La Carta de Oaxaca
La Carta de Oaxaca (translation: the menu of Oaxaca) is a knock-back-a-brew-and-a-bite snack shop offering delicious, clean-tasting flavors and an authentic taste of Mexico - from picaditas to posole, molotes to moles negros, albondigas to entomatadas. Its menu is brief, its prices low, its portions restrained. Search and you won't find the fiesta of kitsch and color that too often defines Mexican-restaurant décor. Instead, there's an arresting gallery of Oaxacan photographs, a well-stocked tequila bar and an open kitchen whose comforts include handmade tortillas that star in an array of Mexican finger foods. Open for dinner only.
