Revolution Taco, located in Philadelphia, specializes in unique and gourmet tacos and other Mexican-inspired fare in its bright and welcoming restaurant. For a flavorful start to your meal, enjoy the guacamole and salsa with tortilla chips and the crisp empanada pastry stuffed with spinach and fontina cheese. But of course, Revolution Taco is all about tacos, with some of the most unique varieties including the Korean short rib tacos with ssamjang aioli, pickled cucumber and cilantro, the chipotle barbecue brisket with pickled jalapenos and ginger cabbage slaw and the smoked mushroom vegan taco with avocado chimichurri sauce, all of which are available as two or three packs. Revolution Taco also has create-your-own bowls and burritos, all of which include black beans, rice, pico de gallo, cheese, lime crema, salsa roja and your choice of protein. Craving something sweet? Opt for the rich chocolate brownie for dessert.

La Cita is fantastic! It's small, but the food is so interesting. You'll find more traditional fare as well as eclectic plates. We stuck with the specials board and everything was fantastic. My dish was a roasted poblano stuffed with meats and fruits like apple, pears, and pomegranate - fall flavors in July, but I'm not mad about it. Portions are perfectly sized, not too big, not too small. Servers were on top of everything. It can get noisy because it's such a small space, but it's tolerable. Be patient, give the kitchen time to build your dish and I promise you, you won't be disappointed!
