Decided to pick this place to have a quick lunch and never expected to have such a bad customer service experience. Fist review ever but had to do this to help others avoid this and perhaps let the owner of this place know how people are treated. I walked in had a server (young lady) come and take my drink order and food order. Got my drink. My server was no where to be seen after this.After 10 mins or so a guy in a white shirt came out from the kitchen areas to ask me if I had ordered told him yes and I repeated my order to him. A few minutes after ANOTHER server (not the original girl who took my order) came to asked me my order AGAIN. At this point 2-3 tables had been served that arrived after I did. Finally my order came out. But still no chips or salsa that I had ordered with my drink as an appetizer.I had to ask them if they were out or what was going on with that. After noticing the server was MIA I asked the guy who was trying to make things better where my server had gone he informed me she was feeling sick and left for the day, I figured ok things happen... I patiently waited and ate... Finally I get my check and as I'm walking out I see my server sitting near thier lobby on her phone. Not once did she apologize for not placing my food order or even came to inform me that she had given another staff member the table. For whatever reason she simply refused to service me. If you want to be treated as if you are not a paying client test your luck but for the quality of the food I recommend going else where where people want your business. Customer service here is terrible and comical. I hope the owners of this place evaluate their staff. Never will come back to an environment like this. Go to a taco stand and get better...

We went for a late lunch at Fiesta Oxaca Saturday, 8.19.2023, Indian Market Saturday. We have been to Oxaca several times before this. The restaurant had been slammed for lunch, to be fair, but people were leaving when we arrived. A booth was cleared for us. However, we sat there for almost 10 minutes while a couple who came in after us were given water and menus. I finally asked their server if we could get a menu. He honestly glared at me. A different server did finally come to our booth and asked if we were ready to order. We said we needed a menu and water. He got us a menu and water as we watched the couple who arrived AFTER us were served their drink order, chips and salsa. Things did settle down. Mole chicken was good and tinga chicken tacos were flavorful but too watery. Rice was moist, flavorful, and had corn and peas mixed in. Black beans were refries and flavorful and the grated Cotija cheese on top was good. The chips served looked and tasted like cheap grocery store tortilla chips. Red and green salsas were served warm and were tasteless. I had to go to the register counter and ask a server who was scrolling through his phone for a water refill. He looked up, said O.K. and went back to his phone. This was same server who took care of the customers who came in after us. He finally brought us water refills after showing us he was more interested in his phone then serving us. My tip reflected the lackluster and indifferent service. We have lived in Santa Fe for 20 years. We won’t back to Oxaca, “fiesta,” indeed. The only fiesta was the SIESTA this one server...
