“I had a great brunch. Loved the atmosphere. Food was excellent. I’ll definitely be back”
“Awesome menu, great vibes and really tasty food. Must try this place.”
“Short Rib - Take out, grill yourself. Super easy and delicious.”
“After discovering the restaurant in March, I had to return for my birthday in August. So my husband and I made the 3-hour drive to Philly just so I could eat at Monster Vegan twice in one day. The food was consistently delicious. I could eat the eggrolls and tacos every day. The service was wonderfully inviting. The vibe is great during the day but the evening totally elevates it. I’m also thankful for their mocktail menu is just as creative as the rest of their drink menu and not just a spirit-free mojito. It’s my favorite restaurant and will gladly make the trek to Philly again just to visit Monster Vegan.”

Get on the list early. We came in at 10p on a Saturday night and didn't get into the bar until 12:15a.
We stayed until closing.
The drinks were delicious and we had a great time”

“I absolutely adored this place! It was in a cute neighborhood and the cafe itself was so cozy and welcoming. Everyone was super friendly and the food was the BEST! 10 outta 10! A must if you visit Philly!!”
“The Crunch Berry Cereal Treat was a colorful version of a Rice Krispies Treat. I appreciated the variety of sandwiches, but was disappointed by all the plastic wrap. The Scrapple, Egg, and Cheese Sammy from Primary had so much egg that I couldn't even taste the scrapple.”
“I purchased one mocha cake, pumpkin pie, and two quiches! 😋🍰🥧 #Bakery #Treats #Dessert #Cafe #Food. Every dessert was delicious. I give 10 🌟 to Night Kitchen Bakery&Cafe.”
“This is a true gem. It’s such a quant and chill atmosphere with fresh and delicious food whatever time of day you come. We got the SMASH burger and Chicken BLT this time but breakfast is great too. It’s not super greasy or heavy. It sits just right. The prices are great too!

“We went for dinner around 5pm today with a group of 7 and everything was fantastic!!! The food was so fresh and flavorful. You can definitely tell they put love into their food and pride themselves on great presentation. BYOB with great mixers and smoothies. The service was very attentive and friendly. Very cozy inviting atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!!”
“An extensive variety of tapas restaurant with a good selection of wines and outdoor seating area. A focus on fresh, all crafted with the finest authentic ingredients. **Wine Selection**: A curated list of wines which achieve recognition as the "Best Organic Wine List" in North America in 2023. **Ambiance**: A cozy, inviting outdoor patio with comfortable seating, perhaps with Spanish decor and ambient lighting to create a relaxing atmosphere. **Service**: Knowledgeable staff who can provide recommendations on food and wine pairings, and who offer friendly, attentive service.”

“Our waiter Fathi went above and beyond, the food was delicious, the service exemplary, and the vibe great. Good romantic spot, or family friendly. Fresh bread and desert. The after dinner tea is such a sweet end to the night!”
“So good! The best bread before dinner ever! My favorite crab cake now and the hashbrown potatoes were amazing! We will be back!”

“I recently celebrated a milestone birthday with a dinner at Elwood with family and friends. Chef Adam and Jenny were wonderful to work with and the meal was absolutely delicious. Everyone loved the venison scrapple amuse bouche. We shared several orders of perogies and cheese platters to kick off the meal, followed by a couple of orders of the tri- tip beef, the sea bass, and the rabbit, which are served family style with a whole host of accompaniments, including exceptional mashed potato that got rave reviews and deserves it's own mention. Several of the diners had never had rabbit, but they all tried it and it was a hit! I already have plans to come with some friends for an afternoon tea, and my husband and I will definitely be back for dinner and/or one of the dining events that Chef Adam hosts. Adam & Jenny, thank you for my birthday dinner one to remember!💖”
“An easy 5 stars! Every bite of our omakase dinner was delicious. Very fresh fish! Service was attentive and it was spectacular getting to watch the chef work his magic up close. The ambiance was pleasant. I also appreciated that they accommodated my husband and I as pescatarians.

