Mar de Fondo

Central Pacific Coast


Tired of the fish and seafood routine? Hit this restaurant in A&V Hotel Boutique, where you can order handmade pasta and lasagna, regional Oaxacan cuisine and sweet treats including apple strudel. There's also a variety of fish dishes that you won't find elsewhere in town, and the same can be said for the restaurant-bar's cocktails.
