El Armadillo Zipolite — Restaurant in Oaxaca

Very disappointed. Makes me wonder if the 5 star reviews are all friends of the owner or something. The falafel wasn’t great and it is ridiculously overpriced. Great retro setup but I can’t say I would ever come back. no prices on the menu - even on their website. So expect to pay more if you’re white or a tourist.

Great little addition...

The passion for culinary art is evident in the taste. A wholehearted recommendation on all levels. I am already looking forward to...
