Nos encontramos a 15 minutos del centro histórico.

Un lugar para abandonarse en los sencillos y cotidianos placeres de la buena mesa. Los diferentes espacios juegan con la luz al tono que tu ánimo elige: un soleado jardín, un cobertizo acogedor, una sombreada pérgola.

Very quiet place, servers are friendly upon arrival. They answer every question I had and knowledgeable regarding the origins of certain dishes. The mole tasting is a must, sample all 7 and then choose the one you prefer to order a dish.

Had a lovely bday dinner here. Great view from the terrace and the staff is great. My short rib was a little on the dry side but aside from that it was delicious

Really enjoyed the mole tasting and the explanation provided by our waiter. Food was good - my wife and I had five of the moles between us. She loved the mole with beef tongue.

I had to choose between Pitiona and Los Danzantes. I ended up choosing Pitiona because they didn't require a credit card deposit at the time of reservation. I came here to celebrate my cousin's 60th birthday. It was absolutely perfect: elegant, excellent customer service, refreshing drinks, and an extremely delicious dinner. I got the fish, my cousin got the chicken mole, my husband got the tuna with risotto, and my cousin's wife got steak. The chef sent us a complimentary seafood soup (in a little cup); it was super tasty. Everything we ate was DREAMY. We will visit them again if we go back to the historic center of Oaxaca. If I could give it more stars I would. DELICIOSO!
