The restaurant is very clean. The service was great. Out waitress was very nice. The food was the star of the show. Everything was absolutely delicious. I cannot wait to come back and try other things!!! I came with my friends since she's been here before. She came with her family and said we needed to try it. So here we are! I don't remember what I ordered but will revise one I got back to the menu. It was corn empanadas with squash and 4 kinds of cheese. What made it even better was the salsa. La Mestiza. Overall I would come back again. read more

Today I tried a restaurant I discovered through TikTok called Moles la Tia. This was my first time trying their food, and given the name, one would reasonably assume that mole is their specialty. Unfortunately, what I received was an insult to both the dish and the price point. I ordered Mole Manchamanteles to go--a dish that is not commonly found in restaurants and costs $25. What I received was laughable: three tiny pieces of chicken, dry and overcooked, drowning in a mole that was completely flat, bland, and devoid of depth or flavor. If you're going to charge premium prices, the food needs to at least meet a basic standard of quality. This did not. I rarely leave negative reviews because I understand how they can impact a business. However, this experience was so egregious that I felt compelled to say something. This place is robbing customers--not just with its inflated prices, but with shockingly poor execution and portion sizes that wouldn't satisfy a child. I did call the restaurant to express my disappointment. They offered a refund, but this was a carry-out order and I was already long gone. At that point, the damage was done. I hope management sees this review and takes it seriously, because what I experienced should not be happening to anyone. Until major changes are made, I would highly discourage anyone from eating here. Save your money. This is highway robbery disguised as cuisine. read more

From the Comal to the Corazón -- A Hermana Breakfast Delight I came here with my sister for a sweet sister morning breakfast, and it was such a delight. It had been almost 11 years since our first visit--back before COVID--and I'm so happy to say the food is still just as amazing. I had the huevos a la mexicana (diced onions, tomatoes, and jalapeños), and my sister ordered La Minerva--both were absolutely delicious. The mole is outstanding, rich and deeply flavorful, and the handmade corn tortillas are fresh and comforting. The café de olla is perfectly sweetened, and the horchata agua fresca topped with roasted pepitas is a must. Breakfast plates come with roasted house potatoes, beans topped with cotija cheese, freshly made corn tortillas, and a mini quesadilla--everything feels thoughtful, traditional, and made with care. The ambiance is beautiful--rustic Mexicano with mosaic tile details, warm décor, and Spanish rock playing in the background, which made the experience even better. Everyone was kind, welcoming, and provided great customer service. A special thank you to our server, Cristian, who was attentive and helpful. We learned the restaurant recently reopened after several years of remodeling and permits. There is limited parking in the back, with street parking available nearby. We gladly drove the distance just to eat here, and it was absolutely worth it. So grateful to have Moles La Tía back--this is a wonderful spot rooted in tradition, flavor, and heart. We look forward to returning soon. read more

So happy that Moles La Tia reopened after being closed for so long. This little restaurant is truly a gem in East Los Angeles and one of my family's favorites. I didn't find out until last month that it reopened but glad I was able to come out on a weekday and enjoy breakfast with the family again. It has not lost its touch at all and the food and service delivered yet again. read more

Service was slow even though the place was not full, the presentation was really beautiful and it was clean and bright inside. But the food didn't have enough spice, I ordered the 3 types of mole and there wasn't much difference between all of them.

Busy place that recently reopened.Modern decor with a positive ambiance.The service can be better. They forgot a few items. Lack of communication between employees. We wanted their horchata but of course it wasn't ready.Let's get to the good. I ordered eggs and pork rinds which were really good. Not the biggest portions but worth the price. Also tried their red chilaquiles with steak and no complaints. Also loved their coffee. Overall a good experience. Hopefully they figure out the kinks on our next visit. read more

My mom was very excited to hear this place reopened, so we went today to get some good food. Service was good, even though they were busy for Sunday, we were able to get seated in no time and the waitress' attention to us was about normal. I love the tiles on the wall and the music they play. Makes the authentic and delicious food even better. My favorite thing today (everything was great though) was the pistachio flan because it was so unique. Parking is limited so just be aware of that if you're going to make a trip out, but of course I think it is worth it. read more