“I was so excited to dine at Her Place Supper Club. The food, ambiance and service were exactly what I expected. I can only give 4 stars on food, however, because the scallops had grit in them. I thought it was just my dish and didn’t want to complain, but on the way home, my friend told me her scallops had grit too. That’s a shame. Other than that, it was a fantastic dining experience.”
“We had a good, not great meal here. For the price (which was considerable) we were definitely expecting a bit more. The cocktails were great and the service great, the food was a bit underwhelming. We went with the tasting menu instead of a la carte and found the dishes good, but not anything particularly special. They were very accommodating with an allergy which was very nice. I'd like to try the bar menu but probably don't need another dining room experience.”
“My wife and I have been going here for 8 years, each time we’ve gone it’s been a wonderful experience. The food is terrific, the menu changes all the time with unique ingredients that makes each visit a new visit a new experience. The staff is wonderful, always going above and beyond to help you understand the menu and feel welcome. One of the best bargains in the city for quality/quantity of the food you get, I’ve never been disappointed and I don’t think you will be either.”
“Wonderful time at Sakana this weekend! Their sushi is unparalleled in Philly and the service is impeccable.”

“When I arrived at LAX late at night, I was disappointed to find that all the food options were closed. Hungry and unsure of what to get, I stumbled upon a Farmer’s Fridge vending machine and decided to give it a try. I chose the chicken Caesar salad, not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the flavors were well-balanced, and it tasted far better than I anticipated. It was a convenient and satisfying option, and I’d definitely grab one again in a pinch!”
“Tried the chips and guacamole while waiting for a friend who is getting a surgical procedure done. Everything was super fresh and delicious. I’m picky about guacamole but this was so good! I also got the white cheddar cheese cubes, they were also very good. The salads all look amazing, I wish I had tried one of those as well. I wish more places had one of these vending machines!”
“Their prices is very reasonable for a case of cupcakes, and even cakes that you would see in a regular supermarket are reasonable. And the taste is amazing. Definitely recommend this place.”
“A very pleasant semi self serve offering dining inside or out was just the ticket for weary travelers----- And I don't find their prices at all out of line, as an example they had an iceberg lettuce good sized salad at the self serve for five bucks; a long with many other premade temptations. The daughter enjoyed a generous sied freshly made pepperoni . And my "Soulful Sunday Dinner" was scrumptious! Half a chicken baked and bbqd' served w collard greens and black eyed beans and don't forget the cornbread. The staff were all very helpful and the dining room was a Disney Animators Palette!”
“My friends and I decided to go to Parks On Tap at Columbus Square Park and we had a great time. The drinks were the best part but the food was nice as well. The staff was very hardworking!”
“We came across this place while we were in Philly last month,July. We were looking for a place to dine. It was our first time with Mediterranean cuisine. Positive ambience as soon as we walk in, our server ‘s name ELIF ( hope i remember it right)guided as through with menu selection and showed the best costumer service . I appreciated the complimentary bread and the hummus while waiting for the entree.I love the taste of it as freshly baked from the oven. Food portions are just right. The price is also decent. We concluded with a Turkey tea…it amazingly taste good. Will definitely visit this place again….to Elif,thank you very much.”

“The pho was excellent—rich broth and great flavor. Just a heads-up: they don’t accept cards, so it's cash only. The place isn’t the cleanest or most polished, but honestly, that seems to be pretty common with a lot of authentic Vietnamese spots. Worth it for the food.”

“Loved dropping in here on a Saturday. Very relaxed vibes walking in here, perfect for a relaxed meet up, coffee or quick bite. My wife and I ordered the Ume Plum Tea, Vietnamese Latte, Khang’s Special Banh Mi, Crispy Tofu Banh Mi, and Doenjang Butter Fries. The Ume Plum Tea is so unique, and their Vietnamese Latte is the best I’ve had. Their food portions are big, and will definitely leave you full. Highly recommend this place!”

“Customer service was exceptional. Seating area was a bit small but everyone was so friendly and worked as a team. Honestly the best service I ever had. I went for restaurant week and ordered the shrimp creole. Omg I cleaned my plate and was still salivating over the idea of more when I got home. My partner ordered the crab soup and the salmon. Eyes rolled in the back of his head y’all. Everything was so well and for my first time they left a lasting impression. Would definitely dine here again. I’m just disappointed the shrimp creole isn’t on the regular menu.”
“I went for the first time there last week with my sister niece and friends and we all Loved it! We wished there was one here in IN as well we were just visiting last week and ran across it for few things loved the coffee and tea choices so if it does come closer to IN would love to visit it and try all their teas pastries most likely! Loved the velvet layered cake and tarts would have gotten another if I could!”
“This is my new favorite spot! The food is incredible and the drink menu is on point!”

