La Flor Oaxaqueña’s menu offers a vibrant and authentic taste of Oaxaca, bringing the bold flavors of Mexico’s culinary heartland to Madera, CA. One of the standout items is their tacos al pastor, which perfectly balances the sweetness of marinated pork with the savory depth of its grilled preparation. The tacos de carnitas are another must-try, with slow-cooked pork that is melt-in-your-mouth tender and complemented by fresh salsas. For a more substantial dish, the mole negro is a rich and complex creation, where dark chocolate and a blend of spices coat tender chicken, offering an unforgettable experience.
The restaurant also shines with its tamales. Wrapped in a corn husk, they are packed with flavorsome fillings like chicken with mole or pork in red sauce, each bite bursting with authenticity. Another gem on the menu is the sopa de tortilla, a comforting and slightly spicy tortilla soup that is perfect for warming up on a cool day.
If you’re looking to try something unique, the tlayudas are a Oaxaca specialty—a large, crispy tortilla topped with beans, cheese, and various meats, offering a satisfying crunch with each bite. For those who enjoy seafood, the ceviche de pescado delivers fresh, zesty flavors with tender fish marinated in lime and mixed with tomatoes, onions, and cilantro.
For dessert, the tres leches cake is a sweet finish, its moist and creamy layers soaked in a mix of three types of milk. The drinks menu is equally delightful, featuring traditional options like agua fresca and horchata, perfectly complementing the rich flavors of the dishes.
Every item on La Flor Oaxaqueña’s menu tells a story of Oaxaca’s rich culinary heritage, offering a deeply satisfying experience for anyone craving authentic Mexican cuisine.
