It took me a very long time to find a good quality taco in my last town. When I finally did, that taco was being served out of a humble truck parked in front of a dingy gas station where down-on-their luck folks would linger and pick cigarette butts out of trash cans. Took about 30 mins to drive there, and I was happy to do it.
Now, having just moved to Point Breeze, I find Philly Tacos at an unreasonably convenient 400 feet from my door. It's adorably decorated with happy-looking plants and a fun luchador mask collection hanging on the cheery azure walls. Sadly, I didn't have the opportunity to dine in this time around, but it seems like a nice family-run environment. I had no complaints about the quick & friendly service. Most importantly, they're serving up a damn fine al pastor taco packed with fresh & flavorful ingredients.
Loved it!

Update: Upping my original review from 4 to 5 stars for two reasons. One — the owner Carlos helped me out of a bind tonight, showing genuine neighborly kindness and hospitality. Two — I tried the pure creamy crunchy sugar cinnamon indulgence that is their churro. I would give this taco joint 6 stars if I could.
Nice spot at the Spruce Street Harbor Park! I went during the weekday, pre-happy hour time. Me and my husband walked right up without a line and ordered the al pastor tacos. Super delicious! Right amount of spice for those who like it. Next time we go, we'll have to ask if they sell their sauces. 😃
Excellent local Mexican food restaurant. I've only done carry out but dine in is available. Fantastic service, I received my order <10 minutes after ordering. I got chorizo tacos and a chorizo burrito, both were delicious. Reasonably priced
I went when they opened up around 3pm so there wasn't a big crowd. This is how I prefer, quiet and relaxed. The service was wonderful. The waitress made it feel very welcoming. Food was good also.
my boyfriend and I recently tried this restaurant for the first time and LOVED it!! service, food, and aesthetic were great. we will be Philly tacos newest regulars <3
always a great experience. pleasant quick and informative customer service. great food!
Food is always good! My favorite is the pork chuleta tacos!
The staff were so friendly, warm and welcoming, you could just tell they take a lot of pride in their food. We opted for a light option with a zucchini blossom taco in addition to their signature al pastor. The tortillas had a nice flavor and chew but the fillings were the star, by far some the best pork you will find, tender and juicy. I had never tried a zucchini blossom taco before, I was impressed by how much flavor they got into them though. The toppings were all fresh and played their parts well but I could always go for more pineapple. Generous amount of filling to tortilla and it came together in a marvelous mariachi masterpiece that would keep the fiesta going all night. I would happily make this my regular taco joint.
It was quaint and cozy. My server Julie was so helpful. She explained the menu and her favorite dishes. I took here advice and had Alambre and it was Amazing!!! When I go back...I'm getting that again and I will surely go back!!
Adventurous vegetarians and enjoyers of interesting mushrooms, look no further. Huitlacoche, squash blossom, and mushroom tacos were great. I liked the huitlacoche more before I realized what it was (corn mushroom) but it was exciting to try something new. I might like a bean taco option a little more, though 🥑🌶🌮
Have gotten food from here a few times. The food is always delicious, fantastic birria and al pastor tacos. Very much traditional Mexican style tacos with the meat, onions, and cilantro on a corn tortilla. Quickly becoming one of my favorite places in the neighborhood to walk to for a bite to eat.
Might be the best al pastor tacos I've ever had! Free beer was a bonus. The owner is very sweet.
Great food at this neighborhood spot, got the al pastor tacos and carne enchilada tacos. Went on a Saturday night and no wait for a table. Next time will BYOB!
I had been wanting to try birria tacos for a while and was so excited to finally try some here . So good!! And the lady who helped me was so nice and helpful, can't wait to be back :)
If it isn't the best burrito I've ever had, it's a close second. I didn't need to add a single thing to it. Nada. It was amazing from the first bite, and I didn't want to finish it. Trust me on this!