“Waitress was very knowledgeable about the cuisine. Other staff were friendly and courteous. Food was excellent, tastes wonderful and plated beautifully. The interior might remind you of an old time elegant railroad car with curved ceiling, crystal chandeliers, etc. great place for special occasions.”
“Everything was perfect from the moment I entered. The front host greeted me with a welcoming smile. I dined at the bar. My bartender was incredibly knowledgeable and walked me through a beautiful meal. Service was top notch. The team work was beautiful to watch. Great attention to detail. The food absolutely amazing. 5 stars”
“I am still glowing in the warmth of the chic and cozy atmosphere, incredible service, and unbelievably delicious meal I had this evening. This was my first visit to Miss Rachel’s Pantry, and it was outstanding from start (delectable biscuits) to finish (pineapple upside down cake with coconut ice cream). While I regularly enjoy vegetarian cuisine, I’m an omnivore and haven’t had much experience with vegan food. Chef Rachel and team’s vegan cuisine was beyond my wildest imagination — a visual and culinary work of art. So delicious- I will definitely be back again soon and regularly! Don’t hesitate! Book that reservation and let your taste buds dance with delight!”
“My first French cuisine experience did not disappoint. My son and I enjoyed a lovely meal and cocktails orchestrated by the best staff - Chef Clay, Beau (our server), and Alex(Bartender). From the first course I knew this was going to be one of, if not the best, dining experiences thus far in my lifetime. I highly recommend that everyone take the time to enjoy this fine dining establishment. You will not be disappointed.”
“My friends and I had an amazing experience at Fabrika! We went for my birthday after hearing great things. The show and performers were spectacular. Very interactive and entertaining. The food and drinks were also delicious, and our server was so accommodating. And at the end, they open the dance floor, which is so fun! 10/10.”
“Gorgeous location, great service, and most importantly the food is amazing. I fervently wish Irwin’s existed in my hometown as I’m sure I would become a regular. As it is, I will definitely be going back the next time I’m in Philly. The setting, on the 8th floor of an old school building, is extremely cool and aesthetic and they styled the space beautifully with lots of plants. The view is wonderful. I went with a friend and we shared a “girl dinner” of four desserts followed by pasta. I keep thinking about the gelato I had, which was flavored with sweet cream and topped with a layer of honey and a mound of pistachios. The sweet and salty combination was amazing. Another standout was the orange olive oil torte with a bay leaf-infused cream. The lemon pasta was simple with a depth of flavor and strong umami. The bathroom also gets excellent lighting for selfies. Highly recommend.”
“I have been to many course meals, but this is the top 5 best restaurants I have ever been to. Philadelphia is so lucky to have Elma. Amazing food, incredible service and hospitality. I was reminded of childhood meals and reveled in the incredible blend of flavors and textures. I will absolutely be coming back to dine at the incredible Elma.”
“We didn’t get to eat at Zahav - but got the next big thing and ordered the Lamb Meal from gold belly with salatim. It was DELICIOUS!! Best lamb we have ever had, so delicious. Salads were yummy, hummus well done and could easily feed 6 adults. So. Much. Food. If you can’t make it to the restaurant- order the kit from Goldbelly and treat yourself!”
“We ordered a medium steak at this restaurant, but both steaks we received were almost well-done. It was clearly overcooked and we pointed this out to our server. She cut into the center of the meat, acknowledged it immediately, and made me a new steak. The new meat was a satisfactory medium cooked steak. After that, the manager came and checked again to make sure there was no problem.
Overall, I think the service here is top notch. The distance between seats is appropriate, so it's not uncomfortable, and the interior is also great. I just think the quality of the steak taste wasn't as great as I expected. I think it's a great place to go to set the mood for a special day, or just have a glass of wine with a light menu. However, if your goal is to experience the best steak taste, we recommend going elsewhere.”

“As a travel agent, food is important to me. I not only book for my clients, but I also make restaurant recommendations and WOW!!!!!! This place is it 😍😍😍 I took many photos last night of the food, the atmosphere felt as though I was not in Philadelphia, but far away on a perfect vacation dining at an amazing restaurant. I'm going to post my photos on my business page, people, if you want Greek food, THIS IS YOUR PLACE ☺️ Thank you for a wonderful hospitality and an amazing time my fiance and I will never forget.”

