Oaxaca ATL

Oaxaca Restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience with delicious, authentic Mexican cuisine and warm, attentive service. The flavors are rich and fresh, and the staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Highly recommended!

Came here to try the squash blossom quesadilla. I added steak which helped but it was just ok. I enjoyed the french toast. However, if a came back then I would order something else. They have a huge patio so I might try this place again in the summer.

Such a unique menu, so refreshing to see creativity and quality in the selection. Food was fantastic and amazing mezcal selection. Can’t wait to go back and try some of their other dishes and cocktails!

Loved the atmosphere and dined on the patio. Burrito De Langostinos was good but full of rice really, a few shrimp are buried inside.

The food was nothing special. Expensive for the portion size. The service was wimpy. Took forever to take appetizer plates. Bowl was cracked. Water bottles were dirty. Center lamp had salsa on it. Ambiance was nice, but music way too loud. Hope they make it.

Litcy is so sweet and will help you decide by her accuracy of descriptions after inquiring your tastes and dietary restrictions! The herb guac 🥑 is not to be missed if you like tarragon and if you like your tacos 🌮 “skinny” just order as they come and the meat and toppings of 2 can be eaten out of the soft corn shell and is enough with the guacamole to fill you up sans carbs! The food arrived so fast and the greenery and sunlight on the patio was perfect early evening ambiance!

Came for brunch and we enjoyed it. Service was prompt and friendly. We got the ribeye Bonilla sandwich and enchiladas divorcadas, both were so good. If craving a hearty breakfast/ brunch sandwich definitely try it!

Lunch at Oaxaca is the chef’s kiss. Attentive service and a relaxed but beautiful atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot to catch up with a friend or in our case, celebrate a birthday! We had a large sampling of their lunch menu which included tacos, steak tlayuda, and tres leches French toast. Everything was fantastic but our favorite lunch item was the ceviche of poached shrimp; it was so fresh and well balanced with lime juice, tomatoes, onions, and peppers. The accompanying house made chips provided the perfect texture to enjoy our ceviche with. The owner, Caesar, was so friendly and we enjoyed chatting with him about his space and menu. He was so sweet to let us sample a new corn bread that they were putting on the menu, which paired perfectly with a cafe de olla. Highly recommend!

Went for Saturday lunch, and was pretty quiet--love the interior decor and ambience, with the plants and fresh wooden feel. I had the fried fish tacos and churros for dessert, both of which were delicious! The fish was very flaky and tender, and I enjoyed the unique sauce it came with. The churros are always a favorite, and the dust coating is a nice addition. Our server was attentive and efficient, and our food came out pretty fast. This was our second time here, and we would be back to support this local business!

Was excited to try this cute restaurant and because I hadn't had Oaxacan food for about a year since I last went to Mexico! Love the decor - great for a date or a cute girls brunch or dinner. Service was fine - not great but not bad, wished our waitress was a bit more attentive bc there were times where we wanted to catch her but she was nowhere to be found. Went during Saturday lunch and it was about 75% full. We didn't have reservations and were seated promptly. We ordered the hamachi crudo, steak sandwich, pork belly memela, and churros. The hamachi crudo was very fresh & tasty with thick pieces of tender fish. Quite acidic so fyi if you don't like that flavor! Husband was disappointed at how thin the pieces of steak were & how little meat was in the sandwich but enjoyed the potatoes on the side. My pork belly itself was flavorful and tender but the memela was a bit thick, dry, and not as flavorful as expected compared to what I had in Oaxaca, Mexico. Churros were good and not too sweet!! Loved the chocolate dip.

Went for lunch and it was quite empty We ordered chicken soup and it was quite bland The chicken mole tacos were good but it took an hour for them to bring those in and a quick workday lunch took an hour and a half . The waitresses seemed clueless. This is the second time I have been there and we also noticed then service was slow . Quite a contrast to the decatur restaurant Ny same owners

Great margaritas, guacamole, and service! Had the Spicy Shrimp Ceviche which lacked salt and spice. The Steak Quesadilla comes with a cheese that was clumpy by the time they served it and an uncooked corn tortilla. The quesadilla was not grilled, the cheese was not melty, and the steam was room temperature at best. Sadly, this was a one and done for me....

