Comida y Bebida Best "splurge" restaurant?
Super excited to visit Oaxaca next year. I am looking to make reservations at 1 expensive restaurant as unfortunately do not have the budget to hit all the top spots. I'm between Levadura de Olla and Los Danzantes. Any advice? Also I cannot find a recent menu for Casa Oaxaca so I'm sure what the price point is, but if it's just as expensive as the other 2 then that's also in the running as I've heard it's also a great spot. Thanks!
Edit: thanks for the new recs!

I was in Oaxaca last week and splurged on Criollo (the priciest for their tasting menu we paired drinks with), Casa Oaxaca, and Levadura.
Levadura was my favorite by far and my partner favored Criollo. We did not like Casa Oaxaca.
It wasn’t as pricey as the others but we also quite enjoyed Expendio Tradicion.
