Los Camaradas - Cool tier - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Love this place BUT Nothing but red wine? No sangria? Please get your ordering in order or let us know you need the business because times are tough! You're a neighborhood hotspot and people WILL rally!! read more

Very disappointing experience overall. The waitress was extremely rude, and dismissive. She did not answer simple questions about available beverages, but rather instructed us (in an irritated manner) to "look at the board." Our group was respectful and quiet, honestly we left because she was incredibly rude! The food is fine and the atmosphere good, but we will not return! read more

If you're looking for the kind of happy hour that makes you check the bill twice (because there's no way it's that cheap)... this is it. Their prices are unreal, the vibes are chill, and the food? Chef's kiss. The nachos are loaded and perfect for sharing (or not sharing, no judgment), and the shrimp tacos are so good they deserve their own fan club. Pair it with a margarita or a cold beer and you've got yourself the happiest of hours. Honestly, it's the kind of spot that turns a casual drink into a whole night out. read more

We love it here. We get the same thing pretty much every time: nachos (the best!!) and chicken fajitas. The burritos are also a generous size and are tasty. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable, servers are very friendly. I wouldn't go to Los Camaradas if you are looking for a world class experience; they're perpetually under-staffed so things take time. But vibes are immaculate, food is good and affordably priced, and the people (staff and customers) are always pleasant. Plus there's always leftovers!! read more

Superb food!! Got take out and held up well during our walk back! Cute little neighborhood place read more

I got the Carnita Burrito and it was very good. Happy hour on the weekend was a great surprise too, so we got margaritas! We also got the nachos to share and they were some of the best we've had in the city. read more

Food not good! Service ok ... asked for Mahi tacos .. got tilapia! Not cool won't be back.

This was my first food stop in philly, I was starving after my flight and this place was walking distance from where I was staying. We ordered the house margaritas, they were good but not the best I'd ever had. Our server seemed to be new and didn't have much knowledge of the menu, such as she wasn't sure what salsas came in the salsa trio. The guac was yummy, the salsas (pico, salsa verde, & mango) were, again, good but not the best I ever had. I wanted to order the tequila lime shrimp tacos, but they were out of shrimp. I settled for the carnitas tacos. You get 3 tacos, but I was stuffed after 2. The tacos were a bit plain and could have used a little more pops of flavor. read more

This has now become tied with my favorite nacho in the city! It was perfectly loaded with cheese, short rib, crema, beans, tomatoes, etc. we were so full after the nachos that we had to take the carnitas burrito to-go! It was well worth it. read more

Terrific corner restaurant for solid Mexican food. On a cool, summer evening, we sat outside for dinner after a long day and appreciated the view of the Julian Abele Park across the street and people watching while enjoying Guacamole Tradicional (house-made tortilla chips were perfectly crisp and seasoned), Nachos (queso mixto, black bean, tomato, crema, pickled jalapeño, pickled red onion) with chorizo--adored the pickled elements, and Short Rib Enchiladas (mole poblano, crema, toasted sesame seeds)--mole had a good depth of flavor. Will definitely be back for more! read more

Small little spot but great menu and selection of beers. We got the nachos which were piled high but didn't get soggy. Chicken was tender and toppings were plentiful. We also got the street corn which I could have ordered again and again. Great flavor! read more

Finally made it over to Los Camaradas. The food is great, the staff is very friendly, and the place has a great local restaurant feel located right in the middle of a residential area of grad hospital. We ordered the Pollo Enchiladas and the Chicken Tinga Burrito. Both were plentiful in size and flavorful in taste. The place was packed (inside and outside) for a Tuesday, so I think others in the area feel the same positive vibes for this establishment. I really liked the decor as well. Lots of "day of the dead" type artwork in and around the bar area. We will certainly be back, the next time the Mexican food urge hits us. read more

It's a nice day so I decided to take a walk and stumbled upon Los Camaradas. We ordered from the happy hour menu! Our waiter was super friendly and attentive. Didn't come over to check on us too much but we never had to look for him either. The house margarita was perfect! All of the happy hour tapas that we had were delicious! There are a few seats outside and the inside is small but can be a Great time for a group of friends to visit for happy hour or later at night! read more

