Why they're an Icon
Executive chef: Cristina Martinez
James Beard Award
2024
From the OpenTable editors: James Beard Award winner Cristina Martinez recently combined her beloved taqueria South Philly Barbacoa with her larger restaurant Casa Mexico, so you have double the incentive to visit. Expect favorites like lamb barbacoa from a yellow cart outside and head indoors for a bigger feast of green mole with chicken, queso fundido with chorizo, and a host of margaritas.
