Comedor Los Traviesos

Comedor Los Traviesos is a simple family-run comedor in Mazunte, the small coastal Oaxacan town known for its turtle sanctuary and laid-back beach culture, serving home-style coastal Oaxacan cooking to a mix of long-term visitors and residents rather than the beach-bar crowd found closer to the shoreline. The comida corrida, a fixed daily set menu typical of Mexican comedores, is the restaurant's main draw, offering a soup, main course, and side for a set price that changes with what's available that day, alongside a fresh fish fillet option prepared simply on the grill or griddle. The setting is basic, with a handful of tables in a modest open-air structure along Mazunte's main street, reflecting its identity as a genuine local eatery rather than a restaurant styled for tourists. Because the menu depends on the day's ingredients and is prepared in home-cooking quantities, the comedor can sell out of the day's comida corrida by early afternoon, particularly during Mazunte's high season from November through April. There is no reservation system; it operates strictly on a walk-in basis from morning through early evening.
