Secret Philadelphia
For one week this October, Philadelphia’s Latino-owned restaurants take center stage. Dine Latino Restaurant Week returns from October 4 to 10, 2026. Diners across the region will have an opportunity to explore the city’s rich and diverse Latino food scene. Expect specials, discounts, and a few prizes thrown in.
Now in its seventh year, the Greater Philadelphia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (GPHCC) organizes the campaign. Moreover, it’s timed to coincide with Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs September 15 through October 15. This year’s edition features 24 participating restaurants — among them Tierra Colombiana Restaurant, Malbec Argentine Steakhouse, Puyero Venezuelan Flavor, Mucho Peru, Bar Bombon, and El Merkury at Reading Terminal Market, spanning cuisines from Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Nicaragua, Argentina, Venezuela, and beyond.
Participating spots will offer specials during dinner service. Patrons have the option for dine-in, takeout, or delivery. Diners can also scan a QR code at any participating restaurant to enter a prize drawing. Up for grabs: a private immersive cooking experience at a participating restaurant, a catering tray for four from Don Hector Peruvian Restaurant, a $100 gift card, or a bottle of Tenango Rum ($60 value).
The full list of participating restaurants includes Margie’s Cuisine, Cafe Duskaia Nicaragua, Taqueria Morales, On Charcoal, Buena Vista Mexican Restaurant, El Merkury, Queen & Rock Cafe, El Fuerte de Loreto Philly, El Mictlan, Jocelyn’s Bakery, Don Hector, Geronimos, La Cocina Latin Cuisine, Mamajuana Cafe Philly, El Limon Lansdale, La Llamita Vegana, Adelita Taqueria and Restaurants, and Alma de Mexico Restaurant.
CSAA Insurance Group and Visit Philly are sponsoring this year’s Dine Latino Restaurant Week. For the full restaurant list and updates, visit dinelatinophl.com. Or, follow @dinelatino_phl on Instagram and Facebook using #DINELATINOPHL.
