South Philly Barbacoa

Yesenia and Philip 5 months ago

South Philly Barbacoa was such a gift to have at our wedding. Not only was it so special to have our guests try the best of the best barbacoa philly has to offer, but having Chef Cristina at the event was such a cherry on top. The food was incredible and they were willing to accommodate a menu change for my dad who has a seafood allergy. We never felt pressure from them food-wise and it was super easy to make adjustments to the order up until the week of the wedding. For my side of the family especially, I know it was a nostalgic experience to order from the cart set up for tacos and it was comforting to get to chat with Cristina. She was truly the best–fixing us a plate and making sure my husband and I ate at cocktail hour and at dinner. (photos by Lilith & Eve)

This is the best tacos I've ever had. No lie, it's really really good. I use onions, cilantro, cactus and a green sauce they provide as toppings. Taste buds instantly delighted! Customer Service is always good. I love their Horchada and Jamaica (hibiscus) juices.

Really great tacos! The classic barbacoa is so tender and delicious, especially with all the salsas, pickled, and fresh veggies that are self-serve. But the pancita was a true standout- don’t be scared by the offal! I could eat those every day! And the tortillas are so fresh, soft, and delicious, They also now have a self- service kiosk where you can pay by credit card now, otherwise it’s cash/venmo if you order at the counter. Also, get the consome!

This was our first meal upon returning to the US. I missed true Mexican food so much. And South Philly Barbacoa did not disappoint. I had the steak taco with rice & beans lunch meal. Blue corn tortillas. All delicious. And super friendly service.
