" I visited Café Guanaco la Oaxaqueña last weekend and it was a culinary delight. The flavors of the tlayudas were incredibly rich, transporting me back to Oaxaca itself. I also tried their iced hibiscus tea, which was refreshing. The only downside was the slow service; we had to wait quite a bit between courses. Nonetheless, I’m looking forward to my next visit to try more from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was craving authentic Mexican food and stumbled upon this gem. The food was overall delicious, but I did find the prices a bit steep for what I received. I totally understand the flavors were high quality, but it wasn’t mind-blowing to justify the cost. Regardless, I would come back for those tlayudas! " (*Curated Review*)

" The quality of the food here is remarkable! I tried the mix of Oaxacan and Salvadoran dishes and enjoyed the diversity. While the prices are a bit steep, the portion sizes are decent. The decor is vibrant and gives a nice feel to the dining experience. One of my favorite spots to introduce friends to authentic food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My first time visiting and I was quite impressed. The staff was friendly, and the food was good, though not amazing. I tried the tamales, and they were authentic but could have used a bit more seasoning. Overall a good experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about this restaurant, I finally tried it out last weekend. The food was phenomenal and you could tell it was freshly made. The staff were attentive and made a few recommendations which I appreciated. However, the seating is a bit tight – but I would still return for the amazing food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family totally loved this restaurant! The margaritas were refreshing, and the main dishes were so flavorful. The children loved their food, and so did we. I would definitely bring my family back for another amazing meal! " (*Curated Review*)
