Teresa's Mesa - Philadelphia

I've been to this place several times and it's never been less than five start service. It is so good that I live in West Philly, and I take Lyft or Uber to get there. The tortilla soup is to die, the tacos are delicious, the Chile relleno burrito is excellent, and the Quesadillas are huge portions. Prices are more than reasonable, and the workers are always polite, friendly and professional. The desserts should not be missed. I recommend the Tres Leches cake.

Excellent! I was looking for a quick stop to pick up mexican lunch on the way home from the ER with my dog. Found this delightful place by chance. I had chips and salsa which was homemade. The lime chicken burrito was huge and full a well seasoned meat. The give you real crema that tastes fresh. And lastly the churro donuts are simply amazing. I drove home for 30 minutes and inhaled all of it. What a pleasant surprise, I will definitely be back.

This is a great spot for brunch or dinner. Every dinner item we've tried was great, and I highly recommend their version of biscuits gravy off the brunch menu. BYOB is always a plus. Also, they have flan! It's really good. The people who work there have always been tremendously friendly. The only thing I don't love about dinner is that it is somewhat ambiguous as to whether or not you have a server or if it's fast-casual. You pay at the register when you order, but then someone brings your food to you and clears your place. It's a half-service kind of thing, so I think tipping expectations are confusing. I tip on the ipad when I order, but the usual 15-20% seems like a lot for simple fast-casual service, but I want to treat people well. TBH it makes the takeout option a little bit more appealing than dining in.

I will def be back the next time I visit the city. I ordered the coconut shrimp tacos and the skirt steak tacos and the churro donuts. Everything was delicious. I would have never thought to pair strawberries with coconut shrimp but the sweet and salty flavors are magic together. And the pomegranate gives a burst of flavor to the steak tacos. And I love how light and airy the churro donuts are. Bonus: the staff is super friendly!

Awesome! The staff was very polite and personable. We brought our own bottle of wine and then, ordered the guacamole, the carnitas and brisk tacos, and the churro donuts. Everything came out quick and tasted great! One of the donuts was a little hard, but it was still good. This will be our new go-to spot for Mexican food :
