Chelsea is the best waitress. My family and I took a very long time to eat and drink and she was always attentive and friendly and never overbearing. The food was great and if you come here ask for Chelsea!
Food is somewhat above average, reasonably priced, but service can be slow if it's busy. I'll give it a solid Spanish class "asi-asi."
Go there and get a pitchers of maths with friends and enjoy your night
Everything that went into my mouth was delicious. Couldn't fault it. Ceviche a particular highlight... and the short ribs.
my favorite place to eat/drink in philly!! the outdoor patio addition last year took it to a whole new level. right off the broad street line so its the perfect place to pre game for philly sports events!!!
Great service, great food, great space to outdoor dine. Beautiful experience.
BEST HAPPY HOUR IN SOUTH PHILLY. $15 Margarita pitcher that are full of tequila!! Edwin is a great, personable bartender that never let's your glass go empty.
If you go to Philly and don't make this a stop you'll regret it for the rest of your life!! Goat Burrito...amazing!! Shrimp Burrito... ridiculous!!
The food is always fresh and uniquely amazing every time. Also, do yourself a favor and try their margaritas.... All of them!
if you're looking for good Mexican food GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. 1 example of their food is that the enchiladas are made with tomato sauce. also the service was very slow.
Excellent service. The hostess in particular is consistently really great. This is probably the most popular restaurant in East Passyunk. They have a great outdoor space when it is nice out. They usually have good beer. The drinks are good but definitely not the best. The food is pretty good, but you might think its a little expensive for what it is. I recommend the mushroom quesadillas, the wings, chicken tacos, and enchiladas.
Shrimp Fajitas were quite tasty. Service was fine. Nice atmosphere, simple and casual.
Best American/Mexican food ever!! The margaritas are amazing here. The burritos are so big!
Kind of a weird review here...went to lunch and we had 3 things: Shrimp Ceviche (a special), Chicken Quesadilla, and Fajitas. Hands down the worst "ceviche"I've ever had - all salt, ZERO lime (and I've traveled all over Central America and the Caribbean and had it many different ways). Can't call it ceviche if there is no citrus in it! The chicken for the quesadilla was stewed and smelled amazing, but almost too salty to eat...but on the other hand the Fajitas were insane and the El Dorado Margarita was amazing. Would definitely go back to give it a second chance because the vibe (and the staff) is great.
Decent place to sit outside & get drinks at, not the biggest fan of the food.
The mango margaritas are very good. I also like the setan and tofu fajitas.
outdoor seating. dog friendly outside. good burittos
Delicious food! Having come from Texas, I can say that this is pretty true to the TexMex style and flavor. It is a little pricey though and the plates are on the smaller side. Great happy hour options. Parking in this area is horrendous.
One of my GF's favorite hangouts; steak nachos and a pitcher of frozen margaritas have started (or ended) many of our adventures!
Love this place, margs are great and $6. For food, I've gotten the Carnitas burrito and it puts Chipotle to shame, delicious. In the summer time, they open up a really nice outdoor section as well.
Always great food, nice spot during Covid with outdoor eating
Food was okay and the drinks where okay. Nothing special in my opinion. The ethic Mexican food further down the street near little Italy taste much better.
Overall nice cozy place for drinks and socializing.
Great little restaurant with a relaxing atmosphere, great margarita pitchers during happy hour for an even better price and with other specials. The food is also very tasty
Decided to eat out and try a new place. . Spent the next 3 days with diarrhea and throwing up... food was ok going down, horrible coming back up... seriously chipotle is better...
It is good and has good attention but they do not know how to make the tacos like the Mexicans
Great happy hour. Friendly staff, a bit noisy but it was super busy. Lovely outdoor dining but on this particular day, too hot!
Great menu of tasty and attractive dishes. Sat outside seating area, great evening spot.
Nice environment. Food has been consistently good for years.
Solid Mexican fare that's a bit more upscale than the typical hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurants
Not horrible... Not great. Service was non-engaging and reactive (as opposed to proactive) when available. There were up charges for literally everything, but the food was good and timely. Nothing to write home about.
Had a good lunch experience here. My goat dish was delicious, drinks were good. We were seated outside on their nice patio area, but the seating itself was very crowded together, which was uncomfortable when anyone had to get up. Overall, good experience and I would go back.
The hosts was rude and had an attitude,no thank you . Should have read the reviews on this place before going there !
Edwin is the standard that should be set for all bartenders in Philadelphia.
Thee End.

Good brunch spot, especially in warmer weather with the outdoor seating
Order the endless Summer margarita and the Mexican hotdogs. I promise you won't be disappointed. Great outdoor seating and a wonderful atmosphere
My party was so impressed by our server Tim. Dude was just so genuinely fun and attentive without being overly so- thanks!
I ordered a vegan beef burrito and they gave me something that tasted like vegan chorizo. I did not like the vegan beef-chorizo or the wet burrito at all. My partner did not like his either. The loaded nachos were meh. Overall very expensive for -in my opinion- untasty food. Also, the nachos and burritos did not have frijoles refritos, which is a bummer. The place is nice and cozy.
Quality food, good service, good vibes. A bit loud and dark for my taste (I must be getting old), but a good time. If esquites is on the specials menu (Mexican corn off the cob, cheesy, buttery goodness) order it.
Fun, good drinks, good food, nice staff, lots eye candy
Great food excellent service and affordable prices.
Always awesome. Love the margarita selection. The servers are all very friendly. My friends had chicken tacos-solid, I had the goat entree- really delicious.
Really want to love this place, but the people working here have an absolutely horrible attitude. I ve tried to give it a second chance, living a few blocks away, but the employees never fail to disappoint.
Some.of the best tacos and margaritas on the city! Always packed but worth the wait
excellent service, decent tacos al pastor,carnitas and platano Macho .
they also have open bar if you want have a alcohol drink, the only downside is the AC
(bit cold for me.)
Good atmosphere & serviceservice. Food wasn't anything break through but tasty, well priced, well cooked. $6 house marg
I loved the seitan wings! It was crowded when I visited. Overall a good experience.
We went for drinks and appetizers. From the menu, it looked like a good place for breakfast too!
Good food and beverages.
Music too loud for conversation.
My favorite philly margarita pitcher (frozen classic), hands down. Food is delicious too.
The food was good and my friend and I liked it. There is an outdoor seating area but we were turned away due to potential rain. I don't know why but it was really loud in there only with the volume of people talking. The music wasn't playing that loudly but for some reason it was hard to talk to/hear my friend. The waiter was really good and attentive for it being busy coming by to check on how our meals were going.
Good margaritas. High turnover of staff. Trendy young crowds. Family affordable restaurant.
delicious food with great vegan options! our server had a great personality (I think her name was elaina too). we got some delicious passion fruit margaritas too. we will definitely be back.
I ate here 11/23/18. It was not the Cantina's I remembered from back in the day. We didn't get chips & salsa, and my burrito was served quite cool.
Great Mexican food choice and awesome frozen Margaritas! Eat outdoors!!
