El Rincon Del Café — Restaurant in Oaxaca

It was not our first time here but first time to order food. It was freshly prepared and very tasty - muy rico 😃 Food didn't get 5 stars as I am not a fan of French fries and would have loved .... frijoles ? arroz ? Pastel de zanahorias with my espresso would also have been nice.

We were the first guests, ordered drinks, yet by the time we were ready to order the meal quite a few other guests had arrived, obviously known what to order and were alreadyk eating when we had just searched the menu.

We had nothing else planned so waiting would not have been an issue .... but we were hungry 🙄

The same delay happened when after having eaten I ordered an espresso ....

Everybody else it seemed had ordered coffee-containing drinks before me 🤷🏾‍♀️

The service was awesome - thank you, Giovanni, for your excellent and charming service 👻

Difficult access. Beware google maps. It does one of its worst jobs ever getting you to this place. IF YOU even make it to where it wants to take you, then you have to park and follow an unmarked trail hundreds of yards down a steep hill, past a dwelling and abandoned buildings.

They made the pineapple juice from a fresh pineapple. At least one of the family speaks English.

I've dined all over the world and have a soft spot for "hole in the wall" restaurants. This place redefines...

It is an amazing discovery. We picked up a hitch-hiker who talked to us about this place. We decided to check it out and ever since we have been coming to eat here almost every day. The food is amazing. We have eaten in many places in a the Zipolite area. El Ricon Del Café beats them all. The food is delicious with Oaxacan flavours. We have tried the shrimps, burgers, ribs, baguettes and breakfast. Every single item exceeded our expectations. Oaxacan restaurants tend to oversalt everything. El Rincón does not. We were pleasantly surprised to discover this. Everything was fresh and up to our standards. Besides the food being outstanding, it is very reasonably priced. We definitely recommend this place with a stunning view on the ocean, great service and family atmosphere. Best in...
