    Guacamole de la Casa
    Madison D.

    Lovedddd this place. Originally was gonna go to some "trendy" place around the corner but their service was horrible and the wait was 50 minutes!! Mama Puebla was a 4 minute walk around the corner and this place really turned our afternoon around. Service was great, our waiter was very attentive even thought he was the only one on the floor. Food came out at a reasonable time and was so fresh. Drinks were great.The place was clean and the aesthetic was beautiful. Seemed very authentic to me. Would 100% visit again.

    From the staff to the music we enjoyed everything. Mama Puebla serves authentic flavorful delicious Mexican food and cocktails. Everything is made in house from the sauce to the buffalo sauce to the meats. It is made to order by the wait isn't that bad. We had Chips and Salsa (5/5) Flautitas (4/5) Molcajete Mama Puebla (marinated churrasco, shrimp, chicken breast, Mexican sausage, grilled green onions, jalapeños, and avocado) 4.5/5) Hibiscus Margarita 5/5 Spicy Passionfruit Margarita 5/5 Pechuga de Pollo de Mexicana (chicken breast sautéed with onions, jalapeños, and tomatoes) (4/5) it's spicy Coconut Mojito (4/5) Tamarind Margarita (3.75/5) Mezcal shots (5/5) Had an amazing time at @mamapueblanyc! Fresh chips and salsa were so good we had to order it twice! The Buffalo wings had the perfect balance of spicy and sweet. Loved the juicy, thinly sliced chicken entree and the huge Molcajete--perfect for sharing. The rice and beans were bursting with flavor, we almost went for seconds! They even have hookah after 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays and karaoke! Such a cozy spot with reasonable prices and big portions. Definitely coming back!

    Mama Pueblas really does know how to make tasty food. We have been ordering them for as long as they have been open. I usually stick to my favorites and here's my last take out order: Carnitas Tacos Chorizo Tacos Steak Quesadilla Tostones BIRRIA TORTA The birria torta was EVERYTHING and I suggest that everyone who enjoys birria tacos gives this a try. It comes with the deep rich consommé for dipping. It's basically like a Mexican style French dip and it did not disappoint! I really do enjoy most of their tacos. My rotational order is carnitas, chorizo, al pastor, fish and birria. My favorite quesadillas are the steak and shrimp ones! I will always recommend them. The best part is that the service is excellent. Family owned and small staff makes it feel homey and inviting!

    Love this local Mexican spot! The food tastes homemade, fresh, and comforting--like eating at a family gathering. Warm service and cozy vibe. PS best Al Pastor flavor in the area.

    Rice and Beans. Speaks for it self.

    We've ordered Mama Puebla a couple of times prior to Covid. The food was pretty good then and ordering recently deemed the food pretty good now. Our Order: Fish Tacos Flautas Beef Nachos Chicken Fajitas with all the fixins and accompanied with multiple Sauces: Green being the best. Surprisingly, the food arrived much faster than quoted. Once all the meals were unpacked, the 'My Phone Eats First' rule was way out the window, hence not many pics. Thanks hungry food attackers! Ordering Mexican is never a forethought but based off of this recent order it will be now.

    Disappointed in the small amount in a $5 side order of plantains

    Always order here but recently had a side order of sweet plantains delivered and for the cost of $5.00, this was what I received. Disappointed

    Perfect taste to a spicy Passion Fruit Margarita!

    Perfect taste to a spicy Passion Fruit Margarita! Food is great authentic Puebla taste.

    Added item in Grubhub with fees, taxes and tip

    Customers beware! I don't even know why I even bother coming here but against my better judgement I went there anyway. Let me start off by saying that the servers here always have an attitude and act like they are doing you a favor by serving you to begin with. I came here once and because the aforementioned statement I stopped coming. Ok so I was craving chuletas Fritas (fried pork chops) which comes with rice, black beans and tortillas. Now on their paper/plastic menu the price for this dish is 16 dollars. But when the cashier gives me my total, it's 20 dollars! I'm thinking to myself "wait a minute, that's a 4 dollar difference". So I asked the lady, isn't 16 dollars? And she responds that the prices went up and it was 20 dollars with taxes. I'm no math wiz but there's no way you can charge 4 dollars taxes on a 16 dollars order. As you can see in the photos provided, $1.51 is the taxes. So either the prices went up and it is 20 dollars with taxes or she thought she found herself a sucker to overcharge. So I said, oh don't worry Ms just cancel my order and I walked out of there. Now, I've never had a problem paying for anything no matter how cheap or expensive it is but I honestly felt like there was something not right. So I look online, specially in Grubhub which we all know prices are usually a couple of dollars more. So low and behold, 16 dollars+ 1 dollar delivery + 2.78 (15% tip-which I usually give 5+ cuz the guys work hard and I want my food fairly quick lol). Which means it's 21.29 total! That's not cool! Why would you try to rip your customers like that!? I would recommend if you are in a mood for Mexican, go to Taqueria Lupita. Small little mom and pop shop restaurant. They might not have your dinner size dishes that come with rice and beans but EVERYTHING else that Mama Pueblas has, they have. And the people there are much nicer and welcoming. And if you still want your "Spanish food" fix, for the same scamming prices of Mama Pueblas, go to made in Puerto Rico, delicious puertorrican food and they give you a lot of it. Don't recommend this place at all. Always go with your gut instinct.

    Red sauce chicken enchiladas.
    Lisa S.

    Ordered red sauce chicken enchiladas and this is what I got. The sauce was oily and barely tasted like anything. The tortillas broke up making it a mess. The rice and black beans was tolerable. Never again.

    I came here for dinner, and this was one of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to! Being…read morefrom California, I definitely missed the Mexican food scene, so I wanted to try Taqueria Tlaxcalli to taste a bite of home. When we entered, we were greeted with kind smiles from the ladies and they welcomed us to sit at any free table. Inside has lots of decor with ample seating. We sat and a server grabbed us menus. We got a carnitas burrito, grilled cactus side, horchata, and strawberry limeade (per her recommendation). Everything came so fast, and they even split the burrito for us! Oh my god, everything was so good. This has to be one of the BEST burritos I have ever had, comparable to the ones in San Diego. I love carnitas, and they do it so well here. It was tender, flavorful, just the perfect amount of sauce and seasoning! And the horchata was the best I have ever had too! The strawberry limeade was refreshing, and the grilled cactus was good! It was my first time trying it and it reminded me of aloe vera/okra texture. I had such a great time, such a great experience, I will definitely be back!

    Yesterday's brunch: Chilaquiles verdes with Cecina (salty beef), a side of black beans with queso…read morefresco, and a Limeade with mint from @taqueriatlaxcallibx Everything was seasoned perfectly, and the salsa verde had just the right kick to it. The portion size was excellent, though I would have preferred a little less onions in the dish, as they overpowered the overall taste of the chilaquiles just a little bit. The black beans were also well seasoned and the queso fresco topping was the perfect finishing touch for the side dish. The Limeade was refreshing and flavorful, and a great pairing for the whole meal. I ordered delivery from Uber Eats, and the total with tax and tip after discounts (I'm an Uber One member) was $45.12, but if you're in the Parkchester area definitely check out Taqueria Tlaxcalli for delicious, authentic Mexican food #notsponsored
