Avocado Salsa Verde & Chips

Dollar taco night was great at loco pez! I was able to get a seat at the bar easily and the bartender was excellent. The food came out quickly and everything was delicious. There was also a good amount of seating outdoors in addition to the space inside. Everything tasted great and the deal was amazing!

Dollar taco night is the GOAT. The tacos were a little dry, but honestly everything else made up for it and the experience was great overall. Our waitress, Hannah M., was superb- super friendly and very attentive despite how busy it was. The place definitely gets packed, but the staff handled it really well and service didn't slip. The vibes were great, I loved the interior, and the margaritas were delicious, though there was a lot of ice, so we probably got about four pours out of one pitcher (idk how worth it) Still, a fun night all around, and next time we're coming back to conquer the 20-taco challenge

Quesabirria Tacos

Great happy hour! Usually the happy hour versions of apps are quite small but these 6 dollar happy hour nachos were great and filling! Then we had the quesabirria tacos with GREAT flavor and the chicken tinga taco and carne asada taco. Will def go back to try one of their burritos, our waitress was also super friendly and attentive

You can't go wrong with a quick tacos + margarita combo at any loco per location. The south Philly location is my personal fave, staff are always nice, and the vibe is always welcoming.

This place is so big. It has 2 bars (one on the top floor and the other downstairs). The place was packed for dollar tacos. We ended up getting all the tacos they had. The bar we sat at had a bucket of sauces so it was nice to have options from Tabasco to green cilantro sauces. The best tacos were the pez (it was basically a fried Mahi Mahi with tomatoes and some sour cream) and the gabacho taco which was a hard shell taco with ground beef, lettuce, cheese. The Al pastor and chorizo/potatoes were really good tacos as well. For dessert, we had the tres leches. I really liked how it was fluffy and the milky sauce involved with this dish. I also liked how it was loaded with pineapples.

Tacos and tequila really are the perfect pair, and this spot really delivered! We were in the area and needed a fix so we stopped here. My friend had been to a different location but it was both our first time to this one. The margaritas ($8, and not happy hour?!) were delicious. I ordered the mushroom, carne asada and al pastor tacos. I will definitely be back here the next time I do a Philly visit!

I was walking and found this place and decided to stop in. I sat outside and the view and the weather was great. The service was okay with a little wait before the waitress came. I chose to have a couple shrimp tacos and added a side of beans and rice. The sides portions were big and I could not eat them all. I liked the beans but the rice was just okay. The food I had was mediocre lacking seasoning and did not compare to my favorite local Mexican restaurant. I had a strawberry margarita and that was okay.

I went to Loco Pez for Dollar Taco Night. The staff were so nice and patient. We had a large party, so they set up us in a half circular booth and brought over an extra table and chairs. We got through early and put in our order quickly, so the tacos also came out quickly; however, even when we placed additional orders after, the tacos didn't take unreasonably long to come out. The table had several different salsas/hot sauces. I tried all of the non-vegetarian tacos and especially enjoyed the camarones and al pastor. Can't wait to eat here again!

My 1st time at Loco Pez. When I first walked in I thought the place was really small! But then I was asked if I wanted to be seated upstairs. The upstairs section had another bar and TV's ( I was able to watch a baseball game). I ordered the house margarita ( no complaints), nachos ( they were okay), chicken taco ( pretty good). Our waitress was attentive. They have outside seating that I am Sure is popular during the spring/summer months.

Tacos

You can't get a better deal than dolly taco night!! There was a long wait when we got there (5:40pm), but bar seating was first come first serve so we did that. The food came out quickly after ordering. On to the food: I felt that most of the tacos were very flavorful. My favorite was the Al Pastor because the slight sweetness from the pineapple on top complemented the saltiness of the meat perfectly. The carne asada and carnitas teetered on the edge of being dry, but they still had flavor infused into the meat. The pollo tinga was a nice surprise for me - I thought this was juicy and seasoned well. Camerones and pez were both fried to perfection and not heavy at all (I ordered without the crema though). There were variable sizes of pez, so some tacos had little meat while others had more. I'd personally get the Camerones over pez. The chorizo and potato was forgettable, nothing to write home about. Unfortunately, the veggie options were slacking in the flavor department compared to the meats. Soy chorizo tasted exactly like the soy chorizo from Trader Joe's; seitan adobo had nice texture; mushroom had no flavor and was mushy.

ITS A MUST to come and try their dollar taco nights!!!! I believe they post on their Instagram once a week on a random week day, the day that they're doing dollar tacos (on the day of). So you won't get to know which day they're doing $1 tacos, but if you're able to secure a spot at the restaurant for this special, please do!!! Went with some family a couple days ago and it was so wonderful and delicious. Our server was very kind and attentive and we did tip her a bit extra just because we could see her running around during this rush hour, it was a bit hectic on the restaurant's side of things, so I do appreciate everything they do during these crazy times!! We were seated outside and the graduate hospital location is very nice and in a nice neighborhood with nice vibes. Definitely want to try out the other locations especially for another dollar taco night. 10/10 recommend!