Another great meal. Branzino, Duck Tacos, Brussel Sprouts, and Mushrooms. No pictured we got the Meringue for dessert. Yummy!

Amazing mezcal based drinks, modern classy ambiance, and delicious tacos! Highly recommend.

I found the service here to be simply exceptional! Timely, attentive and Jessie was on point. We started with the ceviche. For $18 it was a decent portion and very flavorful. I liked the Serrano peppers in it. The guacamole is a small serving and super excessive at $18. I think they need to take a look at their pricing based on serving size. I had the fish taco which was good. Again $8 is pricey given the area + portion size. $5-$6 is more reasonable as it's a mini ish taco. The fish was bland so I asked for some peppers - the charge was $1.50 for that but helped with the blandness so I didn't mind. The mezcal drink was good but as a light weight I judge on the first drink and I wasn't the least bit feeling it. The churros were interesting with the corn husk but I would rate a 1/5. My dinner companion enjoyed them but I wasn't a fan. Absolutely beautiful interior and the outdoor patio makes you feel like you're on a tropical island. Overall great experience. Not sure if I'd return as I think while beautiful, the pricing is high relative to what one receives.

I came here on a Tuesday evening. I made reservations, but they really weren't needed. We were the only people in the restaurant for most of the time we were there lol. The space is huge! With inside and outside options. Outside would be amazing for a day with good weather. The decor is beautiful and has such a nice ambience. Perfect space for date night or a celebration of some sort. Our waitress was sweet and she explained the concept and interesting restaurant facts. We arrived just in time for happy hour which allowed us to try a few appetizers and get two drinks. OMG The margarita is STRONG. Honestly, I had to let it sit for a sec to get watered down just a bit because even though I'm a huge margarita fan and tequila fan, it was a bit much for me. What was interesting was that they have a Taco Tuesday special. I didn't see that anywhere online and the place gives me fine dining vibes so I wasn't expecting to see that, but it was a welcome surprise. For food we had the flautas, guacamole, and I had the fish tacos and esquites. The flautas were just ok. I wasn't a fan of the potato taste. Guacamole was great. It has cashews in it, which is different, but it was very flavorful and had a variety of textures. I also enjoyed my fish tacos and esquites. I would probably visit this restaurant more often, but it is on the price your side so for me it would most likely be a visit for a special occasion.

Cocktails here are very good. Our waiter was great. Very attentive and extremely polite. The food tastes pretty good but the main reason for my three star review is because of how expensive this place is. I do not think the food is worth the price. The $65 rib eye lacked salt but was cooked to my liking. Desserts were just okay. I did not like the churros.

We had a table for 2 at 5:30 pm on Tuesday, 2/6/24. Free parking in the Attiva garage behind the restaurant. It was early, so we were seated right away! Service was great. Stephanie was our waitress and she was wonderful. Cool lighting, nice ambiance. I would say it's good for a date night if you're not paying. We split 2 appetizers and a side, and each got 2 tacos. Here's what I had: - Herb Guacamole ($18): Decent portion, but $18 seems excessive. - Elote ($8): Very good!! Perfectly seasoned. - Papas Bravas ($10): $10 seems excessive, but they were good. Crispy on the outside, with cotija cheese generously sprinkled over. - Carne Asada Taco (normally $8, $6 on Taco Tuesday: Fine. - Al Pastor Taco ($6 on Taco Tuesday): Not as much flavor as I would've liked. The salsa that came on the side (I put it on both tacos) was very flavorful, but spicy. Overall, great service, with average food at a high price. Nice to try once, but I don't feel the need to go back.

