About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Our family was born in Oaxaca and migrated to the US in 1994. Ever since then, our goal has been to showcase not only our family recipes, but also the hard work and dedication that goes into each of them. Each year, we travel to Oaxaca, and hand pick our ingredients, and carefully select the people we partner with. Guelaguetza is a restaurant, boutique market, and advocates for Oaxacan culture located in the heart of Korea-town in Los Angeles. Our motivation behind our products is simple: uncompromising quality. The products found in our store have taken years of development, and we hope that when taking your first taste of our Mole, or your first sip of our Michelada, you are transported into what Oaxaca means to us...a true Guelaguetza.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Guelaguetza offers an authentic taste of Oaxaca with "amazing food," featuring standout moles and mezcal. The lively atmosphere, enhanced by a "very enthusiastic live band," is perfect for celebrations, although some may find it "too loud" for conversation. The "friendly, attentive" staff ensures a memorable dining experience.

    We were greeted promptly and seated on time from the friendly host. This was my first time here and it was a fun experience. It felt like I was on vacation in Mexico. The music was a nice touch. An authentic Mexican vibe for sure. The service was very good and the mole choices were bomb. My only complaint was the prices were quite steep for the portion sizes. I’d return again though. Thank you.

    The finest Oaxacan meal I’ve ever had and one of the finest meals I’ve ever had period. Treat yourself to the Festival de Moles.
