Aquí, un ritmo animado acompaña la transparencia de luz que hace vibrar los colores. La sutileza de lo esencial subraya el poder evocador de los olores y sabores que surgen de la cocina de Alejandro Ruiz.

Se mezclan los aromas y los sabores de hierbas mediterráneas con las oaxaqueñas. Así, la albahaca y el romero comparten sus tintes con la hoja santa, la pitiona y el shorobobo. Asimismo, granada, pescados y mariscos, venado y cordero alternan con chapulines, huitlacoche y quesillo.

Cinco sentidos influenciados por una extraordinaria vivencia gastronómica.

    Es nuestra tercer visita al restaurante y sobra decir que somos fans de el mismo y de todas las propiedades de Alex Ruiz, a nuestra llegada a oaxaca fuimos a las Barbacoas de Mexico y ayer a Portozuelo. Volviendo a Casa Oaxaca y a característica salsa de molcajete hecha en tu mesa con chapulines es deliciosa, comimos el chile güero relleno de ceviche delicioso, la flor de calabaza rellena de requesón mi favorita desde el año pasado y que decir de la tlayuda de insectos la más deliciosa. El pavo delicioso con el mole y bueno mi favorito el pato uff. Pedí un cocktel de mago algo realmente delicioso con mezcal, plátano y mango y el postre fue chocolates Oaxaqueños otra delicia sin duda!

    I absolutely loved the squash blossom appetizer, and the crab tostada. The ceviche was also excellent. Highly recommend!!  Try to sit under a fan if you can, it got pretty toasty on the roof around 2 o’clock in the afternoon.

    I did my homework before this trip, and everything I had read about this place proved to be true, and then some. Salsa prepared tableside was transcendent, then the crudo pesca was a sublime starter. My last night in Oaxaca, so I ordered TWO entrees: short rib mole manchamanteles (brilliant) & cachete de res (beef cheek, magnificent). This joint is a must, a MUST, you will not be disappointed!!!