Discovering Oaxaca was a blessing! The Hamachi Crudo Aquachile was a refreshing starter, and a Flor Calabaza Quesadilla was my main course, and finally a delicious Deconstructed Corn Husk Meringue for dessert. The food was delicious and the staff was amazing. Loved dining on the patio around the plants:) Angie even came to check and make sure I loved my meal:)

One of our favorite elevated Mexican restaurants. They probably have the best and prettier guacamole in town! The chicken soup is so good!!!

Chamblee and the Atlanta metro area as a whole possess a ton of casual, no frills places serving authentic bites, but few offer more composed and regional focused dishes in an appealing setting. Oaxaca ranks among the few to do the latter, which led my wife and I to try it out on a recent weekend dinner. The restaurant is located on the ground floor of a large mixed residential and retail complex. A garage around the corner of the restaurant contains ample parking. The ambiance here feels open and industrial, with furnishings such as basket lamps and wicker chairs adding to the unique vibe. We found service here excellent, with staff possessing a great knowledge of the menu and acting attentively throughout our meal. The highlight of our dinner came with our first courses. Our favorite bite of the evening was the tetela de pato. This dish, described as a take on a tamale, comprised tender duck encased in moist masa dough and dressed with the perfect amount of rich, and not-too-sweet tamarind mole. The textures and flavors all worked quite well. We also liked the hamachi tostada with sashimi quality fish seasoned well with lime and chili. The salsas, served with high quality chips, made for pleasant munching but felt spicy pricey at $10. Our main courses fared less well than the appetizers. We opted for the octopus huarache and the pork belly gorditas. The former brought an ample quantity of tender tentacles atop a thick, masa flatbread spread with mashed potatoes and served alongside a green mole. While the concept intrigued, the dish suffered from a lack of flavor in that the bland mashed potatoes and masa base made for a boring bite despite ample dousings of the mole and salsas. The pork belly gordita fared better with tender, rich meat and good seasoning, but felt more akin to what one would find up the road at the excellent but low key taquerias rather than a finer dining dish. Ultimately, the food at Oaxaca merits a visit for fans of authentic Mexican food in nicer than usual environs. Higher end prices and some lackluster items may prevent us from returning soon, but the restaurant is worth a try for some unique bites in a sit down atmosphere.

Came here on a date night, and honestly I'm glad I got to try this place out! The food was great, service was great, ambiance was casual. Seats meh. The seating is plentiful for sure and parking was a breeze. You can park in the deck and then walk into the restaurant. I got to try a variety of dishes and by the end of it I was super full. If you're looking for a different experience rather than just your quick tacos, but want a higher class type of experience I would recommend Oaxaca. I can see myself coming back here to try their brunch. The service was top notch.

My go to for taco Tuesday. The best, most tender steak tacos of any taco spot that I've tried (and I've tried most of them). Everything I've had there seems very high quality. Their guac and then their chips and salsa are one of my favorites. One last thing ask for their black garlic aioli and put that on the steak tacos. It's life changing.

The restaurant boasts a charming ambiance and attentive staff. My wife savored a fresh and creamy horchata, while I relished the perfectly balanced Vida Oaxaca cocktail, showcasing just the right amount of mezcal. However, the culinary experience fell short. While the handmade tortillas were commendable and the ingredients fresh, the seasoning lacked the boldness expected from a place named Oaxaca. The tlayuda lacked the signature asiento flavor, and the quesadilla begged for more epazote and quesillo, with a discernible absence of cheese. The disappointment peaked with the salsas. Despite being touted as the spiciest options, neither the chile de árbol nor the habanero salsa lived up to expectations. The lazy choice of using mayo instead of confit chiles was not only a departure from tradition but also rendered the salsa less spicy and downright disgusting as a tableside salsa, unfit for anything other than street corn. The tatemada salsa offered little reprieve, resembling bottled texmex salsa. Only the guacamole salsa accompanying the quesadilla managed to salvage some flavor, albeit lacking in heat. Would I revisit? Unlikely. While the drinks may tempt a return, the inflated prices coupled with lackluster seasoning and dismal salsa options leave much to be desired.

