Restaurantji's Souderton guide: Where to find the ultimate Mexican flavors.
“Food was super good. I got the quesabirria tacos and the meat was very juicy and flavorful! My friend got the Torta al Pastor-- he's a hispanic very familiar (and picky) with his authentic food-- and he was impressed.The price for the food was fair considering the portions. The woman who served us was very kind. The restaurant was quiet and clean too. Will return :)“
“I was here 2/26/24 during the lunch rush and the whole crew was fantastic! Although I had to wait 15 mins for them to prepare the steak because they ran out, I survived. My only complaint would be they trim some of the fat off the steak, but today was the 1st time a crew here has executed everything well. Chipotle has fallen off quite a bit, but if management is reading, whatever crew you guys had for the lunch rush today needs to be on more often.“
“My husband and I came here for date night and had a great time! The guacamole is so fresh and delicious. The drinks are also really good, make sure to try the Valentina drink! Our server was so attentive and I believe two of the managers or maybe even the owners came by our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Truly stellar service, will definitely be back!“
“al pastor and birria tacos were so good! stopped by for taco tuesday with my friend and we were so impressed. the service was fast, the pastor was tender and flavorful, the birria was perfectly rich, and the tacos came with delicious roasted peppers and tortilla chips. honestly we were amazed that you can still get so much good food at such a good price around here. definitely stop by if you're around the collegeville area!!Kid-friendliness: there are some not kid-friendly items from the convenience store on display right near the ordering counter, so i would probably not take kids inside. food is great though!“
“I've ordered twice for delivery and it's been so fast and so good! Try them, you'll be so happy you did.Dietary restrictions: Super easy to order exactly the way you can eat it. The menu specifies corn or flour tortillas, making it easy to stay gluten free. They follow directions so well, I was able to order a burrito as a bowl, too.“
“This place is amazinggg! I’m sitting in the restaurant writing this review before I leave because it was that good!I chose this place because I wanted Mexican and I didn’t know the Mexican places around this area, it had the best reviews so I figured we’d try it. BEST DECISION EVER!!! My son got a cheese quesadilla he loved (I tried it too and was impressed!). I got chicken fajitas - absolutely fantastic. Then my dad got a taco salad and he reported it being delicious. Nice ambiance - very colorful, cozy place.The only side note Id write in is it’s not Spicy. Which is great for my son, I do prefer a little “kick” in my fajitas but it was still very flavorful without it. My dad ordered a side of hot sauce and he said that was very Spicy. So they’ve got the spicy if you want it.I keep a list on restaurants I like best on my phone and I am most definitely writing this one down. I live in Lansdale but I’d travel to Colmar just to eat here. I highly recommend if you’re looking for some good Mexican.“
“Just moved to the area from South Philly where there is no shortage of top tier Mexican joints and have been looking for something to scratch that itch in this area. I just found it, quick service, reasonable prices and GREAT food. Everything was seasoned perfectly down to the side of rice and the side hot sauces were spectacular. Would highly recommend if you live in the area!“
“Amazing. Been here a few times, servers are great, the cooks are playing music and having a great time while serving up some of the best food in the area, and priced very well.The aqua de frescha is amazing. Highly recommend. Almost a perfect substitute for water.“
“Owner and staff are amazing people. When I walk in with my daughter to grab takeout they always offer some sort of treat for her. She can be picky, but they are determined to give her something she'll like!The food is incredible as well. I get the chicken burrito ahogado almost everytime! Definitely worth a shot if your considering something new to try. Prices are great as well.“
“Update 04-Apr-24: Katrina was our server, plus we got to see Melissa again. Was really great food and the drinks were great too. Easy to get to and great Mexican ambiance! Katrina and Melissa - you guys are the BEST!We go here often. Excellent place to eat and enjoy an adult beverage! Nicole was great the last few visits. Melissa has been awesome, too.Go visit.“
“A hidden little gem! This place served up some really good food. I came for a small lunch bite and found it on a google search. I would recommend it if you like authentic mexican flavors. There is no indoor seeting bilut nice outdoor seeting available.“
“Really great spot for authentic Mexican without any frills. Small interior but welcoming -- they're honest, affordable, and the food is great. Super glad to have found this spot so close to home.P.S. -- thank you for saying something when I went to pay in cash after forgetting I'd already paid online!“

“Tijuana Tacos is an absolute gem in the world of Mexican cuisine, and I can't give them anything less than a 5-star rating. We recently indulged in their Carnitas burrito and Carne Asada platter, and I must say, it was a taste sensation from start to finish.The Carnitas burrito was a delicious explosion of flavors, with perfectly cooked pork and a medley of mouthwatering ingredients. The Carne Asada platter was equally impressive – the meat was tender, well-seasoned, and grilled to perfection.Portions were generous, making it an excellent value for your money. The service was prompt, and the staff were friendly, adding to the overall positive experience.Tijuana Tacos truly delivers an authentic taste of Mexico, and I can't wait to return to sample more from their menu. If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine, don't miss out on this culinary delight. It's a must-visit for any food enthusiast.“
“Love this place! My husband and I have a standing date night here once/month. I love the guacamole and chicken enchiladas with green sauce. They also have fantastic mojitos. My husband loves the bisteces encenobollados and pollo dos quesos. Their service is fantastic. Tonight our server was Megan and she was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and went over the top to accommodate us and our son. If you’re looking for quality, authentic Mexican cuisine, delicious drinks and great service, try Los Sarapes!“
