Absolutely amazing for a late night atmosphere, the food was delicious despite my order being just meat and cheese. Gave us grilled onions and a delicious habanero salsa as an appetizer. Their dog Peter was also so amazingly adorable, genuinely a great meal in every regard.

A great place to eat. A fusion of Oaxacan and Poblano cuisine. We ordered the grilled cheese with meat, served with three different types of tortillas (flour, corn, and pita bread). We also had guava water with it.

Very delicious! Hidden gem for sure. The Árabe and the frijoles charros were delicious!!

Marc Douglas

Very generous with the meat and cheese. Tastes really good; comfort food. It's a great roadside taco shop that's in a building

Tacos slapped

The Arabe tacos were very delicious!

We stayed at the hotel next door and I went to Balcon de le lechuza 3 times in 4 days, I was addicted. Service is fast, no frills family-run. Food was always fresh, simple, tasty. Carne and cheese tacos and tortas both great, rojo and verde salsa were good, verde tasted very different than other places in town. The frijoles charros were a suprise hit too, so good!

Some of the best tacos I had in our month-long stay in Oaxaca. I also highly recommend the tostadas. DO NOT miss the salsa!

The bean soup (55 pesos) is amazing.

Great for what it is, which is a straightforward taqueria (with an owl theme for some reason) specializing in Arabic-style tacos (think shawarma). On that criteria, it is superb. If you're looking for more, you'll be disappointed.

Great cousine, great service. For a start they have three diferent types of tortilla, the grill its excellent, you choose between pork or chiken meat.

Considero que es algo caro comparado con la cantidad del producto que pides, pero están ricos y más las cebollas asadas.

La comida es muy sabrosa, el servicio rápido, el local pequeño pero adecuado para comer y correr. Que más se puede pedir de un local que sirve al pueblo? La carne es servida al pastor, he de ahí el nombre “árabe” por el shuarma. Barato y delicioso!

The service is a bit slow, the portions are medium, but the price makes up for it somewhat. They only offer "Arab" tacos with different tortillas. They also have tortas with the same meat, as well as pozole, also with the same meat. It's fine if you don't want to walk too far and you're already in the area, but it's not a particularly charming place.

Good food, came quickly. When paying seemed to be more than what was on menu but still a quick and good bite for lunch. Cash only - staff had no English

Traditional tacos árabes in Oaxaca, the meat is tasty, the best taco to try is árabe with cheese. Service is fast.

Evanne Ellis

Food was really good. Service was quick. Open late. If you're a tourist, try tacos with cheese. Oaxaca is known for their cheese and it rarely comes on tacos.

Ibamos 4 personas, nos entregaron la comida de 3 y 20 minutos después el platillo faltante; estaba bueno, pero el servicio muy malo. Ademas no anotaron 2 productos de la order… eso es bueno y malo por que no quería perder mas tiempo ahí.

Fué (si no me equivoco) el primer lugar que ofreció los tacos árabes en la ciudad, de niño era una delicia y toda una experiencia comer aquí. Ahora el tiempo le ha cobrado factura y la sazón ya no es la misma, el precio no va acorde al sabor ni al lugar, ya luce viejo, descuidado y las porciones ya no son buenas. Es una lástima que lo hayan dejado caer.

Son unos muy buenos tacos, desde el fundador pero a mí paladar le falta más sazón al parrillero de Hidalgo, y desearía que apliquen manchego a las quesadillas árabes. El quesillo es muy rico pero el manchego le da un plus a la carne. El jocoque debe estar más acidito a mi gusto. En general son buenos tacos.

Sooooo expensive for what it is. I understand it's something "different," but I think they're exaggerating the prices. Also, when I visited, the establishment was completely empty, and they still delayed delivering my order.

El balcón de la lechuza que tristeza, el fin de un gran negocio... Se fueron los búhos, se fue el chimichurri, cambiaron la luz, quitaron el trompo, ya no hay atole de arroz... La carne es diferente y subieron los precios, Es una tristeza el negocio, ahora.

Muy mala atención al cliente y no es un lugar muy limpio. Está barato, pero la carta no ofrece mucha variedad. Si eres vegetariano, lo único que puedes pedir son quesadillas o jocoque (que no está muy fresco). Los baños están muy mal y no hay toallas de papel, sólo unas de tela que huelen mal. No sé, pero para mí lo más importante en un restaurante es la higiene. No lo recomiendo.

They are not open at 12:43 am. However, the hours listed say they should be opened until 3. I walked all that way for nothing.