My husband & I were so happy when we found out it reopened! We used to come here regularly before the pandemic & afterwards, we'd occasionally drive by with hope it would reopen. It seems like they're still transitioning or just running on Mexican time (I can relate). We arrived at 8a and no servers or cooks were here. One of the workers told us that no one had arrived yet so we left & as we were exiting ABC news arrived as well. We returned 20 minutes later & business as usual. Service was great & chilaquiles are still delicious. My only disappointment was the chilaquiles plate no longer comes with a mini quesadilla which was my favorite. The owner said they decided to remove it from this plate because it didn't make sense to have tortilla with tortilla, but it's included with the other plates or you can order separately. The place looks great & they remodeled the bathrooms which look beautiful. Can't wait to come back! read more

Finally this spot is open again and I had the opportunity to go and have some breakfast. I ordered the pipian chilaquiles w/asada & egg. Cafe de olla and horchata. The chilaquiles came with beans, potatoes and crema. They charge extra for the asada and egg but it's worth paying the extra. I love Pipian so the chilaquiles were delicious. The Horchata taste the same from 10yrs ago it was delicious 10/10. Cafe de olla was also 10/10. The service was great they were polite and very welcoming. Parking (street) is somewhat difficult in this area, I really do not know if there is parking in the back. My experience was lovely and I hope to be back soon. read more

I really wanted to like this spot but the prices were not good. 17 dollars for chilaquiles with no egg. Egg is 4 dollars more. Liliana's is 20.75 with meat. My husband got machaca con huevo and there was more huevo than meat. My daughter got French toast for 13 dollars only French toast no egg no meat. The food was okay but the prices were a little to high. And i been to similar breakfast spots and they are not this expensive for what you get. read more

The food is delicious, it's amazing. But the service is so SLOOOOOOW!...be prepared to wait.

They need more staff, you can tell he was trying his best to keep up. It was a very uncomfortable atmosphere. read more

We came on a Sunday morning. We were welcomed into a natural lit room with colorful seating and muted tones through out making you feel like you are eating at your tias house. I came across this restaurant on Tik tok announcing their reopening. There was plenty of seating. Service was kind and slow, which adds to the small business feel. The mole chilaquiles were delicious and plentiful! I recommend trying it along with their chipotle chilaquiles. The cafe de olla needs more work. It had a hint of being burnt. With milk, it toned down the flavor of being burnt. I would have given it a 5 if the coffee was better prepared. read more

Moles La Tia - Pork rind tacos - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Service was not good. It took about 15 minutes to get our order taken. There are also no substitutions or changes to the food. When our food arrived, it was cold. I ordered the "Los de la Casa de la tia" plate and it had like small strips of tortilla chips under the 2 eggs. I guess I expected the larger tortilla strips or a little more than 10 little strips. Took another 25 minutes to get our check and they charge you $3 extra if you're paying with a credit card :/ read more

This place popped up on my IG and had great reviews therefore I had to try it. It was not disappointing but not worthy of five stars. The dish recommended was the tri-color enchiladas. I ordered mine with chicken filling. The first enchilada I tried was the green one. Uhhh....YUM!!!! It tasted pretty close to my green salsa, the only difference was that this one had a creamy flare. As if they mixed the salsa with some sour cream. Very flavorful. The second enchilada took me by surprise. As soon as I took a bite I was thrown off. It was way too sweet for my palate. It had a sweet chocolate flavor with a spicy kick at the end that creeps up on you. I little too gourmet for me. The third "red" enchilada was a little bland in the flavor. It had no chile flavor at all. It taste more like it was dipped in a caldo de sopita. (Like the tomato sauce when you make sopita). The beans were peruano and also a little bland. The rice was yummy. It had a buttery garlic flavor. The restaurant was cute and inviting. The servers were nice. Expect to wait a long time. Would recommend to try, so you can see what the hype is about but I personally won't be returning. The prices are a little high. The cafe the olla was delicious as well as my desert. I ordered a pistachio flan. Not bad but not great. read more

