The 25 Best Restaurants In Philadelphia - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"This beloved Italian Market taqueria only has a few items on the menu—barbacoa and pancita tacos, a lamb consomme, and specials like tamales and quesadillas. They're all very good, especially the juicy, fatty, incredibly flavorful lamb barbacoa, which is the star of the single best taco in Philly. The corn tortillas are just as memorable as the fillings—they're thick and speckled with mini air pockets, and delicious whether they're cradling pancita or simply dipped in the housemade salsas. It’s a pretty popular spot with tourists (thank you, Chef's Table), so show up before noon or later in the afternoon if you don’t want to wait in line." - candis mclean, alison kessler
