- JjeanneChicago / Illinois •8 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoMy husband and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner on the rooftop. Gorgeous setting next to the main temple! We ordered mezcal cocktails, the tomato and burrata salad, the quesadilla, and the short rib entrée. Everything was delicious and without a single flaw. They surprised us by mixing up a fresh salsa in a molcajete at the table. Got to try fried grasshoppers -a salty ingredient in the salsa if you prefer. Do not miss this opportunity when in Oaxaca!More infoCasa Oaxaca El RestaurantePrice: Very Expensive• Regional Mexican• Oaxaca•4.6

They had very limited menu the evening we were there, but everything we tried was excellent. Walking through the hotel to enter the restaurant adds to the experience.

- KKatvipChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined on Jul 31, 2024This was such a wonderful experience! This is a true family business, and mom/dad/and son were all in attendance. We were the only people in the tasting, and so it really felt like we were just tasting Mezcal with this lovely family having us over. They were friendly, knowledgeable, warm, and passionate! I would very much recommend this!More infoMezcal Tasting Room by Gül-RooPrice: Very Expensive• Mexican• Oaxaca•5