This place has remained a staple in my Graduate Hospital rotation. When they say they have the best nachos in Philly -- believe it. Their margaritas always hit on a hot summer day, their tacos are solid, and their maduros are a solid sweet treat. 10/10 would recommend -- bring a friend and your family! read more

Came here on a Sunday night with two of my friends. Surprisingly, this place was pretty busy for a Sunday night! Margaritas are delicious, although not too strong. Ordered 2 and barely felt a buzz. My friend ordered a dragonfruit (or passion fruit??) marg and the flavoring was amazing! Each taco order comes with 3 tacos, which was great because my friends and I ( a party of 3 ) were able to eat 3 different tacos! We ordered chicken, chorizo, and Baja fish. All the tacos were large and filling! The chorizo taco definitely has a kick to it, and the fish in the fish tacos are definitely a decent size. This place is pretty good in terms of the food portions, the service, and the all-around ambiance. It has a chill, fun, bar vibe. Definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

I came here for a second time yesterday evening in the setting of introducing one of my favorite colleagues to what is one of my favorite nacho places in the city. It's a slight trek from my location near city hall (don't stalk me) otherwise we would frequent this place much more often. I see that Michelle has been here 12 times, damn girl! Anyways, around happy hour time on a Thursday evening, this place had plenty of seating available. I elected to sit outside because I was still experiencing a chill from the car's AC but immediately regretted it because it was hot and muggy. Oh well. I'm pretty sure everyone else in my party secretly wanted to sit inside and was possibly seething about my choice. Service was really good, the server came over promptly and revisited multiple times, we never had to wait for anything. The happy hour menu was pretty good however we were never EVER planning on getting a smaller portion of nachos under any condition. We did, however, take advantage of the margarita pitcher deal and ordered ourselves 2 of those bad boys. As mentioned, we ordered the nachos. We also went a little wild and COB and I split the vegetable enchiladas, our dining companion ordered pork-something-or-other enchiladas, and THEN we got the corn stuff as well as plantains. The nachos as usual were amazing. Chips are crisp, good chip to topping ratio, and plenty of this delicious white cheese and white sauce that will remain a mystery to the white broad that I am. I ate them like an animal. Our enchilada was also really tasty. The veggies were good and that sauce they pour all over that stuff, mmmm. The corn and plantains were delicious as well, ESPECIALLY the corn. Plantains also had a mysterious white sauce drizzled on top. I am partial to mystery white sauces as it turns out. Anyways this will remain to be one of my faves in Philly for Mexican. No wonder Michelle's been here 12 times. read more

Stopped by for a snack yesterday around 4:30pm to get us through to a 7:30pm dinner elsewhere. We sat outdoors since it was still sunny despite the bit of chill in the air. Apparently they do happy hour even on the weekends so shortly after we got there, a few other parties of 2 joined us outside. We ordered the nachos and the happy hour mac n cheese with chorizo. The server (Xavier) asked if we wanted the happy hour nachos or the full size -- HH nachos weren't on the menu but they are a thing! We went with the smaller size. I thought it was nice that he asked considering it probably made the check smaller. My husband ordered a classic margarita and I asked if they could make a non-alcoholic one -- Xavier offered a limeade and I said I'd try it. My husband's margarita arrived first but not my drink. It didn't come until I asked when our food was dropped off -- I think he forgot. Woops. It was tasty and perfect to have with the nachos and it didn't end up on our bill in the end, so no real harm done. The nachos were delicious!! They were loaded with veggies and the jalapenos may have been pickled or something because they weren't super spicy (which was perfect for us). The chorizo mac was more like a hamburger helper -- I am a huge mac n cheese fan and in order to call that dish mac, I'd suggest removing half the meat and amping up the cheese to make it creamier. It wasn't bad, just wasn't "mac" to me. I probably wouldn't order it again unless I knew it had changed. Overall, a solid spot and love that they do happy hour on the weekends! We will definitely come back to try more of the menu. read more

