La Olla

We took our son who is a chef to this restaurant on his first night in Oacaca. He wanted to get a good mole dish and based on the reviews we thought it would be good. We orderd the tlayudas and he ordered the tamal mole. Our tlayudas was okay but the beef on top was not flavorful at all. His mole tasted burnt so he couldn't eat it. Really disappointing.

Fantastic everything. The steak was cooked perfectly and the pasta option was delightful. Attentive service.

Great food and service in a colorful decor. We were told the terrace opens after 5 pm.

I expected more based on the reviews. The food was mediocre and overpriced for the lack of flavor and service. The restaurant was not busy and I always had to look for the waitress.

In regards to the food, we ordered a few dishes that did not meet the expectations of Oaxaca. The mole enchiladas were not served hot and the mole was not as flavorful as other places. Avoid the mole.

There are better options for the price point in the area with way better food or go to the market for quality food.

I visited twice during my 2 week stay in Oaxaca because the flan is simply the best in town. The service was as good as the food. Highly recommend!

Excellent cooking class with Pilar! We met at the restaurant, went to Mercado Merced (amazing place!) for ingredients, and spent a wonderful time learning with Pilar at her house. Deeply intense moles and the most amazing tamales were made. Great experience - 5 stars!

Sit on the terrace! The views are sensational! The food is incredible and the portions are huge. Lots of traditional flavors here with an unbeatable price point! Just go. You won't be disappointed!
