Taqueria La Raza - Shrimp Birria Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Came here for lunch twice. Pretty solid food and very nice staff! I tried a bunch of tacos and the asada, al pastor and carnitas were all pretty good. I also love their rice (I have a thing for spanish/mexican rice). Did I mention that their complimentary chips and salsa is pretty amazing? My friend only comes here for their tripas tacos which he swears by and my sister tried the lenguas tacos and she loved it. Awesome place for a quick lunch, you can't beat those prices and plenty of street parking nearby! read more

Taqueria La Raza - Simple yet delicious - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

See all

While the food is good, service is slow and its hard to customize things. They don't really do substitions and seemed confused with my order. Took a while for take-out, even though there were no other orders on the queue. They have birria apparently as well. Loved the steak and pork though read more

Worst tacos I ever had clearly they are not Mexican because you wouldn't cook steak tacos like if it was a cheesesteak with peppers n onions I have a thing that If the tacos ain't good the food can't be any better .. price n service was great but....... read more

Taqueria La Raza - two cars parked on the side of the road - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Tacos were delicious although needed some salt.. just my opinion.. but good food and value

I didnt like the food today. The cheese was nasty, no authentic mexican one like always. i order and they serve whatever they wants. I waste my money today. I dont think so that I come back again there read more

I wish I knew about this place!! It's a tiny place in a random area but it's cuter in the inside than what it looks like on the out. Service is quick. Food is clean (at least it looks and tastes clean..) Cheap price The chips given with the red and green sauces are great. I got the soft shell tacos with chorizo and spicy chicken They really give you lots of meat. I actually wanted less of spicy chicken in mine. The chorizo taco was veryyyy good. Topping the red and/or green sauce with the tacos made it bettter. The loud latino music makes the food more authentic. I will DEF come back. I loved my experience here. read more

If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, look no more! Taqueria La Raza offers an incredible variety of authentic mexican dishes that leave you wanting more. Not only is their food delicious, their customer service is on point! Very friendly staff, happy to serve. I ordered the beef flautas and my boyfriend had the chicharron burrito. They were both fingerlicking good!! I can't wait to go back and try something new!! I would recommend this place without a doubt!!! read more

Best place for Mexican food. Everything is fresh and the flavor is there. Be aware if you don't eat spicy make sure to let them know . The aguas frescas are awesome well everything is delicious. We go there every chance we have. 100% recommended read more

Family-owned friendly restaurant with tasty food! The chips and salsa they bring out before is awesome and is refilled constantly! The green and red salsa is delicious. I'm a fan of the deshebrada (beef) and the spicy chicken (can't remember the name). All portions are huge! Interestingly, they sell random things at the counter like perfume and cologne. :) +1 star for saving Temple dental students from Subway and hospital food every day. read more

I love this little place, good quality authentic Mexican food, friendly staff, and the prices are extremely reasonable.

Where do all the good reviews here come from? You don't know ? Me neither! This is a sub-average spot with sub-average food. They get an extra star for being friendly. Definitely some better spots close by. read more

Decent Mexican food for cheap. I placed my food for take out because of the area it was in. The location was a little hard to find, and a bit sketchy. But the people working there were friendly, and food was prepared fairly quick. I probably won't come back again since the location is sort of far, however, if you are in the area definitely worth checking out a Mexican hole in the wall place such as this. read more

Taqueria La Raza - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This used to be my go to Mexican spot but not after my last visit. I called in my order and went to pick up. My order was ready in about 10 minutes when I walked in. Friendly service as usually. Now the tacos. The chorizo was okay at best. Nothing great. The Asada was flavorless and worse I had barely any cilantro or onions. It didn't satisfy my taco craving. read more

This place is a hidden gem! A friend an I decided to take a gamble on this place based on the reviews, and despite being the cheapest, it is my favorite of 6 Mexican restaurants in Philly. The chorizo burrito was perfect, with just the right amount of creamy sauces smothered on top and flanked with crisp lettuce with a few slivers of green onions thrown in to give is some flavor. edit: I'm not sure if free water is an option here. But, I 'm fine with paying a dollar for the water since the food was well worth it. read more

Went for a second time the day after my first, which was two days ago. Tamales repeat (dry meat or not, they're really good), one chorizo taco on HOME MADE CORN TORTILLAS that are the best corn tortillas I've ever had, one tongue taco (try it: best. flavors. ever.), and more home made chips with the incredible salsa verde that I cannot ingest enough of. No shame in my game, having dinner there tonight. read more

Nice people, tiny place. I had a veggie burrito, guacamole and pico de gallo. Burrito was ok, not enough beans, the guacamole and the pico must have been sitting there for a while, chips were SO fried. read more

Best burritos in north Philadelphia and the prices are reasonable the women their are very nice I usually go here during my 40 minute lunch break and the service is always great read more

Food was great. Service was friendly. Got takeout, Torta Carnita. Everything was fresh and well put together. Will go again.