Oaxaca has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in the area! The food, service, and ambience are always incredible. I have been several times, each time trying something different, and I've never been disappointed! I love this place!! I truly believe the attention that Oaxaca puts into the quality of their food and service is what really makes them shine. The staff is knowledgeable about their menu and is always willing to provide suggestions as needed. In particular, David (we've had him as our waiter a couple of times!) has been consistently passionate, attentive, and helpful whenever we visited! He has really added to the whole experience!! In addition to the restaurant being visually beautiful, the food is truly unmatched. You can taste how authentic everything and their masa comes directly from Oaxaca. I will continue to rave about how good this place is! I can't stop going. Looking forward to enjoying their brunch next! Happy Eating!!

We tried the hamachi crudo, cochinita pibil tacos, and gorditas de chorizo y papa. The hamachi crudo was my favorite with its nice presentation with fresh flavors. We also had the churros. I like the charred corn husk. We couldn't finish the 4 churros so we took the rest home. They reheat well in the air fryer. The chocolate sauce was not sweet at all. Our server, David, was great. He made it a great dinner experience for us.

We went after work on a Friday. Ample garage parking that's free. The ambiance is great. We were surprised that it was not very crowded on a Friday night. They do have an outside patio that's nice. They have unisex bathrooms that were very clean. Our bartender, Daniel, was great. Drinks were good. The food was just ok. I'd go back for the drinks and the vibe.

Serving size for Mexican is really small. Price is too high for what you get. The corn is interesting but not that interesting. The ambience is nice. Service is good but price is too high. The margaritas were good, Not too sweet.

Location/Parking - the front door is facing Peachtree, so it's a great location. The parking deck is easy to access and there's plenty for the retail/office - just follow the signage and you can't miss it! Service - our server's name was Christian! He was very personable. He answered our questions and even recommended a favorite among some of the more regional-specific dishes. Ceviche de Camaron - it was so fresh and flavorful! Tetela de Pato - I'd never had (or heard of) a tetela before, but it was a corn masa pocket. It was similar to tamales, but the shape was a triangle instead of a tubular shape. The mole it came with was also delicious. I'm not a mole lover; I usually find it too sweet or chocolatey for my taste, but this one was smokey, tasted like chiles, and wasn't very sweet. For my entree, I got the Birria de Res. It was soooo tender. I would have added a bit of salt (personal preference), but it really was seasoned extremely well. Five stars to this new restaurant! Thanks to the whole team for the excellent service and meal. I will definitely be back!

I was looking for a place to have lunch and stumbled across Oaxaca. They have free parking in the garage behind the restaurant. We did not have a reservation, but were able to walk in and get a table. The ambiance is a rustic look and goes with the theme of the restaurant. They have indoor and covered patio seating. Our server David was EXCELLENT! He went over the menu with us and explained each item we asked about. We ordered the Clandestina and Og Mezcal Margarita for drinks. For food we got the Elote, Dobladitas de Pato, and Carnitas de Pato. The Elote was BOMB! And the rest of the food was delicious as well. I will definitely be back!

Extreme lack of vegan options. I've been twice and everything I've gotten is pretty subpar, and the service is slow. Over an hour for food to come and unattentive service staff. Maybe an omnivore would have a better experience.

Truly like visiting Oaxaca! The decor is clean and simple, raw woods with clean lines, plants for an earthy feel mixed with a slight industrial feel. Comfortable seats too. Started with a Paloma cocktail which was delicious then the hamachi starter and guacamole which looked as beautiful as it tasted! Like a little garden:) we also had the steak tostado which was cooked to perfection and perfect amount. Wonderful service, sweet and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!

Came here a couple weeks ago with some friends for dinner. We made a reservation to sit inside although I wish we'd done the outdoor patio because it was so cute! We started with drinks - they have a great cocktail menu! I got the classic margarita, but would love to come back to try others. I got the carnitas de pato quesadilla and it was so delicious! They have a unique menu and everyone loved what they got!

