Reviews

Delicious authentic Oaxacan (Mexican) dishes.
The tlayudas are crispy with a great mix of veggies, meat and cheese.
The molè is thick and savory.
The empanada de amarillo is very flavorful.
Our said the homemade tortillas that came with her Guelaguetza Especial were amazing.
Portions are very large (we always have leftovers) and the prices are very reasonable.
Go if you're looking for good food.
Highly recommended.


Look, it was 9 o' late p.m.
I ended up getting food poisoning over night.
I don't want to zero in on this establishment.
But I didn't eat anything else.
I ordered "AL Pastor".
I mentioned my incident to my coworker on Monday, she being a former nurse informed me that it might have been sitting out before I ordered it & I succumb to food poisoning.
At the time it was good.
But, I'm sorry, never again.
My I'm speaking out of PTSD.


Very disappointed, I ordered 2 Oaxacan tamales, and my friend ordered one, the tamales were very old, very dry and tasteless, when the waitress asked me if everything was okay and why I had not eaten my tamales, I told her, unfortunately the food was very bad.
She apologized but in the end without having eaten my tamales.
We asked for the bill, the waitress told me you ordered 3 tamales, but I'm only going to charge you for one, when she already knew that the tamales were not good.
