Real de Oaxaca - chilaquiles - Mexican Near Me - Lynwood, California

We just got out of Sunday mass and my wife said let's go to La Huasteca in Lynwood for brunch. Well low and behold, La huasteca is gone. We saw this other place El Real de Oaxaca so we said let's try it. Well..... shoulda just went home. Two stars for service. Berths our server was nice and sweet. Was patient as we took a while to figure out what we wanted. My wife got a Naranjeada, orangeade with mineral water. Well, it was Tang with mineral water. To top it off it was almost flat probably from them wishing the Tang powder in the glass. Not worth $5. Skip it. Better off getting a glass of water, squeezing in the lime that comes with it and ask for a sugar packet. That would probably have been better. So we ordered the mole before and the salsa con carne. The mole negro was just ok. But it has a weird spice that was overtaking the sweet mole flavor. The chicken itself tasted like it was just boiled in plain water and then they poured the mole on top. The pork ribs with salsa roja. We're just ok. Rice plain. Black beans tasted kinda canned. The giant corn tortilla tasted pretty flavorless. Overall all this was a huge miss. Ambiance used to be better and I'd says good as well when it was Guelaguetza. Don't say I didn't tell you so... read more

Came here for a group dinner to celebrate a graduation. I called ahead for a reservation since we were a big group and it was no problem. We arrived early evening on a Friday and I wasn't too busy. We ordered Horchatas and a Cafe de olla. Drinks were perfect and not overly sweet. We got a couple of Queso Fundido Con Chorizo Y Champinones which was served with large fresh tortillas. They were delicious and the perfect starter - highly recommend! My husband and I each ordered mole. I got the Mole Negro, the house special, with chicken breast. The portion was generous and it was very good but on the sweeter side. My husband got the Mole Rojo with chicken breast and it was more savory with a little spice. I loved both! The dessert sampler at the end was amazing and gave everyone what they wanted. It had flan, arroz con leche, fresas con crema, and plátanos. read more

Like always a good spot for enmoladas. They are one of my faves. Service was exceptional, she was quick and very friendly (Thank you Bertha!!!!) my mom loved the chile rellenos and my dad loved the Tlayuda. The atmosphere is nice but a little too dark for me. It almost seems like it's a place to bring someone you don't want no one seeing you with. If you know what I mean, lol. read more

Entering the place you feel like you are entering Oaxaca! Cook making fresh tortillas and the smell of home made food. We went for mole and boy did we get some great items. Don't look at the bland looking white chicken breast...trust me, when you grab your piece of tortilla and the. Put the chicken that shreds easily the fun begins! Try a little of the dark or the rojo my favorite, the. There is a spicy one but I don't eat spicy and I was able to handle it. Next you can try the Colorado flavor and that's good too and it came with rice for $40. My mom had a Chile relleno and my son a quesadilla. I ordered nopales and cheese and I was able to share with the table, looking back we did a taste test purchase and we were happy with everything, we would like to go back and have drink special for the happy hour and desserts. They have some high end tequila but went for cafe de la olla no creamer needed. They also have Mexican sodas or streaming soda. My son liked the French fries too! Next door is yogurt land and that was fun too! Front parking and accessibility! Also a carousel down the corridor in the middle of the plaza. Great memories made this day! read more

Real de Oaxaca - Different mole sampler with chicken and one huge tortilla! - Mexican Near Me - Lynwood, California

Real de Oaxaca is located in this adorable historical plaza in Lynwood, where we stumbled upon a super cool cultural dance ceremony on our way to the restaurant. We decided to stop by in a bit of a rush, so we let our server know that we were on our way to a concert, and she delivered the fastest service we've ever had. Thank you, Maggie! The horchata con tuna y nuez was super unique, the cafe de olla was delicious, and the bartender was generous with the margaritas. The carne asada was very good, the guacamole was great, and the handmade tortillas were well worth the extra charge. We'll definitely be back to eat again and check out the Mercado! read more

I always came here with my dad growing up and I always love the food. I wouldn't say it's authentic, but it's very similar. The service is great typically I'm treated with hospitality every time I go there and I enjoy my time. I would recommend if you're tourist or with family just to spend time. read more

