Tortas Cualquier Carne

“Chicken tacos were very good 5/5. El pastor was 4/5. Sauces were good. Nice place. I would only have one suggestion for us non native costumers…and that would be to have full meals instead of ordering each item separately. That’s why I could just order tacos with beans and rice and the only choice would be what meat I want. Good food though.“

And when I'm broke I don't klnow where else i can head for a couple dollar tacos and come out full in the end. The choice of meats here allows you to eat several times a week without getting that burnt out feeling. Her Queasadillas are huge and so very good. If you haven't eaten here DO IT!“

“If you are a mole lover, be prepared to fall in love with La Oaxaqueña.

I have family from Oaxaca and go years without seeing them, but having an order of enmoladas brings me so much homey comfort.

La Oaxaqueña is vibrant, consistent, and authentic; nothing but true to the Oaxaqueño culture.

I've had the mole, pupusas, and the tlayuda and enjoyed each of them.

I do ask for the enmoladas to be filled with beans instead of chicken for a vegetarian option. They also used chicken that had bone in the first few times I ordered them, and was a bit put off; the bean substitution keeps me satisfied without the bone digging.

My only real complaint with La Oaxaqueña is the restroom - it is clearly an afterthought. If I'm washing my hands before a meal, I'd like to believe the bathroom is as clean as the rest of the establishment; right now, it's not something I'd want to be eating out of. 🥲“

“This place is the best! My favorite go-to for a great burrito at any time of day. I haven't tried many of their dishes, but there are a lot that look very good. I just can't think about wasting any opportunity to get one of their burritos!

Parking: The fact it is always open (24 hours), there is always parking & it never gets too busy!

Kid-friendliness: Lobby feels very welcoming and safe, there's good latin music & I've never felt worried about my safety“

“Food was excellent and the staff was very friendly. Have to knock off a star for the insane prices. Got a bowl for $11.85 with brisket. The extra brisket charge was $7.40, so with tax I paid over $21 for one entree. No guac, no sides, no drink. I know inflation is real and underreported but this is just clobbering people.“
