South Philly Barbacoa - Philadelphia

That was absolutely loved here! they are so meritful of all their recognition, all without compromising on tradition or trying to be American. they order at the theke and sit themselves, inside or outside. you're getting off the counter and chow. the line can seem long, but moving fast. also only cash. my man and I had a little of everything that barbacoa tacos, spicy tacos, veggie taco, consomme and horchata. everything was wonderful! the barbacoa can be almost overwhelmingly rich, so make sure to add a lot of salsa to cut the enough. the street parking in the surroundings were easy to reach on a Sunday morning.

The barbacoa was delicious. we are there at 12:15 a.m. on a Sunday, waiting for about 40 minutes. it was worth waiting. there was a little car out there. we used this as a table. You know what you want before you get in.

It is absolutely amazing. the vibes is stunning. pampering wine and delicious food. the barbacoa and suppe is delicious. it was a beautiful experience.

Absolutely delicious! True authentic Mexican cuisine! I saw a food show years ago and saw that Philadelphia had a local legend. I have been dying to eat here ever since. The story of the restaurants owner is amazing but thats for different time, or just find her episode on Netflix. The restaurant is on the corner in South Philly so parking is tough if you think you will be just parking out front. There was a line at the door at 10:30 AM. YES THAT'S RIGHT A LINE AT THE DOOR AT 10:30AM! The restaurant opens at 5:30 AM Saturdays and Sundays during COVID. They close at 3:00 PM or until they sell out of food. Hence the line at 10:30 AM. So do yourself a favor and get there early. The menu is very simple with just a handful of items. Tacos are there main item. The do offer a Veggie taco . The tortillas are handmade organic, non-gmo corn that is grown in Lancaster, PA. Trust me you can tell the difference. Side note, they have 3-4 people just making tortillas. The meat is cut fresh right in front of you. They give you an abundance of sides for the tacos . The staff are wonderful. You will not be disappointed.

Fast service. We drove 3 hours just to eat here. Arrive at 11am and got a table. Friendly and efficient staff. The owner was there working hard. We got to talk to her. She’s an inspiration to many immigrants. I recommend this restaurant 100 percent.