We always love to eat authentic food from our country. As Mexican I've been searching for good Mexican flavors in Atlanta. Oaxaca offers authentic flavor from the Mexican state of Oaxaca located in the south part of the country. The place is nice and very clean. Our server was really nice and always ready to explain any dish or make suggestions. The ceiling is very tall and that makes the place really noisy. The sound bounces everywhere and at some point it's difficult to hear the other people in your table. I think they really need to fix this. The food was outstanding. The Tetelas as an appetizer are delicious and authentic. We also ordered pipián and the flor de calabaza quesadilla. Both were good and authentic. Their tortillas taste like Mexico. They bring the corn from Oaxaca and make the nixtamal process and grind the kernels to make tortilla dough. Amazing. BUT....... The alcohol is super expensive. We are foodies we don't drink too much and we never pay the same amount for drinks and food. We were four on the table. We ordered 4 cocktails and 4 glasses of wine. The cocktails were really good but the amount served per glass doesn't match the price at all. All were very well presented but with liquid and ice filling was half small glasses. Probably it's the smallest margarita I've ever seen in a Mexican restaurant. We had 4 glasses of wine (standard tall glass) and those were 100 dlls on the check. The food was excellent, the food price was fair and reasonable. But the alcohol is ridiculously expensive. Be careful. Ask the price of the wine glass before order.

Delicious food, unique dishes, very fresh, cocktails are good. Service was excellent, a little loud.

Food 4/5: tastes decent, quantity poor, price high Service 5/5: great! Ambiance 5/5: tasteful yet simple decor, nice outdoor patio Overall: Would come back to enjoy the patio

We went in for a quick bite but it turned out to be a 2 hour dinner that we weren't expecting. It was good overall but just know it's not a quick walk in type of place and need a reservation to be seated. Parking wise, you can park in the guest/retail parking in the Attiva complex for free. For a soft opening, everything was great! Service was tad over the top but David did a great job with the descriptions and recommendations. My favorites were all corn related. Elote and the deconstructed corn mousse was amazing! I would just come back for the dessert! I was especially sold on the part where David told us that it was only 60 calories. Hard to believe but ill eat it regardless! The steak tlayuda was delicious with melted cheese, avocados, and dry peppers for some heat and flavor! While the chicken was tender on the Pollo a la leno, I needed little more flavor and this is where I was kind of upset. We had ordered salsa and I wanted to keep the sauces but the server took it stating that the meals came with the sauces. While it did, it wasn't the same sauces that I originally had so I would put your foot down when they ask to take away the salsa. Drink wise, we had ordered the zero proof drinks. I'm not a huge fan of blueberry or cucumber but the the drink with the cucumber was tastier and cucumber flavor was very faint. Overall, I would come back to try other dishes and it reminded me of a relaxed Palo Santos type of place.

Excellent, upscale Mexican food! I was caught a little off guard by the prices, which seemed awfully high for the area, but we had a really nice meal here. Their patio is beautiful and service was SO excellent and attentive. We ordered several drinks, two appetizers (highly recommend the ceviche!) and four entrees and were blown away by how good everything was. The highlight of the night for me was my dinner--the two gringuitas al pastor with homemade salsa. They also provided a very nice birthday dessert for us as one member of our party was celebrating a birthday.

Visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this restaurant... the place feels very cozy and the hosts were very welcoming and friendly... the food was amazing from the starters drinks and main entry i would definitely come back when in town our server maritza provided amazing costumer service the suggestions on what to eat and was super attentive 10/10

I met up with some friends for a celebratory dinner in Chamblee, and Oaxaca did not disappoint. The food from the Oaxaca region was new to all of us, and we were excited to try it. Our server, Christian was very familiar with the menu and made some great recommendations for us. We ordered a variety of items to try. My personal favorite menu selection was the Flor De Calabaza. Everything on the menu is marked well for food allergies. I also had a fabulous Mocktail. If you are looking for the traditional American version of Mexican food, then this is not the restaurant for you. But, if you want to experience authentic Oaxaca, new flavors with an amazing, friendly staff - then I highly recommend this unique culinary experience.

