As a South Philly resident these are my tried and true restaurants that I would recommend if you were in my neighborhood :)

amazing tacos, good drinks, fun specials - sit outside on a really nice day or grab a seat inside on a more gloomy day, either way Blue corn has great ambience and even better staff.
Blue Corn Restaurant and Bar
a for real tried and true. solid solid spot for burritos, tacos, drinks and whatever your heart desires. celebrated highs at cantina and drank away some lows, this is the spot.
Cantina Los Caballitos
Amazing!! Must go. Grab a reservation and enjoy!
Tabachoy
my brain says gate keep CJ&Ds but my heart wants to show them love!! the best f*cking pizza in the city hands down. don’t be surprised if you see me in line on a Sunday. I’m in there like swimwear.
CJ & D's Trenton Tomato Pies
who woulda guessed?? food is GOOD. drinks are solid. night is young
