Philly has a lot of BYOB's (Bring Your Own Bottle) but what sets Las Cazuelas apart from the others is it is a BYOT. What does the T stand for you ask? Well it is a bring your own tequila restaurant. They sell their own margarita mixes for you to add your own tequila to. This makes dining here much cheaper than those other places that sell you $ 10 margaritas. Â
If that wasn't enough, they have really good food as well that is authentic Mexican. I especially like the mole sauce. Many times when you get it at other places you cannot taste the Mexican chocolate but at this restaurant you can taste every ingredient that is put in each dish. Another favorite is the guacamole. They use the freshest ingredients and it shows. The place is very low key and easy going with and large enough for groups to host a party.