Absolutely loved it !! Visited with a friend, I had a rising sun cocktail which was delicious. We had shrimp ceviche as an appetizer. A steak tlayuda and birria for main course, and lastly a strawberry tamal for dessert. Everything was amazing! Service was great.

The staff is wonderful, but this is definitely a one time thing. The intention is there but definitely need to work on authenticity of the food Oaxaca offers. I know not to expect authentic quality, however the menu isn't even close. We ordered the Obesesion and Cuevas Peligrosas the tequila/mezcala overpowered the fresh flavors it was supposed to bring. I probably wouldn't come again unless they changed their menu.

Oaxaca is the most beautifully decorated restaurant with amazing and fresh Mexican food. The staff is insanely knowledgeable about the menu, the origins of the food, etc. Oaxaca actually imports most of their ingredients straight from Oaxaca, Mexico! The pollo de tinga tacos were so saucy and flavorful. It also came with a side of salsa, so really no need to order the salsa trio as an app! The restaurant itself is gorgeous. The rattan chairs, weaved lamp shades, and tropical plants everywhere make you feel as though you've been transported to another world outside of Atlanta. One of my new favorite ATL spots for sure.

What can I say this place is soooo good!! It is in the mod pricey range so be prepared. It's worth it!! Salsas are delicious. Could have done without the creamy avocado one. It didn't have too much flavor. We got the Hamachi Tostado, Salsas, Pescado Zarandeado, Papas Bravas and Carnitas De Pato. Delicious, go check them out!!!

Was very impressed with The entirety of our experience! Atmosphere inside looked great but we were dining with a baby so we opted for the patio. The great thing about the patio is that it's completely covered, so when severe weather struck while we were there nobody was stuck under umbrellas running inside. They simple shut the 3 huge garage doors that can open or close to air out or completely close up the space as needed. We were most impressed by the temperature. It's the dead middle of summer in Georgia and it was nice and cool on the patio. Why? The countless fans they have mounted up top for industrial airflow. The service was perfect. There was extra management overseeing every interaction and checking in to ensure things were running smoothly too. The only complaint was that they were so focused on pre bussing and ensuring tables were clear that more than once they took away unfinished plates or drinks from our table. The food was all great. Some a little more "worth the price" than others but we enjoyed everything. The elote was honestly the best part for me. It was perfectly seasoned, and could have eaten two! We both felt drinks were a bit over priced for the serving size. For $14 the cocktails were over large ice cubes in half filled glasses. The presentation was nice but I'd take a beer or water over paying for a couple sips (max) in one of the margaritas next time. Really enjoyed. Looking forward to returning.

We came here for lunch one day and really enjoyed it. This is definitely more upscale than other Mexican restaurants in the area. They use authentic ingredients and cooking techniques and really explain the menu well. The food was delicious! I found our server to be super nice, attentive, and did a great job telling us about the dishes. We sat inside but the outside patio looks large and nice when the weather is good. We saw a kid here and I think they would accommodate kids - but as someone with young kids myself I may not bring them to a dinner here. Lunch maybe. It's a bit pricey but I don't think over-priced. Will v

Great brunch! This tasted amazing and was the perfect blend of flavors. Not too sweet just right

Wonderful addition to the neighborhood with a light airy space with lots of windows and a pretty bar area. There's plenty of outdoor seating where you'll be surrounded by lush plants. The food uses more traditional oaxacan ingredients with inventive new twists. The guacamole is full of herbs and looks like a piece of art with edible flowers. The churros were a standout with corn husk ash dusted on top for unique charred flavor on the sweet dessert completed with chocolate dipping sauce. I'm excited to return and try more of the menu!

It's trendy but not for everyone. Portions we got are small and the food is not mainstream so you need to have an open palate. The pork belly for example is not fried and she hated the "soggy" version they brought. Personally I am not that adventurous and I prefer larger portions so it is not my speed. Again of you like to try new pricey meals it should work fine.

