    Nachos

    I stopped by too ok order loaded nachos to go. After letting them only sit for a short 15 min they turned into a soggy mess. I've ordered them before without this being an issue. Must have just been off today.

    Whats there not to love about some authentic Mexican food. I would eat anything on this menu. Usually I stick to burritos because of all the flavor that it retains as your biting into it. Highly recommend this local hidden gem.

    El Limon, the Mexican Cocina that has expanded locally to 16 shops, has always been a favorite of mine for comida Mexicana in the region. I have visited four or five locations over the years and always found them to be authentic, creative and down to earth in the atmosphere department - utilitarian without painted carved chair ostentation. They are good eats at good prices. My recent visit to their new Bensalem store has me reconsidering my past impressions. Maybe they are growing too fast, or their supply lines are stretched too thin by coming into Bucks County from Montgomery, or COVID logistics have overwhelmed them, but the charming delicious gestalt of past exposure was not present in this place. I ordered a Torta Milanese (thin breaded fried beef sandwich) and Horchata rice drink. I've had both before at their other locales. Overlooking for the moment that the servers forgot to set up my table with flatware, napkins or glass of water even after delivering my meal, the sammy itself was a shadow of its previous self. Less meat, less chipotle mayo, less avocado, and a kaiser roll from the discount day old shelf at the back of their bakery. It was soft, tasteless and dry. There was no way they used such inferior bread on any other visits; in fact in the past their rolls had stolen the show they were so good. Not this time. It was a complete sad sack. Clearly, quality control has taken a hit at El Limon Bensalem. They need to step up their training in customer service, and seriously reevaluate their bread purveyor. At least the Horchata was quite good.

    Carnitas Quesadilla

    I've ordered so many times via Uber eats and food has always been super tasty. If good is good via delivery, I'll bet it's better dining in. I always order the carnitas quesadillas that my kids eat and I get the Tinga marinated chicken tacos. The sauces that comes with it (green and red) is beyond tasty and I always have extras to pour over my homemade tacos

    El Limon is a staple and has been one of my favorite restaurants - Everytime I'm In Conshohocken, I have to stop here. When I found out there was an El Limon 20 minutes away from me and that it opened last month, I was so excited! I placed a phone order for pick up - 3 tacos: chicken tinga, chorizo, al pastor & a grilled chicken burrito. They also were kind and included the different sauces: tomatillo, mole, and chipotle. My order was ready when I got there and eagerly took it home. I started off with the tacos and they were so salty, unbearably salty and I was so disappointed. I ate the burrito later that evening and it was great. One of the sauces also tasted salty. I'm hoping it was an off day cause just like love, food deserves a second chance too!

    Tacos Al Pastor supreme

    I love El Limon so much! Take out is just as good as eating in, which is hard to say about Mexican food in general. Everything is packed well when you get your food to go. My personal favorites are the enchiladas with mole sauce and the tacos al pastor. Everything is fresh and cooked fast. If you eat in, they have complimentary margaritas, if that's your thing. They also have jamaica, horchata, Mexican Coke in a bottle, and Jarritos in a bottle. ¡Muy delicioso!

    The food was passable, not the best, but the service was very rude and the place looked very, very dirty.

The food was very tasty I had the al pastor tacos and they were absolutely delicious. The price was very reasonable for each item. I definitely recommend this place for a tasty and cost effective meal.

    We'd been looking for another good Mexican restaurant and friends recommended Provecho Mexican…read moreGrill. We drove to Huntingdon Valley and among warehouses and storage complexes, we turned into Provecho. It has a warm atmosphere with Spanish music playing in the background. We ordered the Shrimp Fajitas and the Chicken and Steak Fajitas. The dishes come loaded with freshly grilled red and green bell peppers and onions. The rice is cooked perfectly with a mild seasoning, the guacamole is delicious and has great texture, and last but not least, the pico de gallo was flavor packed! We had all the necessary toppings for our fajitas. The Shrimps were tender and succulent, we rolled them up in the flour tortillas and had some great shrimp fajitas! The Steak and Chicken were cut into thin strips, but were tender and tasty - we proceeded to wrap the slices into another flour tortilla and enjoyed them as well. The only item we didn't eat were the beans - they were too watery with no flavor. It's a small restaurant, but was busy on a Saturday night and filled up fast; we noticed a great deal of people picking up orders. We agreed we had found another destination that serves good Mexican food; we'll be back.

    Wanted Mexican food (actually margaritas lol) after bowling with friends and Mill Street was under…read more2 miles away from where we were so it was an obvious decision to try them out. The restaurant is in this cute little area with shops, restaurants and bars and is a popular destination because when we were leaving out after finishing our meal the place was jam packed and there was at least an hour wait (but no wait when we came in thankfully). It's important to note that this is NOT authentic Mexican food ... but it was pretty good nonetheless. The margarita flight was cute and gave us the ability to try a few flavors out before committing to a large one. The favorites were the white peach and pineapple margaritas (the other 2 in the flight were the traditional and prickly pear). We ordered the Crab Mexican Street Corn for an appetizer and while it was loaded with crab, it wasn't Mexican Street Corn ... it was seasoned corn with old bay and a few other ingredients topped with crab. I ordered the Steak & Shrimp Combo Fajitas which was a nice portion size (I took 3/4 home) and the flavors were pretty darn tasty, but when you order fajitas you expect the "sizzle" and these didn't have that nor were they have the right temperature ... they were just warm when I wanted and expected them to be hot. The refried beans were yummy despite them not looking too appetizing but the rice was too soft. Service was good overall and pricing was also reasonable. If we're in the neighborhood again and in the mood for margaritas we may just stop back in.

    I recently visited Mill Street Cantina twice and came away disappointed. It was highly recommended…read moreby a couple of friends. The inside was clean and the bar area I sat at although small was a decent spot to have a drink and grub. The staff was mostly young kids who were very nice. The chips and salsa they offer were boring. The salsas both roja and verde lacked flavor, mostly spice. The chips were fresh, but thick and bland. I think a thinner homemade style would work better. The first bartender I dealt with was great with the menu. She recommended several menu items. I ended up rolling with the Shrimp and Crab Enchiladas at $18 - jumbo lump crab, old bay cream cheese, tiger shrimp, cilantro and lime rice. The lime rice was worthless. It had zero flavor and was dry. The Enchiladas were creamy, but lacked spice and complexity. The tiger shrimp had a delicious grilled, moist flavor and were the best part. My second trip had a newer bartender who was getting her feet wet. She was friendly, but busy familiarizing herself with the bar so I went simple and ordered Birria Tacos - $15 Braised beef, onions, cilantro, lime Oaxaca cheese, consommé. The beef was dry and not tender. The shells were ok. The best part was the lime Oaxaca cheese and the consommé somewhat helped me get the beef down. The portion was very small. Not a good value in my humble opinion. The other patrons were mostly young and enjoying margaritas. I think booze is the draw to this spot. Without it your just getting average Mexican grub. Heck of a location in the Borough, but my visits left me longing for a hot pepper!
