El Sabor de Antequera

This place was wonderful. It's children friendly, which was a huge thing for us. Our children were able to play I. Their play area, and they set us close to the area so we would be able to see them. They also had face painting. They have a huge variety of different food from tacos, meats, fish, enchiladas, soups, salads, fruits, and desserts. They also serve mezcal drinks, beers, and other alcoholic beverages. I had a guava mezcal, I would definitely recommend it. The waiter we had was wonder. As soon as we came in the provide us with two shots and a complementary appetizer. This was one of the best serves we ever had. The place and staff over was wonderful. We will definitely be returning.

I have eaten at countless buffets countless times in my life. This was a unique experience. If you ever come to Oaxaca this buffet is a must. We try to go within an hour of the open because everything is super fresh and most people get there 2-3 hours after the open.

Vast choices to pick from. My favorite is bringing huge groups of friends, having varieties to choose from, saves us from worry about where to go for food.

It's a great place to have dinner with friends or family, a huge variety of typical meals and excellent service.

Absolutely a must visit eat as much as you can buffet restaurant in Oaxaca at very reasonable price. The food is great, freshly prepared everyday. Their buffet probably encompass a wide range of classic food the state of Oaxaca has to offer. The place is huge and according to the owner (his dad, the person who started it all passed back in January, bless him), and i don't have any reason to disagree with him because i have seen it with own eyes, can accommodate around 900 people continuously coming in and out. The service is great and very attentive because rotation is the key but not at any point while we were there, we felt the pressure we had to leave to make room for next customers waiting in line outside. Their service is amazing about ninety professional and smiling waiters working in harmony throughout the day. Amazing place, definitely recommended, it totally deserves 5 stars!

A must stop, especially foreigners who don’t know various Oaxacan moles and other regional foods, it a fantastic buffet, exceptionally well done and reasonably priced. Recommend to all, best to go 1st on arrival to Oaxaca you’ll be educated on all regional foods prepared right! Remember to start like a bird, zero in on your favorites and finish like a pig! Can’t wait to return

Wonderful buffet, great for couples and families. The food is really delicious and great variety. Lot's of fresh vegetables. I have been here many times and always come back when I am in Oaxaca.

In over two years of looking for places to try an array of Oaxacan dishes, this one stands out as the best i have found. I've been back almost ten times.

At the end of this review i'll list a random assortment of things i've enjoyed at Sabor de Antequera, 'Flavour of Oaxaca' - 'Antequera' being the original name of this colonial city.

The price has climbed steadily from 150 to 170 pesos as of this writing, and yet this isn't enough to prevent it being filled with families on holiday afternoons. If you talk to locals enough you'll find that nearly everyone knows about this place, but mostly under its previous name, La Escondida. The original owners were very well known in the Oaxaca valley and their story is legendary, but they both passed on to the big buffet in the sky and as long as i have been here it has been under the new ownership.

Over a hundred options on the buffet plus a la carte selections are likely to please anyone. It's the kind of place you can bring your vegan friends to eat at the same table as those with SIBO who are on a strict meat-only regimen.

Often a skilled Mariachi band or a solo troubadour will pass by your table asking to play for coin. While many Mexicans and many of the older foreigners love to dress up to go out, you can see on a busy day that fairly casual dress is acceptable too.

The playground on the north side of the main seating pavilion has a decent array of equipment and is occasionally staffed with face-paint artists and other enthusiastic entertainers. You can also just sit nearby and you can see your kids from where you eat.

For special events they will rent the eastern seating area, which has space for dancing and a live band.

Be sure to tip the parking attendants if you bring a vehicle and want to spread goodwill! I give them ten or twenty pesos as i leave.

A lot of choices of dishes very good service and clean place

Talk about a great deal, the food is great! If you go to the back there is a grill where they prepare handmade tortillas, tlyudas, everything fresh. Their soup selection is delivious as are their desserts!

Best buffet in the world, and I mean it. Can't get that much high quality food at such low price, plus fantastic drinks at no extra cost.
