The food here excels at being very savory with an authentic homemade taste. The tortillas are Guatamalan style, made by hand with corn. Our server was great and we didn't have to wait long for our food. I liked all the traditional juices on the menu. The dining room is very comfortable and the bathrooms are nice. Highly recommended.

This place was phenomenal! A true cultural gem located in Lewistown, Pennsylvania. It is hard to…read morefind such bold and authentic flavors in this area. I was greeted by warm and welcoming customer service and seated promptly. The ambiance is very cool, imagine diner style. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were beyond delicious! From the tasty broth filled with flavor, to the authentic and delicious salsa with a nice spice kick! I ordered four tacos total! I ate every single taco down to the last bite too! This place was absolutely phenomenal! From the customer service, to the flavors, and so much more! I will be stopping by again in the future.

I am so glad this is my first review for 2025. We are so lucky to have this gem in Lewistown. I…read morewill openly admit, I am a taco snob from the west who grew up with Latina girlfriends and homemade tamales either given or purchased in a Walmart parking lot from a kind auntie. IYKYK. There are only 4 taco places I would eat In Pennsylvania period and one them was featured on Netflix. This made it to top 3. In a place where diversity and authentic flavors are unfamiliar and unknown, we finally have Don Julio for the world to see here! I knew when I tasted that Horchata, we were in business along with the Masa flour bags of course. We also get carnitas as a test everywhere and do you see that slight crisp on that soft carnitas (aka it's pulled pork for those unfamiliar but better)?! You had me there because that's the only way to eat carnitas. We are slowly going through the menu but I recommend this place for wonderful service and real Mexican food (no not the 1000 chains in Harrisburg or state college). Stop by on your way to a Penn state game or visiting state college to beat the crowds and get real food! Yes you have Taco Bell and your typical fast casual chipotle when you're in a pinch. But support local and they do quick take out as well! Now enough compliments here are the stats 20/10 - the food take out or not has wonderful flavor and is authentic. Come here if you want real Mexican food. It's all made from scratch and is reasonably priced for the amount of food and meat you get per bite. Price and value per bite friends in this economy? Wowza. They start you out with chips and salsa and salsa tastes way better than what you usually get in other places but resist the urge to fill up on chips if you can.. What to do: Carnitas - obviously? Not spicy Birria tacos is basically beef that's been braised in that little soup they give with tons of flavor that then make baby quesadillas with. Not spicy - that's what the hot sauce is for. Chorizo tacos - think spiced ground pork that has real flavor. It can be considered spicy to some palettes. I would ask for more hot sauce or to try different sauces. Ps I will add more comments and pictures as we go through their menu. 10/10 - service, we had a very attentive waitress and my only comment is we need to find a better way to ease people who have never tried real Mexican food. I can see locals feeling overwhelmed and struggling to make choices since their basis of comparison are the two places above sadly. Ambiance is like family restaurant vibes. You're here to eat and talk! This is not a dimly lit not enough to eat vibe. You'll leave full and joyous. Things you may struggle but don't hold it against them: parking. The parking is shared with the local beer store so it can get tight. Just park at Lowe's if you're desperate. Or take out? No alcohol for those who care or need. If they get their liquor or beer and wine license, I can see even more people coming! Winning combo. They take card and cash. And for those local - it's in the same place as the sticky bun diner. And you will need to come on in on the side. Lastly if they offer Italian don't be phased and try it. The owner cooked Italian food for the longest time in the area so it'll be fire.

We got the around the world nachos, which were awesome. Big portion. The bbq chicken tacos, Asian 5 spice beef tacos, and the pork tacos are a must try.

Each taco with either flour or corn tortilla will cost you about $6. The ambiance is nothing to rave about. But all you need is a table to enjoy this fantastic food. Must try.

The space is decorated in a modern, bright, and inviting style that makes you feel welcome right away. The staff was friendly and attentive, and we loved the table-side guacamole--made fresh right in front of us and absolutely delicious. What really stood out for me was the menu. They had more than a couple vegan options, which automatically earns them an extra star in my book. It's not always easy to find that in smaller towns, so I was pleasantly surprised. I don't know when I'll be passing through Altoona again, but if I do, Plaza Azteca will definitely be a stop for me.

At this price point, in basically an ally food stand, these guys had every incentive to throw any ole taco together and would have probably still been successful. But nope, Yallah Taco cuts no corners. I had both the fried chicken and the fish tacos. Both tacos were absolutely overloaded with toppings. Sure fried chicken can do no wrong, but the fish taco is pure excellence. The combination of tangy chipotle sour cream and sweet coleslaw is nothing short of genius. I've easily paid 2.5x more for much less impressive tacos all over this country. Yallah is the very definition of a hidden gem. Did I forget to mention warm tortilla chips and pipping hot queso?
