Afe — Restaurant in Oaxaca

Went there twice. First for Lunch: They gave us the menu and as it was lunch, not all options were available. We had Pescadillios (80$) and Tlayuda vegetales (90 $). Both was very good. As the dining menu sounded very good too and was reasonably priced (plate with grilled fish filet for 200 $), we came back for dinner. The waitress said, that there is no menu for dinner and all options listed on the wall under "cena" (dinner) are not available. She told us only Red Snapper, dorada, shrimps and lobster is available.

Ended up with 900 $ for one small red snapper and a tiny lobster without drinks. For half the price you can go to the most upscale restaurant in Zipolite and get a perfect plate of fish or meat in a nice setting.

Service was excellent and everyone was super friendly.

The restaurant is right on the main road entering the Adoquin, so can be quite busy (and dusty during...

We went to this delightful place for dinner. I had the entomatadas, while my companions enjoyed the blue corn pancakes. I’m not sure how they prepare their food here or if it's a characteristic of Oaxacan cuisine, but oh, was it delicious! The entomatadas had the exact flavors I was expecting and more, and the blue corn pancakes (gluten-free) were accompanied by authentic bee honey, which made them absolutely scrumptious. The talented ladies and cooks in the back truly knew what they were doing. We even tried to return for dinner, but unfortunately, it was getting late (around 9:15). We were really looking forward to...
