Celebrating my mom’s birthday with a delightful dinner, I was thoroughly impressed. The service and food were exceptional, earning them a perfect 10/10 rating. I highly recommend the queso fresco and camarones a la diabla.

ISTMO has amazing, caring staff and a pleasing interior aesthetic. The cocktails were good. The food, however, was not so great. The Oaxacan Spread and Pineapple Aquachile were nice. The scallops on the mole rosa were not fresh; you could smell them as the dish was being set on the table, and they were the consistency of rubber. A lot of dishes were served with generic toasted bread; small tlayuda chips would have been much, much better. Speaking of, the tlayuda was good, but meat served with it was absolutely not tasajo, the cured beef one sees all over the state of Oaxaca, rather it was an ordinary small steak. And then, the steak doneness was not asked and ours ended up being medium (medium-rare to rare is preferred). The camarones were overcooked, and the papas bravas were hunks of potates with some seasoning; they were nothing special. I really don't like leaving reviews like this, especially since ISTMO is a small business, but the food needs to up its game. Maybe it was an off night -- accidents happen -- but our party of 4 all left in agreement that we don't really expect to return, except maybe for a cocktail in the beautiful bar area. Do note there is only wine and tequila/mezcal, plus some artisan rums and Condesa gin (which is an excellent gin, btw); ISTMO does not have a full bar with the usual suspects. This was fine for us since we enjoy these, but for some it might be a surprise.

Amazing experience at Itsmo. The service here was phenomenal - my water glass was never empty, and our waitress Mesli was so kind and wonderful. Highly recommend the seafood options - my fiancé got the cod which cut like butter, and I got the shrimp, for which the seasoning was great and overall just a solid dish. Will be back!

We had a good brunch. The chorizo verde and blue corn pancake are definitely worth trying. I had the enfrijoladas — they were tasty. The carne asada as an add-on-delicious. Coffee was solid, and the service was friendly and attentive. Cocktails are well though out. Great addition to the neighborhood.

I can’t say enough good things about Istmo! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The staff were incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly, making the experience that much better. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. We especially loved the Mole con pollo, which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The drinks were equally impressive, was a standout! It’s clear that a lot of thought and care goes into every detail here, from the menu to the service. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want an amazing meal, Istmo is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back soon!
