Oaxaca (Wa Ha Ka) Mexican Grill Opening in January
Chipotle… Qdoba… Baja Fresh… and now this. Signage has gone up next to Yushi, on 47th btw. Park+Lex, for a new place called Oaxaca (Wa Ha Ka) Mexican Grill. I can’t seem to find much about this place online, although it may or may not have a location in San Francisco. There is a website, and they already have Facebook and Twitter accounts (natch), but none of them have any useful info. Oaxaca is known for their various moles, and grasshopper tacos- although I’m not holding out hope that some new Midtown fast food chain is bringing the real deal for less than $10. Anybody heard of this place before? Info is welcome in the comments… in the meantime, the rest of us will just sit here mildly interested. (Thanks to Lunch’er “Yelena” for the photo.)

Interesting… let us know if it’s the same logo as the photo above.

Chipotle, Qdoba, and Baja Fresh are nothing but generic chain food. I hope this one is different. Give me a real hole-in-the-wall Mexican place or Taco Bell instead!

RockCenter–are you perhaps thinking of Zocalo? The GCT directory (http://grandcentralterminal.com/go/dirListing.cfm?FL=All) doesn’t list Oaxaca as a tenant.

The sign brought to you by Hooked by Phonics does not bode well for chapulines.

I was trying to think of what to say about that sign, but Steveroller nailed it! LOL

@Wade: CRAP, I meant Zocalo!!!
But I imagine this should be good…if you’re:
a) next to Yushi, and
b) in the Park Ave area in midtown,you have to be good.
Hey korafotomorgana, did you go to Zocalo?

@stevenp have you ever been to Taqueria y Fonda la Mexicana on the UWS? They’ve been remodeling their main space, but their next door space is open — best Mexican food I’ve had in NYC, possibly ever!
Hey Zach,
There is an Oaxaca in Manhattan; the restaurant’s in the Grand Central Terminal food court. I personally haven’t tried it, but my brother (who makes the reverse commute everyday…ouch) highly recommends it.
QED, yay!
