“If you’re in Philadelphia and looking for an authentic, flavorful, and heartfelt food experience, you have to visit La Chingonita in Fishtown. The food is absolutely delicious—a perfect fusion of Puerto Rican and Mexican flavors that creates a unique and unforgettable taste.

But what really makes this place stand out goes beyond the food. The owners treat their employees with so much respect and kindness, something that’s truly rare to see. You can feel the positive energy and the family-like atmosphere, and that reflects directly in the service.

The restaurant is also spotless in terms of cleanliness—everything is well taken care of from the kitchen to the dining area.

I highly recommend that everyone go check it out, enjoy this amazing “MexiRican” culinary experience, and support one of the best food ventures in the city. La Chingonita doesn’t just feed your stomach—it feeds your soul.“

“Fantastic meal! For drinks we had a bat bite & mai tai. Everything we tried for food was AMAZING. Service was friendly and great at giving us details about the menu. The neighborhood is not the best so I suggest to Uber here. The food and drinks outweigh the outside world so don’t be scared - get here and try this place!“

“El mejor en comida mexicana“

“This place was great! The food was delicious and the woman at the counter was super helpful and knowledgeable. It was our first time here and she offered us samples of the different meats so that we knew which ones we liked. I would highly recommend this place!“

“I’ve been visiting this restaurant for a little over a year now and it’s easily one of my favorite spots. I typically come during late lunch hours, grab a seat at the bar and enjoy some quiet time reading, scrolling, or chatting with the staff.

The service is always top-notch. Becky and Carlito are incredible , welcoming, attentive and just genuinely good energy to be around. They both also makes the best spicy strawberry margaritas, hands down !

Now the food? Always fresh, always hot and packed with flavor. I rotate between two favorites but let me just say the chicken verde enchiladas are next-level ! The chicken is tender, the verde sauce is flavorful with just the right amount of tang and spice and it’s plated with care. Every bite hits. It’s comforting, satisfying, and honestly one of the best versions I’ve had anywhere. When I’m not ordering that, I go for the steak fajitas which are equally amazing and full of flavor.

The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and never too crowded. It’s a great spot whether you’re coming solo, on a date or with family.

While I do wish they stayed open a bit later, I appreciate that keeping limited hours helps them maintain their high standard of service and food quality. That’s rare and worth protecting.

Highly recommend checking them out you’ll be back after the first visit!“

“Inventive, incredibly delicious cuisine. Can’t wait to go back and try more.“

“Consistently delicious Mexican dining in a welcoming, casual atmosphere indoors or on their patio!“

“Didn’t have to decide between church and brunch! I just tried La Catedral for the first time as I’ve been wanting to try this neighborhood spot for awhile. It seems like this place is slept on gem compared to other NoLibs brunch spots. We had the omelette plate and plaintain French toast and it was sooo flavorful and delicious. Will be coming here as my main brunch spot from now on.“

“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 !!“

“Amazing, delicious. creative food!❤️“

“We've going to Tamarindos for over 20 years. Fernando is an excellent owner. The new menu is awesome. Free Margheritas with entrees.“

“I recommend that you double check your on line order before leaving the store. I ordered 2 bowls and the bag they gave me was 1 bowl and one burrito. Fortunately I checked before driving home and having to return. It took about 15 minutes for them to correct the order.“

“Awesome food and Margaritas!”And the staff was awesome and gave me a free fried ice cream and sang me “Happy Birthday in Spanish!”“

“Pretty atmosphere and good food“

“This is the place to be on Main St. #bestvibeindayunk“

“Excelente la comida y la atención“

“Very tasty Mexican food. Look forward to returning.“

“Absolutely stellar place. It’s vibrant and colorful and the food is perfect. The plantains, chicken tinga tacos, and Cresta guacamole are three knockout dishes but most everything here is going to knock your brain to the back of your skull and have you speaking Spanish by the end of the meal.“

“Muy bonito ambiente agradable lo recomiendo 💯“

“Qdobas have very good food and i would recommend to everyone who enjoys good food and customer service“

“Went here with my husband and we are out of town and OMG the food was amazing!! wish I was closer I would be here every day!!“

“Sooooooooooooo yummmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyyy you get Birria from some places that is so flavorless and just looks yummy let me tell you this is not that at all… their Birria is so yummy and flavorful!! Looks and tastes good! Comes with cucumbers and limes and yummy salsas too! You can order online without an upcharge. Pickup was easy. Highly recommend :)“

“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.“

“This place has an awesome vibe! Absolutely love the decor and the energy. The food is delicious and super fresh! A feel good experience all the way around! Good times to be had here with lots of flare! Check it out they do not disappoint!“

“Excellence authentic Mexican food. Highly recommend Fridas“

“The customer service at this place was exceptional. The food was tasty, the environment was friendly and family oriented, and I really enjoyed the food. It was seasoned to maximum taste. I ate half of the menu, and when the bill came at the end, it was very affordable. I almost couldn’t believe it. I will highly recommend this place to anybody asking them selves. You will love it.“

“Always the best, and loving the new location! Busy afternoon at the bar for National Margarita Day! No problem, the manager jumps right in and makes sure all parties are taken care of! One of our favorite spots!! 🥰🍋‍🟩“

“Awesome food and great friendly service!“

“Food was absolutely delicious. Great place, friendly staff, and awesome food😁“

“As a California native I’ve been super picky about Mexican food since I moved here. Taqueria El Habanero ABSOLUTELY hits every expectation ! The food is incredible, super authentic and the customer service is immaculate. We eat there a few times a month and the staff is so caring and already recognizes our order. They truly go above and beyond to know their customers and serve the local community.“

“Seriously incredible. The chicken tortilla soup is my favorite soup east of the Mississippi. Perfect amount of spice, chicken, crispy torts, and avacado. Have tried majority of different entrees all very good, staff is so welcoming. Never change the soup“

“i love you El limon Ambler“

“la atención de sus meseras es de calidad“

“clean and good atmosphere“

“Tried here for the first time tonight and it was delicious! We will definitely be ordering from here again!“

“After passing this place a million times, we got takeout a week ago. The jumbo burritos were amazing!! The chips & queso were also out of this world. Friday pizza night is now burrito night. We’ve gotten it 2 weeks in a row & it was great both times.“

“I’ve had food from here several times now and it never fails to please. The empanadas are to die for. A little hole in the wall place, easy to overlook but well worth stopping for. They now are beginning to offer breakfast. Can’t wait to try their huevos rancheros.“

“Great lunch spot after Franklin Institute“

“I have eaten at this location a few times. Great employees (thanks Stephanie), food and service. Recommend the fish tacos.“
