El Sabor Oaxaqueño #2

The food is out of this word….. i really like the tortillas, hand made, crispy…. Hummm yumm…. Tacos al pastor are meaty and abundant… tlayudas are somenting you need to try…. Autentic mexican you are missing ii. Great taco Tuesday option!

OMG. What a find. Delicious food served up in a corner bodega. Food was insanely delicious. Menudo (tripe soup) was perfect. Best I’ve ever had. Tripe melts in your mouth and broth yummm. Tacos rocked. We had the lengua (tongue), carnitas (pork) and beef. All amazing. Definitely going back for more. We want to try the tamales and grilled meats. Who am I kidding I want to try EVERYTHING!!!!

Waitress was nice and greeted us when we walked in. Went on a Sunday night, so only maybe one other group of people were eating in. It’s basically a bodega with a couple of tables around the kitchen/grill section of the store. Couple of aisles of basic cooking and health necessities are located in the front of the store.

Tlayudas are very large thin toasted tortillas (piazz box size!) covered with bean spread, crumbly cotija and mozerella-like oaxacan cheese, lots of cabbage, onion, tomato, bell pepper, and avocado and the meat of your choice (or meatless). I could only eat half and delightedly snacked on it through the next day. They have tacos, fajitas and other familiar Mexican dishes. There are weekend special dishes, including some meal-sized soups I’ll try this winter! Until the , it was great to finish with a paleta (a delicious water or milk based popsicle from the freezer in the front in MANY tropical flavors.) Inexpensive, delicious, clean, warm waitstaff.
