Women standing over open charcoal grills in the Huatulco heat, pressing tlayudas by hand all night long. Los Parados is a local institution and the food makes it obvious why. Get the tlayuda. Get the Oaxacan cheese queso. Go late and let the room do the rest.
Huatulco defaults to seafood. El Sabor de Oaxaca defaults to mole. Deep, rich, and built with the kind of patience that most beach town kitchens don't bother with. This is interior Oaxacan cooking a few hours from the Pacific, and it shows up. Order the mole. Leave the rest as a secondary consideration.

The zócalo in La Crucecita has no shortage of options. This one earns its spot with chapulines guacamole that actually delivers, a bar that keeps the energy moving, and live music that makes the whole thing feel like a party you stumbled into. The tacos are fine. The best bite of the night happens outside at the elote cart. Go in knowing that and you'll leave happy.
