They have everything on their menu. The quality of the food was okay, particularly in its freshness. The rice was very tasty and fresh, and actually that was my first time trying enchiladas with this sauce. The atmosphere was amazing, it’s its own Mexican world in the heart of south Philly on a random corner. I loved it. If they have events, I’d like to visit again.

It’s a small corner cafe style restaurant and the food was amazing and the drinks were great too. Came here with some friends and it was good service with complimentary sides

What a great place! Breakfast menu ends at 1pm, but that's ok, they have quite an impressive menu, and they give you such colossal amounts of food! Look how big this chorizo burrito is! Churros are awesome! Coffee, soda, tacos, this place offers so much. Friendly people, fast service, good food, recommended. Do yourself a favor, cancel your lunch plans and come to La Cocina on the corner of Broad and Dickinson instead.

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Philly! The people who work there are always so pleasant and friendly. The food is so flavorful and consistent. Always excited to go there. Perfect for a casual lunch or dinner.

Okay so I'm not going to lie, I was a little impatient about waiting for this sandwich. I just popped in this cute, unassuming corner joint to get my husband something quick for lunch. Or so I thought. It felt like I was sitting there, the only customer, on a wobbly stool, waiting for this takeout for an eternity. I've had a fair number of tortas in my time, and it seems like they always take like 5 or less mins to slap together before I'm on my way. This torta took a full TWENTY minutes to make. However, after walking home (somewhat grumpy) and trying a bite of this thing I immediately determined that I am not at all mad about waiting for this. It was fully 100% well worth it, and I will be back — I'll just call ahead next time. 5 stars. Compliments to the chef!