I didn't know Philly could do good Mexican food until I found this place. The burritos are amazing. And they have El Pastor! I always go here when I'm nearby. You should too. read more

I ate in with my boyfriend. They provided chips and salsa - standard but tasty. We ordered a mango shake, which was good but could have been more flavorful. I had a torta. It was a pretty generous portion - after half the chips and half the shake, I could only eat half the sandwich. Also pretty standard - good but not amazing. Overall, I was satisfied. read more

One guy named Gerald gave a bad review. He must know NOTHING of authentic Mexican cuisine. I lived in Los Angeles for 10 years, and I DO know Mexican food. This place in the best. Authentic street tacos with the seasoned meat, onion and cilantro on two corn tortillas. The burritos and chimichangas are also to die for and are HUGE!!! AMAZING place, great people. read more

Great service, delicious food, vegetarian options. The mega quesadilla and the large horchata are enough to keep me happy for days. Very affordable, and complimentary chips and salsa to start! read more

I was probably overly ambitious with my pork rind burrito, but it lacked the crispness I am fond of in cracklings. The food was plentiful and filling and inexpensive, so it's not prudent to complain too much. But I think if the cracklings weren't soaked in sauce, the burrito would've been more enjoyable. Still good enough to go to if you're in the area, but not out of your way. read more

Don't be fooled by the location or first impression of the restaurant front.Great AUTHENTIC Mexican cuisine at great prices. Highly recommended read more

Taqueria La Raza is pretty good and pretty cheap.

I went here for a work lunch. We actually ate inside of the restaurant. It was really good! The chips and salsa they give you in the beginning are mighty tasty. The spice levels were perfect. I could tell that they fry their own tortilla chips on the premises. The chips were so crisp and not overly salted. I decided to be adventurous and get something I haven't tried before and it turned out extremely well or me. For my entree, I got the shredded beef chimichanga. Oh boy it was delicious!! There were so many wonderful flavors. The beef was cooked perfectly and it was very tender and seasoned well. They put a powdered cheese on top which I thought was wierd at first but it really complemented the dish. The prices are great only $8 for my dish. I totally recommend this place and when I am in the area I will defintely grab some food to go. read more

Real mexican food!! It's really good and affordable!!! Service could be better and that's the main reason I gave them 4 stars. They are updated with technology play music for you to enjoy. read more

I was craving Mexican one day at work and the closest spot in the neighborhood was La Raza. The outside was well kept and the inside was spotless. The food was prepared quickly and was super tasty. What's even better is I found out they deliver. We are now ordering once a month from there and couldn't be happier about it! read more

So good! Worth ur time and money. The customer service was amazing, the food was cheap and delicious. And the horchata? The best I ever had! read more

Food is awesome! Very fresh and authentic! One of my go to places for Mexican take out.

The customer service is great and the food is incredibly amazing by far the best Authentic Tacos I have had. I have not had anything from La Raza that was not good, the food is flavored perfectly...Thank You La Raza for blessing me with great food. Keep up the great work! read more

OMG this is a well kept secret. Very good food at very good prices. Get the Allambre but come hungry and prepare to take some home. Nice little family/neighborhood place where Spanish is the main language. read more

I've eaten here many times and the food and the service is amazing. The prices are good and the food is very fresh. I love the veggie burrito and guacamole. It's a hidden secret and don't be discouraged by the location. Don't forget to try the tacos on Tuesday!! read more

Had the carnitas, ground beef and sauteed steak tacos, which were all so bland, and the shredded steak quesadilla, which was just ok. Their rice and refried beans are pretty good, but that wasnt what i was interested in. All in all it was a waste of money for me, taco bell wouldve tasted better read more

Haven't been here in awhile, so must go again. But delicious from my past few experiences. The service is great, and so is the food! Especially for prices. Now I'm in the mood for some guac! read more

My favorite local Mexican spot. I recommend the Horchata (hope i spelled that correctly) for something to drink, non alcoholic. Their burritos are good, my favorite kind is "al pastor" which is pork gyro. Tacos are really good as well. read more

Great service. Delicious food. Fast deliveries. Get their Quesadilla Al Pastor. You won't regret it.

Love this place service is great and food has the authentic Mexican flavor everything is cook on the moment
