HORRIBLE SERVICE SERVICIO HORRIBLE !!!!!! Vine a comer con mi mama (segunda ves). Al llegar no hay clientes , todas las mesas estaban vacias (No Clientes). Antes de saludar or decir hola , la mesera se aserca y dice que nos tenemos que mover a de mesa porque esa mesa era para mas gente ( repito no hay nadie ) El problema es que mi mama no puede caminar y anda con su scooter para su pierna y ella nececita espacio. Pero aun asi hizo que nos cambiemos de mesa. Que falta de compasion al cliente. Modo tan feo de tratar a le gente con discapacidad que viene a comer agusto. No se preocupan por el buen estar de sus clientes NO VUEVLVO A GASTAR MI DINERO AHI !!!!! read more

Grasias Yamel! Enchiladas de mole negro de Oaxaca y frijoles negros. Buen servicio muy atenta. Me gustó el mole. Thank you the enchiladas were so good. Just passed by and decided to try this place. I'd come again. read more

A small diner-like space. Casual service and you can just relax and eat. There's a Mole Negro Con Pollo where rivers of black mole run over a tender chicken breast and leg. Drag the warm corn tortillas through the mole - it's heaven. Dab a sizzle of the hot salsa on top. A single drop makes the mole come alive. The Goat Barbacoa Taco is a must. Each one is a foot-long tube of the tenderest meat, stewed so soft. Dunk in the consomme, and don't let a single drop go to waste. A full meal in each plate. You can't leave here not stuffed, and you'll never feel so good about being full. read more

I always come here for the food today was the last time coming here. My soup had a hair on it, I asked the lady very nicely if she can switch it out for a memela. The server told me that she could add the memela to my check but unfortunately can't take the soup out of my check. I have personally been a server in the past and everyplace I've worked from pops and mom's restaurants to franchised restaurants we do whatever the customer requests in order to have a happy customers. After that interaction with the server she came to the table with kind of an attitude. Never coming here again!! Siempre vengo aquí por la comida, hoy fue la última vez que vengo aquí. Mi sopa tenía un pelo, le pregunté muy amablemente a la señora si puede cambiarla por una memela. La señora me dijo que podía añadir la memela a mi cheque, pero desafortunadamente no puede sacar la sopa de mi cheque. Personalmente he sido un servidor en el pasado y en todos los lugares en los que he trabajado, desde los restaurantes de papá y mamá hasta los restaurantes franquiciados, hacemos lo que el cliente solicite para tener clientes felices. Después de esa interacción con la señora , ella vino a la mesa con una especie de actitud. ¡¡Nunca volveré a venir aquí!! read more

Small mom and pop place, great service as people.whonworks here are very nice and patient. Food is great, we had the beef soup (taste like home made soup) and tamales (they are not your typical sized tamales, they are huge!!!). read more

Though Las 7 Regiones may not look like much from the street, inside they're serving some delicious Oaxacan food. We enjoyed a tasty homemade huitlacoche (corn fungus--much more delicious than it sounds) quesadilla and a plate of chicken with black mole (deep, complex flavors). The prices were very reasonable. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful. We will definitely eat here again. read more

Best Sunday Brunch ever! Tried it this weekend for pickup and my order was ready in 15 minutes!! We ordered Tlayuda Suprema, Alambre and the Tacos de Birria soo bomb. We've been coming here for years and glad that they also finally have outdoor sitting available. If you want some authentic Oaxacan Mexican food this is the place! read more

They will not let you buy no beer if you don't have and ID with you...Make sure if you come to have an ID.. Supposedly they are the manager rules.. That sucks even you are on the age you are able to drink ..This happen to me when I came to eat dinner with my family. read more

First time at this place & they will definitely be seeing me MORE!! This place is small but cozy & very clean, nice decoration & about 9 tables & all of them were taken up, when we got there with a party of 3 but didn't have to wait for a table lucky enough we got one there wasn't a line. I got a tamale de mole & the cilaquiles AMAZING! The tamale is so delicious the mass is very nice & soft perfect texture & the mole sauce has just the right amount of sweetness. The chilaquiles are made with a nice tomato sauce perfect taste not to spicy & everything was served nice & warm. I can't leave without talking about their DELICIOUS HORCHATA served with sliced fruit, nuezes & I believe some strawberry flavoring so TASTYY! This place is very authentic & will defiantly have you wanting more! read more

