a plate of mexican food
Payal P.

Went to a concert at the Mann. They had a bunch of food trucks at the venue. Usually I don't like food truck food unless I'm in dire need. This concert was one of those dire need times. I got chips and guacamole as well as a bowl that contained rice, tomatoes, onions, and cilantro. Honestly I was pretty impressed. They gave a fair amount of guacamole which is pretty rare for most places. The bowl was also very filling and they definitely used fresh ingredients. Hopefully I see you "El Tlaloc" at the next festival.

2 shrimp and whole bunch of lettuce, could barley taste the aioli

I ordered the shrimp tacos from their food truck today and they are absolutely the worst tacos I've ever had. The wait for shrimp was questionable but I looked past it. Upon receiving my food, off rip, presentation was a turn off as sauce was slipping in the container. I gave it the benefit of the doubt think flavor would save the whole ordeal, i did wait a while and paid $16. Safe to say, I will never order from this establishment again. I paid $16 for a soft shell lettuce taco, after the l first bite that's all that it. Save ya money and eat elsewhere

Chicken tacos $10

We had the opportunity to check out El Tlaloc last night at the Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company in Croydon, PA. Side note: NCBC is a super cool spot to hang out. They serve chicken, brisket, and shrimp tacos in sets of 3 ranging from $10-$13. Also offering quesadillas that looked appetizing. The service was phenomenal. The young man was efficient and accommodating. We ordered the brisket, shrimp and pollo, substituting lettuce and tomato for onions, cilantro and salsa verde. The food was done a little too quickly and lacked flavor. Very bland. Their homemade hot sauce ended up saving the day. All in all I wouldn't go back to eat there but it was a decent experience.

I got the check out El Tlaloc last Thursday night after a night in fishtown. Their truck was parked at the corner of Frankford and Girard. There were a few trucks to choose from so I went with this one. They have a pretty simple menu with a variety of tacos. I went with the brisket tacos for $10. First the corn tortilla, I love! I don't think it's a taco unless it's on corn. The brisket was delicious and perfectly cooked. It was also packed full of beef. The cilantro sauce was on point with the onions but I needed more. It needed something to cut the heaviness of the brisket, maybe pickled jalapeños, radish or something. I'm no chef but it was just very heavy. I would give El Tlaloc a solid 3 stars and I can't wait to try other variations of their tacos. FYI their homemade hot sauce is legit.

Brisket tacos, carnitas burrito. Good serving sizes!

BRISKET TACOS. That about sums up this spot. Absolutely delicious tacos, great prices, and friendly service.

three tacoss in a styrofoam container

I'm excited to have tacos so I go to good ol Girard food trucks. I come here and ordered Brisket tacos and Carnitas tacos minus the cilantro spend about 30 bucks. I get home ready to chow down, open the bag and BOOOM super plain tacos. I asked for no cilantro. I guess that means no lettuce no tomatoes no cheese My brother took a bite and we threw them all away Plain tacos are not tacos

This truck is staffed by friendly people. The Carnitas is insanely delicious. The burritos are gigantic and the Nachos are fresh. I can't say enough good things about this Food Truck. If you are on Spring Garden during the day make sure to give El Tlaloc a try.

Messy, and DELICIOUS.

One week this past summer we went to El Tlaloc when it was in Fishtown 3 times. The tacos are messy (double the corn tortillas for safety) and heavy. Lucky for this taco truck... that's what I LIKE

These guys are the REAL DEAL. Two weeks in a row: outstanding! Great taste, great menu, great value. And nice! Saw them again at #StickManBrews in Royersford. Come back!

Every visit to Reading Terminal Market reminds me why it's one of my favorite places to eat and…read moreexplore. This definitely wasn't my first time and it won't be my last. The food options are unmatched. No matter what you're craving, comfort food, international flavors, baked goods, or fresh produce, there's always something that hits the spot. Everything is consistently fresh, flavorful, and made with care, and it's easy to try something new each time while still going back to old favorites. The service across the vendors is always solid. Even when the market is busy, staff members are efficient, friendly, and clearly know what they're doing. You can tell many of them take pride in their craft, whether they're cooking, baking, or serving customers. The ambiance is what really sets Reading Terminal Market apart. It's lively, energetic, and full of character. The mix of locals, tourists, and longtime vendors gives the space a special kind of authenticity that you just don't get anywhere else. Yes, it can be crowded but that's part of the charm and a sign of how beloved the market is. Reading Terminal Market has been operating since 1893, making it one of the oldest continuously operating public markets in the U.S. and you can truly feel that history in every corner. Reading Terminal Market continues to deliver a great experience every time: amazing food, dependable service, and an atmosphere that feels uniquely Philadelphia. A must-visit and a must-return spot.