It hurts to write this because I really liked this restaurant and was excited to come back when they reopened. After almost 7 years, we came back to celebrate my wife's birthday. I was happy to see that the restaurant and the decor looked the same, but everything appeared freshly painted and the colorful chairs and wooden tables looked brand new. I looked forward to immediately ordering the mole sampler with chips, but guess what...they don't have it anymore. In fact, they don't have chips at all! A Mexican Restaurant in East LA without chips?! The only dish close to a mole sampler is an enchilada plate with white mole, pipian red, and pipian verde. I really wanted to try the pistachio mole, black mole, and the poblano mole, but I had to settle on ordering a dish with one kind of mole and hoping family members wouldn't mind letting me taste their mole. As an extended family of 10, we have come to expect less than stellar service, especially with drink refills, and getting everyone's order out in a timely manner. We eat out as a party of 10 quite often, but I can say with confidence that the timing of bringing all of our food out was the worst we've experienced at any restaurant. Call us old-fashioned, but we always wait until everyone at our table has their food before eating together. My daughter and I received our plates first, and by the time everyone else had their food, nearly a half hour had passed, and my mole poblano was very cold. The other thing is that everyone who ordered the plate didn't receive their rice/beans and needed to ask the server to bring out what was forgotten. And that's the other thing: the portions are very small and for meals that cost $23-$27, one would expect to receive both rice and beans, like other Mexican restaurants. More than a few in our party wondered why certain people got rice and other beans until our server clarified that you either get rice or beans with a dish, even though no one asked us which they wanted as many didn't get side dishes until we asked about them. Even then, the beans and rice came on tiny dishes that looked like 1 cup worth of food anyway. And those at our table who ordered water were given small 6-ounce glasses and drank slow until my sister-in-law asked the waiter for water refills, and he brought out two glass bottles with an unusual amount of gas bubbles considering it's still water. On the positive side, the poblano mole and the Oaxaca black mole were delicious even though it was cold. And the homemade corn tortillas may have been the best I've had in a long time as they were fresh, sweet, and the only hot food I enjoyed for lunch. Overall, revisiting this restaurant left me feeling unsatisfied as the restaurant is being too stingy with portion sizes, not having free chips (even though they have amazing salsa) and making customers choose between a small scoop of rice or beans. Considering the hundreds of dollars spent on a lunch for 10 people, the food and table service wasn't worth what we received. I'm sorry to say that we won't be coming back again. read more

It's BACK!!! My favorite chilaquiles on the planet. Add carne asada. Green or red salsa. So happy that they're back. My wife & I used to go here all the time for breakfast. They closed down because of the pandemic & they're back! So stoked. Go there to support. You won't regret it. read more

I was looking forward to coming after all these years being closed... but I was so disappointed. I ordered the enfrijoladas plate and honestly nothing about was good.

I'm really disappointed in this place and I seriously dislike that I'm leaving this review. I want to give it less than 3 stars, but I'm trying to be somewhat understanding of how busy an establishment can get, especially on the weekends. We got there around 11am. The drinks were served fairly quickly. I ordered chips and guac with salsa to have something to munch on before the food came out. The chips took about 20 minutes to come out, and then add another 20 for him to bring back the salsas. It seemed like he had forgotten to put in some orders because the server still came back to confirm two plates. I order the "las enmoladas tricolor con pollo" and they came out with queso panela. By this point, I was frustrated and irritated. I remember being a server and wanting to fix issues even to the point where I would comp a meal because I understand making a mistake and it not being the customers fault. I picked this place for my bday brunch celebration with family, and left extremely disappointed. My stomach has been hurting since and I feel sick. I will not be returning. Oh and to add, this was the second time I decided to give this place another chance. Second visit confirmed I won't be returning. read more

Better than tamales lilianas just saying love the horchata it's like out of this world glad they returned

Bright restaurant star. For openers, ordered Cafe de la olla, reminded me of abuelitas. Ordered the Omelette w/spinach, mushrooms drizzled with their home made mole poblano - flavorful chiles and spiced didn't fail. Plate arrived with a cheese quesadilla and 3 freshly hand made corn tortillas. Also, tried the Chilaquiles y Mas, the moles red and green were excellent. Of note breakfasts are plated with sides of beans and home fries - minus tortillas. Am I returning, heck YES! read more

Food was good but minus 4 stars for the service. We were a party of 10 for my sister's birthday. It took 17 minutes from when they brought out the first play to when they finally brought out the last plate to the table. Even then the orders weren't complete, still had to wait for rice and tortillas and had to keep reminding the waiter that we were still waiting for things. I ended up canceling my horchata after I waited twenty minutes for it reminded the waiter twice for it. If you can't accommodate large parties don't take our reservation. Super stressful experience made it hard to enjoy the food. I felt really horrible for recommending the place. Also, used to be better before the reopen. More menu choices before and for sure better service. Never going back again. Also turn on the AC! Suuuuper stuffy. read more