The quality of the food is average, the flavors lacked salt and were very bland, especially the mole on both the tamal and the mole negro plate. The prices reflect mostly the ambiance of the restaurant than they do the quality of the food. Tortillas are not included with any dinner plates and are an extra charge, the cheese on The Tlayuda is also an extra charge, the size of the water is about 20oz. They also tried to sell us cheese to go. 2/20! Went here for my bday got to eat at this fancy place but the quality of the food will not bring me back:/ read more

This place used to be really good but over the years it's just gone downhill. The past two visits they haven't brought out the chips and mole that they always used to bring out with our order of drinks. The friend I go with is super disappointed. I'm a little butt-hurt too but apparently it was the owner's decision not to serve them anymore. It was literally a small plate of chips with some mole de coloradito drizzled on top, sprinkled with a little queso fresco. Literally every Mexican restaurant I know of serves free chips and salsa. No bueno. I was not impressed with our most recent visit, (03-12-22.) I ordered my usual, the Enchiladas de Coloradito with Oaxacan String Cheese and Cecina, (pork.) My dish wasn't even hot. It was luke warm at best. My cecina wasn't fresh as you can see in my recent uploaded pic of the dish. I don't think any of the food was fresh, otherwise it would have been hot. They were getting ready to close and sweeping the restaurant and shuffling around the chairs which made a lot of noise, while there were still roughly 30 people in the restaurant. That's super unsanitary because people are still eating while they're sweeping and kicking up dust and stuff. Super gross! We won't be going back for a while. Not until we see their reviews get better. We are posting this review in hopes that the restaurant will see the feedback and hopefully they can make the necessary changes to make it better. read more

Our experience was 5 stars hands down. Antonio, our server was so thoughtful and considerate. We had questions about the different mole's and he brought out a sampler to help us decide. All the mole's were delicious. We went with the dark mole. First restaurant where I'd come back for the mole specifically. My mom and Tia's mole is hard to beat I'm surprised by their 3 and half start rating. We went when it was not busy. Perhaps consistency and quality suffers during busy hours read more

Sad days Ordered the tlayuda. Meats were dry, dry, dry. Coloradito had chicken that was also overcooked and mushy. The mole, nearly flavorless. It was sold as the spicier version of mole rojo, but had no spice, was very sweet. The horchatas were good. Expressed dissatisfaction with the meals a couple bites in - to which we only got a shrug. Guess customer satisfaction went out the door with the chef. Not very many customers inside. Wish I would have read the memo... read more

Not worth coming to this place, food is really expensive and the food was bland. The food lacks a lot of flavor. We were a party of 17 and not one of us enjoyed the food. The only good dish was the mole but for the price I wouldn't come here. In the end, they charge us almost $130 in tips for a mediocre service. They didn't even offer us water napkins. The only thing they did was try to sell us their overpriced products. We all left disappointed and won't come back again. read more

The most expensive beans and rice ever. I brought my family thinking it was going to be a good experience but unfortunately the food was expensive and horrible. $140 for a family of 3. read more

The ambiance is fun. The mescal drink I had was terrific. And we had a grasshopper dish for an appetizer that was pretty good. But our entrees were barely edible. I had a dish with cheese and chorizo and the chorizo had a dirty taste that I didn't like at all and I love chorizo. The guacamole was bland and flavorless. My dinner friends all said their entrees were bad. I'd recommend this place for drinks, but for any real food I'd give it a pass. read more

Great find here as MOLE with Chicken is one of my favorite dishes and to know they have 4 different styles of Mole, I can't wait to come back and try them all. Server was as great and you can't forget the Cafe de olla, fantastic true OAXACAN style dishes. read more

I went to eat here with my 100 yo grandmother and mother. 1. They sat a party that came after us before they sat us down and did not ask us if we wanted to sit inside our outside. When I asked why they said it was because of my grandmother. That is elderly discrimination. 2. We ordered the queso fundidio with chorizo. It was hard and cold. The tortillas they gave us were also cold. When I informed the waitress, she offered to take it back and reheat it. To which I responded that it was not hygenic especially since we had tried it and the pandemic. We asked for a new order or to take it off the bill. They did not bring us a new order and billed us for it. 3. The entree we ordered with steak was hard and overcooked. We could not eat it. Overall the service was terrible as was this food. read more