Service was top notch - every associate in the restaurant was friendly and helpful. Our server Carla was lovely. Almost the entire menu is gluten free, with the exception of any menu items that have NGF next to it (about 3 main entrees from the menu). Bathrooms are bright and clean. Food was fresh and fast; very tasty. Overall great experience!

Another beautiful restaurant that lacks quality food. We've been waiting for this Mexican restaurant to open for about 6 months now. My family and I went with high expectations. While the service was definitely up to par, the food didn't measure up. We ordered the elote and the guacamole to start. The corn was probably the best thing we had during our time there, highly recommend. The guacamole was decent, very fresh - maybe missing a bit of seasoning. My fish tacos were terrible, there was entirely too much batter and again a lack of seasoning. I should've opted for a fish that wasn't fried. My cousin wasn't impressed by her burrito and my other cousin wasn't impressed by her adobo steak quesadilla. I will say that the cocktails were absolutely amazing. The mezcal margaritas were mixed and poured to perfection!

Food was great, prices were a little silly. Very expensive Mexican food. With tip, bill was around $320 for 4 adults. Food and cocktail serving sizes are small. They fill their glasses up halfway. I'll likely come back, but not for just a casual meal.

Ambiance, service and cocktails were definitely outstanding. I had high expectations for this restaurant, but unfortunately I was not impressed with the food. I ordered a cafe de olla, Hamachi Crudo, gorditas de chorizo y papa and papas bravas. The masa on the gorditas was dry and flavors could have been richer. Will definitely return and try other dishes.

Fantastic service and the food is so fresh! Definitely more traditional Mexican food and not anywhere near Americanized. If you aren't used to this kind of cuisine, Google and the servers is your best bet for an amazing meal. Take their recommendations! Also make sure to make a reservation in advance.

Excellent flavors from Oaxaca. From the fresh masa and spices brought in from Mexico to the hand made tortillas, the flavors from each dish are amazing. The hamachi crudo, hamachi tostada, shrimp ceviche, branzino, carne asada and half or whole chicken are a must try. Great flavors in each and every dish. The duck was amazing as well. I've been at least 4 times now since they recently opened. Happy to hear that they are now open for lunch. From a service standpoint they are doing pretty well for only being open for several weeks now. The service is however, dare I say, a little to aggressive and over the top at times as on at least two different dining visits with a group, we were interrupted a little too often while we all were conversing amongst each other. Additionally, plates were taken away a little too quickly even when there was still food to be had. A little bit more wait staff training will however fix these issues. As for adult beverages, they have quite a few craft cocktails that will please any cocktail aficionado. The cocktails are well thought out and balanced, not too sweet. The drink called Obsession was my favorite although several others came a close second. As for dessert to end the night, the churros are done perfectly. I also tried a corn based dessert, deconstructed corn husk meringue and the tres leche. All three desserts had great presentation and great flavors. Can't wait for spring time as they have a huge patio that will be a perfect spot to have a nice cold beverage. Looking forward to the next visit, Oaxaca. Welcome to the neighborhood!

Food is delicious. The staff is excellent. The cocktails are superb. Overall experience is worth the cost and/or wait. My favorite Mexican restaurant.

This is a good date night spot. Food was good, cocktails were great, nice ambience. No complaints with service either. Unfortunately, I think the pricing is out of control. One cocktail (singles) costs around what I would expect to pay for an entree at a Mexican restaurant. The cocktails were excellent, I would recommend the Atlanta Peachtree or the OG Mezcal Margarita. I would come back here just for cocktails. The entrees are very pricey for Mexican food. The food was good, but nowhere near good enough to justify that price. Tacos are tiny. 2 people getting 2 cocktails a piece, an appetizer and an entree ~$140. For the food quality I could go to any Mexican Restaurant down the street for under $50. I'd come back and recommend Oaxaca, but just not often due to the cost.
