Sierra Mexican Cuisine 3008 Tweedy Boulevard, South Gate, CA 90280
About the Business
Sierra Mexican Cuisine is a cafe located at 3008 Tweedy Boulevard in South Gate, California. Inspired by the flavors of the Sierra Norte de Puebla, Mexico, this institution offers a taste of the rich culture and gastronomy of the region.
The story of Sierra Mexican Cuisine began with Lucy's mom, who learned to cook from her own mother in Los Angeles in the late 1980s. Starting as a small home-based operation, Lucy's mom's passion for cooking and sharing meals with loved ones grew over the years. In 2021, the family started selling food from their front yard, eventually leading to the opening of their food truck, Sierra Mexican Cuisine, in 2022.
With a vision to provide a taste of home for the large immigrant community in Los Angeles, Lucy left her teaching career to focus on the food truck full time. The recipes passed down through generations are now shared with customers, creating a sense of connection and community through food.
In addition to the cafe, Sierra Mexican Cuisine also operates a tacos de guisado stand on 127th street and Central Ave in South Los Angeles, offering authentic Poblano cuisine in taco form. Visit Sierra Mexican Cuisine for a delicious taste of home and a warm sense of community.

"I took my family there for Sunday breakfast. I had the chicken & pork tamale. They were both so good! My parents enjoyed the avocado toast and sandwich. Highly recommend checking it out."
"Omg i hate mole but for Xmas, they’re serving mole pork tamales and yall, these tamales are delicious! The place is quaint and the cafe de olla was amazing. I’ll definitely come back at least once a month."
"Came by on 12/3 Sunday to try the tacos de guisados. My parents loved them! The champurrado was PERFECT! the picture doesn't do it justice. & the tamales were the perfect spice/sauce. Will be coming back on the weekend for more tamale❤️"
"I went to Sierras a few weeks ago. I got the green tamale with a mocha drink. It was so good! Great tasting tamale with tons of flavor and the mocha drink as well. Definitely recommend trying this spot out. Great food and atmosphere. After eating, I did some school work and enjoyed their complimentary wifi."
