Ruta Oaxaca means “Road to Oaxaca,” a historic state in the southern part of Mexico.

    It was our second time there in the past week. Hadn’t been there for awhile and went with our friends that never ate there. Everyone loved it and went back last night. Food and service were excellent and reminded us we love it there and will be back more often. The lobster Il Toscano over angle hair is amazing along with everything else. Most important is that Alex and everyone working there are very attentive, professional and show they value their customers.
