The best steak tacos I have ever eaten in SF. The flavor profile of a high end restaurant in Mexico. The chicken in Mole was also to die for. And without the ridicules prices of some SF Mexican restaurants.

The huge Mezcal collection was the primary draw for me, but Donaji had amazing food and decorum as well. Incredibly colorful interior surrounds you while you enjoy a flight of mezcals before diving into delicious tacos or queso. Look forward to coming back for the Mole.

7.5 or maybe 8. Amazing. Veggie tlyaudia was favorite, mole enchilada was nice and light, mahi tacos were great and filling, queso fundido was solid

We weren’t planning on going here but changed our mind mid way and I’m happy that we did. The service was excellent, the food was good and the mezcals were mind-blowing
We joined the donaji mezcal club because why not, it’s a pretty awesome concept and I’m not saying no to another shot of mezcal. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting SFvisiting.
Note: The quantities are good so be careful about ordering too much food. One entre is pretty filling for one person

So my choices were Italian, Thai or Oaxaca. That is a wide spread of cuisine by location and taste. As I walked by all three places, the menus at all three were enticing, but what drew me to Donaji was the liveliness inside. No regrets I always wanted to try food from the Southern Mexican region plus they have a pretty solid bar to go along with their food.
We kept it simple ,
Guacamole with chips and grinded crickets, cauliflower tacos and braised rips with corn.
The guacamole was spot on , I wish the crickets were served as a whole piece but grinded. The cauliflower tacos, I give them a nice. Crunchy good flavor but the highlight was the braised ribs. They melted on my tongue and the mole was not overpowering the ribs but ever so slightly supporting them. The corn was a nice way to round out the various flavors and yes worth mentioning are their margaritas. Haven’t had as good as last night since my last visit to Mexico.
Congrats chef well done

good spot for all classic oaxacan dishes, not greasy and cleaner than other spots which I appreciate. if you want your birria dripping this is not the spot. the tortillas are soft and made fresh, the seasoning overall was lacking a bit.

Modern Mexican food. I was a big fan of this place. We ordered the mole and the birtia tacos. Both were delicious.

Grapefruit cocktail? Solid. Cauliflower tacos starter? Looked promising but zero salt, zero seasoning. Just about passable. And then… it all went downhill.

The chicken mole? Thin, dark broth trying to pass as mole. No richness, no flavor, no depth — not even a whiff of grandma’s kitchen. The Tlayuda — the so-called Mexican pizza — was all show, no flavor. Just a big crunchy base with nothing going on.

And let’s talk about the biggest oxymoron of the night: calling this Oaxacan cuisine. If this is grandma’s recipes, grandma forgot how to cook.

And of course, my brother and sister from SF are out here hyping this up like it’s some hidden gem. Michelin star or not, if this is the kind of taste they’re promoting, we’ve got a real problem. Mission high? Nah. This was Mission low.

Taco Bell makes yummier food. There, I said it.

Really good chicken mole enchiladas. The mole is a bit spicy and sweet. I do wish they came with rice. Had a reservation for two outside but was able to get seated inside with no problem.

The vibes of this restaurant were really nice. We were able to reserve last minute tables which is nice. Overall the food was quite good and tasty but I personally didn’t enjoy the cricket flavor. Everything seemed to be cooked and seasoned well though.
