La Chevichela Oaxaca Reviews
Simply incredible ceviche, beautifully and inventively presented, and absolutely delicious. Great cocktails and outstanding service. Delightful change after several days enjoying the traditional Oaxacan cuisine. It’s a little out of the way and has a very simple but pleasant ambiance. Well worth a visit - our favorite restaurant so far!
Our last night in Oaxaca brought us here because we were exhausted from all the walking and it was around the corner from where we were staying. We did not expect to eat the finest seafood dinner we’ve ever had. The restaurant itself was a cool little place with an easy attitude. The service was absolutely outstanding. Intelligent, attentive and informative, our server walked us through each of our dishes, explaining everything and answering all our questions. Each dish was brought to us promptly and exquisitely prepared and presented. And everything we had was SPECTACULAR. I would travel back to Oaxaca in an instant just to eat here. I believe the restaurant is still new but I hope they’ll be here forever. La Cevicheria Oaxaca is a seafood restaurant I cannot possibly recommend enough. RUN and enjoy a meal here. You will not regret it.
What an amazing restaurant! My husband and I found this Cevicheria by chance while visiting Oaxaca for our anniversary. The food is absolutely amazing. My husband said it was the best Michelada he's ever had. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend!!
I had the traditional ceviche and it was nothing short of a masterpiece. The first few bites nearly brought me to tears — I genuinely had to compose myself. Each mouthful was an explosion of flavor, perfectly balanced and deeply satisfying. The presentation was a work of art, and the warm, attentive service made the entire experience feel personal and heartfelt. The ambiance was peaceful and beautiful - the kind of place that nourishes all five senses. I left not only full, but inspired. I can't recommend this place enough. It made me rethink how I approach food and life — so much so that | signed up for a local cooking class afterward. This wasn't just a meal, it was a moment. Truly sensational.
We tried the Ceviche de Piña and the Aguachile de Chile Agua de Camarón Seco, and both were outstanding. The flavors were bold yet refreshing, perfectly balanced, and light. Plus, the variety of flavorful chips served alongside added a great touch. A must-visit spot for ceviche lovers! And don’t forget the postres!
My Mexican husband said his shrimp aguachile was the best he ever tasted. My ceviche with pineapple was perfection and the fresh oysters were the meatiest I've ever eaten. This place is outside the tourist area and well worth the walk. Cute atmosphere with clean bathrooms to boot! We want to go back and try other stuff.
Best meal in Oaxaca and that’s saying something with all the incredible places to choose from. This place was recommended to us by our food tour guide Betsaida and we are so glad we tried it. The freshest Ceviche we’ve ever tasted (Ceviche de Pina y Tusta). It’s an only a short distance walking from town and so worth it. Staff are amazing and very knowledgeable when explaining all the dishes. 10/10!
I dont usually post unless its a place that goes above and beyond my expectations. After eating out for a couple months here in Oaxaca City, this is the one place I keep coming back to again and again. The open kitchen and smiling staff represent a quality of flavors that I can only describe as wonderful.
Our hands down favorite restaurant in Oaxaca! Flavors were phenomenal - impressed by every dish we ordered and didn’t even have to spend a pretty penny on the meal. Our personal favorite was the shrimp tostado, which had a smoky aroma with so much flavor. It smelled fantastic and was our best bite here. I also would recommend the fish ceviche. Flavor was spot on and so refreshing. Trust me this place is a gem. I’ll be here the next time I visit the city!
YUM!! beautifully presented and truly amazing food!! Highly recommend this place. The service was perfect, the food was perfect, it was a bit quiet when we went as early in the day but already looking forward to coming back ! We had the Smoked Fish Ceviche, Octopus Ceviche and the Black Seafood pasta, every dish was exceptional, beautifully presented, tasty and fresh as well as really good value for the portions. Our waiter was super friendly, patient and accommodating. The restaurant is also nicely decorated and inviting. One of our favourite meals in Oaxaca. Thank you team !!!
Really delicious ceviches - all were unique and flavourful. We also liked that they provide different types of tostadas to try along with the dishes as well. The patio is covered from the sun yet is still very airy and is a nice place to relax and cool down during the heat of the afternoon.
Food was so good we ate here twice in two days. Ceviche, tacos, and seafood pasta were all delicious. Service was great - some spoke a bit of english, some did not but were very kind and patient with our broken spanish. There are a few things on the menu that are temporary so when we came back the second day, we were pleasantly surprised that there were different ceviche and tacos to try!
I would give 6🌟 if I could - best food and service we experienced in Mexico!! The ceviches are always made with fresh fish from that day (it was tuna on the day we went) and paired with delicious veggies, fruits and a perfect sauce that balances everything out. We also had the shrimp ceviche (first time having raw shrimp), served with apple and pear, and it was mouthwatering. The tuna ceviche stole the show though - with a perfect smokey flavour that I am still dreaming about weeks later. Honestly, if you’re in Oaxaca, you MUST go to this place. I promise you - you will not regret it. We went at 4PM and the restaurant was still practically full - with more people coming in all the time (mostly locals!!). We also tried the plantain dessert, which was delicious. The ice cream, as well as their água fresca, are absolute must tries! Enjoy!! We can’t wait to be back.
Absolutely the best seafood in all of Oaxaca City.. and the best I’ve had in some time! The service, flavors, hospitality and kindness of staff reached beyond our expectations. We could of easily dined her multiple times and sincerely was one of the highlights of the trip. Looking forward to our next visit! Thank you all for such an outstanding culinary experience!