Oh hole in the wall, do I sing your praises or do I water down my opinion of you just to keep you to myself?... Much like Ole Abe "I cannot tell a lie..." this place truly rocks my world. I come here for some QT with the family unit and we get the molcajete. For those who don't know what this is it's a big stone mortar. In this mortar they drop some salsa, some beautiful pieces of cheese, 4 garlic shrimp, some chorizo, green onions, two pieces of cecina (not my fave, but still good), grilled jalapeno, and... I think that's it... Since the mortar is hot, hot, hot CALIENTE the cheese melts nicely. YUM With this meal also come some bean sopes and beans and rice. I dare you not to appreciate the heartiness and flavors in this little stoneware treasure, I'll be surprised if you succeed... I've also had the tlayudas, we get them with just cheese and beans. I've tried them with the chicken but I'm really not a fan of chickeny chicken, so now I just leave it off. For those wondering: chickeny chicken is underseasoned chicken. So all you really taste is chicken, no flavors just the all naturel taste of nasty chicken. But I digress. I've also had the parrillada, which is the same feast as the molcajetes except it comes on a grill instead of stoneware. It was still good, but I felt the stoneware was much more flavorful. I think it's because the salsa didn't dry out like it did on the grill, instead it collected at the bottom where you could dip at your leisure. read more

Las 7 Regiones - La parrillada to the left, the molcajetes to the right. Same meats, different presentation. - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ooh! A new favorite!!!. I'm addicted to Oaxacan restaurants because food tastes more authentic than regular Mexican food restaurants. Oaxaca is a Southern state of Mexico and the dishes are not as influenced by American or European foods. This place is no taco bell or del taco so beware mild palates! Spicy means spicy! lol Parking may be a problem during busy hours. Parking & seating was quick in the evening. Lots of hand made corn dishes, yummy hearty soups, delicious tamales, black beans to die for, colorful ambiance, pleasant patient staff, clean bathrooms. Separate area is available for banquets. read more

One of my favorite Oaxacan restaurants, hands down! From the mole to the tlayudas, t's one of the few that continues to be authentic. If you are not familiar with Oaxacan food, there are authentic typical Mexican plates as well! The menu is in English as well, and can help you identify what each plate consists of. Oaxacan basics include: quesillo (string cheese), mole (spiced-based sauce), and tlayudas (big tortillas topped with blended beans, cabbage, quesillo, and your choice of meat). I have been coming here for the past 12 years, and service is always exceptional! read more

Amazing! Just found this place but the food and service is far superior to any other Oxxacan place out there. Was blown away by the Talcuda suprema. A true oxxican experience topped by outstanding service from the amazing staff. read more

Fist time here. The place is small but clean. Service is great, there was only one server but Leslie was super efficient. The food is fresh and delicious. I can honestly say this its as authentic as you can find in LA. Totally worth visiting if you are in LA. read more

"The mole had me at hello!" Food: My friend and I shared the fried crickets, memela, baracoa roja de chivo, coloradito mole, and horchata amore. (1) First time having crickets and dang, were these good! A crunchy texture with a chile con lemon flavor. Pop these suckers in and boom great source of protein for you bros out there. (2) The memela was nice but I felt the thick corn tortilla was a bit overcooked and became tough in the process. Also, wish there was more of the Oaxacan sausage which was very flavorful, the highlight of this dish. (3) Baracoa roja de chivo might have been my least favorite plate. The meat was very tender but it was lacking in the flavor department for me. I might just not a fan of a soup/broth kind of dishes. (4) The pork coloradito mole was hands down my favorite dish. Every bite was so rich with a hint of chocolate that I always enjoy in my mole. One of the dishes I feel in love with. Had to make sure my corn tortilla scraped the plate clean of all that mole. Coming back to get the chicken mole ASAP! (5) Boy, this horchata was not my amore. It looked lovely with its pink shade but I wasn't a fan of the nuts and little treats inside. This horchata was being a little extra for the wrong reason. I felt like the horchata itself was good on its own and didn't need the nuts and treats. Service: It was a packed house on a Friday night so it took a little longer for our food to come out. Good thing the chips held us over just in time for the food to come out. I appreciate it when the food came out all at once rather than one by one. There was one nice lady working in the front that really did a great job taking car of all the tables so much shoutouts to her for holding it down. Vibes: The vibrant colors inside had me feeling very cozy and comfortable on this hot summers night. I really dig the small decor on the wall and the white noise of the T.V in the background. Great little place to sit down a enjoy some delicious food! read more

