They have everything on their menu. The quality of the food was okay, particularly in its freshness. The rice was very tasty and fresh, and actually that was my first time trying enchiladas with this sauce.
The atmosphere was amazing, it’s its own Mexican world in the heart of south Philly on a random corner. I loved it. If they have events, I’d like to visit again.

It’s a small corner cafe style restaurant
and the food was amazing and the drinks were great too. Came here with some friends and it was good service with complimentary sides

What a great place! Breakfast menu ends at 1pm, but that’s ok, they have quite an impressive menu, and they give you such colossal amounts of food! Look how big this chorizo burrito is! Churros are awesome! Coffee, soda, tacos, this place offers so much. Friendly people, fast service, good food, recommended. Do yourself a favor, cancel your lunch plans and come to La Cocina on the corner of Broad and Dickinson instead.

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Philly! The people who work there are always so pleasant and friendly. The food is so flavorful and consistent. Always excited to go there. Perfect for a casual lunch or dinner.

Okay so I’m not going to lie, I was a little impatient about waiting for this sandwich. I just popped in this cute, unassuming corner joint to get my husband something quick for lunch. Or so I thought. It felt like I was sitting there, the only customer, on a wobbly stool, waiting for this takeout for an eternity. I’ve had a fair number of tortas in my time, and it seems like they always take like 5 or less mins to slap together before I’m on my way. This torta took a full TWENTY minutes to make. However, after walking home (somewhat grumpy) and trying a bite of this thing I immediately determined that I am not at all mad about waiting for this. It was fully 100% well worth it, and I will be back — I’ll just call ahead next time.
5 stars. Compliments to the chef!

Wow…great food. Food and presentation well thought out. Carne Asada, served with fresh made chips, pico de gallo and guacamole, as well as what seemed to be a freshly made red salsa and salsa verde. Extra steamed corn tortillas….earned bonus points! Very tasty. You should eat here. Glad I did. Will be back next time I’m in town.

This is kinda silly but I ordered 1 and 1/2 portion of nachos.
Yeah it’s pretty silly… who the heck ordered 1/2 portion of nachos??
Me!!
A friend came by and she want to get nachos. I don’t want to feel left off and at the same time I don’t want to blow up my calories on nachos so I ordered 1 for my friend and 1/2 for me.
I was a little skeptical when I call them over the phone but surprised they do it!!!

Great food after a long day at work. I love the quesadilla, portion size is great and comes with salad + chips. Nice corner restaurant.

If you’re Muslim— DO NOT EAT HERE. I ordered take out and asked for shrimp dumplings and explicitly stated shrimp twice, and they gave me pork which I don’t eat for religious reasons. I called back to say so and when they offered a refund I just asked if they could make the shrimp dumplings. When I went to pick it up, the lady at the register and the cook both actually started yelling at me for not bringing back the pork dumplings which they never asked me to do and accused me of lying to get more food and that I ate the pork dumplings. The whole time I’m literally wearing a shirt that says “pigs are haram” in big bold text too!! I literally couldn’t believe that not only were they unapologetic about giving me pork (a type of meat that literally billions of people do not eat) but that they got mad at me for their own mistake. I literally never write reviews but this was so absolutely horrible, unprofessional, and culturally insensitive- will never go here again.

Awful service , the waiter was gone for almost the whole time we were there. The Cara de papa cook is super rude , they brought out the first plate of food and was cold .. then brought the second plate 20 minutes later. I would never eat there again
