Mi Lindo Oaxaca, Oak Cliff’s beloved home base for tlayudas, squash blossom quesadillas and made-from-scratch mole, is closed.
If the Observer‘s Top 100 Restaurants ranking is any guide, this is the most disappointing restaurant closure of the year so far. Mi Lindo Oaxaca’s original location ranked No. 9 on the list, making it the ultimate Dallas underdog, the second-highest-rated Mexican restaurant behind Revolver Taco Lounge and the second-best restaurant south of the Trinity River after Lucia.
That makes expectations high for El Oaxaqueño, even if it won’t be serving freshly made mole or memelitas de chapulín.
As far as this author can tell, there is now no restaurant in Dallas serving tlayudas.
