It had been many years since I ate at Casa Oaxaca but the recent reviews were exceptional so I thought I would try it again. The evening started out not so great...I sat for about 15 minutes as multiple servers walked past me with no acknowledgement. The restaurant had some customers but not crazy busy. When I finally flagged someone down they said they were waiting for the rest of my party to arrive. I did manage to order a drink (spicy pineapple margarita...which wasn 't spicy! and the night got better. Was it the margarita or that my party arrive ; We ordered at our own pace and that was great. The guac was tasty as was the queso with the chorizo. The carne asada was the most flavorful of...
The food is very good. As are the drinks. Service could be more attentive. We had to ask for water refills. Our fajitas came out without the tortillas and sides which did not follow for 10 minutes. Unfortunate as our fajitas cooled off in the meantime. I hope it's a one time issue and I would recommend this place as the food and atmosphere is very good but it seemed like we had to keep asking for things. No one came to check to see if we needed anything.
We love Oaxaca. Service was great. Our food was great. Only issue was how loud the music was. Hard to carry a conversation. Perhaps they can compromise by making music louder later in the evening?
This is a really good neighborhood restaurant with good food at a reasonable price. Hopefully, it will remain a staple of the Bethesda restaurant scene for years to come.

Had been a while since we had visited. Food was better than we remembered and service was certainly better. Glad to see things are improving as its a fun place.
Birthday party for ten people. Service was not good. The server was inattentive and the food took 30 mins to arrive (beef and chicken tacos and salad).
loves this Mexican restaurant. eating is delicious, service is great and outdoor space is plentiful (and heated) so covid safe
Attentive service but not rushed. Food was very good. Very reasonable prices. Good tap beer selection.