Tried Los Camaradas last week for the first time. I was unsure if they took reservations, so I called to ask. My experience on the phone was a bit... strange. I was told they were first come, first serve and decided to ask if there was a wait now. I was told there was not one yet, but that they hoped there would be one soon. As someone with the intention of walking over if there was not a wait, this threw me off a bit. Regardless, I made my way over with 3 friends. We were able to snag the last available table outside. The service was overall a bit slow, but our server was kind and appeared to be handling all of the tables outside so this was not a huge issue for us. After waiting a few minutes we were greeted and received a small paper with a QR code to the regular menu on one side, and a beer list on the other. Our waiter also mentioned that they had three types of margaritas that evening - house, spicy, or frozen strawberry. We ordered a few items to share - nachos with chicken and the guacamole. The guac portion was HUGE. There were not nearly enough chips to consume all of the guac. We did ask for more chips and we were told that would not be a problem, but sadly the chips never came. Our nachos came next, so we were able to put the guac to use. The nachos were delicious, as advertised on the website. I ordered the frozen strawberry margarita and WOW, it was strong. I'm not complaining. It was worth every penny because two were enough for me! When it came time for our actual dinner, I was pretty full from the starters and drinks so I opted to share the carnitas tacos with a friend. YUM! I love good carnitas and these did NOT dissapoint. I will definitely be back again! read more

There were four of us--daughter, parents, and grandmother--ages 35 to 88. Each of us had a different margarita (regular, guava, and spicy jalapeño). Each one was so good! Parents shared the nachos with short ribs and sweet plantains; daughter had pulled pork tacos; grandma had fish tacos. Everything was delicious and everyone felt very comfortable no matter their age. Peter, our server, was welcoming and professional and knew the menu well--a real pleasure! The only reason for four rather than five stars is that the restaurant's website refers to their happy hour which it turns out does not exist. Otherwise, great drinks, food, and service. Will certainly return. read more

Los Camaradas - Nachos with short rib - Mexican Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

They brought out a nice little surprise for us - chips and salsa. Very good! The pork belly guacamole was good too but I wouldn't have ordered it if I knew free chips and salsa were en route. The tacos here are okay. We ordered the Baja fish, al pastor, and the pork belly. Baja fish tacos were my favorite, the pieces are fish were huge! Al pastor was very standard but served with two tortillas so it felt more authentic. The pork belly was pretty bad. The meat was covered in a sweet glaze that did not compliment the fish or the meal. The pork belly had a lot of fat on it which should have been heated/rendered. I would not recommend the pork belly tacos. Overall good experience less the pork belly tacos read more

Los Camaradas is one of the go to spots if you live in the grad hospital area. Staff is friendly, food is pretty consistently good, and the portions sizes are pretty large. I only ever get the short rib nachos, because why would I get anything else? For around $15, you get an absurd amount of nachos (definitely more than enough for 2) packed with beans, meat, cheese and other ingredients, and they are not stingy on the meat. Everything tastes good, and I've only ever had it to go so I'm sure it'll taste even better sitting there. It's a large quantity of great quality food at a reasonable price. What more could you ask for? Overall, definitely worth a try for the nachos if nothing else. read more

I'm so happy our favorite neighborhood cantina was able to give me a night off from cooking over the weekend. I'd been craving nachos so placing my order for those wasn't even a question. My husband ordered mahi mahi tacos and I ordered the steak tacos. We placed our pick up order through Caviar. Soon after, the restaurant called to let us know they were out of steak, so they ran through the other options and I went with chorizo tacos. Our food was ready pretty quickly and my husband ran over to pick everything up. Everything was absolutely delicious, as usual, and we even had leftovers for the following day. While he was there, my husband saw that they are also offering to-go quarts of their delish margarita mix, so we may have to grab some this week for make-at-home drinks. Wishing the very best for one of my favorite neighborhood businesses during this trying time. If you love nachos (and tacos, and guac, etc.), definitely give Los Camaradas a look for contact free delivery or pick up! read more

