El Gallito 2 - Reading

I’m so thrilled to have discovered this hidden gem in Pennsylvania. Coming from New York, where there are three Mexican shops on every block and at every train stop, I found it challenging to locate quality Mexican products, meats, cheeses, and candies here. The prices are fantastic! Compared to New York City, I find it quite affordable for Pennsylvania. In contrast to Giant, where international products are often overpriced, this place offers great deals. For example, Giant sells limes at seven for $7-8, while here you can buy six for just $1! It really reminds me of the Mexican street vendors in NYC. I’ll definitely be returning to shop here. It brings back so many memories of the wonderful Mexican shops I used to frequent in New York. Everything is authentic and delicious. And they even have pan dulce!

The bakery offers a variety of delicious treats, but many of them are left uncovered and not displayed in a case. Unfortunately, I noticed flies on the cakes topped with strawberries. On a positive note, there is a private parking lot available, which is a definite advantage.

The restaurant offers a great selection of Mexican dishes, snacks, and other items. However, everything is quite pricey, especially given its proximity to Philadelphia. It's easy to rack up a bill of over ninety dollars for snacks, bread, eggs, and chorizo.

Do not bring your kids there! They threaten hard to children for no reason. Terrible food. Awful people cooking and working there.

The food is bad the staff are shady. Was recommended there on my mother. Will Never go back. Got offered drugs and garbage food. Had to deal with the workers attitudes as soon as entering the door. Left with stale bread and will never return.