Date of visit: October 18, 2025…read more Selections: Numerous to the point of being overwhelmed Experience: We visited this place right before we left for the airport and I regret leaving this for last because we bought so many treats that we had to reconfigured into our suitcases. This places literally had rows and rows of eateries and places to get treats, snacks, and goodies. It was pretty crowded when we went and I'm not sure if it was because it's been hyped up as a place to visit or because of the No Kings Parade that had just ended around the time that we got there. We went down each and every aisle and I had to resist the temptation to have a second lunch because of all the variety of foods offered, including Filipino food that my husband actually ended up getting food from. We mostly leaned into getting sweets from various booths to enjoy on the way to the airport/at the airport as well as ones to take home to enjoy. I wish I could've brought cheese home, but for sure it wouldn't have lasted or held well. There was a discount with parking at the Hilton if we made a purchase, but couldn't figure that out, so ended up paying full price when exiting the parking structure. Would definitely come back again to actually eat there!

Our cocktail hour was outside, and the passed hor'dourves (lamb lollipop, cheesesteak springrolls, goat cheese/honey crisp, and smoked salmon) were all not only top notch, but lovely to look at! They were served in quick succession and there was never a minute guests wanted for food. They were great with the seated, plated meal indoors, too. I had two folks drop out last minute, one gluten free person, and a sudden addition - the caterer accomodated all of those things FLAWLESSLY. Also all of my special requests, from pre-plating the salad, to pre-pouring champagne for toasts, table wine service during the meal, to tastefully timing the pasta course service around speeches, were handled with great aplomb. I have nothing but good things to say abou their dinner service. Amy and Benji and their team were AMAZING. After dinner, I had opted to do dessert and coffee outside in the garden instead of the served dessert - and the Viennese display was stunning! La Colombe coffee was delicious, and they even provided a whole stack of "to-go" boxes so guests could make little mix/match dessert carry-outs for themselves and the extra wouldn't go to waste. It was a fantastic touch! Anyway, the moral of this long story is that I loved working with DiBruno Brothers and their service absolutely helped make my event a success. Their food was delicious (dinner options we picked were the veal piccata, chicken dibruno, and eggplant lombardy - all enjoyed by our guests) and beautifully plated. Their staff was polite and efficient, and they handled every curvebal beautifully! Highly recommend.

We hired Di Bruno Bros catering for our Super Bowl gathering at home because the food we typically…read morepick up at the Rittenhouse Square location is excellent. Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience this time. The mac and cheese was almost inedible, and the chicken wings were just mediocre. The only highlight was the hoagies. Given that we spent almost $500, we were very disappointed. Additionally, on the day of the event, I tried to call to check on our order but received a message saying they were closed. I had to contact the main store to confirm that our food was on the way. We would not use them again.

One of the hallmarks of the event is that we break the attendees up in smaller groups for meetings around town. I am so glad I discovered Tomato Catering. First, the food is fresh and delicious. It has that made from scratch with love and care feel. Over the years I have ordered the Nonna's Chicken, the Fajita Bar, Chicken Marsala, the Mediterranean bar, and a bunch of their salads. Our attendees love it. As the event coordinator, the next most important thing aside from taste and quality is meeting dietary needs of our guests. The Tomato Catering team is excellent here. All of their signage is clear and their dressings are vegan and again good. Super helpful. When you speak to their team whether it's Camille at their HQ or Jan at the West Chester location who made the food, they are extremely professional, on it, and and will make sure things are clarified so you never feel worried. We were able to coordinate delivery to each of our locations and their team setup the meals beautifully. Whether you are planning a personal event or a corporate meal like I was, I would absolutely recommend Tomato Catering without any reservations. They will be my first call again next year when we host our event back in West Chester.
