It’s Mexican Oaxacan Arab Lebanese fusion cuisine on the corner of a little strip mall.
Pros: excellent falafel. Nice fast food.
Cons: other reviews said this was great for vegetarian/ vegan food, and I have to disagree with that. The only veggie main is falafel, so if you don’t like that, you’re out of luck. They have the typical Mediterranean sides that are vegan, but not exactly a meal, and really it makes less vegan options than most Mexican and Mediterranean places in Los Angeles.
Still, overall cute for a quick bite if you don’t mind fried food.

Fave spot in LA and order here at least 2-3x a week. Best, most creamiest hummus I’ve had in my life. Rice is cooked to perfection every time. Both their salads are delicious and refreshing, Tabouleh Oaxaca Salad is a must try. Taco plate with chicken and cauliflower is my go-to. Everything is fresh and packed with flavor. Prices are affordable/reasonable and portions are perfect. Owners are super friendly and you can tell they put a lot of care and passion into their food.

Combo plate beef, chorizo and chicken kabobs, meat full of flavor no overwhelming, salad so fresh and crunchy, hummus just on point you can taste the full flavor of the chickpeas definitely a place to come back and try more items from the menu

Like so many before me have already mentioned, food is a welcoming explosion of flavor in your mouth. I tried the “eggplant hummus”, falafel tacos, and cauliflower tacos as well. They were both very good. Price was reasonable, a great gem to the culinary community that is Boyle Heights.
Way to go…

So there I was, on my day off, thinking I would go to oaxacanville in koreatown to get a mid-afternoon lunch of some tasty mole without fighting with the crowds. Then I remembered it’s the beginning of the labor Day weekend, and driving on the freeway through downtown is a
terrible idea.
then was stunned to see much closer to me, that there was a oaxacan place in East LA, right across from the Malabar branch of the public library, no less. So far, so convenient, so I looked at the menu and got completely confused and then extremely excited by the fusion offered here — Lebanese and Oaxacan. I could eat chicken shawarma all the time if I could get away with it and here’s a place mixing it up and putting it in a taco. my head exploded and I got in the car.
this place has a great story of which you can read in any of the many accounts that are so easy to find on the internet. I ordered a mix of two chicken shwerma tacos and two vegan tacos, one with cauliflower and the other with felafel. The shwerma tacos had a sort of cotija sauce and tahini and to be honest were not as good as the vegan tacos, which were very good
.. . With the shwerma, something about the mix of the two sauces on the shwerma didn’t quite work and overwhelms the actual marinade of the shwerma. I am guessing that a burrito version of this would be better balanced, and I’m Keen to try.
I wanted to try something with cactus but I didn’t see any on offer, and I’d read about some chorizo dish that wasn’t on the menu that I should have asked for. I did order the cauliflower tabouli para llevar, along with the oaxacan hummus, which had a black bean base.
I’ve always wanted to like tabbouleh but it never has worked out for me. The very best tabbouleh I’ve ever had, even that I could take or leave and wouldn’t order more. it’s sort of what you order when you want the most healthy thing to try to balance out all the heavy things, and there’s not a shirazi salad on the menu.
I’m happy to report that the cauliflower tabbouleh and how it is made by these two geniuses have fixed whatever problem I had with tabbouleh, because this tabouli is very tasty.
But the true star was the oaxacan hummus, which was the best of all the items I ordered. It’s some of the most outstanding hummus I’ve ever had. I ate it all in one sitting without much embarrassment.
it was an extremely hot day and unfortunately the only seats are outside, but hopefully you can see from the photographs is a little Oasis of color and style in the middle of a pretty grim strip mall.
I had the Sandia agua fresca, too. It was really good. The pita bread was not.

It qas definitely a different experience. The chicken swarma taco was rich and very tasty. I had the beef kabob burrito. Rich flavors, every bite was full of flavor and spice. The papas preparadas are a must. We will be coming back.
