Guelaguetza is a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles, California.[1] Established by Fernando Lopez (father of restaurateur and author Bricia Lopez) in 1994, the business has been recognized as one of "America's Classics" in 2015 by the James Beard Foundation.[2][3] The restaurant is the winner of the 2021 Gold Award.[4]
Guelaguetza is one of the few places in Los Angeles (or even the United States) in which patrons can intentionally ingest insects, namely chapulines (fried grasshoppers), an Oaxacan delicacy.[5][6][7]