“Restaurant Review: Hidden Gem in Philadelphia
We decided to try this restaurant in Philadelphia after seeing its great Google reviews, and it didn’t disappoint!
When we arrived, the restaurant was quiet, with just one other couple dining. The ambiance was simple, though the seating arrangement felt a bit tight, and the table was smaller than a standard four-person dining table. However, the experience more than made up for it.
Our waitress, Harwinder, a nursing student, greeted us with a warm smile and exceptional hospitality. She took the time to explain the menu and even served us complimentary onion bhajji, which was a delightful start to our meal.
I opted for the Lamb Karahi and Garlic Naan—my first time trying Lamb Karahi, and it was absolutely phenomenal! The spices were perfectly balanced, and the lamb was incredibly tender and flavorful. My son chose Paneer Makhani and Bullet Naan. While the Paneer Makhani wasn’t as creamy as we’re used to, it was still delicious. The Bullet Naan, however, turned out to be much spicier than expected—truly living up to its name! My son couldn’t handle the heat, so we switched dishes and ordered a Rosemary Naan to cool things down. The Rosemary Naan was a standout—fragrant and perfectly baked.
To finish, we treated ourselves to Malai Kulfi, which was the perfect sweet ending to an already amazing meal. We also appreciated how affordable everything was—the pricing felt very reasonable for the quality of food and service.
Overall, this place is a hidden gem with incredible food, excellent service, and great value. I highly recommend it and will definitely return!
Vegetarian options: Paneer Makhani only we tried.”
“My wife and I cherish having this spot so close by!
We originally fell in love with the birria tacos back in the food truck days - honestly haven't had a bad dish. The tortas are tasty and filling - chorizo is my go to right now. And there is just something special about their chips w/ guac.
Check it out - you won't be disappointed.”
“Morrone's Water Ice is the perfect place to cool off on a hot day. With a variety of fresh and delicious flavors, their ice is refreshing and sweet to the touch. The smooth texture and rich flavor make each bite a delight. The friendly staff and quick service add to the wonderful experience. A must-visit for those who love cool desserts!”
“Waitress was very knowledgeable about the cuisine. Other staff were friendly and courteous. Food was excellent, tastes wonderful and plated beautifully. The interior might remind you of an old time elegant railroad car with curved ceiling, crystal chandeliers, etc. great place for special occasions.”
“For me, Mr. Pig is now my go to Korean restaurant in my neighborhood. The space is big and well-ventilated - love watching the K-pop videos while enjoying. Staff is welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The menu is comprehensive, if you don't want to do BBQ, and you can pop in to just have a bowl of raemyung (cold noodles), so don't be intimidated. I just tried the Combo Beef BBQ for dinner, it was very good and plentiful. The namul (side dishes) are simple yet delicious - I personally love having the potato salad, my favorite. Everything was so yummy, I forgot to take photos. Next time.”
“Yoomi was our server she was very nice and welcoming And the best cook here !!!!!!! We travel all the way from Delaware and I would do it any day. The food is great fresh and prepared well. I would have given this place 10 stars!!!!!!!”

