The 21 Best Restaurants in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca | Eater

"Some say that if you didn’t go to El Cafecito, you didn’t go to Puerto Escondido. This place is a true icon, having indulged locals and visitors for 29 years. Having breakfast here while watching the picturesque Zicatela Beach in the early mornings is a classic experience: That’s why there’s always a long line outside. Once you make it inside, the chilaquiles in green sauce are a must, accompanied by hot coffee and freshly made bread. Open from Monday to Sunday from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. [$]" - Tirza Bonifazi

Very good breakfast spot. Cinnamon roll is very nice with raisins and nuts. Would recommend the pancakes over the French toast as the bread is a little heavy. Wait sounds long but had seating faster so wait close by even if they say 45 minutes.

The place was ok The tasajo, cactus and avocado were good The fruit was so fresh and the French toast fantastic! I love it when they use that kind of bread, it has the right amount of cinnamon and sugar, so yummy! The juices were fresh and really good

Worth the experience! Not the prettiest place but the food is excellent! And service is very good. It’s almost always busy but worth going anyway!

We waited way too long for our food, and when it finally arrived it was cold. I mentioned it to the waitress, and unfortunately her response felt dismissive, like she didn’t really care. The place has a nice atmosphere, but the service and food temperature really ruined the experience. Hopefully management takes this seriously because it could be a great spot if they improve customer service.

I got Al Verde Mas and oat meal/almond/bananas breakfast. It was good but my partner didn't like what he ordered. And the ambiance wasn't there.

Went there for dinner 2 times. Good traditional food, big portions and good prices for the amount of food. Has vegetarian options. There was always a line, for dinner I recommend going before 19:00 so you get a seat faster.

Food here was absolutely amazing and the wait time was completely worth it. Service was fast and filled with a great energy environment. We were able to see the staff joking around and dancing having a great time. The food speaks for itself self as the flavors are stunning. They accept bank cards here which was a great plus. Parking was plentiful and easy to find. Definitely found a go to spot

Best dinner we had at Puerto Escondido...The camaron- a la Diabla and Arrachera Fajitas hit perfectly. SUPER FAST SERVICE!! Benito provided amazing service.
