MENU
YOLOTL ́S NACHOS SUPREMO
We know Nachos are not part of the Mexican traditional cuisine but we are happy for Tex-Mex infl restaurants in USA. We take the traditional nachos to another level. We seasoned our beans adding extrafl we topped them with Pico de Gallo, homemade guacamole, jalapeños and a drizzle of sour cream and guacamole salsa.

SALADS
TACO SALAD BOWL
Fresh whole black beans cooked to perfection, healthy quinoa, chopped ripe tomatoes, shredded lettuce, cilantro, and fresh roasted corn served on a flour tortilla shell. A mild avocado dressing brings together all the Mexican fresh flavors.

TACOS
BEEF TAQUITOS
Our crunchy Beef Taquitos are stuffed with very tender and tasty shredded beef. After frying to get that crispy exterior, we add shredded lettuce, onions, Queso Fresco, red onions and sour cream. We add guacamole salsa for more Zing!
SHRIMP AL PASTOR
"Al Pastor" is a spiced marinade traditionally used on lamb or pork and is delicious on shrimp. By adding pineapple and achiote adobe, we "cook" the shrimp while it marinates. We wrap them in handmade corn tortilla, cilantro, and onion.
FISH TACOS
Seared seasoned Mahi Mahi over three handmade tortillas, tartar sauce spread and topped with house coleslaw and habanero-mango salsa on the side.

HOUSE SPECIALTIES
MOLE MANCHAMANTELES
Considered to be one of Oaxaca's authentic seven classic moles. It is served on special occasions. Today is your special occasion when you order this dish! This mole with its sophisticated flavors is a complex and rich fruity sauce with ancient Mexican origins. We drench the pork shank in mole sauce made with the sweetness of dried fruits, plantains, pineapple and sweet potatoes, the saltiness of pine nuts, plantain, pineapple, apples, sweet potato and traditional spices. Served with rice.
MOLE OAXAQUEÑO PLATE
Experts call Oaxaca the culinary heart of Mexico. From Oaxaca comes Black Mole, the most layered in flavor, darkest, and silkiest sauce in all of Mexico. Although not a chocolate sauce, Black Mole is very exotic and not overly spicy or sweet. It will grab you with flavors that linger long after your plate is empty. Our shredded chicken is the perfect addition to this mole. Served with traditional rice, beans, and homemade corn tortillas.
PIPIAN VERDE
Long before the Spaniards set foot in the New World, Aztec women in central and south Mexico perfected this flavorful and hearty green mole made from tomatillos, pumpkin seeds ("pepita" in Spanish), and traditional spices. While our great grandmothers used the sauce over fish or wild game, we smother pork loin in this luscious mole!Served with traditional rice and beans.
CHILE AJO
In Oaxaca, the Mixtecs (an indigenous people) developed this incredible chili-garlic sauce, Chileajo, from red chiles and lots of garlic ("ajo"). Since it is their belved, everyday mole, Chileajo is the national dish of the Mixtec people! Large pots of Chileajo are lovingly simmered to celebrate a couple's marriage or to celebrate a life well lived. Since Chileajo is offered to every guest in someone's home, we offer this mole to you -our guest today! Served over pork loin, vegetables of the day and traditional rice.
CHILE RELLENO
For this traditional Mexican dish, we roast fresh Poblano Peppers, stuff them with delicious cheese, dip them into a fluffy egg batter, fry them until golden brown, and cover them with Ranchero sauce (a mild tomato sauce). If you wish, you can have yours filled with shredded chicken and almonds or ground beef and almonds.

SOUPS AND MORE
POZOLE VERDE
Pozole is a very traditional, flavorful, healthy, and satisfying Mexican stew often served on Christmas Eve. We start with Poblano Peppers, chicken, authentic Mexican herbs, and white hominy. Then, you can top it with shredded cabbage, radishes, and onions.
MENUDO
Our homemade Menudo is magic in a bowl! In our red chile broth with oregano and epazote ( a pungent Mexican herb), we slow simmer beef tripe until it is silky. Garnished with fresh lime and diced onions. Our delicious, handmade corn tortillas come with every bowl of Menudo.

VEGETARIAN
TOSTADAS DE FRIJOL
Vegetarian-Friendly! We smother two homemade, fried tostadas with our handmade refried pinto beans. We top it with lettuce, ripe avocado, sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, Queso Fresco (cheese), and served with salsa on the side. Vegan-friendly if requested!
TACOS DE PAPA
Vegetarian-Friendly! Found everywhere in Mexico from street-food stalls to the fanciest restaurants, Tacos de Papa are made with creamy, mashed potatoes and cheese. Since there is no meat, these are exceedingly popular during Lent. We start with three handmade, deep fried corn tortillas, and then fill them to the brim with our won mashed potatoes and Queso Fresco. Garnished with shredded lettuce, red onions, sour cream and medium-spicy guacamole salsa, this is a flavor fiesta for you to enjoy!
SOPES
Not only do we make corn tortillas out of corn flour, we make these little delights called "sopes" too! Sopes are thicker than corn tortillas and have a raised border around the edges to hold in all the yummy food we pile on them! We spread these with pinto beans and then top them with sliced avocado, tomatoes, Queso Fresco, shredded iceberg lettuce, and sour cream.

MEAT
CARNE A LA TAMPIQUEÑA
Taste this and you'll see why it's one of the most popular dishes in Mexico! In 1939, Carne Tampiqueña was created by restauranteur, Jose Ines Loredo, and his brother, Fidel, who was a chef. Each part of the dish has a meaning: The oval plate symbolizes the Huasteca, a Mayan people; the Rio Panuco is represented by a strip of grilled skirt steak: the purity of the people is represented by the white cheese; the green enchilada represents the fields; the region ́s agriculture is represented by the guacamole,; the black, refried beans represent the land's fertility and the oil boom in the Tampico area. Served with traditional rice.
FAJITA´S PLATE
Heart Healthy! We grill seasoned steak or lean chicken to perfection! Then we Sauté it with fresh, crips, sliced bell peppers and sweet onions drenched in our homemade Ranchera sauce. Served with warm, flour tortillas, traditional rice, beans, and guacamole.

Highly recommend Yolotl to anyone who enjoys Oaxacan food.

This place is amazing! At first sight, the decor is a Hallmark of central Mexican culture. The service is warm and responsive. Regardless, the food is the true reason to come - fresh ingredients, great offerings, and memorable flavours are guaranteed. Try the chile relleno, you will not be disappointed, unless you hate chiles or cheese.

AN ABSOLUTE GEM IN HAPPY VALLEY! Amazingly fresh Mexican cuisine, and come to find out, nothing is canned or frozen but all freshly made, not over seasoned/salted. The salmon tacos and fish tacos are a must! Beyond good!! The staff are SO FRIENDLY most especially Maria, the owner/manager! The restaurant is kept impeccably clean. Queso fundido was fantastic with the perfect chorizo amount in the mix. Their chips are fresh made and perfectly crispy and not over salted and...

Where authentic Mexican flavors meet small-town charm. The tacos are pure perfection, and the mole? Chef’s kiss. Service is warm and welcoming, though the vibe’s a little quiet—until the food wakes your taste buds up. Worth every delicious bite!
