Rikisimo la comida y las empleadas muy amables.!! Y
I don't know what them low star reviews are especially the one's that give no context! I've been here at least 5x. I've stopped in before lunch, during lunch, and after lunch. I work in the field so I'm very picky about where I stop if I do eat out. Every time, the food has been delicious, fresh, and just as ordered. Customer service has been top notch, the prices are more than fair for the portion, the place is clean and presentable. Only minor downside is restrooms are outside...read full review
The place overall is a 4-star, I ordered a caldo de pollo which took somewhat 20 minutes to get to my table, but it was pretty good. I’d recommend their agua de horchata because it’s delicious with the toppings in it. You can also order to go and buy other food items from them like cheese, chorizo, breads and tortillas.

El Fortin is an authentic Oaxacan restaurant that serves flavorful dishes in a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The Tlayuda and Clayuda are standout menu items, bursting with rich flavors and fresh ingredients. The food was delicious, including guacamole, nopalitos, caldo de pollo, chile relleno, enchiladas, champurrado, and gorditas, all made fresh. The restaurant offers a cozy, traditional home-style feeling that reflects the cooking from Oaxaca State of Mexico. Guests should expect some wait time during lunch, as great tasting food and good service take time. The ambiance is cute and makes diners feel like they are eating in Mexico, with decor that transports visitors to another place. The prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly and attentive. While the space can be a bit tight, the overall experience is excellent, making it a highly recommended spot for anyone seeking a taste of Mexico.
