This restaurant is known for its wonderful vegetarian fare, and its large portions. Located in a grass hut right off of Playa Zicatela, it is a perfect place to relax in the shade and enjoy a good meal and a glass of fresh juice. The waiters are very attentive and friendly. All in all a lovely beachside restaurant.

Traveler Reviews of El Jardin

Great Breakfast

Rating: 0%

I had breakfast here one day, big portions, good food, vegetarian selections, which is hard to come by in Latin America at times.

Healing Food!

Rating: 100%

the owner Franco, waits on you himself if he's there. they specialize in mending fragile stomachs suffering from 'traveler's sickness'. (in oaxaca, do not eat the cheese!)

all food is clean and fresh, and only use bottled water.

the menu is outstanding. try everything. i did. they will even make something not on the menu if you prefer.

the menu is italian based in flavours and combinations. breakfast is exceptional.

the deserts are all good. i recomend the nutella pizza. you have to see it to believe it.

every bite is a carnival in your mouth. this restaurant is the reason to go back to puerto escondido, for me. i'm sure you'll agree.

The Best!

Rating: 100%

The food here is amazing. After traveling for three months me and my boyfriend ate here every night for the week. The food is the best Italian I've had: lovely pizza and pasta. The atmosphere is great. Get here early though because its always full!