The food here is so good. It's absolutely delicious and I'm looking forward to coming back. I came here for happy hour with other yelpy friends and had a nice time. Los Camaradas is a medium sized restaurant. It seems to be a pretty popular neighborhood spot, cause it was a good amount of people there on a Monday. The happy hour menu provided a variety of options to choose from and we were able to share most of the items on the menu. I tried the pork belly tacos, papas fritas, chicken quesadilla and their delicious nachos. Those nachos was sooo good! I can't wait to come back to have another meeting with them! I liked that the tortilla was thick and crunchy oppose to typical soggy nachos. I kept eating and eating them! No wonder they won the award for the best nachos in Philly. Their margaritas are also good as well. I had the mango and guava. Overall Los Camaradas offers dinner and brunch. It's a great meetup place to chill on your solo or hang with wonderful friends! The food is vibrant, the atmosphere is great. The staff is friendly and attentive. So check out Los Camaradas and thank you Michelle C! read more

Not necessarily mindblowing food, but very solid and adequate for a quiet neighborhood spot. I love that sweet plantains are offered on the menu -- it isn't something I see too often at Mexican restaurants in this part of the world. Now I don't know if that's authentic or not, I just really love sweet plantains! Tacos and mains were flavorful across the board, though again, nothing super special. Here's a fair warning - the Jalapeño margarita is legitimately hot hot hot! It's yummy but you would have to nurse the drink and try to take lip-less sips the whole time read more

This restaurant located in Graduate Hospital is a small gem I found walking around the neighborhood. I finally decided to try their menu and was not disappointed. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Happy hour is from 4-6pm. We ordered a classic marg and a frozen one. The frozen was easier for to drink. The classic marg was a bit strong. The nachos were delicious. They were very generous with the chicken and other toppings. Elote was flavored real nicely. It was just a bit messy to eat. And we got Buffalo cauliflower that's not pictured. I thought the sauce was a bit overpowering and the blue cheese didn't really taste like anything. Overall, I am very satisfied and will come back again! read more

AHHHHHHH, I hate to be this person... but I'm docking a star because I found this place over a popular IG post that showed the Crab Benedict... and then came into the city and got an Uber to come here and eat said Crab Benedict... and then I happily ordered the Crab Benedict... and then my dreams were crushed because they were out of crab. On a Saturday. At 1:30. Atmosphere: Kinda on a beaten path in Philly, and a little out of your way if you're around to do touristy things. BUT that's exactly how I like my restaurants. The inside decor is super cool with sugar skulls and an old tavern feel. Service: Attentive, and was on her A-game refilling water! Food: YUM. YYYUUUMMMMM!!! I did order the crab benedict that they substituted with shrimp and although I was disappointed about the crab running out, this meal was FANTASTIC. Like wow. The biscuit really made the whole meal. Buttery, thick goodness. My husband had the huevos rancheros and he cleared his bowl! He said it had a kick and loved it. Also appreciated the complimentary chips & salsa. So, I hope to be back soon to try the dish WITH the crab. And then five stars is well deserved! read more

It's not too difficult to appease me when it comes to Mexican food. Okay, that's a lie, it takes a bit, but I think my summer dinner date to Los Camaradas did at least some of that. My boyfriend and I stopped by after work, conveniently catching the end of happy hour. He grabbed a drink or two and we ordered some pulled pork tacos. Despite them being happy hour sized and needing a dash of salt, they were actually pretty good. For the entree, I ordered Enchiladas Verdes and he got the Pescado a la Veracruzana. He had some minor complaints about the fish flavors, mostly the lack of it, but my enchiladas were okay. I feel like it's hard to mess up chicken and cheese in a tortilla smothered in sauce. Our dessert was this cute tiny chocolate mousse that was...a bit hard to be a mousse but it was still pretty good! read more

Greta Mexican spot tucked in filter square. The food was great and the outdoor dining near the park set a good atmosphere

The food is good but I did not appreciate my dining experience at all. The server had a pace of a sloth and forgetful -- I needed to ask for napkin, dishes, fork, boxes at least twice and it took forever. The worst thing was they had no silverware! Not that the plastic utensil are wasteful but it also diminish the eating experience. And their Fire Roast Brussels was burnt and horrendously bitter on the level that I wanted to throw up. Never again that I revisit this place. read more