The food is amazing.My favorite waitress is Paty she always so efficient and professional she knows my order by heart so I really don't have to worry when she is there as am picky with my food. She already knows how I order all my dishes and always on point love this spot read more

God I love Mexicans. I don't wanna make too redundant a review, but, as credit is due to the previous two reviewers (props to them) I nonetheless want to further emphasize the valid point that this is authentic Oaxacan food at a cheaper price than Guelaguetza. Not quite as good, but well worth the money. In fact, the authenticity of this place is quite pervasive, and I'd imagine the local Oaxacans coming here for a variety of reasons. The waiter did not speak english, so remember some key words like "agua" and "la cuenta". Pretty much everything on the menu was Oaxacan, only vaguely resembling "mexican" food. The enchiladas, for example, were constructed rather curiously with tortillas laying on the bottom of the plate, loads of mole on top, and a hunk of meat on top of it all. The meat was "Cecina", which was essentially a thin pork chop cooked in spices resembling a chorizo. So good. The Chips were meh- store bought bulk stuff...but the salsa was good. I must confess however, I am wary of reviewing places like this. Personally, I enjoy being the only white person in there probably all day. So while I recommend Las 7 Regiones, please don't make this your fixie squad's next hipster hangout. Luckily for me, white people are usually afraid of minorities. read more

Small place, equals authentic. Food has flavor and spice. Clauyuda is the perfect snack when youre in for a snack. Enmoladas are savory. Beer is available if you can't handle the Camarones. read more

We stopped by Las 7 Regiones yesterday and were dying waiting for our food to come, it seemed like it took forever! But after the food arrived I realized it was all worth the wait, they really put some loving attention into their food. We ordered a clayuda with quesillo (Oaxacan string cheese), black beans and veggies. This was hands-down the best clayuda I have ever had, it was super thin and crispy not the thick jawbreaker consistency of some clayudas. You have to try the huitlacoche enchilada (handmade tortilla filled with a sort of corn fungus) it was AMAZING! Not for the faint of heart with its weird black color and creamy texture, the huitlacoche has a really complex smoky truffle-like flavor. We also ordered the caldo de camaron (shrimp stew) and it totally blew me away. The bowl was enormous, with perfect ratio of huge prawns and fresh vegetables in a super delicious shrimp and tomato based broth. I love that it came with a plate full of chopped onions, jalapenos, cilantro and wedges of lime so you can customize the heat and flavor, kind of like at pho restaurants. I love this place, no frills, just really really good Oaxacan cooking with fresh ingredients. read more

Love this place! Food is awesome, the staff super friendly and accommodating. Lots of great options. Not a fancy place, but clean and for the more than 30 times I've eaten here it's always been great! Highly recommended!!! read more

Let's say someone becomes sick. And then, let's say that someone becomes obsessed with a certain type of food, like say, chicken soup, that will make them feel better. Now, let's say that person is unable to get that type of food due to their favorite samgyetang (see below review) being closed for renovations. Then, let's say that person is unable to get that food for a whole other 2 days! Grumpiness ensues. A long-winded intro as a way of saying this place saved me and my stuffy nose. Perusing Jonathon Gold's recommendations for the area, I found this place, which he claimed to have a decent Oaxacan chicken soup. It might have been my general desperation, but the soup was more than decent. It was my saviour! It came in a big bowl, with a half a chayote squash and a potato. The chicken is still on the bone, but they give you a half a chicken, give or take so no matter. I just peeled it off the bone and plopped it in. Comes with rice and then you garnish with fresh onions, jalapenos and a mound of cilantro. And, I swear it worked. Next day, bye-bye stuffy nose and scratchy throat. (Will write more later. We are definitely going back to try the mole and barbacoa). read more

Like this place. Authentic Oaxacan food. Love their tlayudas, molcajetes and horchata. Food has a really good flavor.

