"Taqueria Morales is like the Superman of South Philly Mexican restaurants. The quaint corner spot quietly serves great tortas and tacos, but when it rips open its shirt and tosses its glasses, it makes juicy, over-stuffed birria tacos in a crispy tortilla cape. The consomme is also noticeably thicker and richer than most others on this list. These tacos don’t come with cheese, but you can (and should) add it on for the ultimate queso-pulling experience." - alison kessler
