Stopped in to this place just before the big storm. Ordered chicken/steak/shrimp dish with rice and salad. Great value at $17. Wonderful and healthy food, cooked to order/fresh. Good value, good people. read more

Outstanding and a hidden gem! The food is delicious, flavorful, and authentic. Customer service was also amazing. We will be ordering again!

We had lunch at Guatemalan Kitchen today. First, the food is tasty and plenty. For the main dish, we had the combo plate with grilled shrimp, fried egg and fish fillet, which comes with Spanish rice, beans and salad; and another one with grilled chicken and shrimp which comes with 8 tortillas. Although we are hungry, we couldn't finish the plate and had plenty left overs. The one down side is service can be a little slow since there is just one server working the whole restaurant. read more

This place is fantastic. When you go in, you usually see a bunch of Central American people in there, so you know it is good. The prices are VERY reasonable. $7 will get you a full and satisfying meal. Their salsa/ hot sauces are very good. You can't go wrong with the pupusas, the sopes or the Guatemalan enchiladas ( not your typical enchilada) I haven't tried the pizza yet but I hear good things about it. read more

I am not out in the Phoenixville area very often. Since we were, we wanted to try and find something unique. Guatemalan Kitchen delivered. Describing Guatemalan Kitchen as a hole in the wall does not really do it justice. You enter the building into a sizable and very clean seating area. We had to head to the back to check out menus and place our orders. You also grab your own drinks from their refrigerators. In the back there are also a mini grocery offerings. However, once ordered, we could seat ourselves and wait as they would bring out the food. Everything we ordered food wise delivered tremendous value. We got the ceviche, which came in a huge margarita type glass and was full of shrimp. It was also very tasty and we went as far as to dip our other items in to get every last drop. The Guatemalan Enchiladas were a bit tricky for me to eat, but had great flavor. Something about the beets that tied everything together! Finally, the Dobladas were a rock solid addition for a minimum price. Again, beyond the pure quality, this restaurant delivered high value. Guatemalan Kitchen is a clear recommend imo. I might even make a special trip to Phoenixville to dine again soon! read more

Prices are great and the food is unreal. Can't ask for more than that. I had guacamole to start and some sort of chicken entree as my main. Everything was incredible. The chicken fell off the bone, the molé adjacent sauce was incredible, and the hot sauce they provided (which appeared to be homemade) was maybe the best hot sauce I've ever had. One of the most enjoyable meals I've had in a long time. read more

I love this place. The food is consistently good. I love their pupusas and their grilled pork ribs are outstanding! A surprising treat is how great their fried chicken is! The sides, macaroni salad, rice, and black beans, that come with their meals are very good too. You get A LOT of food, there are always left overs. The prices are reasonable. My boyfriend and I moved from the area two years ago but whenever we are back visiting for a couple of days, we try to make sure to visit. It has never disappointed us! read more

Don't come here if you are hungry. It's been 20 minutes and my food haven't came out yet. I am the only customer at this moment and it's a little pass 2pm. I was ready to go after waiting for my plate for 25mins. I already have my jacket on and is about to tell the kitchen that I wanted it to go instead. Then suddenly, the guy went out with my food which is almost cold. Note that I ordered grilled meat. Food is not good. I got Costillas a la Parilla which is that almost cold grilled meat with bones, a scoop of cold rice and macaroni and a cup of bean sauce. I also had the Enrolladas. Both doesn't taste well. I uplifted the taste by dosing on the hot sauce. Overall, I don't recommend. And definitely not coming back. read more

This place has great food, large portions and reasonable prices! New location right on Bridge Street. Oddly enough it's Guatemalan Kitchen and a pizza joint. I came for the Guatemalan! The menu is extensive and there are so many options. ordered: -Parrallada grilled meat sampler with chicken, steak and sausage. Served with black beans and macaroni salad. -Sopa de mano de res or the cow's foot soup. Served with homemade corn tortillas and lime cilantro and onion. This delicacy was my favorite. -three ginormous chicharron papusas served with some salad. -Jamaica Hibiscus drink- a little sour and not too sweet -bag of elotitos or cornuts. Delicious snack Everything was freshly made and delicious. Love this place read more

An easy to miss spot: but you DON'T want to miss this. Not only is it delicious, the prices are extremely reasonable compared to some of the overpriced sports on this street. Not too busy during lunch on a Saturday, pretty quiet and homey. My friend and I were confused at first whether to be seated, but you walk to the back and order at the front first. Then, they'll bring things to your table. The menu is quite extensive and I'm incredibly impressed. I'd definitely like to come again to try more things. I found the three papusas filling, I almost did an order of tacos in addition and I'm glad I didn't, no way I would have finished. read more

Guatemalan Kitchen - Pork and Pineapple tacos: 3 for $7, papusas 3 for $7 - Steakhouses Near Me - Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

