El Fortin Restaurant offers a delightful and vibrant menu that transports you to the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico, with each dish brimming with authentic flavors and traditional ingredients. Starting your meal with the Breakfast Salsa de Huevos or the Huevos Revueltos Con Jamon provides a hearty, flavorful foundation to your day, with the eggs cooked to perfection and paired with zesty salsas. For those seeking something more adventurous, the Breakfast Salsa de Chorizo or Chicharron brings bold, spicy notes that awaken your taste buds.
The Appetizers at El Fortin are perfect for sharing or indulging in solo. The Guacamole Oaxaqueno is a creamy, slightly smoky dip that pairs wonderfully with crispy chips, while the Chapulines (toasted grasshoppers) offer a crunchy, exotic twist. The Taquitos Dorados and Quesadillas Fritas are golden, crispy treats, ideal for dipping in fresh salsas.
Moving on to the Soups & Salads, the Sopa de Fideo Con Pollo is a warm, comforting chicken noodle soup, perfect for a light yet satisfying meal. For something refreshing, the Ensalada de Nopalitos and Ensalada Verde are vibrant salads full of crunchy textures and earthy flavors, complemented by tangy dressings. Meanwhile, the Chile de Agua Asado Con Limon Y Cebolla gives you a smoky, citrusy kick that's hard to beat.
When it comes to Oaxacan Cuisine, El Fortin excels with their Mole Negro Con Pollo and Mole Coloradito Con Puerco—rich, complex sauces that coat tender meats in a symphony of flavors. The Tortillas a Mano, hand-made and warm, are the perfect vehicle to scoop up every bite of these iconic Oaxacan dishes.
For something extra special, their Special Plates like the Enchiladas Campesinas and Tasajo Encebollado offer bold, satisfying dishes with layers of flavor. And, of course, the Kids Menu ensures even the youngest diners are well taken care of, with options like the Kids Memelitas de Ninos and Huevos Estrellados Con Fruta.
Finish your meal with a sweet note, such as the creamy Flan or refreshing Fresas Con Crema, followed by a drink from their extensive selection of Oaxacan Drinks like Horchata Oaxaquena or Tepache to wash it all down.
El Fortin is not just a meal—it’s an experience of authentic Oaxacan hospitality.
