SatishOctober 27, 2014The south philly special just transported me places with the unexpected kick from the peppers and the flavors from the meat. This should be on the main menu I say.
Katrina Arey (Croswell)June 25, 2015Amazing!! Gets pretty crowded, cash only, but worth the wait! Some of the best Al pastor tacos in the city, and the specials are fun too!
Abigail RobertsonAugust 9, 2015Tacos are amazing!! However I got the taco salad once and it was waay too spicy for me to eat (dressing had jalapeños in it or something) so FYI don't get that if you can't eat really spicy stuff :)
Jessica NambudiriJune 23, 2013The impala are delish and one of the cheapest mixed drinks. Burritos are filling and the recommended taco amount is around 4, plus or minis one depending on how hungry you are.
Shrimp tacos are amazing! Tried the tostadas for the first time and they were wonderful as well. Made a great appetizer to share with the table.- All the tacos! And all the tequila! (You get a sangrita with your shot. Sip it.)
EnriqueJuly 26, 2012Gourmet tacos, green rice and spicy beans are delicious, margaritas & micheladas amazing...and hot waitresses (a bonus)...just what every restaurant should be like...
Hip hop playing, down to earth employees and customers, good food, good beer, good prices. What more could you ask for?
Try the Al Pastor (Spanish for Shepherd Style): slow roasted pork topped with onion, pineapple, and cilantro over a corn tortilla for an authentic "street" style taco.
The food is all good, nothing stands out because you can't go wrong. Great drinks too and a hip atmosphere.- Extensive tequila selection, served with sangrita. Watch their Twitter for $1 taco announcements the day of.
C EdwardsAugust 3, 2013Make sure that that you call ahead to make sure they're open or check the website for hours. I went there on a Thursday afternoon and they were closed. I still haven't had a chance to go back.

Best nachos anywhere. If you're feeling bold, ask for them K&A style and they'll come over waffle fries instead of chips
Mia S.August 31, 2012Follow them on Facebook for $1 taco night. great margaritas and the best nachos. Makes me venture to Fishtown.
amazing little tacos and awesome burritos. follow them on twitter to find out when their $1 taco days are!
Tristan RhodesideFebruary 13, 2017Great Mexican with a Philly flair. Awesome brunch with its own happy hour from 1-3.
Demetrius BagleyAugust 4, 2015The Food Duo shares this is Philly's take on LA street food with vegan options- Louisa EngleOctober 7, 2011Yum! Try the mushroom or shrimp tacos and the nachos! Little tacos for cheap! Also homemade salsas and Cholula!
The volcano burrito was so spicy (especially at the bottom) that i couldn't feel my face for an hour. SO GOOD
Jordan CoeymanJune 6, 2013On dollar taco night (which you need to follow them on Twitter to hear about) arrive early. This place gets packed!
Mushroom taco, seitan, and soy chorizo were fantastic the pico de gallo is the best I've had in the city.
Great Fishtown bar/restaurant. Vegan options! I'll be back!
Come for happy hour and dollar taco night. HH = $4 nachos and house margaritas.
First impression: wow. I could not be more happy with this place. Mini soy chorizo tacos and tecate. I think this is heaven.
Allyson SimonMay 30, 2013Delish Mexican for the east coast! $4 House Rita's $3 drafts. Cute neighborhood.
Sarah LewandowskiFebruary 4, 2012I highly recommend a carne asado burrito to the face immediately! Perf at any time of the day!!!
RCJune 18, 2015Very hit or miss on food. Service is also hit or miss. Head south of the city, not north, for good Mexican food.
Ben GDecember 1, 2011They should offer dessert. Great food otherwise. Al Pastor burrito was awesome.
They switch the dollar taco night each week, but it seems to have garnered a big following as it's been jampacked each time I've gone.
Steve HachJanuary 8, 2012Great happy hour. Try the street dig, awesome take out 4 the late night stagger home
Justin ReinsbergNovember 27, 2012$1 taco night once a week. The day changes each week so check online

CristinaSeptember 14, 2012If you didn't get the cochinita, then you didn't really eat here. Coupe de ville to wash it all down, ftw.
