Mezzaluna - 68000 Oaxaca de Juárez

I’ll write a balanced review, but we were looking forward to this place after reading the good reviews. For me, one of the differences between a good place and a great place is how the kitchen copes when busy. We went last night. It was busy. The front desk was efficient and we were seated quickly. Then we were ignored for around 15 mins. We ordered the shrimp salad and calamari to start. The calamari arrived initially and was cold and a little chewy. The salad arrived 10 minutes later. Not a great start. We both ordered the carnes frías pizzas as a main course. The pizza base was thin and crispy which was good. But when you are paying this much for a pizza, i DO NOT expect cheap processed hot dog sausage on a pizza. Sorry - that was awful. We asked for the bill and they tried to charge us for 2 bottles of wine, when we had ordered one. Servers - please check the bill before you give it to a customer. All in all we would never return here. Overpriced, overrated and not a great experience.

Great spot for Pizza, it was delicious and first time I tried Worcestershire and soya sauce on a pizza it was very tasty. Service was good. You have a view of Santo Domingo Church. The service was pretty efficient. Nothing wrong with this place. Pepperoni Pizza was 200 pesos and Corona 50 pesos I think so reasonable! Ill go back for sure.

Excellent food - especially the Pizza ? Good location, good views.

original italian pizza with thin crust, high grade ingredients. Prices a bit high for mexico (220mxn for a pizza for 1 person) but worth it for me :)

Good energy. Comfortable. Good service. Amazing food. We had homemade thick slice yummy bread served with basil and olive oil. Lasagna vegetarian and regular Lasagna. Both delicious and generous servings. Sorry we did not get photos but, we were both too hungry to think of it.

The hand made pasta, the fresh parmesano cheese, the tapenade, the fresh bread- all wonderful. The service was exactly what you would want at this price point (terrific without attitude) and in both English and Spanish.

I’m kind of embarrassed to admit we went here 4 times during the 3 weeks we were in Oaxaca! But the perfect combination of rooftop ambiance, fantastic servers, price, and most importantly amazing food kept bringing us back. The pizza was truly (and surprisingly) some of the best I’ve ever had. Wood fired, Naples style pizza. We tried a variety of pizzas over our 4 visits & all were delicious. The salads too were wonderful, particularly the arugula. Impressive little joint in the heart of town that we highly recommend!

Great pizza and amazing salads. We visited three times while in Oaxaca. We also told others where to find this great pizza place. You can get pizza anywhere in the world, but the service, location, prices and rooftop can't be matched. I suggest the arugula salad with pear. So good. The service is amazing. Doesn't matter what pizza you order they're all fabulous. Great beer selection too.
