A great little pizza place, just a little off the beaten path. It's kitty corner to the kitty corner (Cat Cafe) in Oaxaca.

Really recommend eating here if you want something else than Mexican food. One of the best Italian places we have experienced in central and South America. Could open in Europe easily. Pizzas and pastas are both great!

Lovely space inside, surrounded by wine bottles and plants and awesome photographs hung up. The pizza was great, thin crust and very flavourful. Would recommend, decent pricing, the wine is a bit absurdly priced however.

We had a fabulous dinner on a slightly crisp late-November night on their veranda. What a beautiful setting! I ordered a pizza that came with anchovies and capers. I'm sure this is some sort of classic preparation but it came across as a bit salty. The pizza dough had the right balance of bite & chew such that it was both slightly crispy and chewy at the same time. The sauce and cheese components were just fine but I think the combination of anchovies and capers may have been the bridge too far. Great service from a young waiter who was attending college to be an administrator. After talking with him for a while, I have to believe that he will do well in life after college.
