Soo worth it! We went here twice during our stay in Oxaca, both times it was busy and you can see why. The tacos were soo tasty and such a good price. 10/10 would recommend.

There’s a reason the line is long. Just wait in it, order some stuff, enjoy the low prices, then stand there and gobble up the goodness. I had a quesadilla with chorizo and an empanada de amarillo. Both were fantastic but the empanada de amarillo was outstanding. A little messy, but worth it. Super nice folks working there too.

I have been to this stand a few times and it is always amazing. Super flavorful, made to order food with quality ingredients. The chilli relleno taco is great!

The food was okay. I ordered the mushroom dish without cheese, and while it was decent, I really think adding a vegan cheese option would make a big difference so us vegans don’t miss out. With vegan cheese, I’m sure it would taste even better! I’ll definitely come back because I want to try their other vegetarian options without cheese. You can tell this place is popular — lots of people were eating here.

The BEST street tacos AND salsa (can't forget that) I've had in a while. Fast and fresh. I highly recommend!!! Visit date: 11/1/25

The hype is legit, mi amigos. This is one time where the emperor DOES have a new suit--and only the special can appreciate it. I ate here before I knew they were featured in the Netflix series, so my mind being blown was wholly due to the amazing food. Let's start with the fact that the sweet abuelas make all their tortillas from scratch. Rolling, kneading, everything ground and processed the way nature intended. So chewy, so corny, so perfect. Then there's the tacos themselves. In runner-up, we have the delicious Flor de Calabaza (y Champiñón) con Quesillo, probably the most perfect veg taco ever created. Tied with that is the Chile Relleno, bursting with capsaicin and flavor. And if I hadn't returned to the same stall that same evening, I would already have been satisfied. But I did come back for their evening menu, and that's when I had the greatest taco I'll probably ever had on this earth: Empanada de Amarillo con Pollo. Picture the fluffiest tortilla you've ever had enclosing the most savory, umami salsa amarillo you can imagine. Add to that juicy--and I cannot emphasize enough, JUICY--strips of chicken. And top it all with the greatest herb Americans have never heard of: hoja santa (holy herb). I could write sonnets about how much I love hoja santa, but then this review would be a tome. Let's just say that the combination of their amarillo, pollo and hoja santa is the stuff of dreams--delicious, savory, lip-smacking dreams. I loved this taco so much, I went back for it again before leaving Oaxaca--and found to my delight that it's one of the items they offer during the day AND night. I think I ate about 5 in total. You don't want to know how often I fantasize about this taco now that I'm state-side. Pretty sure it would make the holy herb feel much less holy.

Amazing rolled tacos (tacos placeros) filled with beans, quesillos and other fillings of choice. My fav filling was chile relleno. The ladies roast the rolled tacos on comal to give the tortilla crispy texture. My husband’s favourite was salsa de chicarron. Memelas with quesillos are also a treat. You know the place is good because there are so many locals waiting for their food. We went back twice.

Terrific spot that I’ve visited more than any other Oaxaca food joint. Streetside food cart near Santo Domingo church has great Tylayudas for 120MNN. A must try when in Oaxaca, basically a huge quesadilla, one is enough to fill you for hours. Also great are Empanada de mole amarillo con flor de calabaza and Taco de chile relleno and memalitas. Closes mid afternoon and usually runs out of some stuff in the last hours.

So good we went back for more the next day. It's a bit of chaos, but just trust the process. Tacos are approx 28$ (pesos) each and the salsas are good and spicy. They're best known for the Chile relleno taco - it's a must.
