" I stumbled upon this restaurant when searching for authentic tacos, and I was not disappointed! The portions are huge, and the flavors are exactly what I was hoping for. The atmosphere was lively with good music, but the staff seemed a bit understaffed that night. I opted for takeout next time, and the food was just as great! " (*Curated Review*)

" It took a long time to get seated, and we really didn't like the wait for food either. That said, when the food finally made it to our table, we were quite pleased with the flavors. The tacos had just the right amount of spice. The only downside was definitely the wait, but it seems to be a local favorite, so it must be a good spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most delightful experience at Expresion Oaxaquena! The nachos smothered in mole sauce were a fantastic start. For my main course, I enjoyed a tlayuda topped with tasajo—it was simply delicious. The staff was friendly but a bit overwhelmed given how busy the restaurant was that night. I would recommend coming on a weeknight for a more relaxed experience, and be sure to try their horchata; it's refreshing and unique! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Expresion Oaxaquena is always a pleasure! The service could be faster during peak hours, but the authentic flavors of the dishes more than make up for it. The combination plates are incredibly generous. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy their rich mole sauce! " (*Curated Review*)

" My go-to restaurant for authentic Oaxacan food. The flavors are so rich and real. The tlayuda is worth every dollar, and I always leave full. I keep coming back because I know the food is made with love, but the service could definitely improve. Try to come early to avoid crowds! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited for a quick lunch. While the food was delicious, I had to wait a while to even place my order, as the staff seemed overwhelmed. However, when the food arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes. The ambiance was charming, making for a satisfying lunch experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" It has been a while since I last visited Expresion Oaxaquena, and I was reminded of why I fell in love with this place. The atmosphere is cozy, and the food is always served fresh. I ordered tlayudas and they were perfect—not too dry, just right! The only downside was the parking situation, but that's a common issue around here. Overall, a solid dining experience.
