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.

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.

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?

There are only maybe a dozen tables here so while it was not busy when we arrived, each table was occupied by the time we left. It was very clean and warm. Music was not to loud which is a plus for a smaller dinning room. The complimentary chips and salsa were delicious. Salsa was spot on. We had the nachos for the appetizer, and the smothered. Burrito and birra burrito for our meals. The nachos were delicious, and in my opinion were a stand out against nachos ordered elsewhere. They were just stacked high and condiments dumped on top. The cheese and sauces were layed out and almost all the chips had been covered. They were delicious and very fresh, nothing was globbed on, it was well dispersed. Only down side was the jalapeño on the dish- there were alot of seeds making some areas very very very hot. That might be a plus for others. The smothered burrito was much bigger then expected and well made. Sauces on top and garnice on the side put the flavors together well. The Birra burrito was one of the best I had. Meat was delicious without being a drippy mess, the cheese again was a good portion to complment the meat without over powering the dish. I will say the only down side to this place is it is small, so it was very busy by the time we left. We got out To go box, and then the waitress took nearly 20 minutes to get us the check. Again I understand they are small business and got busy but if you do eat here be understanding that it might take longer due to this.

There's really not much going on in Lewistown, and it took some time to get to Big Daddy's. When we walked in, people were seated at the bar, and we let the friendly bartender know we were ordering take out. We waited outside (there weren't any places to sit and not much shade in the hot sun). We ordered a Big Daddy's roast beef with chips and Sam's Stingy Chicken Sandwich with a side salad. It took a while for our food. The chicken sandwich was difficult to eat because the stingy honey sauce was a sticky mess. The side salad with poppy seed dressing was good. The roast beef sandwich, which was supposed to come with chips but didn't, came with fries instead. The fries were soggy, greasy, and flavorless. However, the cooper cheese on the roast beef was the star of the show. Quite sadly, we're still on the lookout for a decent place to get take out on the way home from PSU. Any suggestions?

The combinations are also a great price, especially if you can make it for lunch. Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't also mention the happy hour. You can get some great deals here and they have an excellent drink selection.
