We had such a beautiful meal here. My husband and I, son and 2 year old moved into the area not too long ago and decided to give this place a try after a few friends of ours recommended we go. We’ve been to quite a few noted Mexican restaurants within LA but this gem is such a great, modest, authentic little place. The staff there were so friendly. We were Served by the lovely and very attentive Gena, who presented us with a fantastic mixed starter plate which had (our fav) pork crackling… omg???????? and an array of very tasty delights. This was followed by three delicious main courses. The very tender chicken breast mole was to die for … that sauce is stunning !!! The Oaxacan pizza is on a large delicious thin crispy tortilla base and a great sharing main.We also halved the burrito a La Oaxaqueña bañado con mole which was delicious and very filling. Our little one had some chicken broth with chicken and rice which was a great little soup for her albeit she LOVED the home made jello which was more appealing ???? Everything was explained so well by Gena as we ordered and were given our food. We also ordered a couple of the margaritas…. Oh yes !!!! They were sooooooo good!!!! We ended the meal with some takeaway sticky Mexican treats that were also very tasty. Surprisingly, the sugar squash …. Note: very sweet so if u have sweet tooth or need a sugar hit , was a yummy and interesting choice.
Thoroughly recommended and we will most definitely be back. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Overall it was good full of flavor. Chips and salsa was fresh. The tlayuda mixto was delicious. The chorizo torta was also very good. The pozole however was lacking, the broth was extremely water downed, no flavor at all. Easy way to tell was the homeny was small and not soft, the meat bland, trying to cook quickly which is not something you can do with pozole. Easily the worst pozole I ever had. Overall food tends to be very good, we have visited few times, just this time pozole was a HUGE miss.

Brilliantly fresh food with an excellent array of flavors including five different moles. Tina, the warm and efficient waitress invited us to saMple a few moles. Their deep rich black mole. Is. Astonishing. And you can get any mole served as a sauce on a. “wet” burrito (as big as a midget submarine.”

Food is Bland, meaning there's no taste, had the concume de pollo, basically cubs of uncooked chicken with water and onions, how they are staying in business is unbelievable. Overpriced, overhyped, stay away until the menu is changed.

I’ve been to this restaurant many times, and I was disappointed once again. The Yellow mole had little Flavor and even though it was a full entrée, there was only small pile of rice, and not a bean or garnish in site. I don’t think I can come back again. The waitress never came to see how we were doing or so we could order a side of beans!

Great Oaxacan restaurant! If you want some authentic Oaxacan food, then this is the place to eat. I came here for breakfast on my birthday and loved it. Reminds me of my mom's cooking.

I LOVE this restaurant! This authentic Oaxacan restaurant is a precious LA gem with amazing customer service and delicious Mexican food. The servers speak both English and Spanish and are always ready to help you in any way they can. The food and drinks are always delicious and much tastier than any Oaxacan restaurant that I’ve tried in Los Angeles. Parking is can be a little tough since it’s located on a strip mall but nearby parking meters are available as well. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend stopping here for an authentic and delicious Mexican meal. I’m a big fan of their delicious Jamaica and mole. So good!

Great for groups and enough room for kids. We had the tamales de mole, empanada de amarillo, queso fundido, and all were delicious. Definitely come here with an open mind because Oaxacan cuisine is its own thing.

A very nice quiet place, but above all the exquisite Oaxacan-Mexican food, excellent, wonderful attention... I recommend it, you will be delighted with its identical flavor to the place.
