Blue Corn Restaurant and Bar

Very tasty, nice presentation and inexpensive. Highest quality Mexican food I've had in a while. I will definitely come back to Philly to visit this place again

This place is great! My friend and I came here on a busy Saturday afternoon while strolling the Italian market. They had seats available right outside, not too close to the crowd. It was a great spot in the market to have lunch. Their food was very good and service was attentive and friendly

The food was delicious and was well priced. We ordered the tacos (beef, pork, and chicken) and they came out timely and were amazing. Waiters were polite and attentive.

$ CASH ONLY $ Chilean Sea-Bass Ceviche $17 from the daily special’s menu. Came with plantain chips. Enjoyed this. Nice start to the meal. Chorizo Sopecitos (3 per order) $14 small soft shell thick tortillas topped with refried beans, cheese, and sour cream. Good portion size. Really good. Would get this again. Could see myself craving this. Pescado Pibil from the special’s menu $30 pan seared whole Dorade fish, marinated with Pibil sauce, stuffed with zucchini flower. Appreciate that this was deboned. Friends really enjoyed this. Pibil sauce was a bit sweet for me. Side of sweet plantain $6 was really good.

Amazing! So many flavors and genuine hospitality. You will be wanting to come back for more ? they load the meat on to the tacos . The tortillas were especially fresh.

Blue Corn - Drool Warnings! This has been on my hit list for a few years now since I'm rarely in South Philly. Don't let the kitschy WAY-over decorated seasonal decor scare you. ? It was a combo of St Patrick Day, Valentine's Day, Christmas and Cinco De Mayo. It did make the place look kind of tacky but extra pieces of tinsel are not going to stop margaritas and tacos getting into my belly. ?? They have a fairly extensive menu for lunch and I was quite tempted by the sea bass ceviche (but didn't order it). I got the Passion Fruit margarita .... when it comes with a chili salt rim you know you it is going to be outstanding! I got the braised chicken pibil tacos.... expertly seasoned and love how there were all kinds of veggie accompaniments like cucumbers, grilled spring onion and pickled chilies.? I can take some heat so loved adding the chilies to the tacos. Like a little 4th of July party in my mouth! The portion size was perfect. The plating was just-oh-so pretty! Service was friendly and attentive. My mouth was quite happy! ?

Service is excellent and professional, the drinks elegant and tasty, the food both authentic and richly imaginative. I’ve traveled extensively in Mexico and this was as delicious and satisfying as any. Not cheap.

I had an excellent experience dining at Blue Corn. The service was good, fast and very professional. We tried an array of dishes, that all came at the same time. The blue corn tacos and the tacos pibil were flavorful and complex, maybe missing a bit of salt but that's the only fault I can find. Their prices are very good for the quality of food they are offering and I would surely visit again to try more from their menu.
