"Is there a cooler restaurant in Puerto Escondido? Channeling the sleekness of a Japanese zen garden, the outdoor space is picture-perfect and built out with handsome wood beams, a backlit bar, and an old tree that stretches across the dining room. The cooking is familiar fare, seasoned and presented with the right amount of care: Crisp tostadas stacked with pan-fried ribeye, squares of tuna rolled in sesame seeds, and vibrant salsas that upgrade everything they touch. You could make a meal out of the appetizers alone or press on with a chile relleno stuffed with vegetables and blanketed in a smooth manzano pepper sauce. Though the cocktail offerings are succinct and stick largely to the classics, the bartenders shake and stir with notable skill." - Michelin Inspector

Excellent place for a special dinner in Puerto Escondido. The food is delicious with a lot attention to detail - especially the seafood stuffed poblano pepper!! Also the cocktails are great. The price is higher than the average in Puerto Escondido, but it's totally worth it. Also the atmosphere is great with dark lights and music in the perfect volume.

The seafood tlayuda here (more of a fusion dish than a traditional tlayuda) is fantastic! Others dishes were OK to very good, although not particularly memorable. Cocktails were solid, and the atmosphere is incredible—definitely a beautiful spot for a date night or special occasion. I found the prices surprisingly affordable for the type of clientele they’re catering too, but still a bit higher than most places in Puerto.

First off Miguel was the best server. He was very patient with our Spanish and gave us some great recommendations. We’ve been here twice now and each experience was perfect. The food is reasonably priced and filling. They have a drink on their menu called the Tepachito, get it. It’s the most refreshing beverage I’ve ever had. Also their house mezcal with chapulines and salts are so damn good. We got the tlayudas and aguachile one night and the pulpo and huitlacoche tostado the other night. Delicious. Great ambiance and vibe. Love that they are serving traditional Mexican dishes, some with a twist. If you want refined Mexican food, this is your place. While there is a lot of great Mexican food here in Puerto Escondido, it won’t be in such a beautiful restaurant like this or with of great of service. As far as best Mexican restaurants in town, this wins by a large margin. There are nicer restaurants in town but they are serving more European food. The adherence to Mexican tradition makes Atarraya shine.

Simply incredible. This place has great food for sure but the people that work there make it special. Top notch service! Long story short; go! Very very well deserving of its spot in Michelin Guide.

Accidentally stumbled upon this place and after a quick online search it was reported to have earned a michelin star in 2024 but my wife and I struggled to see why. The dishes were creative but missed the mark in our opinion. I am a firm believer that seafood dishes, ESPECIALLY tacos should be served with a wedge of citrus be it line or lemon and they did not provide this with any of the 3 seafood items we ordered and believe me when I say that they really could have used a squeeze to make the dishes pop. both the shrimp and fish tacos were very underwhelming. The goat cheese salad was nice but I've had better and the catch if the day, though cooked perfectly and served in a tasty sauce was pretty good, could have used a little citrus and some sort of accoutrement to soak the sauce up with. I feel like fish dishes need a starch to accompany them and is something you find pretty consistently across the globe but was only served with 3 colored baby carrots. Did not bother with dessert as the 4 items we had did not give us confidence that they'd win us over with their sweet offerings which did not seem exciting anyhow based on their descriptions. The atmosphere and music were lovely but those don't do jack for my taste buds

My favorite bite in Puerto Escondido. The tomato salad was fresh and flavorful, and I enjoyed the quesadilla de huitalacoche and xochitl mezcal cocktail

EDITED: Review adjusted from 1 star to 3 star to account for the fact that restaurant attempted to make things right by offering a free dinner for 2 on our next visit. However, we were leaving the next day so instead they refunded 50% of the dinner. While the NYE dinner was still a bad value even at 50% off, we appreciate the restaurant’s attempt to make things right. ——————————— The New Years Eve dinner was unfortunately quite forgettable and significantly overpriced for the quality at 2,500 pesos per person. The mushroom tacos appeared to be uncooked, grocery store mushrooms, thinly sliced and lazily placed on a store bought tortilla. The shrimp on the shrimp tacos tasted frozen and very fishy. The tortillas were once again not fresh. The fish was overcooked and the sauce was quite average. While likely the best dish of the night it was far from anything memorable and only the “best” because the tacos were borderline inedible. The desert was basic and something I’d expect to find in an airport lounge. All four courses were bland and lacked any basic creativity. This is quite disappointing from a restaurant on the Michelin guide and at this price point. One wonders if their normal menu is totally different in terms of quality, taste and skill but the NYE pre-fixe left a lot to be desired. Cool venue tho! Anyways, happy new year!

Was very excited for this spot but unfortunately it was quite forgettable. The menu is unique, varied and well-priced. However, the food was hit and miss - the seafood stuffed peppers came with a squid ink and white wine sauce; the sauce tasted no different to water. Similarly there’s a dessert billed as a chocolate mousse. It’s not a mousse, it’s a jelly. It didn’t taste of chocolate (like the white wine sauce, it didn’t taste of much at all). On the flip side, the tacos were excellent - especially the short rib and fish. The staff and settings are great.
