The 10 Best Birria Tacos in Philly, Ranked

"Don’t let the grimacing cartoon Aztec king of the underworld fool you—South Philly’s El Mictlan is warm and friendly, even if the restaurant’s namesake is not. The Mexican dishes are more stunning than the casual BYOB environment might suggest, and in addition to the well-done guacamole and empanadas, the quesabirria tacos are unforgettable. The birria and melted mozzarella cheese is packed into housemade corn tortillas, then pan-seared until it has a gorgeous, crispy, golden-brown exterior. " - alison kessler
