Restaurante Lindo Oaxaca Cancun — Restaurant in Cancún

Here’s a "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" style review for your visit to Lindo Oaxaca Café:

The Good: Lindo Oaxaca Café offers a unique and lively atmosphere. During my visit, there was a live radio show happening, which was both interesting and amazing to experience. The food was delicious, and the coffee was perfectly balanced—nothing too overpowering, just a delightful cup of café de olla.

The prices were very reasonable, and overall, I had no complaints.

The Bad: Honestly, there wasn’t much to critique during this visit. Everything met or exceeded expectations, from the ambiance to the service and the food quality.

Overall: Lindo Oaxaca Café is a fantastic spot with great food, excellent coffee, and an enjoyable vibe. I’d definitely come back again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique...

I love Oaxacan food and this was some of the best I've tried. Absolutely incredible meal. The mole negro was so rich and complex, with perfectly juicy tender chicken. Everything seasoned richly, balanced, perfect. From the creamy frijoles negros to the table salsas.

Chiles rellenos con queso. Beautiful mildly spicy chiles, perfect texture batter, and the MOST DELICIOUS beans and rice. Every element on the plate was so perfectly...

If you want to experience a typical Sunday Mexican Family Restaurant, I highly recommend you visit on Sunday. They have a solo singer and you see families sing along. The sad news is their plates are not true to a real Oaxacan meal. I ordered Enmoladas con Cecina and was not served Cecina. They put carne enchilada which is so so different. I reviewed the fotos before visiting and saw it was real cecina and even showed the waitress the image. I know for a fact that carne enchilada is less expensive then real cecina. They have no Oaxacan beer, few Mexican beer.The AC didn't work very well that Sunday. I...
