This was my first time actually trying mole out and it was extremely delicious! The complimentary…read morechips in mole sauce was a fun twist on chips and salsa. My dad ordered the Ceviche Nayarit, I ordered the Enchiladas La Casita Mexicana and my wife ordered the Enchiladas Tres Moles. The ceviche tasted fresh, but not really my favorite dish were had. I would say the Enchiladas Tres Moles was my favorite dish we picked. My only problem with that dish was that I wanted more. The plate they served it on made the 3 Enchiladas look small. Customer service was great. Food was great. The interior/exterior was really nice. If you have dogs the patio section in the back is where you'll want to eat from. Great experience. I'd come here again.

This place is not bad, but I went in expecting more. I heard about the owners, former chefs or…read moresomething, not 100% sure BUT something along those lines, they were making OG mole so I had been wanting to go there. I forgot exactly what I had, I want to say it was bistec ranchero or something like that. it was good, nothing bad, but also felt average. They served us chips with mole on top and I was like, why did they pour mole all over, bring a little bucket of mole and let me dip it on the side. That's what a good Christian would do, but no, they went with an anti-Christian practice here, communist almost. don't assume I want everything with mole. I would have been ok with it if the mole had been bomb ass good, but it was ok. I had heard this place used original Oaxacan mole or something so I was hyped. My wife had some eggs with whatever the heck a Filipino woman orders at a Mexican place and she's was fine. I feel bad about this review, maybe this place is a victim of its former reputation, and I was expecting very good Mexican food and all I got was OK Mexican food. Also, for a true Mexican spot, you need to have café Mexicano, with canelita and the waiter told me they didn't have any. How can this be? I do not approve. Maybe if you are white or non-Mexican or a fake Mexican, I think you would have a different opinion of this place, you might think is great, just like El Torito is. Am I confusing this place with some other restaurant because the place I heard of was in Bell and the cooks/chefs were this renowned chefs and I don't think that's the case here or now. For sure, this place is not bad and I don't think you will get bad food, it was just underwhelming.

Do you have a restaurant woven into your family's history to the point that it feels more like a…read morememory you can step back into rather than just a place to eat? For us, that's El Ranchito in Huntington Park. It's a family-owned, authentic Mexican restaurant that has had the community on its back for the last 6 decades. They hand-make the tortillas right in front of you, serve up fresh chunky guac, and make their iconic Mama Avila's soup fresh daily. It's rare that a soup has me hitting a stank face, but here we are. The Camarones al mojo de ajo is a can't miss appetizer. It's succulent shrimp sauteed in butter and fresh garlic, made to be eaten with the piping hot homemade tortillas. They have all the traditional Mexican dishes, my brothers go to is the chile relleno, but I always just run the fajitas. I'm sure I'll get clowned for this, but nothing heals my trauma and existential dread like a plate of sizzling fajitas. My pops has worked in the area for longer than I've been alive, so El Ranchito has seen every iteration of me, and of my family. For that, I am grateful. I'll be coming here until the wheels fall off. EL RANCHITO ALL STARS!!! IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

The restaurant is small, quaint, and full of heart, the kind of place where you can feel the love and care that goes into every dish.

This spot delivers big on quality and authenticity. If you're craving real, soulful, homemade Mexican food and a genuine, personal dining experience, Rajas y Crema is exactly where you want to be.

We came for breakfast and I love that they open earlier than most places in the area. As we walked in we were greeted by a super friendly waitress whom welcomed us and made us feel right at home. I ordered Huevos Rancheros and my wife ordered chilaquiles. The presentation was phenomenal. I couldn't wait to sink my teeth into this delicious looking meal. Once I did, it did not disappoint. The food was delicious. My order came with two eggs on a tostada with a very tasty sauce all over them, it included beans and some very tasty potatoes. The final touch was a delicious quesadilla with a corn tortilla folded in half. It reminded me of, "El Tacazo". Excellent Mexican breakfast. The place itself was very clean and nicely decorated. It was inviting and left me wanting to come back. I can't wait to return and try the other things on their menu. Great find and to think that I was so close to it on so many occasions. Will definitely be back.

This Michelin-recognized restaurant truly feels like stepping into a small Pueblo in Oaxaca, from the beautiful decor to the rich aromas coming from the kitchen... The restaurant is cozy, colorful, and very authentic, with both indoor and outdoor seating available.. The star of the menu is absolutely the mole... I can completely understand why they received Michelin recognition because the flavors tasted so homemade and comforting, like something my mom or grandma would have spent all morning preparing from scratch... One thing I really loved is how customizable the mole dishes are. You get to choose from different regional styles of mole, ranging from sweet to spicy, and pair them with your choice of protein like chicken, steak, or salmon. It's such a unique and fun dining experience... Before the meal, they brought out chips topped with different mole sauces as an appetizer, and honestly, that alone was incredible. Every plate coming out of the kitchen looked fresh, authentic, and packed with flavor.. You can either order at the counter when you walk in or order directly from your table, which makes the experience feel casual and welcoming.. Overall, this place is a gem for anyone who appreciates authentic Mexican cuisine and especially traditional mole... I'll definitely be coming back !!!