“ABSOLUTELY!! I surprised a friend with lunch and it was amazing!! It is 4 days later and she is still raving about it! So much so a Monday lunch with friends is in the planning!! The staff was polite and kind! Not a negative word to say about El Limon!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“
“Title: A Culinary Masterpiece: The Unforgettable Chicharrón ExperienceRating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐In the world of gastronomic delights, there are few experiences that truly transcend the ordinary, and the chicharrón at Chechorón does just that. This dish isn't merely food; it's a culinary masterpiece, a testament to the incredible skill and passion behind its creation.From the very first bite, it's clear that this chicharrón is in a league of its own. The outer layer is exquisitely crispy, providing a satisfying crunch that is the hallmark of perfectly prepared chicharrón. But it's not just the texture that astonishes; it's the depth of flavors that unfold with each bite. There's a delicate balance of savory and just the right hint of spice, creating a symphony of tastes that dance on the palate.The meat itself is a revelation. Tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection, it speaks volumes of the expertise and care that goes into its preparation. Each piece is a harmonious blend of flavors, so rich and succulent that it practically melts in your mouth, leaving a lingering taste that beckons you back for more.What makes this chicharrón truly stand out is the way it encapsulates the essence of its origins while bringing something entirely new to the table. It respects the traditional preparation methods, yet there's an innovative touch that elevates it to a modern culinary marvel. It's clear that the chef has not only mastered the art of cooking chicharrón but has also poured their heart and soul into every aspect of its creation.Parking: great“
“We had a wonderful experience at El Vago. The food is authentic Mexican gourmet. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate. Parking is free and convenient. The service is personal and accommodating. Reservations are recommended.Parking: Plenty of parking spots very close to the restaurant.“
“Simply the best. I lived in California for 15 years and this is the closest I’ve found on the east coast to the excellent Mexican food along CA’s Highway 1. Homemade tortillas, too!My 10 year old wants to make sure I write “OMG you have to go to this place!” And she’s right!Kid-friendliness: Great for kids; chicken fingers and hard shell beef tacos are available!“
“My family and I ordered food from here for the first time recently. My only regret is not ordering from here sooner. We all loved the food we ordered and when we picked up our order the woman who rung us up was so friendly and inside the restaurant looked and smelled amazing. I already can’t wait to order from there again.“
“My wife and I have been customers of Tijuana Tacos for many years and they have never disappointed. Our favorites are the flautas and burritos. Friendly staff and nice restaurant. Glad they are on DoorDash for the times we just want to stay in and order delivery!“
“Best sopes I've ever had and I would know because I search far and wide for the most authentic Mexican food and by god have I found it. If you haven't been to this wonderful establishment then get yourself down here and get a chicken sopes or whatever floats your boat. I promise you won't waste any time or money by coming here“
“Very tasty, fresh authentic Mexican cuisine. I really like the empanadas and tacos. Not a bad price for a very tasty lunch or dinner. Have not tried any of the pastries, but we'll give it a try in the future. You can walk in, call, or order online and get your food in a timely fashion.“
“Excellent first time experience at Rodeo today for my husband's birthday! The food and margaritas were absolutely delicious. The service was amazing, Tatiana was super attentive and provided awesome hospitality. Gran Rodeo will definitely be in our top 3 “
“Perfect place for a bite to eat while out and about visiting my mother at the nursing home. Wanted some Mexican food or some gyros from Theos, but they were closed so found Bubbakoos. Excellent stop and service was good! Their fried Oreos are dangerously good!!! ?and everything else was fab!! Def worth the stop! Will be back!!“
“I highly recommend El Limon to all of my friends. We order from the Skippack location for take-out the most and they're fast, friendly, and always on point! I wish they had more of a dining room there but the outside area seems nice during the summer months!“
“I had to add a photo of the front of this restaurant/bakery. Working around the corner allows me to visit this hidden gem regularly. Every time I've eaten at Mercy's the first bite always gives me the same reaction: "GOD! This is too damn good!!!" The food is so carefully prepared that every bite allows you to envision the love and passion the family has for their customers and their business. Currently the building is shared with a Subway, but there's no reason for the subway. I understand the desire for variety but the owner of the complex has to realize how Mercy's can provide that variety if they had access to the entire building. The atmosphere is definitely crowded and nowhere near big enough for the customer traffic flow that goes in and out of this restaurant, but I've never felt closer to a staff than I do here. I've barely spoken to the people who work here but the atmosphere makes me feel like I've been invited over to their home for a lunch made just for me. If you haven't tried Mercy's bakery yet and you live near Lansdale PA you are missing out in a big way. Go in, say hello, and enjoy some of the most authentic and delicious baked goods and Mexican food you will ever have. To the staff at Mercy's, thank you for all of the incredible meals I've had and will continue to have!“
“Small restaurant with great food! The service is very good and the experience is very authentic. I've gone multiple times with family and friends, and everyone has loved it. If anyone is looking for authentic and great food, this is the spot!“
