Mr. Tacos Birria

"Open daily from 10am to 5am—yes, you read that right—this cozy South Philly taqueria is one of our favorite places to grab tacos in town, no matter the hour. So it’s not shocking that their vinyl-sized pizza is equally impressive. The crust is super crispy, so you get a nice crackle even under a mountain of cilantro, black beans, marinated chicken, and peppers. Go for their Fajita de Asada, Chorizo, or Tinga, which are all red salsa-based. It’s takeout only, so grab a fresh pizza and head to Mifflin Square Park nearby with the scent of sour cream and jalapeños wafting through the air along the way. " - candis mclean

"This South Philly taqueria near Mifflin Square Park is a likable, casual takeout-only spot. Open daily from 10am-5am (yes, you read that right), it’s one of the few places in the city that can indulge your late-night taco wishlist. Our favorite here is the birria—they’re crispy, the meat is quality, and the consommé has just the right amount of spice. They’re pretty much half moon-shaped pouches of your dreams. And an order (which includes three) is under $20, so you can bite into some crunchy goodness and still pay your cable bill on time. " - alison kessler, candis mclean
