    Oaxaca is the best Mexican restaurant I've found in Europe. So we always go when we are in Barcelona.

    Excellent food and presentation. It took some time for our service to start, but once our drink order was placed, our servers were really attentive . We travel frequently to Mexico and loved this meal!

    The place is great! I come from a Mexican background and this was definitely authentic Mexican food! The only downside is that it is expensive, although all ingredients are fresh and premium I don’t know if we will be paying 28€ for 3 steak tacos again. Definitely a great experience if you are in Barcelona looking to get authentic Mexican food and great service. Just beware the prices are not Mexican ????

    The food is VERY overpriced for what it is. Cocktails are nice but can’t get over what they charge for the food , scandalous carry on. Much better value to be found elsewhere in the fabulous city.

    I had a great experience at the Oaxaca restaurant last night! The food was delicious and authentic, with plenty of flavorful options to choose from. The atmosphere was lively and fun, with great music and friendly service. I especially enjoyed the fresh guacamole and the delicious tacos. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a tasty and enjoyable dining experience

    We visited the restaurant for NYE offering a tasting menu and we were blown away by the flavors and creativity of the dishes. The staff was very friendly and attentive, we got a bag of festive supplies to properly celebrate the New Year, it was a really nice touch. The menu was really extensive and of a great value. The courses were a great combination of spicy and tangy, full of flavor. Overall, we had a very nice and festive experience and would recommend it to anyone looking for delicious and creative mexican cuisine.

    Its a typical tourist trap. Expensive and the food quality and taste isn’t reaching the level of the price. Don’t go if you are vegetarian or vegan, they offer only three starters for veggies and we got the story, the Mexican cuisine isn’t for vegetarians.

    Excellent as usual. I used to travel a lot to Mexico. Oaxaca is high quality and real Mexican food. Not cheap though.

    Good and real Mexican food. Pricy. 16€ for 3 oysters as a starter! If you are not a connaisseur, the explanations provided by the waitress are often too quick and unclear. However a very good experience.

    Really beautiful restaurant! All of our food and drinks were amazing! Margaritas a bit strong but delicious. They make the guacamole in front of you which was cool to watch but the guac server was so rude to us, so did not appreciate that. Overall a wonderful experience, definitely pricey Mexican food but great for a special night out!

    The restaurant was classy and sophisticated with a buzzy atmosphere. The food was tasty, elegantly served yet the timing of our courses was a little slow to arrive at the table. The cocktails were delicious! Overall the restaurant was very refined and pleasant for a couple, I wouldn’t go as a large group.

    You should always take into account while booking this place, that actually there are two places - a restaurant and a bar. The restaurant is closed during the day and you will be served limited choice of tacos and guacamole in the bar.

    The food is great but I would not recommend seating in the terrace. We had to as we were more than 6 persons and that was the limit to eat inside the restaurant.

    Good food & service but very overpriced. We had 2 cokes, 2 glasses of wine, 3 tacos each (2 were Soft Shell Crab) and another dish (I can’t remember what it was) & it was over €70. I live in Barcelona and eat out most nights but it was very expensive for not a lot of food/drinks