We got the parrillada ($13), which is a combo with steak, chicken, and spicy chorizo. This comes with rice, a black bean paste, green salad, and a couple of soft taco shells. We also got the grilled pork ribs ($11), which also comes with the same sides. I got it to go so not sure if there are more sauces if you dine in. There was only a hot sauce so I wish there were others. The food portions are generous and it is good value for what you get. It is located on a small street just off of the Downtown Phoenixville area. I would like to come back to try other things. read more

I had the beef soup only available on Mondays and it was delicious. Real authentic homemade soup with rice and tortillas for $12! Can't beat it! My wife had a variety of 3 Pupusa and they were all great and only $7! Great little small business - glad to support a minority small business particularly in today's times. read more

Delicious food, very authentic. Great price and a relaxed atmosphere with soccer playing on the TV.

Food is wonderful! I've been ordering from here consistently with my wife and we love the pupusas. Staff is friendly as well.

Quality food. I get the Al Pastor tacos and they are excellent everytime. The guacamole is also very good and they give you a large portion for a cheap price. read more

Solid place. Well executed Guatemalan cuisine- The kind of mayan riff on Mexican. The tacos (both pork and steak) and rice and beans were all outstanding. Very small eating area with three small tables of two. Well worth your time. Great meal for 2 for 25$. We will be back! read more

Great pork mouthfeel and flavor. Excellent corn tortillas. Not quite perfect execution in dish ingredient balance. I ordered the Pork (Adobado) tacos ($2.50 each.) The pork was very delicious: mostly fall apart, savoury, and well-seasoned with Central American spices. I found the tacos to be dominated by the flavor and texture of the (admittedly great) double corn tortillas. I wanted to give them five stars, but the tacos were too tortilla forward and did not allow the pork to shine. This is a case of two excellently executed ingredients slightly out of proportion. read more

Incredible good food and for a great value. I've thought about their food constantly ever since I had it. Just slow counter service sadly.

The Guatemalan kitchen (at their previous location) was a go-to spot. The food was fresh, authentic and always delicious. Was really excited to support them in their new location and went in for pickup. They now share space with X-Press pizza. The place is downright is not clean. Trash on the floor behind the counter and in the kitchen. The self serve ice cream is frosted over, a dirty scooper stuck in the half melted container. We ordered the chili nachos. What we got was stale chips with a smattering of beans, some cheese , sliced chicken all topped with... chunky pizza sauce. There was no mistaking it- could taste the basil. I miss old Guatemalan Kitchen and I hope they can return to their former glory. read more

If you've patronized their location on Main St. you'll be pleased to know the food quality and value is just as stellar at this expanded location on Bridge St. The mixed grill of steak, sausage, and chicken is my go-to. If you haven't visited yet, what are you waiting for? Can't wait to try their breakfast! read more

Guatemalan Kitchen - the entrance to the village restaurant - Steakhouses Near Me - Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

Pros: Come here for the food, not the decor. Chicken is perfectly fried, beef is perfectly grilled. Horcha drink is not overly sweet or cinnamon induced. Portion sizes and price are hard to beat. Cons: Street parking only. read more

The prices here are pretty good, and the workers were friendly. However, I'm used to Reading pupusas and these didn't stack up at all. The pollo was almost mixed with something mushy (other than cheese), and there was just no substantial flavor to the chicharrón. I'm sure I'll give their tacos another shot, but I'm not really in a rush, nor have super high expectations. read more

Small hole-in-the-wall place putting out good food. The pollo tacos and al pastor tacos are super delicious. Tortillas are fresh and handmade on premises which makes a big difference in flavor. Black beans are flavor packed. Wanna try the pollo fritto (fried chicken) but have not done so yet. read more

Delicious food! We loved the Guatemalan enchiladas, pupusas, and nachos. So different from Mexican style cooking. Very nice staff. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend. read more

Authentic, delicious and cheap. Got the sopes and plantains-- only $10 total and so much food. Very nice people as well. Found my new go-to. read more