“The chicken shawarma sandwich was the best I've had in this area. Highly recommend! The customer service was great, the space was clean and vibrant, and the food was fresh and flavorful.”
“I had snapper soup there. It was an 11 out of a possible 10. My wife had New England clam chowder it is (her score system) a 10 out of 10. Best ever. Unfortunately, they do not currently have snapper soup. Missing the old Bookbinder too. Signed, Old Philadelphia natives.”
“I love this place, great food, lots of flavors to explore. wonderful staff, and seeing the owner front of house and behind the line was a beautiful experience 🦋. I cannot wait to come back and eat here again! 😀 Traveled from Utah to come eat here! (plus visit my son, that surprised us with reservations) a must visit if you get a chance to go! 🦋”
“The staff is amazing, so friendly and welcoming. It was our first visit, and they were not rushing us to place our order. Expect to wait during peak time. BUT Worth the wait, coffee ☕️ so yummy!!”
“Excellent friendly service and some truly remarkable food. Highly recommend.”
“Outstanding service and dining experience. Phenomenal food. BYOB!”
“Wonderful intimate experience. Food was delicious, service was phenomenal. Pours on the drinks were a bit small and I would maybe skip on the drink pearing next time.”
“Exquisite Khao Soi--probably the best I've ever had. The chicken is fall-apart and juicy. The curry is hearty, aromatic, and deep in flavor. The pickled vegetables and onions cut through the richness of the curry cleanly. The crunchiness of the fried noodles perfectly augment the springiness of the broth-soaked ramen noodles. Please do yourself a favor and order this dish :)
The crispy chicken skin and prohok dip complemented each other well as starters. I had a fun experience adding the fried skin into the cabbage wraps with the prohok dip, and if you're eyeing these two appetizers, I'd definitely try eating them this way!
The restaurant itself is set in a super cozy and intimate space, and the servers are attentive and welcoming. Maybe it's selfish of me, but I just wish there was a bit more space :)
Definitely coming back for that Khao Soi and maybe the fried rice”
“Great covered outdoor patio along with tasty food - perfect combination.”
“We happened upon this gem purely by chance. We had an amazing meal from A-Z (!!!) The sushi is phenomenal; sit at the newly designed sushi bar in the back and enjoy unique daily catches that come in through the connections the owner has with local fishermen. The restaurant is also known for their aged steaks, and Kobe prime rib, which we will try next time. I had the miso black bass and it was one of the best flavors with fish I have ever had. The broth had such a delicate shiitake mushroom flavor, which I loved. I literally couldn’t have had enough of this delicate, delicious dish. I could have had two orders and eaten it all! I think this dish epitomizes what the word UMAMI means. I also had the sautéed mushroom extravaganza, a treat for every taste bud of incredible flavors melted with a delicate sauce. My husband had their unique collection of sushi and sashimi choices that were all enjoyed at their stunningly beautiful sushi bar, complete with two young, passionate chefs who love what they do, and treasure their personal designs of the fish and rolls. All the rolls are presented in this great wooden cradle design, which I thought was so unique and functional. The owner was all smiles and genuinely happy to have had us try his new restaurant. I recommend it highly for either an exceptional steak meal (all are btw, so reasonably priced so order them for sure), or the traditional sushi. You won’t be disappointed. This will be our weekly go-to restaurant and we are counting the days until we will return, which actually will be next Tuesday the 9th! Bravo to the whole team at Umami and thank you for your passion for Japanese food, and for doing it right from A-Z. We will see you soon! Debbie and Gene”
“Really hip spot for drinks. I could easily see it being busier (there was a line when we left) but luckily when we went around 9PM on a Saturday we were able to grab one of the side tables, which were really cute! The menu is extensive so there's bound to be something for everyone. Prices were average, certainly not cheap but not out of line with what you'd expect for a place like this. Staff was really friendly and accommodating.
We got the corn 'n oil (lovely), corpse reviver #2 (pretty good), nitro espresso martini (I will never convert to an espresso martini liker so this was what it was), and honey bee. My biggest wish for the honey bee (and really all of their drinks) is that they weren't served in martini glasses (corn 'n oil thankfully was not), as it's just so much work to drink and I think detracts from the drink overall.”
“Delicious!!! My friends and I were so excited to try Bar Jawn, especially since we’ve loved Pizza Jawn for a long time! The food and drinks were all fabulous - Bar Jawn has a chill, relaxed atmosphere but boasts an elevated bar menu that is so much more and so far beyond typical bar food! Some of our favorites were the drunken ravioli, the buffalo arancini (so inventive!!!), the chicken parm (make sure you get it with ravioli!), the mozzarella triangles (mozz sticks with an upgrade!) and the eggplant stack! So excited to come back as the menu changes and try even more awesome options! Thank you, Bar Jawn!”
“My wife and I have been going here for 8 years, each time we’ve gone it’s been a wonderful experience. The food is terrific, the menu changes all the time with unique ingredients that makes each visit a new visit a new experience. The staff is wonderful, always going above and beyond to help you understand the menu and feel welcome. One of the best bargains in the city for quality/quantity of the food you get, I’ve never been disappointed and I don’t think you will be either.”
“More technical virtuosity in the raw or cold dishes. The mushroom carpaccio for example really sparkled. The grilled dishes seemed a bit overwhelmed with sauce and char. The atmosphere is friendly as is the staff.”
“I am still glowing in the warmth of the chic and cozy atmosphere, incredible service, and unbelievably delicious meal I had this evening.

