The I discovered Oaxaca and once again life is good. This is a great place to go with friends after a film at the Majestic. The servings are small and we simply ordered several plates and shared them. Everything was fantastic including plenty of items you don't normally find in Mexican restaurants. Some might gripe that there are no burritos. This isn't fair since the burrito is (depending on whose story you believe) not a Mexican creation and certainly isn't too be found in the southern Mexican city from which Oaxaca gets its name.
Only real room for improvement would be more room. The place is very crowded on a Saturday night and the wait can be lengthy.

This is our new favorite place to go when we've had a long day, don't want to cook, and need some cheap yummy eats. The pies are pot pies all made on site. I've had them all and there's not a dud in the bunch. There's also a special pie of the day and the soup of the day is always a winner. Servings are a refreshing break from the bigger is better portions being shoveled out by so many other eateries. Plus the smaller portions save room for dessert which is not to be missed!
The location is low-key, comfrotable and quiet. Tables up front; couches, bar and pool table in back.
Only real issue is that the menu is a bit limited. We go there 2-3 times a month and at this point we've pretty much gone through the menu several times over.
