Oaxaca

"We had a table for 2 at 5:30 pm on Tuesday, 2/6/24. Free parking in the Attiva garage behind the restaurant. It was early, so we were seated right away! Service was great. Stephanie was our waitress and she was wonderful. Cool lighting, nice ambiance. I would say it’s good for a date night if you’re not paying. We split 2 appetizers and a side, and each got 2 tacos. Here’s what I had: - Herb Guacamole ($18): Decent portion, but $18 seems excessive. - Elote ($8): Very good!! Perfectly seasoned. - Papas Bravas ($10): $10 seems excessive, but they were good. Crispy on the outside, with cotija cheese generously sprinkled over. - Carne Asada Taco (normally $8, $6 on Taco Tuesday: Fine. - Al Pastor Taco ($6 on Taco Tuesday): Not as much flavor as I would’ve liked. The salsa that came on the side (I put it on both tacos) was very flavorful, but spicy. Overall, great service, with average food at a high price. Nice to try once, but I don’t feel the need to go back."

"We came for lunch on a Sunday. We ordered squash blossom quesadilla, dobladita de pato, gorditas de chorizo y papa and several cocktails. Service was incredible, staff is very knowledgeable about every dish and their ingredients. I can’t wait to try their dinner menu"

"3.8 | this spot came recommended. very good tacos and the flavors were nice & tasted very fresh. the duck was a bit too salty for me but flavors were good. I had a cocktail with wine [forgot the name] but it was quite lovely. I’d definitely come back. the atmosphere is also beautiful, and the service was good."
