"The “pizzeria” part in the name refers to the Oaxacan tlayuda, which is a crisp masa platform topped with an assortment that often includes black beans, avocado, crema, chorizo, and jalapenos — a quintessential street food in the capital of the state. This wonderful diner with murals and street views of the neighborhood offers a full Mexican menu." - Robert Sietsema
