We stopped in today after seeing they had a full service brunch. The menu options were on theme, with a very nice breakfast twist to some I hadn’t seen before. Everything was filling with great portion sizes, and the staff were kind and attentive. The only complaint is that it was cold outside, and they still had the AC going, so it was a little too cold inside too.

Casual atmosphere with a few tables and a bathroom, which is a big plus. I ordered the Chicken Tinga Burrito Bowl. It was neither a small nor large serving size. The ingredients all tasted good including the guacamole, which was extra. $15+ total. 4 stars — I wouldn’t hesitate to go back, solid experience, but no rush either.

Solid taco spot. We ordered a variety, ground beef, Korean beef and salmon. All delicious. You have to order in sets of two or three. I ordered a side of guac and it didn’t come with chips, chips are extra . The guac was very good so this review is ending on a positive. Give this place a go.

The duck taco is delicious! But….
Feeling pretty underwhelmed. I expected my duck taco to have a little bit more in it especially since it’s double the price of the salmon taco and only a third of the size. That being said— the flavor was delicious! The The salmon taco looked colorful and fresh but it was almost tasteless and really greasy 🙁 overall for about $20 for 3 tacos I was pretty disappointed

Revolution Taco, located at 2015 Walnut Street in Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square, offers a creative fusion of global flavors through its tacos, burritos, and bowls. A standout item is their Chicken Tinga Bowl, featuring tender chicken tinga atop a base of rice and black beans, complemented by pico de gallo, a blend of cheeses, lime crema, and salsa roja. The restaurant is known for its fresh, made-to-order meals and a variety of house-made hot sauces, providing a flavorful dining experience. We have been there multiple times and have consistently enjoyed delicious/tasty meals.

The food was really good. I got the Korean BBQ which was amazing. Would definitely go back for that. I also ordered the Buffalo chicken empanada, which I head was great but it only half decent to me personally. I also got the strawberry soda which was just okay.

Cute little taco spot in the Rittenhouse Square area. I had the duck taco which was really flavorful and 2 bbq spiced cauliflower tacos which could have used a little more flavor but tasted better with hot sauce which you have about 4 options when you get your order. The bbq shrimp empanada I got sounded crazy but tasted really good and unique. A cool spot to sit for casual lunch or a quick bite or even to go.

I love the variation of flavors the taco menu was! We ordered the Korean BBQ, Grilled Salmon, Beef, and Chorizo tacos and each was flavorful. The Viet coffee was also a cool drink during the hot summer day. I’d come back to try again one day when I have the chance. The area is also roomy and comfortable to sit for a quick break.

Some of the best tacos in the city. I love this spot and I’m flabbergasted that it isn’t more popular. This was probably my 10th visit since discovering this place a year or so ago. I’ve always been overwhelmed with joy with how delicious these tacos are.

First Visit — I ordered the verde beef tacos in house. They looked great, the taste was solid, the restaurant was clean and the chairs were super comfortable.

Second Visit — I ordered the korean bbq beef tacos to go through the app and pictured below. They did not look great, seemed lightly filled, and the taste was disappointing and heavily soy.

Service could be more dynamic and attentive. From glancing at the reviews, management seems very receptive to feedback which is a good sign. If I return, I hope to have an experience like my first.
