The Overlook

The views were amazing, but that was it. Do not come here for the food or the service as they were both terrible. Waiters were rude, slow and forgetful, he wouldn’t provide the wifi password when we first asked, but reluctantly agreed after we asked again. They also do not have many things on the menu, he offered to make a margarita with rum as they had no tequila. Come for the view but that’s it.

Truly the best view of Oaxaca that we saw during our stay, but the service was horrible!! I asked for a quesadilla and he brought two fried cheese tacos. They didn’t have bottle water and no avocados for a guacamole. Seriously, this is Mexico!! Bathrooms are not up to par so I refused to go. My recommendation is order you a drink and take a few fotos. Go eat somewhere else!!

Great views! Chilaquiles were OK, and reasonably priced. Dinner menu looked much pricier. Was kind of tough to find, but mainly because the location was pinned wrong (should be fixed now but if you’re still lost, it’s by a light-green shaped M, or more of a rectangle arch right off the highway and next to what looks like a bus stop).

We had a late lunch here. The view is absolutely amazing and our waiter Ricardo took are of us very well. By the way he is English speaking should that be an advantage to you. Had snacks and a couple of beers. Decided to bring family over for Christmas Day.

Amazing views and the prices don't undermine that fact unreasonably. There's a route up Calle Niño Artillero that google maps won't show you that makes it a shorter trip up from much of Oaxaca if you don't mind hiking up the hill.

Really good view but that's about it. Waiters were clueless and unhelpful, arrived when fairly empty and said "sit anywhere" then moved us several times since "reservations were coming" but we ate and they never showed up. Service was very slow and they had to ask the kitchen about everything and they didn't seem to know their own menu. The large number of waiters were mostly standing around looking at the floor and getting their attention seemed like an inconvenience. The food was 'meh' at best, but the French fries were gummy and the tortillas served cold. I guess it was a good visit for a sunset view but sad that in a foodie city like Oaxaca this place was not better.
