Tortas La Hormiga — Restaurant in Oaxaca

Hmmm, everyone mentions that this food truck served the best tortas In Oaxaca but we’ve had Don Chilios in Guadalajara so this was an interesting comparison. There was no contest, we had the Cubana and the huevos jamond. They were both a bit dry and the jamond didn’t have much flavor. The chorizo in the Cubana was better but I’d Don Chilos is a 10, this is a 3, it needed a much more substantial dressing or aioli sauce. The chorizo was flavorful and the buns were warm and crispy which was...

The tortas were delicious! The stand is right in front of a park where there are lots of trees and benches. The tortas are an affordable lunch option! The bread was soft and crispy (yumm!!) and they were well packed. They are definitely not like tortas ahogadas they are dry BUT they’re stuffed with good portions of meat and they put pickled veggies. I had the torta cubana. Would definitely come back...

I love a stop in the park to have a torta. They’re delicious and affordable. I get the pierna or milanesa. Their escabeche and pickled potatoes are tasty.

The people are nice and get your torta made pretty quickly. Expect a line when they are busy. On Wednesdays, when there is no street food, you can find them a block north and around the corner.

Get a drink with your torta and enjoy it in...
