El Naranjo Review - South Lamar - Austin - The Infatuation

"The restaurant El Naranjo serves traditional Oaxacan food out of a bright, modern, and sometimes loud space at the bottom of a newish apartment building on South Lamar. The menu constantly changes, but you can count on certain dishes to always be there, like the ceviche de la semana, queso Oaxaca fundido, and an enormous tlayuda Oaxaquena, served with a fiery red salsa. The restaurant is probably most known for its homemade nixtamalized corn tortillas and traditional moles. We’re especially fans of the deep, rich, nutty mole negro that’s served with the expertly seared duck breast—it’s plated in a minimalist style, simply with rice. You’ll also find a long menu of mezcal-based cocktails, Mexican wines, and a boisterous brunch on Sundays (the best place to sit is at the sunny wraparound bar)." - Raphael Brion

I almost gave this place one star because of Jose! Older Hispanic guy with mustache and dark hair, wore a jean jacket. I did not see the listing for the 4516 S. Ashland location and google kept leading me here. The only reason I didn't give less stars because I see that Jose seems to be a good person. Obviously must me prejudice because he was friendlier to the Hispanic customers, yet he was nothing but stern to me. That's fine papa! I've always thought this was a nice place to visit. After passing by for so many years, I finally got my chance today. This place has a very nice spiritual atmosphere. The produce are well handled and fresh. I noticed a lot of mushy and browning fruits but it's a really nice market for the most part. On the other hand Jose seemed to be uncomfortable with me being in the store. I asked him if it was an avocado because that's what the sign said. He told me it was guava. I told him I take pictures because I write reviews. Idk, maybe he thought I was asking the cost of the guava. Because he responded with a sudden "It's $6 a pound." Then looked at me as if I would just be so surprised and run away from that price. I STILL BOUGHT ONE. When it was time to check out Jose was somewhat sharp with me. As he rung up the cost, he said the price with a tone, as if he was expecting me to turn it all down. Jose told me his name but wouldn't give me his last name. That's fine. He was nice enough to bag my items for me. My total was 13.26 for two mangos and a guava. This place is worth 4 stars. But if you can handle Jose's character, then yes, it's 5 star. The other Hispanic customers got smiles and brief remarks from Jose but NOT ME! Sheesh. (Most likely won't return.) God bless you Jose!
