In 1985, we founded this establishment with the primary goal of preserving the ancient and exquisite Oaxacan cuisine of the Central Valleys, where the seven moles are the stars of our menu. Each dish is prepared with dedication, following traditional recipes to offer you an authentic culinary experience.

In addition to our culinary offerings, we boast a varied selection of beverages that will delight even the most discerning palates. We pride ourselves on providing personalized and warm service through our owners, ensuring that every guest feels at home in a pleasant and family-friendly atmosphere. We love animals and are pet-friendly, so your four-legged friend is always welcome. We look forward to welcoming you with open arms!

    I don’t understand why this restaurant wasn’t packed. The food and price point are excellent. We met the owner and his wife, the chef. They are charming and excellent guides to the cuisine. We found the indoor seating to be airy, yet warm and quiet, which we preferred to being upstairs on an open balcony in February. Their speciality is the moles, all seven of which are offered, and we finished every bit of the two that we were given with our dishes. The watercress salad had the most awesome local tomatoes (in February, no less). Dessert for us was an amazing chocolate layer cake with buttercream and chocolate mousse in each layer, studded with truffles. With a tad of syrup the cake would have been perfect. It was a touch dry. My only comment was that we arrived early in the evening and communication with staff was hard, because we didn’t speak spanish well. In about 15 minutes a native english speaking server was on the scene, who would have solved our issue. Highly recommended

    When the Chefs have time to come over and talk about the dishes you know you're in good hands. Wonderful food. Yes, the 7-mole tasting is worth it and worth sharing. Excellent Mezcal list, too.

    La Botana y el mole colorado son espectaculares, acompañados de una cerveza local Santa Helodia, una IPA afrutada que le va perfecto. Pero lo mejor fue la atención y el calor de Ana y Paco, quienes estuvieron pendientes de nosotros todo el tiempo en la barra y compartiendo un poco de la historia del lugar y sus platillos.