Very good food. Had the fish tacos, and they were delicious. It'd be nice to have chips and salsa on the table, and it could probably be cleaner inside. Bear in mind, though, in terms of price point we're competing with McDonalds here. Again. Really, Really good food. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Only reason I took a star off is they are cash only, and that is a Yelp rule I set for myself. But they really deserve 5 stars, so please take this as a 5-star review! After baby, I'm back on my cucumber salad, steak, and treadmill diet, but I am allowed to cheat one day a week! Guatemalan Kitchen was our choice for non-diet lunch yesterday, and it was a ten-star choice for taste! Robert P. mentioned the great smells of this food, YES! That was the first thing to hit me! It smelled so good! Amy O. said these were the best ribs she had in her life, so I had to try them! OMFG, Amy, no joke! They're not brown-&-pink BBQ type ribs, they're white, sauceless, boneless (though they missed a little bone in mine, but I didn't care they were that good!), and covered in black char. This char is the "asada," or burnt part (not bark, char). The flavor was one of those enlightening experiences like after a deep meditation, or smoking something you shouldn't, because I finally came to the purest understanding of the word "asada." ASADA means this black gook on my meat, that is food crack, and I cannot stop thinking about it all day afterward, I want to go back and eat more now, now, now! I just want that black stuff on my tongue, so effing delishosaurus! Alton Brown can teach you the chemistry to make the blackened part so good, but all you need to know is the seasoning is phenomenal, and when it gets burnt crisp, it's even better! Like crack better. My husband got the Parrilladas (steak, sausage, chicken). Chicken was very flavorful, tender and moist, steak was thin but tender, and sausage was good not amazing. Chicken def stole the show on that one. Husband's also came with homemade tortillas. I wanted to try a bite of tortilla because so many had said they are homemade. I was bummed about the flavor on those, pretty bland. I prefer homemade to any alternative, but they could stand to amp up the flave on those. All two-figure dishes came with rice, macaroni salad (? is this Guatemalan?), and black beans, which was really like black bean soup. The sides are decent, filler foods. It is the meat that really drives you wild. And by two-figure, I mean $11, which was a swindle for this level of taste. Staff was friendly and helpful. Both times I called there was a little bit of a language barrier, and though I know Spanish, I am intimidated by the many and varied accents of South American countries, so I did not try it. We managed to communicate nonetheless. So have patience and your mouth will be rewarded (as Alton might say). No postres (desserts) which was disappointing, but there are other places nearby, to switch up your meal and explore, after your amazing Guatemalan food. read more

Kind of a hole in the wall, but can they do chicken! You get a decent amount of food for an order, too

You can't get more authentic then this little hole in the wall place. One table that seats six, where strangers make room for one another and strike up conversations, sometimes in English but often on Spanish, over generous servings of delicious, fresh plates of lovingly prepared Guatemalan delights. You can choose streak, pork chops, chorizo, ribs, and chicken; even a Guatemalan meatloaf. All are paired with excellent versions of black or red beans, yellow rice and hand made tortillas. This is well worth a visit (and many return visits). read more

I don't what people are thinking. Giving 4 stars for a five star place...rules? Rules go out the window when the is this authentic. Grab $10 and goooooo. You watch them make the tortillas on the grill with a cast iron press. Watch it ride. The tacos are simply out of the country, maybe world. Quesadillas. Mmmm. The rice. Simple, amazing. I moved out of Phoenixville a year ago, I come back for this place. The only down side, is the smell is sooooo good that drive home is painful. Try it. Give them a smile, and a tip, since you will cash on you, because they deserve every penny. It's almost like robbery their prices are so reasonable, their food unbelievably crafted by hand, with care, and yes, a smile. read more

Best tacos anywhere around. We had fish, chicken and pork tacos and they're really amazing! Hot, juicy, flavorful and so fresh. We went in to get takeout and it did take a little while, I'll call ahead next time, but so worth the wait. The fish taco was firm, fresh white fish that had been delicately spiced, topped with yummy salsa and fresh cheese. I tried a chicken taco and it was just as good, little bit sweet with a nice kick. I will definitely go back. And soon. read more

Food is so authentic, made with care and definitely a family run feel. Sopes are easy to recommend and so are the tacos (both come with 3 per order). Fresh herbs top seasoned meats on homemade tasting corn shells. Seating is tight but feel is intimate... great for a date night or taking yourself out! Always greeted with warm smile and food is always fresh and made to order... definitely a gem and welcome addition to Phoenixville! [Cash only] read more

This place is amazing!!! The lady cooks everything herself and it's home cooked. We eat here all the time. Friendly and cheap !!! Try the pork ribs! read more

What a gem! This place couldn't get more authentic. Stopped in for some tacos, and can't wait to go back and try something different. The flavors were on point. Be forewarned, the place is tiny! If you're planning on eating there, there are only a couple tables so you may have to wait. Probably best for takeout. read more

BEST TACOS EVEERRRR!!! Ok, this just might be because we drove over an hour to see Halloween III at the Colonial Theater (5 stars) and we were starving but the tacos here are some of the best tacos I've had on the east coast. I ordered the chicken tacos for a quick bite before the movie and for $7 the three tacos had plenty of meat and so damn tinder with maybe a lack of spice being the only slight negative. The place is super tiny with a couple of two person "tables" but it's def just a to go kind of place with a full view of the kitchen right behind the counter. After ordering we waited outside for about 15 minutes and ate on a bench and honestly we though about going back for more to gorge ourselves. I will make sure to arrive in town earlier before a movie to swing by here beforehand. This is also a CASH ONLY joint. read more

Unfortunately the worst pizza I've ever had. Threw up when I got home after eating a slice
