The tacos here are so good! I am from California (San Diego has the BEST Mexican food in the states hands down). I have been having a hard time finding good, REAL Mexican food in MD & PA. I was on my lunch break close by and decided to give this place a try because I had heard about their food. I am SO GLAD that I stopped by. I got the carne asada, al pastor, and carnitas tacos. They actually messed up my al pastor and gave me ground beef instead. But the carnitas and the carne asada were so good that I was able to look past that little mistake. The meat had such great flavors and the tortillas actually tasted like home instead of store bought. The salsa was not bad, but it needed a little more salt. You can't beat the prices here either. 100% recommend. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here and will definitely be stopping by again whenever I'm in PA.

Asada tacos

The food is delicious. Never ever disappointed!! It's always fresh and makes your mouth water!! I call it food porn. I would highly highly recommend anybody to eat here!! It's not expensive at all and you will leave full!!

Very good Mexican. There's not much to the place inside. A few booths, a soda cooler, a soda fountain (that's broken) and a big screen television tuned to one of the Spanish-language channels. The simple black and white menu promises a list of Mexican dishes from the usual tacos and burritos to chiles rellenos and chuletas de puerco en salsa. I opted for the Barbacoa de res (beef roast) in red sauce. As the drink options were so limited, I decided to take it to go, as I have a couple of beers left over in the hotel room. I managed not to pull over and eat it in the car because it smelled absolutely wonderful. And when I finally unwrapped it, it also looked great. A good portion of rich beef with onions and avocado and sliced tomato in one container, yellow rice and pinto beans in the other container, plus four warm corn tortillas wrapped in foil. It was excellent. Again, the place doesn't look fancy. That's okay. The food is why you're here.

O MY GOD this was freakin AWESOME. Never before have I not been able to eat two tacos and 2 sopapillos. Trust me. There was a lot of food. The Chorizo is really flavorful and not as greasy as most places. The sopapillos were out of this world and if they don't make their own corn tortillas you could have fooled me. The churiqueso was downright heavenly. Skip the chips or tortillas and just eat it like a soup. You're not going to find a better lunch or dinner spot for Mexican. Especially for the price.

Al pastor and Asada tacos
Keight K.

Tacos are delicious every time. The marinade is always spot on, al pastor and asada are our favorites. Loads of toppings, the tacos are always packed to the brim. Inexpensive, we eat here multiple times a week. The corn shells are on point and totally different than other taco places we've been to. The staff is very friendly and the inside of the restaurant, although small, is just what you'd expect! We absolutely love it here!

Spicy pork taco

We loved this restaurant. The food is super delicious and the prices are extremely cheap. They give huge portions. These are tacos, but I also had fajitas and loved them. The flavor is bold and delicious. I highly recommend it!

Street tacos

My mom lives nearby and we love coming here. I've lived in Mechanicsburg and now Florida. Hands down, the best street tacos ever! I love the variety of meats. You can tell everything is made fresh, I love the green salsa. My husband loves to drink their horchata and you get a huge glass of it. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, look no further!

Poor service! When they get an order wrong they do not fix it nor want to give you your money back.

Amazing food! Don't judge the place by the outside appearance. They were out of some things, but we got quesadillas and they were fantastic!

We stopped at Grace Pizza Restaurant on a Saturday evening around 4:15pm because we were already in…read morethe Chambersburg area and needed a solid pizza plan before another event later that day. When we walked in, it was quiet quiet -- like, "are we early or is this a hidden gem?" quiet. We were maybe the 5th and 6th people in the place. I found Grace while panic-scrolling Yelp for a legit slice within a very specific radius, and it popped up right at the top. A bunch of reviews mentioned the mysterious "yellow crust," which immediately hooked me. Yellow crust? Say less. We were officially intrigued and fully on board for whatever adventure this was about to be. Then we saw it. The 4 Flavor Pizza. One medium pizza. Four different kinds. Two slices of each. For $17. Absolute genius. We didn't even glance at the rest of the menu after that. Our lineup: Hawaiian, pepperoni & mushroom, onion & sausage, and bacon & meatball. I have never seen a pizza shop offer this and honestly... why isn't everyone doing this?! We grabbed a Coca-Cola and a Diet Pepsi, bringing our total to around $25, and I asked if they could cut the slices in half so we could really maximize our flavor-sampling experience. Zero hesitation. No side-eye. Just a cheerful "sure!" (10/10 already.) The pizza came out quickly and looked fantastic. And yes -- the crust really is yellow. Not "kind of yellow." Not "maybe the lighting." YELLOW yellow. There was absolutely no hiding the fact that something different was happening here. Adventure Buddy immediately went into detective mode, cracked the case, and couldn't help himself -- he asked the person behind the counter to confirm his theory. And as much as it pains me to say it... he was right. EGG. Tons of egg in the dough. That's the secret. The result is a crust that's fluffy, slightly sweet, and completely unlike your standard pizza crust. Grace Pizza was a win for me. This is a very specific kind of pizza -- the kind you crave when you want something a little different -- but when that craving hits, I'll know exactly where to go. Plenty of parking since it's in a strip mall. Pro tip: check your directions ahead of time. Grace sits on a main road that is a real pain in the ass to turn around on if you miss your turn. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Service was great but it is really a Mexican restaurant. Also way too much cheese on the pizza.read more
