Cenaduria Oaxaqueña Donaji

Wow what a hidden gem! My favorite was the Quesadilla and the Tamale Mole.

This place is definitely worth checking out!

Food i delicious and very authentic, the staff is amazing, best oaxacan food I've tasted. The mezcal with chapulines and quesillo hit the spot

I lived in Oaxaca for 15 years and this is the closest it gets to authentic food, from the folded tlayuda to the lettuce under the molote. Amazing food!

Really authentic .
I was really excited to try this place and I wanted to try everything...
Got a tamal de mole, tlayuda, quesadillas, and a mezcal shot.
Everything was so delicious!
The service was outstanding- everyone was really good at their job and super friendly!
Oh, I got the Oaxacan water as well.. it was refreshing !

For sure going back!

Cenaduría Oaxaqueña Donaji truly exceeded my expectations. The restaurant is set in a house with limited parking, but plenty of street parking nearby. Luckily, we found a spot inside. As we stepped under the large white tarp, we were welcomed like guests at a family gathering, I immediately felt at home. While waiting for our table, they kindly seated us next to a heater, making the experience even more comfortable. From there, we could watch the food being prepared, and it was nothing short of an art form. After a brief 15-minute wait, we were seated and ready to enjoy our meal. I tried a tlayuda for the first time, and it was absolutely delicious, loaded with quesillo, beans, and three types of meat: cecina, chorizo, and what appeared to be chuleta. The portions were incredibly generous. We also shared a quesadilla with epazote, which was just as flavorful. With those two dishes, my wife and I had more than enough to eat. To top it off, the café de olla was incredible, and the hot chocolate was simply exquisite. I highly recommend visiting this hidden Oaxacan gem in Riverside!

Everything was delicious!!! The tlayuda is a very good size and the hot chocolate is delicious.
Perfect to go to dinner with your partner or family

Don’t let the location fool you, this is a great spot if you are craving Oaxacan food and don’t want to drive all the way to LA or OC. It is located in a local neighborhood, but there is plenty of parking and it feels very safe.

I love coming to this place because the food has a lot of flavor and they are always very helpful. The tlayudas are very delicious but I can never finish one by myself, that's why I order memelas hahaha, they are super delicious, this time I ordered one with chorizo ​​and my brother ordered one with Tazajo, accompanied by a delicious chocolate, I highly recommend them ❤️
