" I had a good experience at La Oaxaqueña, though a little mixed. The food was fresh and had that authentic Mexican taste, but the service could really use some improvement. I waited quite a while for my order, and there seemed to be a lack of urgency from the staff. Nevertheless, once I got my food, I was pleased. I would give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how much I love La Oaxaqueña! Every dish I have tried is bursting with authentic flavors—exactly what I craved. My favorite is the shrimp cocktail, but you really can’t go wrong with any of their offerings. The only trouble I've had is finding a table during busy hours, but the wait is always worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Oaxaqueña is exceptional in its authenticity! I've tried multiple dishes, and each one brings back memories of my travels to Mexico. The tacos are flavorful; I particularly love how they marinate the meat. Yes, the vibe is nothing fancy, but that adds to the charm. Be patient; the food is worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" When I visit my family in Harrisburg, La Oaxaqueña is always on my list. Everything is fresh and prepared to order, including their delicious sopes that I cannot get enough of! The staff is great, but the ambiance feels a bit like a bodega, which I enjoy for its authenticity. I will definitely return on my next trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" I thought this place was going to be another taco stand, but I was pleasantly surprised! The food is quite authentic, and the friendly atmosphere made it a lovely experience. The price matches the large portions, which are worth every penny. They offer unique options that you don’t find at typical Mexican restaurants. I am definitely returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a real gem in the city! Such a cozy place with authentic and flavorful Mexican food. The tacos were amazing and reasonably priced. I will come back for sure. Just don't expect quick service during busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I understand that they focus on authentic food here, but the service was bordering on hostile when I visited. I had high expectations due to the reviews, but my experience fell short. The food wasn’t bad, but it lacked seasoning, which surprised me. I may consider returning when not as busy. " (*Curated Review*)
