Welcome Back to Part 14 of Places in Philly I am regular at! @lalloronaphilly is not the average Mexican restaurant, it’s an experience. I have been coming here from 2021! And it’s only gotten better with time. . They have some of the best HH in the city, their Tacos are delicious, and the Camerones Diablos? 🔥🔥🔥 Probably one of the spiciest dishes in Philly that I crave for and enjoy as well! . Their Pastry chef created a new pistachio Tres Leches which was just right. . Now if you are already planning your visit, let me give you an even better idea- Do BRUNCH! . @lalloronaphilly has an incredible brunch. .

I’ve seen La Llorona all over my Instagram reels and finally took a trip there to see what’s up. Right in the heart of South Philly is this beautful spot serving amazing Mexican food staples with indoor and outdoor seating. The drinks here are FANTASTIC - so tasty and made very well. The Queso Fundido may be the best I have ever had, and I mean that. But the Albondigas (Mexican Meatballs) were a 12/10, a tiny kick to them and really well seasoned. The tacos are the star here: I loved the Shrimp Tacos, bur Brenda got the new Broccoli Rabe Tacos that were so garlicky and absolutley delicious. The La Llarona Burger was amazing, who would think a Mexican spot who have such a killer burger!? The fried egg totally makes it!!! The Hanger Steak is cooked to perfection and it was hard to not devour this entire thing in one sitting - but we could have!!! But I think my favorite was the Guajillo Adobe Ribs - W O W. These fell right off the bone and were INSANELY, ridiculously delicious. I love a build your own so I loved that it cane with a side of onions and cilantro and freshly made tortillas to build your perfect bite. You also cannot skip the Tres Leches made with blue corn - so yummy and unique! If you’re looking for a solid spot with amazing food and drinks, don’t sleep on La Llorona!!! When you go, grab a Margarita with a flavor of the day, & be sure to tell ‘em PFAB sent ya!!! 📍1551 West Passyunk Avenue Philadelphia PA 19145📍 Thanks for having me @lalloronaphilly !!!