When you grow weary of Guelaguetza, try this place. Or better yet, come here first. It's deep in the Pico-Union, so don't say I didn't warn you. Beware of zombies. Yah, like my fellow below says, se arreglaron la horchata con tunas, the fruit, not the fish. Solid good food. Give these guys business. Make them famous like Guelaguetza. This is a good area for food. Check the others out too. Be brave. read more

I tried this place a few times. The food has good flavor and descent size. The customer service is where the minus stars comes in. Overall, food is good... read more

This place was awesome! I had the Tlayuda.....cause DUH, that's the first thing I think of when I here "Oaxaca's food." I was not disappointed. The meat was all extremely tender, the beans cooked in avocado, to give it that mother land taste, fresh cut avocado, the cheese was nicely distributed throughout the entire tostada. It was perfect! read more

1st of all parking sucks. You have to either find parking on pico or on one of the small streets around there. if they had parking they would def get 4 stars! If you walk in and see that it looks packed, dont be fooled! and think oh its full lets get out of here. They have more seating areas in the back. The food is great. I got 2 memelas. (google it ) Its sort of like a sope but bigger and flatter. It has beans and cheese on top as well as tasajo (meat) you can also get chorizo with it if you like. Stop by and give this place a try if you dont find anything on the menu that draws your attention order the memelas. Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back! hahahaha (limited to 1 yelper) read more

I been to 7 regiones a few times, the food is good but the service is slow. It always takes a long time and the girls serving do not seem to care. Prices are a little inflated considering they charge you almost 5 dollars for a tamal? I would suggest you try the Clayuda, or tlayuda(same in Oaxaca) It is made with giant tortillas(Tlayuda is the name of it), then they are asiento or pork lard and then they add pasta beans and quesillo. Your choice of meat and some cabbage. The best ingredient is the Tlayuda itself, since it is imported from Oaxaca, Mexico. A lot of things are changing in traditional Oaxacan cuisine, BC of FDA regulations, but most places like 7 regiones do their best to keep it as "authentic" as possible. I would recommend El rinconcito Oaxaqueno instead. Just my opinion. read more

best tlayudas!!!!!!!!!! I love this place!! way way way better than Guelaguetza!

This place is a fantastic restaurant! I've been here several times in the food is absolutely exquisite. They're fresh homemade quesadillas with corn fungus(huitlacoche) are just incredible. Their giant tamales wrapped in banana leaves are also incredible,Possibly the most interesting thing they have there are toasted grasshoppers with a little bit of lime and salt and chili .... YUM!!! It sound a little creepy but they're delicious and an excellent source of protein. I highly recommend this place! read more

I love the food of this place. Its amazing. It can be a bit pricy.i have tried almost everything on the menu, and is good. Staff can sometimes be a bit rude and takes them a while to go to bring you things to your table. But overall its great. There is enough sitting. Inside, and if your a big group definitely recommend goong all the way in back room read more

This is used to be my favorite restaurant. La weekend I went to have breakfast with my family. We order chocolate and my niece ordered agua de chilacayota, she found two pieces of bone inside the agua the chilacayota. Definitely I'm not coming back. read more

If you're looking for an authentic Oaxacan restaurant then look no further! The prices here are more reasonable than La Guelaguetza and definitely not crowded at all. We stumbled into this hidden gem before a Laker game, so if you're near Staples Center, this is a great pit stop. Definitely go before the sun goes down because the neighborhood is a bit scary but the food makes it all worth it. Their horchata is the best, just like how it is served in Oaxaca (with tuna (not the fish but the fruit) & pecans), their enfrijoladas, black mole, clayudas and tasajo took me back to our vacation in Oaxaca. There is no parking lot but you can find street parking directly accross the street. read more

The food is excellent, authentic and well priced. The red mole in the chile colorado is particularly good and our service was friendly and quick. If you speak any Spanish, be sure to use it. Only held back a fifth star because it's small and there isn't much in the way of ambience or frills. You go for the food, not much else. Highly recommended. read more

Review is long overdue! Amazing service with friendly staff and great food! It is the best place in LA for authentic Oaxacan food at reasonable prices. They have parking on the side and there is also street parking both meters and no meters near their parking spots. Give them a try! read more