“Everything we ordered was so good! Very friendly, nice server and the cook! Genuinely happy eating there. A restaurant where you can eat carefully selected dishes at a reasonable price!”
“Amazing service amazing bartenders Cecil is the man!!!! Big shout out for great selections and amazing drinks all night!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We stopped in for lunch, and it could not have been better! We had burgers, which were cooked to perfection and delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!”
“The food was great! I wish the portions were slightly larger. But overall this was great experience. Servers seemed rushed/in a hurry. They may need to hire one more person.”
“Incredible food, wonderful staff and service. We loved our date night here! Highly recommend.”
“The food was really good and it was my first time trying this place. The waitress, Shilpa, was very sweet. I would come back just to be served by her again. Thank you!”
“We had booked Veda for our daughter's wedding welcome dinner on 5/3/24. The whole process from the time we contacted them till we had our function was smooth. They were very accommodating to our requirements and went beyond our expectations. If you are looking to have a large gathering I will definitely recommend doing a buyout. We decided on the menu and then we were guests at our own dinner. It is full service. The ambience was good and our guests enjoyed both the food and their awesome selection of cocktails. Gaurav Bhardwaj and Brazil provided excellent service. Did I mention Food? Very Good and Flavorful. We are from Delhi and big foodies, and I must tell you that they superseded our expectations. The décor is very pleasant and we didn't need to do anything additional They provided us two stations for our henna ladies. Our function was a big hit. Check them out for your next baby shower, engagement, birthday function!!!!!”
“Each dish, from first course through dessert, was almost indescribably delicious. That had my family sharing our plates all evening. The servers, especially Jonah, were friendly, very attentive, and helpful. A wonderful dining experience.”

“Sunday after the game sports brewery everyone needs. The food is on point. But the real reason is the craft Brew - what a Wonderful selection. The staff was stellar and attentive. Bring friends and Enjoy.”
“One of my favorite places in the world. The food at ambiance and THE PEOPLE. every single person I have brought here comes back for more. Luis Jane Jamie Alex the entire team goes above and beyond making you feel as if you are family.”
“Came here for my birthday. We didn’t do the testing menu. We just ordered a bunch of things. Everything was enjoyable. Drink weren’t great so we got a bottle of wine. I’ll visit again to try the rest of menu.”
“Got the short ribs very tasty, but a little chewy. Beans were on point, and the chicken was chicken. Wasn't blown away, but wasn't regretting it either.”
“Hosted my bridal shower at Kiddo this past weekend and had a wonderful experience. Wyatt and the team could not have been easier to work with. They were so accommodating and managed everything so well. Everyone loved the food (seasonal, great portions, delicious), the cocktails were amazing, and the space is so cute. Highly recommend for events or even just for weekend brunch.”
“Recently was visiting Philadelphia and craving Italian food. I asked some locals where to go and was sent here. Did not disappoint. Great ambiance, service was excellent and not stuffy, food was on point and I felt the prices presented a great value.”
“Unique food, cozy, candlelit atmosphere. Our group enjoyed it tremendously. Highly recommend.”

