Restaurants near Motel King Kong

Beautiful dining patio with lovely service (both in English and Spanish). The drink pairing was interesting with different types of alcohol such as Cava, Mexican sake, beer, tequila and a gin & ginger cocktail. Original choices and all went well with the delicious food. At one point the courses came a little bit too quickly after one another but after we asked to slow down a bit they were flexible and immediately slowed down. The umami soft shell crab with mole taco was our favorite as well as the tamales filled with guava with herbal yoghurt ice cream. We also tasted a bunch of new regional fruits and vegetables - all in all a great experience and well worth the money!

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner on the rooftop. Gorgeous setting next to the main temple! We ordered mezcal cocktails, the tomato and burrata salad, the quesadilla, and the short rib entrée. Everything was delicious and without a single flaw. They surprised us by mixing up a fresh salsa in a molcajete at the table. Got to try fried grasshoppers -a salty ingredient in the salsa if you prefer. Do not miss this opportunity when in Oaxaca!

Beautiful terrace (the full moon helped!) And really delicious food

We decided to give this place a shot to break from Oaxacas food (delicious, but too many days), even though is a tad far from downtown. We really loved it! Seafood was fresh and delicious and recipes were very original. Dishes show care and attention to detail. Service is the best we’ve encountered in Oaxaca so far. Definitely worth it!!
