Best Mexican Restaurants in Philadelphia
Three Mexican spots clear our bar in Philadelphia. Two are Delicious.
El Chingon Philly leads, a Bib Gourmand pick in South Philadelphia with a James Beard Semifinalist nod. South Philly Barbacoa backs it up in Bella Vista, cheap and carrying a James Beard Winner badge from 2022. Amá rounds it out in Fishtown at Damn Good, a 2026 Semifinalist still finding its footing. Three spots, three neighborhoods, no filler.