You place your orders for meat via an iPad and all other foods (vegetables/fish balls/tofu etc) are self serve like a buffet. The meat comes out quickly and is good quality. The servers are very attentive and do a great job of taking away empty plates and replacing napkins. There are also some prepared foods, fruits, and desserts at the self serve station, as well as a full sauce bar. Drinks are located in the fridge (non alcoholic) and self serve, and are the classic Asian drinks like milk tea, aloe drink, and soy milk.
All tables have one large burner/one pot, so I wouldn’t recommend coming with a part of more than 4-5 people”
“This spot is a gem! The sushi is fresh and flavorful, paired perfectly with their expertly crafted cocktails. The tropical chic ambiance creates a vibrant yet relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend! Rose and Yamilet took great care of my hubby and me!”
“I normally don’t leave reviews but Shannon is awesome!! Her personality is awesome and relaxed. We felt very welcomed and she is super attentive. We dined outside because of the beautiful weather and our food did not disappoint! Thanks ”
“Friendly staff! Hostess was great as was our server. I only know she had a unique name. Not a large menu but what they do offer is amazing. Great atmosphere too!”
“My friend and I went to Gou this weekend. It was our first time at a Haitian restaurant. The staff were wonderful. Friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. I highly recommend Gou and I will be going back again soon.”
“I was missing my partner, who is Turkish and lives in Turkey. So I went to Ramiz to reminisce of my times in Turkey with her. I arrived pretty early on a Saturday evening, so the restaurant had few people. I splurged on the Mixed Grill entree. Service was spectacular and the food was really good! (I can’t really publicly say better than my Turkish Partner’s cooking. ?)”
“You will not be disappointed, from the ambiance, the friendly, professional service and the delicious food!”
“Cute spot for a drink. Interesting mix of drink options and prices were quite reasonable for the area. The seating is a bit limited but we were lucky enough to grab a seat right by the bar. Bartenders were super friendly and quick. Didn't get any food but the sandwiches around us looked interesting and would consider coming back to try these.”
“We got there for our 5 pm reservation. Very few people were there, and we thought we should have made the reservation for later. By 5:30, the place was packed! Glad we went earlier. Anyhow, the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The service was great (even with the crowd). And the food was delicious! I'll recommend this restaurant to my friends.”
“Great place to eat and meet friends. The food is delicious and the service was wonderful. I have some dietary restrictions, and they were very accommodating. I highly recommend this restaurant. I will definitely be back.
Vegetarian options: The restaurant will find vegetarian options for you.
Dietary restrictions: I am vegetarian and cannot have butter. I can have dairy. The restaurant was very accommodating,”

“Yet another hidden gem in Philly. I came in for the first time today by chance and immediately felt so so so welcomed into the space. It is much smaller of a space than Madis Coffee Roasters (Twisted Grounds has only a few small tables to sit), but the staff is equally as kind, friendly, talkative, and enjoyable to be around. You can quickly tell that the team here has a great rapport with each other, and it makes the atmosphere comfortable and fun to be in. They have super cute merch and engaging conversations. I'm excited for this to be one of my regular haunts in Philly. The manager runs this place like a well-oiled machine.”
“The food was outstanding, I had the eggplant & burrito appetizer and the fusilli with crab and cherry tomatoes in a broccoli pesto sauce...delicious. And always my end to a great m a also is a dessert. I am seeker of great tira misu, and their's was outstanding as well and homemade as everything else had been. But I must know if the tira misu was made with mascarpone. Please ler me know. I will definitely come again!”

“Just wrapped up a "steak-out" at Geno's Steaks in South Philly legendary landmark that draws tourists like moths to a flame. Or me to the Bat signal. And let me tell you, this place is a Gotham-sized slice of Philly flavor! The fluorescent lights and bustling energy felt like a scene straight outta Joker's Gotham night club. I went with the classic "Whiz Without"—that's Philly code for a cheesesteak with Cheez Whiz and no fried onions, for all you Bat-fans out there. One bite, and I was hooked. The thinly sliced steak, melty cheese, and soft roll created a symphony of flavors that would make even the Penguin surrender his lunch money. But Geno's ain't just about cheesesteaks, folks. Their cheese fries, ordered from the separate window where you get fries and sodas, are a gooey, delicious crime against healthy eating. Coke products available to drink. And Cherry peppers, relish, ketchup, and mustard are free and self-serve. While I devoured my feast, I couldn't help but notice the wall adorned with police patches from across the U.S. – a tribute to the thin blue line that reminded me of my own crusade for justice. Snapped a pic in front of it, a symbol of the shared fight for good that unites us all. Overall, Geno's Steaks lives up to its legendary reputation. It's a taste of Philly history, a tribute to the everyday heroes, and a cheesesteak experience that'll leave you saying, "Yo, that was good shtuff".”
“Excellent food and service. I had a very nice juicy well seasoned Ribeye steak. (Perfect for mama) Hubby had king crab fried rice, crispy rice sushi and lobster bisque. The rest of the family also had what I was told amazing dishes and cocktails.
This is a really great place and the staff are very nice. The bar seemed pretty busy. Lots of people celebrating birthdays. If you are looking for a nice date spot with good food and don't mind paying a little extra you can get a really amazing meal here.
Parking: Streets are horrible both afternoon and night. Your best bet for parking is to park at the mall inside the garage. You can pay through your phone to secure a spot.”
“Fantastic menu; great atmosphere; friendly efficient staff; loved it.”
