin •1 review5.0Dined on 29 Dec 2024A wonderfully illuminating experience where we learned about the wide variety of techniques for producing mezcal and the many flavors that can result. Leonor's pride in her family's product is evident, and it comes through in the beautiful mezcals they serve.More infoMezcal Tasting Room by Gül-RooPrice: Very Expensive• Mexican• Oaxaca•5
