It has been quite a while since I have been in Oaxaca but…

El Biche Pobre
Calz. de la República 600, Barrio de Jalatlaco, 68000 Oaxaca de Juárez
We had great smoky Margaritas with Local Mezcal, Yellow Ancho Chilies Rellenos , a Mixed Botanas Platter. Friendly folk and Delicious Food.

Marco Polo Calle de José María Pino Suárez 806, RUTA INDEPENDENCIA, Centro
We had a good Seafood Meal. Nice outdoor seating

Gato Negro Cafe
Francisco I. Madero 112, FERROCARRIL, 25 de Enero, 71243 Oaxaca, Oax., Mexico
Nice quite Café with good Coffee and Pastries. And when we were there a very friendly Gato Negro

Great Ice cream just next to the Cathedral on the Weekends.

In general the Food in Oaxaca is pretty amazing I do not think we had a bad meal while we were there.
Tlayudas, Moles, super thin Tamales Oaxaqueños, Memelas, Empanadas Amarillo etc…

Thank you! This is very helpful.

I’ve been to Oaxaca several times over the last 10 years so I have some favorites. Some of the higher end destination restaurants I go to time and again are Los Danzantes, Levadura de Olla, Tierra Del Sol, and Casa Oaxaca. I also love the vegan cafe Hierba Dulce for amazing and healthy food utilizing a lot of local ingredients. If you want to sample some mezcal and graze on snacks go to Expendio Tradicion.
