About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for creative cocktails
Aquí, un ritmo animado acompaña la transparencia de luz que hace vibrar los colores. La sutileza de lo esencial subraya el poder evocador de los olores y sabores que surgen de la cocina de Alejandro Ruiz.

Se mezclan los aromas y los sabores de hierbas mediterráneas con las oaxaqueñas. Así, la albahaca y el romero comparten sus tintes con la hoja santa, la pitiona y el shorobobo. Asimismo, granada, pescados y mariscos, venado y cordero alternan con chapulines, huitlacoche y quesillo.

Cinco sentidos influenciados por una extraordinaria vivencia gastronómica.

    El servicio es muy bueno pero muy rígido. La comida es excelente, el lugar maravilloso y la vista única. Aunque es caro, si lo vale . La vista es una maravilla.

    Outstanding food. Cauliflower with peanut mole, sea bass cooked to perfection. Crab salad tostada with a wonderful array of sauces. Great spot for an upscale meal. The service was ok. I was surprised when a staff member asked to take my plate before I had finished and again after I was done but my lunch companion was still eating.

    After reading numerous glowing reviews, we were excited to dine at Casa Oaxaca, but unfortunately, our experience fell short of expectations. Despite the beautiful ambiance and high praise from others, our meal was served cold, which was a significant letdown. What compounded the issue was the lack of attention from our waiter. Once our meal was delivered, he never returned to check on us, leaving us feeling neglected. The only redeeming moment came when, assuming it was a manager, someone finally approached our table to inquire about our meal. Upon expressing our disappointment, they kindly offered to send out a complimentary dessert, which was indeed lovely. However, this gesture, while appreciated, couldn't offset the overall disappointment. Given the high price point of this meal, we were expecting a much higher level of quality and service. Unfortunately, Casa Oaxaca did not meet these expectations, and we would not return or recommend it based on our experience.

    La comida bien, pero pedí un sashimi de atún con callo de hacha y no sentí que estaba muy fresco el producto. La atención del mesero no fue la mejor.

    The band playing smooth music in the background, full moon shining over the rooftop terrace with the Templo de Santo Domingo de Guzmán as backdrop, incredible staff and attention, and of course, amazing food. It was a was an experience we're looking forward to repeating.
