Oaxaca to San Francisco Owner and Chef Isai Cuevas is a native of Zimatlan, Oaxaca Mexico. Donaji's Menu is Maiz
( Corn) Forward. Crowd favorites are Mole, Tlayudas and Tacos.
The tamales--pork and the poblano/cheese option--were fantastic. Pork: greesy but you'll want to take each bite with hot sauce and the pickled cabbage. The paper wrapper alone had that tell-tale greasiness but it wasn't damaging at all---in fact? The right amount of fat needed to blister through a hangover. It's a highly recommend.
Pozole was ok. Ha! Kidding. It wasn't over the moon either. But decent.
The rojo (red) broth: Medicinal, but the white meat chicken a little dry----hey. It's white chicken meat. It's also clean and organic. So if you like that stringent feel, then this is your jam. Otherwise you'll be wondering why they didn't have a dark meat option.
Guacamole: brilliant, deep, fresh, clean and pristine it's laden with picked red onions so be weary of that. But, it's a straight up guaca that can be used in condiments or an afternoon avocado toast if you're frugal.

I LOVED the mole, it had just the right amount of sweet and spicy for me -Enchiladas de Mole
But I was disappointed by how watered down the Iced Horchata Cafe & Oaxacan Hot Chocolate were.

The Egg & Chorizo Oaxaca Burrito was fantastic! Was a pleasant super to find that the burrito was made using a homemade corn tortilla.
