For a taste of the real Mexico, try some of the famous Oaxacan specialties at the Camino Real. Dishes such as mole and pipian sauces originated in the city and are often featured on the extensive menu.

Appetizers usually include a sampler plate of local favorites which makes a great introduction to this renowned cuisine. Continental specialties plus a good selection of national and international wines are also available.

The restaurant tables are arranged in the lofty beamed chambers of the former convent and also beneath the colonnades of the central courtyard.

In the evening the soft glow of candlelight warms the ancient walls, an enchanting setting for a lingering meal.
