La Carta De Oaxaca offers authentic Mexican cuisine that tastes almost homemade. The entrees are fresh and delicious, with warm chips and good salsa. The food, especially the lamb birria and dishes in mole negro or rojo, is consistently excellent, and the aromas are so inviting they seem magical. The menu includes flavorful options like Al pastor, shrimp tacos, and perfectly made mole, all served with homemade corn tortillas. The freshly made tortillas and solid tequila and mezcal cocktails make it a great place for lovers of authentic Mexican food. Many diners find the flavors so good that they wish they could visit more often, and the energy inside captures the spirit of Oaxaca perfectly. Service can be spotty at times, with some reviews noting slow service, but the friendly staff and warm atmosphere make up for it. Visitors often mention the big portions, especially the pizza and lamb dish, and note that prices are very reasonable, around $25 per person. Parking may be challenging here, but the authentic flavors and inviting environment make it worth the visit.
