“My family enjoyed the food we ordered last night. It was our first time ordering from this restaurant. We enjoyed everything and the guacamole was super !!“

“First time customer. Found them here on Google because of 4.5 reviews and close to home. Online menu is not correct with offerings and prices. We ordered on the phone and the worker was very pleasant and helpful. We ordered empanadas, a drizzle burrito and a mix burrito. For dessert we ordered chimichanga cheesecake. On arrival the worker was very pleasant. There is a 3% charge to use your card or tap. Food was average. Presentation was good and food looks very appealing. The drizzle burrito was good. Jalapenos made it spicy but it had too much rice in it as filler as opposed to more carne asada. The mix burrito didn't have any wraps or even shells and I didn't think I would have to ask for them and I didn't. The meat was very thinly sliced and grilled. It was good but underwhelming. Our empanadas..I ordered a 5 pack upgraded to 2 chicken/1 carne asada/1 pork/1 ground beef. We received 2 chicken and 3 ground beef. They were pretty. The wrap was nice. They were very greasy. The chimichanga cheesecake was good it was a slice of cheesecake wrapped in a flour tortilla then coated in cinnamon sugar. Overall it was good but could be better. They do have more items on the menu that's not online like birria.“

“@halal_mexican is a hidden gem in Philadelphia that has some of the best HALAL Mexican cuisine that I’ve ever tasted. I love that I was able to find a Mexican halal spot. Pictured: -Flautas -Shrimp Chimichanga -Mini Corn on the Cob -Chicken Tacos -Steak Burrito Bowl My favorite item from there has to be the flautas. It’s a deep fried rolled chicken tacos served with pico de gallo and sour cream. Highly recommend this restaurant to all those seeking a tasty mexican restaurant with good service and halal food! Thank you @halal_mexican for being so hospitable and accommodating. I’ll be coming back here next visit“

“Damn. I’m always looking for good Mexican food and it’s elusive to say the least. So finding it in the food court at a mall was a surprise. Tasty food friendly staff and honestly priced cheaper than it should be. Wow. I’ll for sure be back often.“

“We just had dinner at El Nopalito last night and it was great! The food was delicious, the staff is very friendly and the restaurant is so cozy and pretty inside. We got in right before it got very busy, but even with the rush, our food came out quickly and was very good. Highly recommend!“

“Best Mexican food in town!“

“The food here is always flavorful, fresh, and plentiful. I especially (as someone with a dairy allergy) greatly appreciate the dedicated allergen steps I've seen them take to prepare and label my food. A strong recommendation for the brussels sprouts!“

“The food was delicious and clean service“

“Yummy………………………………………………..“

“Recomiendo los platillos de carne los especiales todo lo q emos comido es Rikisimo emos hido dos domingos y toda la comida esta muy buena fresca del dia limpio y aparte las meseras muy amables gracias esta increible ese lugar gracias♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“The tacos are delicious, authentic, and fresh! The beef Birria tacos and the tacos Al Pastor are delicious! Me and my boyfriend ate them SO FAST! We will be back again!“

“great food and great staff!!“

“Juanita's has the best Mexican food in the area. All of their tacos and tostadas are excellent. the shrimp dishes are all great also, especially the camarones con crema. You can't go wrong here.“

“At LaNova the family cooks from the heart. Everything is made fresh from scratch. We've been Mexican food aficionados for years and LaNova is our all time favorite in SNJ. We dine at LaNova at least 2-3x/month.😊“

“Food is delicious but please inform staff when you are sending out coupons. Two weeks ago I tried ordering & asked about the coupon (15% off) I received via email & staff knew nothing. The person who answered the phone took my phone number, said they would try to find out & call me back. After 15 minutes I called & placed my order hoping by the time I picked up said order that I would have received a call back. Staff still didn’t know anything when I picked up my order.“

“Very fresh. Very clean. Their verde and pico is amazing!“

“I just happened to google taco spots near me. This place is .3 miles away. I walked in really nervous, not knowing how to order or what to order. I ordered the basics. 2 chicken tacos and 1 beef taco. It was quick and they were so GOOD! I went for myself, but ended up sharing with my husband because I was so full! I’ll definitely go back! Probably tomorrow!“

“This restaurant is amazing! Impeccable service and professional. Anything on the menu is worth trying! This is my go to spot for celebration cakes and they are always beautiful and delicious!“

“delicious food tonight. thank you“

“My daughter wanted some birria tacos so we tried here for first time and would not be our last. I ordered Al pastor burrito and couple churros (warm with caramel center). It was delicious. The green and red hot sauce they gave me was so fresh and spicy. A lot of love was put in to this food. Also had a grocery store up front as well. We'll be back! 😊“

