I absolutely love this restaurant. The burritos are fantastic; loaded with cheese just the way I like them, and the raspberry iced tea is to die for. They also serve my favorite wine here (Moscato), and my favorite soda (Dr. Pepper). And when I came here last, they had the Phillies game on, and the whole restaurant cheered when the Phillies beat the Nationals.

Marcia was awesome. The food and the drink was the best sangria I had in a long time. My husband had tuna tosita and tuna taco was delicious. One of our favorite stops

I'm the first to admit that I love Mexican food and I must say that I love this place. Since moving to the Reading area last year, this restaurant has become my family's favorite by far! The food is excellent and the Chirizo is the best I've ever had. My favorite dish is called Molcajeta Mar y Tierra (it's their signature dish) and it's the best dish I've ever eaten of any cuisine..., and I'm Italian! It's a little spicy but not too much so don't get it if you can only eat bland foods. The waitstaff are also excellent. We often have Osiris (aka "Jose") as a waiter and he's the best. He taught me to properly pronounce the name of my favorite dish that I mentioned above (it's a bit of a mouthful to say, no pun intended). I don't speak Spanish but I think it has something to do with surf and turf. He's great. The food is great. The Blackberry Sangria is really great!!! I've tried other Alebrije locations and they are all good but this on of 5th Street has a few differences and I like it better then the others for that reason. I definitely recommend it.
