La Canasta Mexican Food in South Philly is a hidden gem offering authentic and well-prepared dishes using fresh ingredients. The service is professional and friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy, with a few people dining in. The menu highlights include the best nachos, street corn, gorditas, and wings, along with standout dishes like the quesabirria with pork—crispy tortillas stuffed with tender, flavorful pork and melty cheese, served with a rich consommé. The fresh guacamole and warm, homemade chips are the perfect start to the meal, and the chiles relleno is the best many have had at restaurants. The rice and beans are perfectly cooked, and the salsa is perfection. Prices are incredibly reasonable, making it a great spot for a tasty, affordable meal. It's a fantastic neighborhood BYOB spot, with some wheelchair accessibility through an alternate entrance.
