"Condesa is the best Mexican place to open in Philadelphia in a long time - which shouldn’t come as a surprise considering how great the food is at their other restaurant Suraya. Almost all of the dishes on the menu are made with masa that they grind in-house, and you can taste the difference in everything from the tortillas that come with the goat birria stew to a chocolate “tamale” that tastes like brownie batter. Although it’s a little more expensive than it should be, we wouldn’t be surprised if this place is a household name in Philly a year from now." - sydney mcelwee
