- Austin ChronicleJune 17, 2013Chef Iliana de la Vega operated a world-famous restaurant in Oaxaca. Lucky for us, she made the move to Austin, where her classically modern restaurant and traditional Mexican cuisine are a huge hit.
- Kingsley YoungerNovember 25, 2014Featured on Eat St. The best Mexican food in Austin (maybe even in the US) and it's in a truck. Her name is the Iliana De La Vega and she is not just an expert but the expert in Mexican cuisine.
- Serious EatsFebruary 22, 2013El Naranja has impressive tequila and mescal collection; all can be shaken into margaritas (though choosing an ultra high-end one may make the bartender cringe). Start with the $7 house margarita.
- Some of the best Mexican food around from one of Oaxaca's best chefs. There's a different mole every month--check for special menus too!
- Erika LoyaSeptember 11, 2016We've had Huevos Benedictos, Tacos Dorados w/ potato & goat cheese, Enchiladas Granatizadas, & Enfrijoladas. Pan Dulce made daily Everything is Delicious!!!
- Kingsley YoungerNovember 25, 2014Apparently the mole sauce could be made out of 100 ingredients. Illiana says forget what you know about Mexican food because it is natural, lots of vegetables and fresh.

- Crystal M.September 22, 2012¡Excelente! This former food truck (only in Austin !?!)i is now a fantastic traditional Mexican restaurant. Highly recommend the Chile Poblano Relleno de Picadillo Oaxaqueño.

- Cooking ChannelFebruary 28, 2012Acclaimed chef Iliana de la Vega serves up authentic Oaxacan cuisine at her El Naranjo mobile trailer in Austin, Texas. We suggest the Mole Rojo.
- Ricardo GuerreroApril 6, 2013Try the Enchiladas Verdes - #NOM! Veggie-stuffed enchiladas with salsa verde & avocados to replace the cheese & cream. Gluten & dairy free. That's how I roll!

- Alencia JohnsonJuly 13, 2013Amazing!! Gazpacho was perfection and its a great place for large parties.
- Chrystal PaulosMay 12, 2018Mole was very good but I’ve had better. Staff was nice and food ok. I like the Indian food down the street better and it’s cheaper than El Naranjo...
- Marina K.March 15, 2011Mix & match both the tacos and tacos dorados. The portion size is just right for trying them all.
- Teresa Carbajal RavetJuly 29, 2011Loving this trailer kitchen / cottage remodel Oaxacan treat! Read more
- Paul BradleyJanuary 20, 2013Food is only mediocre, especially for the price. Service could be better. "Specially" drinks are around $11.
- Lauren KahnJune 30, 2012The tres leches is more like angel food cake with pretty icing over it. Skip it.
