El Limon Chestnut Hill 8612 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19118

"Ordered through doordash, just some basic things to see if I would return. Chips were stale and not salted. Rice and beans were bland. I ordered 2 chicken and 4 carne asada tacos. Bland and also the wrong cut of beef is being used which is why the meat was dry. I guess I was supposed to drown 6 tacos with the two 2 oz sauces I received. I did not eat the chicken tacos but they looked dry as well, like the meats are cooked in a liquid/sauce but aren’t being held in liquid/sauce, but even if they were they had no flavor, just tasted onion/cilantro. Would never eat here again."

"This place is cute and I am so happy to have a spot like this in Chestnut Hill. Unfortunately the food has been hit or miss for me. I received tamales on multiple occasions that were rock hard, barely edible. From my understanding, that can only happen if you are microwaving them. As someone who grew up eating and making this type of food, it does disappoint me because the flavour is good. I want to trust that they will start putting care into the food they deliver and deliver fresh products."

"A great find! Food was well prepared and presented. Very tasty tacos. The service was superb. We were treated as though we were having dinner at the home of the owners. We were certainly treated with gracious and professional service. A BYOB and wine glasses quickly provided. Can’t wait to return!"

"I just visited El Limon to try out the newest eatery at the top of Chestnut Hill. I LOVED IT. I had a ground beef taco and a shrimp fajita with a very delicious, soothing frozen strawberry margarita! The portions were great! I have leftovers of the fajitas. Everything was bursting with flavor, with fresh ingredients you could see/smell/taste and enjoy. The side condiments of sauces were potent with HEAT. I couldn't take the red but I liked a smidge of the green- salsa verde? Anyway, its separate so you control the amount of spice. The containers were great and did not leak or mix & mush when I took my leftovers home. The price was right! I got lots of food including the large cocktail for LESS than $20. I sat indoors because of the extreme heat. The dining room was clean, small yet spacious enough where I did not feel cramped. GREAT air conditioning. Cool festive music. The FRIDA ART is epic! The server and the cashier were friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to return to try out more items on the menu. I hope other visits will yield similar experiences."

"The wait is finally over and so worth it! Thank you for opening up a Chestnut Hill location! We ordered take-out on the first day it was open. The shrimp burritos are very good and have plenty of meat. We paid extra for the guac which was delicious as well- so is the tomitillo sauce. It is great to finally have an affordable restaurant with an outdoor seating option at the top of the hill. I’m pretty sure they are BYOB as wel."
