    Half bbq/buffalo

    Pros: -good service -inexpensive -good outside seatings Cons: -Food lacks flavor -The al pastor meat was so tough/hard that it hurts the roof of my mouth

    Trompo al Pastor Pizza
    Hayward L.

    Unique mix of Italian and Mexican flavors in this hole in the wall spot. Wasn't sure how I'd like the Al pastor pizza - turns out it was pretty darn good. The service was a little slow as only one person was working when we were there in the mid afternoon. Food came out quickly and prices are reasonable.

    The lamb pizza was AMAZING.
    Brandi D.

    The lamb was cooked to perfection. The chicken quesadilla was delicious everything was perfectly seasoned! and the customers service was amazing

    Chicken Tacos

    Those tacos were excellent. Seared chicken yum. Everything tasted so fresh. We'll definitely be back to this cute little spot!

    BYOB tequila and they'll make your Margarita table side with freshly made mixer !
    Bex Y.

    Food was absolutely incredible. Every single dish was thoughtful and delicious. Margarita mixer was home made and so fresh. Such a level of detail and care. Like eating in someone's home. Lamb pizza ridiculously tasty. The lava rock mixed grill so very impressive. Ordered the special appetizer which was my favorite dish all evening: chorizo and potato / chicken flautas served in a lava bowl with a delicious bed of tastiness underneath. The flan had a chia seed like grain which added texture and balance to the sweetness. The server explained the ingredient (can't recall the name). It was really neat to learn about the local flavors used deliberately to make the food authentic to the chef's hometown. The space was cute and cozy. Just wow from start to finish. Will absolutely be back!

    Al Pastor Pizza - heavenly

    The urge to gate keep this place is so strong but if you want to have great food, service and experience come to tonalli.

    Everything was awesome-- especially the lamb pizza and flautas special. Kind service, too! We'll be back!

    El Patriota pizza and Al Pastor tacos
    Robert G.

    Tonalli is absolutely amazing. Perfect BYOB Mexican spot with great pizza too. We ordered the nachos, al pastor tacos, and their el patriota pizza and everything tasted so fresh and was cooked perfectly.

    It's the place to go for authentic Mexican tacos. It's owned by a famous James Beard Award winning…read morechef. Cristina Martinez's lamb barbacoa and handmade heirloom corn tortillas are featured on at least 3 Netflix shows. It's a restaurant that we couldn't pass up, and it totally lives up to the hype. First of all, it's cash only. There's an ATM machine conveniently located inside the restaurant. The ordering process was easy. We were greeted immediately and handed a menu. The service here is fantastic! The staff greet you with smiles and warm welcomes. There's lots of indoor and outdoor seating. We were there at an off peak time so there were no issues finding a table. My husband ordered the 3 taco deal. He chose steak as the protein. I had 2 individual tacos so that I could try the barbacoa and cochinita pibil. We also split the guacamole with handmade chips. It came with 2 tasty hot sauces. I could definitely taste the jalapeño in the green sauce. My husband loved all the spicy toppings and sauces. It was exactly as we thought it would be in terms of flavor. Especially the cochinita pibil which is something we had previously in the Yucatan. Everything was so clean and fresh tasting. The technique in making the barbacoa truly brings out the full flavor of the lamb. The value was there considering the amount of protein in each taco. The toppings were all fresh and delicious. The nopales (cactus) was a new topping for me. I had a few on the side to try it. It was a nice addition to the barbacoa. I can't forget to include the mango agua fresca and complimentary cake in this review. The aqua fresca was the best I've ever had. The mango was all natural. I didn't detect any artificial flavors. I believe the cake was apple cinnamon. They make different ones daily or seasonally. It was the perfect ending, and not too sweet. Don't miss this gem in South Philly. It's on 9th Street and just south of the Italian Market area. It was totally worth a special trip. I'm so glad we got to experience it for ourselves.

The bar has a fantastic variety of tangy, spicy, bright toppings and salsas to make your taco your own. My favorite is always the reddish orange salsa and this one tastes just like the taco places back in Texas. The tacos are hefty, so that makes up for the slightly higher than average price. They didn't have jamaica when I went so they subbed in mango juice and it was incredible, my new go-to. Service is friendly, fast and there's plenty of seating and a nice outdoor space.

Good: old fashioned, tri-mix of guac (liked the truffle one), steak tacos. Not so good:coco tartare app, I thought most of the other tacos were tried were very okay for the price and would not recommend (shrimp, pastor (one of my least favorite versions of pastor), one with habaenro (not spicy at all). Would have enjoyed some actual spicy salsa to go with it. Overall, I sadly can't really recommend it.

The meat in the tacos was so dry that it was hard to chew and swallow. Some of the pieces were cooked to a crisp. No amount of salsa could make them better. I'm sorry I didn't take photos of the tacos, but trust me me I get no pleasure from leaving a bad review for this place; I am not lying or exaggerating. I thought they were going to be one of our local gems. I choked down a half a taco, gave the rest to my husband and he couldn't eat them either. The churros actually had raw batter in the middle and the outside was rubbery and hard at the same time. You could barely bite through it. I'm a cook and I know that that is about keeping the oil at an even temperature to get the inside done and not overcook the outside. Someone in the kitchen did not know what they were doing. The thing is, I have had their food before and it was pretty good. I don't know if there is a new chef or what happened, but I can't trust them after this experience.

They have a great Taco Tuesday deal with $1 tacos, offering carnitas and chicken tacos as part of the special. The carnitas tacos were seasoned perfectly -- 8/10. The only thing that would elevate them even more would be adding pico. The chicken tacos were a 4/10 unfortunately. They lacked flavor and tasted like plain boiled chicken placed on a tortilla, which was disappointing. We also ordered the Tres Salsa and chips. Out of the three salsas, the green and red were the standouts and packed the most flavor. For drinks, we ordered margaritas on the rocks ($5, plus $2 additional for flavor). I tried mango and passion fruit -- the mango tasted more like orange juice, while the passion fruit maintained its flavor much better. If you're looking for a family-friendly indoor/outdoor spot, this is a great option. I noticed a good mix of couples and singles, which made for a nice atmosphere. Bar seating is limited at night, and outdoor seating closes around 7:00 PM. Overall, for Taco Tuesday, I'd give it a 7/10 -- great atmosphere and deals, but food consistency could use some work.

Only thing --no disrespect but the young lady at the counter when I was there with purple hair --not who you want as your "front facing " person the minute you are greeted . Nice enough , just not what you'd call a "people person" Your front of the house should be the type who greet your guests heartily when they walk through the door and are not obvious introverts who are great diligent workers --but do best back of house where their other skills are valued d enhanced .thst is not the job for her , lol. Also one suggestion: if folks spend a certain amount --maybe over $20 , with the exception of guacamole due to food cost , I would not nickel and dime them over the small sides like a little more pico --food cost on those is low and you're tripping over the proverbial dollar --to pick up a nickel --providing small portions of those items --doesn't really affect your bottom line --and really keeps people coming back . Prices are good otherwise. Good value . If you want to cut back somewhere ,the amount of ground beef on the nachos could be cut in less than half and still be plenty and that will actually cut your food cost by a small fortune
