Dine-In OR Carry Out

Mazunte Bodega is our newest chapter, reflecting our latest journeys through the palanques of Oaxaca, the blue agave fields of Tequila, the pulquerias of Mexico City and the botaneros of Guadalajara.

Our vision

We’ve always found it somewhat dangerous and particularly limiting to build a culture solely defined by a played-out premise. So at Mazunte, we’ve never concerned ourselves with the idea of “authentic food.” Instead, we use Mexico - its history, its vibrancy, its culture and its passion - as a steady guide and supreme motivation for everything we conceive, be it technique, design, atmosphere, or company values. We are not restricted by Mexico’s deep, powerful story, rather, we are creatively inspired by it.

The origin story of

Mazunte

From one taqueria in Madisonville to four spots across two cities, we have stayed true to the family recipes that started it all back in 2013.