Still a solid Mexican spot, all these years later. We've been ordering from them often for Saturday date nights in and everything hits the spot. Fav current order: two Los Camaradas salads with the addition of steak, a shortrib nacho to split, and two frozen peach margaritas. The salad is very filling with juicy bits of hearts of palm, crunchy tortilla strips, and an addicting garlic dressing. Plus, the steak is always seasoned so well. Nachos are, as always, MASSIVE - they really hook you up with toppings and days' worth of short rib (we usually box half for lunch the next day). Recently, we also tried the special birria tacos, which were deep fried, melty, cheesy goodness with a fantastic salsa and au jus. But the best part is washing all that down with their PERFECT, refreshing, not-too-sweet, wonderfully tart frozen margaritas. The peach was amazing, but recently we had the strawberry which was also great. Staff is always friendly on the phone and greets you with a smile at the takeout window. Will continue to order from here! read more

Honestly not worth it at all. Service was lousy and took 40 minutes for 2 apps to arrive at the table. The wings and chorizo mac and cheese both had little to no flavor. The wings were cold upon arrival to the table. A very underwhelming experience overall. It also took 15 minutes after ordering drinks to find out the kitchen/bar did not have any sangria today. Not a good experience at all. Maybe they are short staffed but still feel this place isn't great. read more

Our friends and I came here last night and loved everything we got! We got the mariscos enchiladas - SO. GOOD. I absolutely loved the red pepper sauce it's covered in - so rich and creamy! The nachos are literally the best nachos I've ever had; you will NOT be disappointed. We also got the elite guac, mahi mahi tacos and the short rib tacos - all of which were also really good! The nachos and marsicos enchiladas are really what blew me away though. Knocked off one star because we ordered a pitcher of the peach margarita and it was hands down the worst margarita I've ever had. We expressed we didn't like it to the waiter too and he saw we didn't drink more than a sip or two since all our glasses were full and he didn't do anything about it. Oh well ‍ read more

Went here twice recently and had two pretty different experiences. After being unable to get into Loco Pez on dollar taco night (twice) our group of 8 went here instead and it was nice to get in without any wait. The first night, our server was nice but went over an hour without serving our table, which wasn't great. Most of the tacos ordered were good but the Brussel sprouts were burnt and we weren't able to say anything because our server wasn't present. The second night our service was much better and all the food was good! Margaritas there are very tasty but a little pricey and the pitcher isn't much cheaper than individual glasses. read more

We wanted a place close to the Christian St Y and to nearby friends. Los Camardas was suggested... yes! On a hot, muggy night all you really want is a cool refreshing cocktail. The special blackberry margarita was exactly what the doctor ordered. Coupled with the short rib enchiladas. Perfect. The service was prompt for a busy Wednesday night, but nobody came back to check on us. I definitely could have gone for another margarita...alas it was not to be. Our food came and we devoured it. But I even had enough to take home for lunch. I'm dreaming about those margaritas right now... read more

Went in for an early dinner on a Saturday night and was so excited to realize they do happy hour on the weekends as well! Had a fantastic dragon fruit margarita which was their daily special. I ordered the chicken quesadilla which was one of the best quesadillas I've had. My husband ordered the Baja fish tacos which were also good. We shared the nachos as well which were on happy hour and they were very large for the price. Our waitress was also great and super friendly. Can't believe how good this place is, and so close to us.

Los Camaradas is a great neighborhood spot and has been a reliable go-to for years! But we are SO SAD the frozen margaritas have been taken off the menu. We inquired if they'd be returning for the season and it seems like the answer is no. Please bring them back! They are life changing! read more

I was invited to hang out with fellow Yelp Elite during happy hour. Boy am I glad not only did we have a good time together we all enjoyed the food. The Pork Belly Tacos are so awesome I can't explain you just have to stop in and try them for yourself. Along with the Papas Fritas which are THE BEST EVER!! Another highlight were the Cucumber Margaritas, yummy!! We dinned on several appetizers the fish tacos are another standout item. Truly you can't go wrong with anything. My fellow Yelpers raved about the nachos I didn't get to those but they looked enticing. This is a nice restaurant/bar to hang out with friends or meet new places ones. read more