Parking: Theres lots of parking in the Plaza Mexico Food: was okay, large portions. Good if you love mole. Service: I didn't think it was the best. Came on a Saturday evening with my friend and there were three parities including us that arrived at the same time. My friend and I were clearly second and the server asked us and the third party who had arrived first. Then when we were deciding on what to order first the waiter asked is 3x in a span of 2 min if we were ready to order. The next minute we were and it took him 4 min to come back. The food takes a while to prepare because it is fresh, which is understandable. It also took us a while for us to get our checks. The people were trying to be nice and courteous though. I personally feel like I wouldn't come back, but that's just me personally. read more

This used to be my favorite restaurant in Plaza mexico, but now that has changed due to my recent visit. We ordered the tlayuda guelaguetza and the Mole coloradito, The food is absolutely bland, not cooked right, and I can certainly they cut corners with the meat especially. I dont think I'll be coming back anymore read more

The restaurant we were going to was closed, so then we ended up here. I have passed by many times but never tried it. As soon as I walked in I was already impressed. This restaurant is a lot bigger than what I expected! Two floors with live music in the weekend. The waiter that assisted us was very nice, polite, attentive and very helpful. I left very pleased with the good customer service. As for the food I never had tried Oaxacan food, so wasn't sure what to order. I ended up ordering a plate with various type of meat "Especial de carne" comes with rice, salad, black beans, chorizo, and two others that I dont remember the meat , as well as with some string cheese. It was a huge plate, worth every dollar. We also ordered the Caldo de res (beef soup), cafe de olla, and the chicken kids plate which comes with fries and soup. I tried the chicken that came with the kids order and it tasted better than I expected. They, also give you the option to either get the regular corn tortillas at no extra charge or get one big hand made for $2.50 extra. We got an order of both type. The hand made tortilla was delicious, the black beans that typically I do not prefer were delicious, the rice, the meats, everything was soo good and fulfilling! I was unable to finish that huge plate and tortilla. The coffee was bomb too. Overall, this location exceeded my expectations, was delicious and the customer service was on point. By the way, the restaurant was nice and clean including the restrooms! Looking forward to my next visit. If you have not tried it , try it! The menu has a little bit of everything Oaxacan style! read more

I use to love this place but with time its gotten bad! Due to pandemic they do take orders by phone for pick up. Parking for the restaurant was filty, not their fault but can check from time to time. Spoiled food was on floor that looked like it had been there for days, yuck! Already being disgusted, I was in for a couple plates of cheese enchiladas and a ball of oaxaca cheese and i was charged above $70! Woah! I understand times are tough, but really! Very disappointing experience for someone that use to regularly come in and drive over an hour to support the business. Pros: Beautifully decorated, friendly staff, Cons: Overpriced food, bad quality, slow service , dirty parking slots Take your pick! read more

Come here if you wanna spend 3.99 for a side of sour cream and 9 Dollars for 3 flour tortillas. Ridiculous.

With this place I had the worst experience of my life, the first thing I touch upon entering, they receive you very reluctantly and with a face that my God, another thing is that the place is very small and for more than 3 people the place does not the service and price of things is adequate it is very expensive I say for the taste and quality of food because in reality this salty has nothing to know and the service of these people is the worst honestly if you want to waste your money better throw it in the garbage arias the best option than to come to this place read more

The worst service I get the server was female bad attitude terrible hospitality We where for dinner March 26th 2023 Sunday read more

For starters I didn't even know what happen to my waitress. She left and didn't tell me and then the other waiter I asked to help me told me to ask my waitress (with attitude) . I told him I've been waiting for like 20 mins and I don't know where she went sooo then he proceeded to help me. 2. The champurado was really bad. It wasnt sweet at all. Only two of us got champurado and then the other two champurados didn't come out until I was done eating my food and that was after asking two waiters about what happened to them. 3. Hot chocolate (water based ) tasted burnt and my sister had to ask for a water instead. (Can't mess that up) 4. Basically hospitality was trash I just wanted to leave at this point nobody checked on us. My clayuda was as big as my plate with the meat being a sliver of tasajo wth! Never coming back here again!! read more

There's nothing worse than to arrive at a restaurant you've been eyeing for a while only to find out that they're not open. This restaurant needs to fix the times they say they're "open". Today is Saturday. It's 10am . And they're not open. The times stated on Yelp are not correct. This place doesn't open until 11 on Saturdays. read more

Great customer service . Great good and great ambience. Everything was great for us . The tlayuda was delicious , I finished it lol , the cecina and tasajo were bomb. The cafe de olla was so good, had to take some to go . Definitely worth a try and very good Oaxacan food restaurant . read more
