Exquisitely delicious Aztec soup accompanied by lemonade. Excellent service from a young waitress who was very pretty and attentive in her treatment. The place is very clean, spacious, pleasant, everything impeccable, clean bathrooms. They have a terminal. Being able to pay by card is always practical. They have the menu physically and by QR code. They have wifi, they remodeled and the place looks very nice. You can go with family, friends, your partner or alone. I highly recommend it and I will definitely return soon.

It is a traditional restaurant-taqueria-pozoleria in the city of Oaxaca, it has several branches in strategic points of the city, it is not cheap but its seasoning is worth it, when you visit Oaxaca be sure to visit it.

The food is very delicious, although the prices are somewhat high, the flavor is worth it. I recommend the Oaxacan wire. On the other hand, the service can improve.

The arrachera tacos and passion fruit water were both well above average and solidly priced. Would return to try pozole.
