“ Excellent homemade & authentic Mexican food. We stopped by around 2:45pm, and the food was amazing. Mixed meat tacos on corn tortillas, and sopes. The side sauces that came with the meal were superb. Perfectly sweetened horchata as well. On our way out, we grabbed one of the pastries —- pan de leche (?)— reminded of an egg custard meets pound cake meets cheesecake. We will come back again soon. ”
“ The beef, pork and Mexican sausage Tacos were great. My girlfriend also loved her quesadilla with everything in it. ”

“ The food is very authentic. Taste great compared to other mexican places such as Chicanos. I love it... ”
“ 10/10 I lived in Villa de Santiago for 6 months, this is the closest I've ever gotten to tasting Mexico in America ”
“ I have been eating at Taqueria Oaxaca for about 6 months now and have yet to have a bad meal. The meals are wonderful. It is authentic Mexican cuisine, with great flavors that you will never get from any of the chains. I will suggest the Tostado’s....they are to die for. Everything is homemade, from the chips, salsa, wraps, etc.. If you like Cilantro, you are at home. I will state that the place does not look like much from the outside, but the kitchen is clean and the inside is well kept. My wife and I have become addicted and get an order every weekend. ****UPDATE*** Still eating here weekly. The Pesole is great and the owners are great. Cannot say enough good things about this place. If you show up on Friday afternoon, you will see that the place is packed. Good food at a good price. I feed my family of four for 35 on take out and we usually have left overs. ”
“ I live close. Of all the Mexican restaurant s this is my ultimate favorite. Also they have a grocery store as well. Totally the best. ”
“ The beef, pork and Mexican sausage Tacos were great. My girlfriend also loved her quesadilla with everything in it. I always make it a point to stop here when I’m in the area. Los Tacos de res, cerdo y salchicha mexicana estaban deliciosos y a mi novia le gusto la quesadilla con todo. ”