“This establishment has quickly become one of our favorite “go-to” spots! We’re working our way through the menu one visit at a time and after several meals we haven’t found anything yet that hasn’t been spectacularly fresh and incredibly delicious! Last night we shared 2 appetizers and a chicken stew with homemade tortillas and came home with leftovers!“

“This is our second time having the seafood soup, and it’s just as amazing as the first. The broth is rich and full of flavor, with fresh shrimp, squid, and crab cooked perfectly. It’s the kind of dish you can’t stop talking about—my husband even called it “Michelin-worthy.” I really hope they never change the recipe (or the price) because it’s honestly perfect.“

“This is the first time eating here. My husband got a quesadilla and two burrito bowls. I was so impressed. Much better than chipotle or similar places. Our son is a very picky eater and loved the chicken quesadilla. Anytime a mama can feed her kids and they love it is a big win! Definitely will be returning.“

“try the cuban with a twist!! My favorite lunch spot, the food is made with ❤️“

“Muy rica la comida y gracias a Paula por el servicio que nos brindó con ese entusiasmo en tu trabajo en esta tarde que Dios continué bendiciendo a todos los que trabajan en el interior buen servicio ante mano muchas gracias“

“Ate here for the second time and it didn’t disappoint Food is great and fair priced.“

“everything is so good! home made. authentic. real deal fresh and delicious“

“I placed an order through grubhub and am very pleased! This was my first time having food from Canela Mexican Cafe & it definitely wont be the last! I ordered Enchiladas De Mole Poblano which was plenty by itself but also ordered Mexican Empanadas Tinga chicken. For those with a sensitive pallette to spice, at least what I ordered, may hit your tongue a bit much, but oh boy it all had such a clean, fresh taste.“

“Corn came HOT. Fresh.

Pretty tasty as a snack. Unsure about the value, certainly a lot of avocado in there, but I'd be tempted to spend a little more for a burrito or nachos at something like Amigos. Probably would get the guac corn cup without hot sauce next time.“

“Amazing food! Waitress was friendly and had a bussin playlist!!“

“Banging son. Enjoy the food son.“

“Super delish, authentic Mexican food... absolutely recommend 👌 very small place, mostly tale out.. there are seats but not many... LOVED everything we ordered.. the tres leches was to die for!!!!
Can't wait to bring my Sister“

“Delicious, fresh and homemade food with friendly service !“

“Yesterday was my first time here, I celebrated my 56th Birthday with my daughter, sister & nieces. The dinner was amazing. We started with appetizers, guacamole and chips and steak nachos. I had the chicken fajitas, they came to the table still sizzling and were seasoned to perfection! We brought in a cake and they had a special candle and sang. This was an added surprise! Thank you for a great night out.“

“This is one of a couple of Mexican Restaurants in NE Philadelphia that serve homemade, made to order dishes. Festive decor, friendly staff and fair prices. It's always busy. Free parking in the strip mall across from Neshaminy Mall on the Boscovs side.“

“I absolutely love their food! You honestly get the best of both worlds from pizza to Mexican dishes and freshly made salsa verde. I’ve never had any issues with their quality of food and the people here are very nice. Love the family owned atmosphere.“

“I would Like to Recommend Luna Y Sol. Friendly staff ,great food ,good prices ,nice cozy atmosphere, delicious Horchata‘s😋. I will definitely be going back!“

“I purchased the Pineapple Express. It had a good blend of spiciness and sweetness. The burrito was full of food and the price was fair. My only problem was with the rice, some of it was not cooked fully through but still an overall good burrito.“

“I got the traditional cubano sandwich today and it was absolutely amazing. The bread it was on was wonderful and the meat was so tender! I highly recommend it!“

“Very impressed with the quality of food, I mean it's real good. For me, it's a step up from Chipotle that I won't go near personally. I gave service 4 stars because the woman that is usually at the register is less than friendly.“

“I have been coming since they opened in Marlton. The food always looks appealing and tastes good as well. Service is fine as the servers do check in on you to see if you need anything. The atmosphere is OK but the music that is a level that is uncomfortable. You have to raise your voice in order to have a conversation especially if you want to talk with someone at the end of the table. It has made me rethink if I even want to have a meal there, seriously. It is used to be at a lower level. To go would be an option.“

“Food was absolutely delicious. We had the Birria, a taco bowl, and nachos al pastor and it was all so flavorful. You need to eat here.“
