Café Guanaco la Oaxaqueña

Best I’ve had in this valley! They taste wonderful and make me remember the papusas I had in El Salvador! I recommend these to all those people who want exceptional food, that also includes being super authentic!

The food was good. Not disappointed. Nice service. I got the pupusa loca and it was big (I put my hand above it to show the size.., and Magnum (icecream) Bar. Since I ate the icecream while waiting for the food, I ended up eating about half of the pupusa loca, possibly the size of 3-4 regular pupusas, which they also have, I just like trying new things, and that was the one I tried. You can choose up to 3 fillings with it. Mexican (state of Oaxaca) and El Salvadoran (Salvadorian?) food! It's like 2 restaurant's in one. They have a tiny store/shop in there, too, mostly kind of gift shop like & kitchen items.

We ordered pupusas, and all the flavors were delicious. The size was perfect, they were fresh, and the price was very affordable. We would definitely return to this place.

This place is the real deal. If you want some good high quality food this it the place to go! Everything I’ve tried there is always fresh and you can tell they make it with love. 10/10.

Really good authentic Mexican food. We tried several dishes and they were all fantastic. The portions are large so you may want to consider splitting a meal if you're not a heavy eater. We will be back for more!

Must dine in and enjoy Mexican food as you may never have had it before! Oaxaca is a state in Mexico and here they are so authentic in the state's dishes! Just amazing, bold flavors that remind me that as a Mexican American I really don't know authentic Mexican food other then what I was raised with in my home. So glad we have this restaurant that celebrates Oaxacan food in a beautiful, delicious, authentic way! Can't wait to share this with friends who are ready to diversify their knowledge of what Mexican cuisine is.

The staff are always friendly and attentive. The food is delicious, especially their traditionally oaxacan dishes like tlayudas! My personal favorites are their torta with tasajo (perfect size for lunch) with french fries and the jalapeno pupusas. I recommend this to my friends and family and anyone asking if they should try it.
