Mariscos Marco Polo: Incredible seafood
jakelorenzo Says: The entire restaurant is set in a lush courtyard across from Parque Paseo Juarez. Ice cold beer is served in chilled mugs. Seven different seafood cocktails. Incredible soups. Whole fish are brought to your table for selection and then cooked in a wood-burning outdoor oven....
Comedor Mary: If You Like Quesadillas
jakelorenzo Says: This roadside stand is nestled on the left side of the highway as you return from Ocotlan to Oaxaca City. The ambience is negligible: a few metal tables and chairs, a cold box for the beer and soft drinks and a small kitchen where Mary makes the best quesadillas you will...
El Meson: Great Place for Late Lunch or Early Dinner
jakelorenzo Says: Owned by the same people who run Asador Vasco, this place is definitely downscaled. You check off what you want on a paper order form, mark how many orders of each thing you'd like, and then, if you are sitting at the counter, you can watch the chef make it for you. They...
A Wonderful Typical Oaxacan Restaurant

jakelorenzo Says: To get around Oaxaca, see the various historical sites, visit artists in their homes or make a day of mezcal tasting, it is best to have a driver. Our favorite driver is Miguel Gaytan. His cell phone number in Oaxaca is 0449-54-78-280. He has a great sense of humor, drives...
jakelorenzo Says: While there are some great places to shop in Oaxaca City like Mano Magica at Alcala 203 and ARIPO onGarcia Virgil 809, the real fun is to get out to the villages. Call Miguel (see transportation tips) and have him take you to the artist's homes. Atzompa is known for the...
Casadecolores Says: It's pretty hard to choose one favorite thing about a place like Oaxaca, but the fabled traditional markets are probably number one in my book. If you stay near the zocalo you are within walking distance of two of Mexico's finest markets. Mercado Juarez sells foods like...
