Guacamole de la Casa

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.

Buffalo Wings

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.

My favorite Mexican restaurant! It's a hidden gem! Definitely recommend this place to anybody looking for Authentic Mexican food!

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.

Definitely hit up Taqueria Tlaxcalli if you're in the Bronx. Not too many places serving up legit…read moregoat barbacoa! Known for their giant burritos, so I got a shrimp burrito and it was excellent and huge, I took half of it home. I also tried the fried fish taco with chipotle sauce, as well as the goat barbacoa taco. Both slapped. Very prompt, attentive friendly service and I fully expected it to be blasting spanish music but actually The Cranberries were playing when we walked in for lunch and it continued with a steady stream of 90s and 00s rock. Pleasantly surprised.

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

Que Rico! Tenia antojos y mi barriguita esta alegre lol…read more I usually go to Taqueria Lupita a couple of blocks from my house but they were closed so after doing my research I came across Tulcingo Cafe and I'm so happy I did! First, the food is absolutely delicious and they do not skimp on the food at all. Second, their guacamole is one of the best I've had. It had everything guacamole should have. Third, their chicken milanesa is way better than the one from Taqueria Lupita and it has more stuff in it than theirs. And last, the churros and champurrado combo? Coño Que rico! I've never had champurrado before but it's way better than just regular chocolate. I'm just surprised I actually ate all this food lol. I'm the type that eats a little and doesn't want to eat anything else. They were really fast with the delivery and their delivery guy was very professional, polite and sweet. Definitely my New Mexican food spot and highly recommend it to everyone.

This is our go-to place for takeout Mexican in Pelham Bay. I pretty much always get the chicken…read moreburrito because it's fantastic and huge! They prepare each dish fresh for you, so sometimes you have to stand around for a bit, but that's actually fun because then you get to look at all the unusual (well at least to this gringa) groceries on the shelves. The folks who run it are really nice. They don't all have a great command of English, but definitely enough to get your order right. I love patronizing this neighborhood gem!
