32 Best Latin American Restaurants in Philadelphia

“Tonight my wife and I had a reservation elsewhere and were left standing waiting for a table for over 40 minutes, we decided to leave and go across the street to Bolo where we had an amazing meal. They sat us right away and we already had drinks in our hand by the time the other restaurant tried texting us to say our table was ready. Cevice, some skewers, a salad, bacala fritters, the chicken chicherones, and the beef. Everything was amazing. We definitely over ordered but were happy with everything we got. Good sangria too. Another great meal at Bolo. Will be back soon. Chef is great and so friendly. Really saved our night.“

“Ne and my son love their Birrira tacos we tried the place in South Philly and didn't like them so we tried this place fell in love everything was good so we stayed with this place. So I got tacos for my Birthday yesterday and when we started to eat and dip in the consume it tasted funny it was oil it wasn't broth, I was gonna let it go but I was really disappointed I called and told them my issue and they were simply the best the offered to give me a new order but I was already home without a ride so I declined the offer, when I say they called me back 10min later and took my name for a future replacement I was shocked. I think it was really a professional and respectful way to make it right I love this place. If in the area try them out.“

“Excelente...“

“Everything was wonderful for my Birthday. Service was really on point.“

“Hidden gem! Don’t let their location intimidate you. I go here at least once a week! Their beef and cheese empanadas with a passion fruit drink! Spot on fire and fresh. They have a lot of different options on the empanadas. I’ve tried most of them and can’t complain. The staff super friendly and your order is out fast.“

“Great service and costumer service. Food—Consistent with flavor“

“Food is always good, reasonably priced. Portion size on point and place consistently clean. Only had 1 time where I was thrown back that for salmon, it increased that platter cost to $18. Other than that, I will continue to order from this place. Street parking could be a hit or miss.“

“Me justo aquí limpio y rico la comida“

“My family loved the food. We ordered four pupusas with beans and cheese, four more of those with cheese and loroco, guacamole, and maduros. The generous portions made it enough for two adults and two little kids, and we had leftovers too! My only complaint is that they only have their stuffed plantains available in the morning.“

“Absolutely love this place! We go whenever we can. Definitely recommend 👌❤️“

“Simply the best! I’ve had just about everything on the menu and it’s all delicious have never been disappointed! Sisi is a masterclass chef and the rest of the staff is top tier. You won’t be disappointed Bon appétit.“

“This place is now called El Sabor de Baro, and it's 100% better than the crap restaurants that used to be on the same premises. Please go and try the baro seasoning and I assure you that you will not regret it. Especially the stewed tail and the steak. Tastyoooooooo“
