Olga's Naturally: Tacos y Café | Our Story

A Tradition Reimagined for Today

Founded in Los Angeles in 2009, Olga's TACOS y CAFE was made to serve its community real and authentic Cal-Mex food. Leaving Mexico to the United States at a young age, Mr. Cruz spoke with his abuela over the phone in order to perfect his recipes. Our signature mole sauce was the result of years of experience to provide an authentic & delicious gluten free, non preservatives mole sauce. Originally founded for Mr. Cruz's wife, Olga, our mission was to provide healthy and nutritious Mexican food anyone can enjoy, regardless of dietary or medical restrictions.
A Mission Before the Movement

A Mission Before the Movement

Public perception of Mexican food has been cheap, greasy refried Tex-Mex food for years. Tired of this, Mr Cruz wanted to bring authentic and nutritious Mexican food made with only the finest ingredients.

Olga's Naturally opened its doors in the Baldwin Hills/Crenshaw corridor, bringing certified organic Mexican food to a Los Angeles neighborhood that deserved it. It wasn't a trend play — it was a community commitment.