Dollar tacos (clockwise starting at 11 o'clock: shrimp, fish, chorizo 2x, carne asada, al pastor, pollo tinga)

Pretty good taco spot in Graduate Hospital. I came here for dollar tacos night, which is on one weekday per week after 5 PM (revealed on their Instagram page). I got the fried shrimp, fried fish, chorizo, carne asada, and al pastor. The fried fish and fried shrimp have a nice crunchy texture with white sauce, and the al pastor is super flavorful. The other tacos (chorizo, pollo tinga, carne asada) are pretty average in terms of flavor. Each table has plenty of diverse salsas to choose from. Quick and friendly service. Seating for groups up to four people can take up to an hour on dollar taco night (highly recommend showing up 5pm sharp). Lots of seating on the ground and second floors.

Ordered a meat burrito. I got a $12 burrito full of beans. It's sad they don't fulfill what they promise.

This might be my favorite bar in Philly yet! It's so quaint, sophisticated but not pretentious…read more Casual attire (we showed up after a tennis match and didn't get one side eye!Other patrons also wore cute/ smart casual fits!) The bartenders were so nice, speedy, and knowledgeable! They patiently explained to us the differences among some drinks and provided great recs based on our preferences! The customers/ patrons that are drawn to Grace and Proper are what make this place shine! We had a full dating intervention with strangers (we asked them for advice!) and it was so fun! This is the kind of place that makes you believe in humanity and whimsical connections again! The lighting indoors can be VERY dim as we were there around sunset. I think a few dim bulbs in the corner would still carry the vibe but make it less dark. We all had different kinds of cocktails and love the presentation and creative recipes! Will revisit more often!

Our favorite spot in Philly!…read more My husband claims that Claude AI recommended this place. We absolutely loved it! The entrance is so charming. With potted flowers all over the restaurant. Smattering of patio tables on both Eighth Street and Carpenter. When I saw it, I said yes before even looking at the menu. We ordered drinks at the bar and took them outside. It's very chic but also casual. There were mostly pairs or trios - no families. Not th. We saw people ordering a little bit of everything. Honestly, the menu looked great! The kale Caesar salad, the piri piri buffalo chicken dip, bacon wrapped plums, etc. The drinks were the best we had on our Philly trip! The Spanish Monk which had gin, lemon juice, frothed egg white and smoked paprika. I had the GGG which they carried over from their old menu. Can't remember what was in it but she said it was similar to Bee's Knees which is one of my favorite! There's self service still water and sparkling water in the back of the restaurant. Perfectly chilled. Perfectly bubbled! Such a lovely spot!

We celebrated my daughter's 21st birthday at F1 Arcade with a group of nine, and overall everyone…read morehad a great time. The biggest disappointment was the customer service before the event. I sent an email with questions about our reservation and never received a response. The online booking portal doesn't provide much detail, and while the website has a "Call" option, it wasn't very useful. I received multiple automated reminder emails stressing that we needed to arrive 15 minutes early because race times wouldn't be extended for late arrivals, which is completely understandable. I just wish there had been the same level of attention when it came to responding to customer questions. Once we arrived, the experience was much better. They gave our group a private seating area, which was a nice surprise. Our server was friendly, checked on us periodically, and never pressured us to order food. We chose to have drinks only, and it was nice to relax before and after racing. The simulators were a lot of fun, and everyone in our group enjoyed the experience. The only thing to know is that the races move quickly--you only have about two minutes between sessions to switch drivers, so there's not much time to explore the venue or step away without paying attention to when you're up next. Overall, it was a fun and unique way to celebrate a birthday. We'd definitely come back, although probably as a special once-a-year outing because of the cost. If F1 Arcade improved its communication before events, this easily could have been a five-star experience.

Fun experience, but definitely on the pricey side for the amount of actual racing you get…read more F1 Arcade is a pretty cool F1 racing simulation where you get to drive an F1-style race car on various real F1 tracks. The simulators do a good job of making you feel like you're actually racing--the seat moves and rumbles as you go around the track, accelerate, brake, and presumably make questionable racing decisions. One warning: if you get motion sickness easily, this might not be the activity for you. Between the moving seat and the racing visuals, your brain may start wondering why your body is sitting still while your car is doing 200 mph. The place itself is huge, with 40+ simulators. We went on a Saturday afternoon and were surprised by how empty it was. They also have a bar and serve food, but we were there strictly for the racing. We had a party of 4, so we did the team racing option and were given two simulators. Each of us got three races, and the system paired us up differently for each race, so everyone got a chance to race against everyone else. That part was actually pretty fun and made it feel more competitive. The downside is that the races are REALLY short--about 3 minutes each. So for roughly $30 per person, we each got only about 10 minutes of actual racing time across the three races. Once you factor in getting everyone set up and waiting between races, our entire visit was under an hour. The staff was friendly and did a good job explaining how the simulators work and how to check when your next race was starting, so the whole process was pretty easy. Overall, this was a fun experience, especially if you're an F1 fan or enjoy racing games. The simulators are definitely more immersive than playing a racing game at home. That said, the price is hard to overlook considering how little actual driving time you get. We had a good time, but at around $30 per person for about 10 minutes of racing, this is probably a "do it once for the experience" kind of activity rather than something we'd do regularly.
