Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Oaxaca

The one place our friends that live in Oaxaca said was a must, and they were right! Delicious food, friendly service and nice location. We came in for lunch after a hot day in the botanical garden and the courtyard at Origen was perfect with its airy atmosphere. With a refreshing beer in hand, we started with three appetizers and were blown away. The Fish Ceviche, Duck Enchiladas and Beef Tartare were amazing… so much so that we had another Ceviche as our entree. Our kids shared the Res-Tirada Rib-Eye and loved it! Great service and atmosphere, with authentic cuisine. Our favorite in Oaxaca so far! A+!

Beautiful restaurant, incredible atmosphere. The host was very rude and dismissive to my request for a table in the courtyard which then sat empty the entire night while we stared at it from our bright table in a busy walkway. The appetizers were lovely but the main dish was disappointing - the tuna was very fishy and unpleasant. Desserts were delicious and beautifully presented. We were lucky for the tip that a tasting menu is sharable - it was more than enough food for the two of us and more affordable as well. It’s not the best but a gorgeous spot and worth a visit if you’re into interiors not on a budget!

We had our wedding reception here 7 years ago and come back every year on our anniversary. The quality has remained consistent over time. Highly recommend!

Dinner reservation at 6pm on the patio was perfect for beautiful light overlooking the city. Service was excellent and food delicious.

This was a really great introduction to all things Mezcal. We had Isabelle who was great at talking us through the processes for creating the different kinds of drink and was keen to ensure we got plenty of tasting experience too! Really good fun and great value for money.
