Everything here was 5 stars across the board — the food, the service, the atmosphere.As for the food, we ordered the birria tacos & ramen, along with a few of the HH street tacos. The flavor was amazing, I haven’t had birria so rich across the East Coast! The horchata was also amazing. The vibes were great inside, and Juana was so kind. It was a wonderful experience and can’t wait to go back!

I first discovered Juana Tamale when I 1st moved to Philly in 2018 and on the hunt for Christmas tamales.Let's move to this fabulous location. I have had something from every category. And would recommend it all. But that's not why I'm writing this review. I was stuck at work trying to meet a deadline. It was snowing, Freezing. It's 830p and been here since 7am with 5 hours more to make deadline. My fabulous son called to make sure they could still deliver. He ordered me the Soup & Sandwich Special- a rich spicy tomato soup jazzed up with garlic & chipolte and a grilled cheese mulita. Just in case he also ordered the Sopa de Pollo, a rich broth with carrots, onions and chicken in every bite.It warmed my body and soul. Revived I finished just before deadline.Let me tell you tomato soup is a great breakfast food. They go really well with street tacos. Washed down with a Ting. (I'm very cross cultural)If you are looking for authentic Mex, run to Juana Tamale. You'll thank me later.

This is hands down the best, fastest Mexican food around for takeout. The vegan and vegetarian options give new perspective on how flavorful and creative such options can be. Get the vegan birra, Mexican pizza, burrito, or anything on the menu really.Vegetarian options: So many amazing thoughtful vegetarian options

Wow! Thats the first word that comes to mind after my first trip to Juana Tamale. I ordered the beef birria with consommé and they were outstanding. I will definitely be going back to try something different. Can’t wait?
