    Salsa and some pretty deadly margaritas

    This dance hall is perfect for salsa exponents, those looking to tgive it a whirl without disgracing themselves and those who want to just take it in. Great atmosphere, music and fun crowd. As to why the cocktails were deadly, you will just have to...More

    If you fit the profile...

    I have not eaten here, but it is the place in Oaxaca for salsa, meringue and mamba dancing. If you dance well and have money to keep buying drinks before the waiters move you out of your table, I guess this is the place for...More

    a cool club for salsa

    If you like dancing the salsa, or just watching, this is the place to go, the fun starts at 11 pm, but you can get free lessons before that. Just go !

    Great for salsa!

    I've never eaten here but it's an excellent place to go for salsa dancing. There is a 50 peso cover; the live band usually starts at 11. There are tables to eat and drink around the dance floor. There aren't usually many foreigners here--just locals...More
