Restaurants in Philadelphia

“I think I probably have had just about everything on your menu, and I loved everything. I also like that Stina is not pretentious.”

“IT WAS AMAZING WTF ELSE DO YOU NEED?”

“Really good drinks!
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”

“Great restaurant - highly recommended”

“First we heard about it from friends, than we watched the Netflix documentary and later we decided to check it out and we were surprised by been hosted by chef Cristina!! No reservations and no waiting line when we got there on a Sunday for lunch.
We had the best experience in a long time and the lamb tacos were amazing. Perfect food, ambience and great service. Price very reasonable.”

“This is my new favorite spot! The food is incredible and the drink menu is on point!”

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.”

“The Food was Fresh ad Incredible”

“Short Rib - Take out, grill yourself. Super easy and delicious.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Awesome food and excellent service I had a pasta night special!
kale & ricotta gnocchi, marinara, fennel, serrano jamon, broccolini comes w/ garlic bread & side caesar salad which was amazing. I highly recommend this place”

“The food was wonderful as the service was fast. I couldn’t believe the check. Extremely reasonable for all you get. I’d definitely recommend Kanella to anyone”

“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.

Dietary restrictions: Accommodated pescatarian”

“First time there, excellent food.”

“The pizza was phenomenal!!!.”

“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!”

“Fabulous on all levels! What a treat!”

“Not child friendly need more option”

“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.”

“So good! The best bread before dinner ever! My favorite crab cake now and the hashbrown potatoes were amazing! We will be back!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Great old school flair and a must go when in south Philly. Great food and atmosphere. Tough parking though hard to find. But worth the wait. One of the best little italys I have been too and Chicago's Taylor street can't gold a candle to it.”

“Great food, hospitality and portions. The tables were filled and they were able to still get us a table outside. The plov is the best and great portions. Thank you for your honest service. ”

“Quick service and delicious food!”

“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!”

“Matzo ball soup is the best I've ever had. I only eat it from here! The open face turkey platter is so delicious I always get it from here. This is me and my mother's lunch date every time we go shopping or doctors appt we stop here to eat!”

“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!”

“Super great service. Breakfast is amazing anytime of day.”

“Prices are very reasonable. Staff is very friendly. I’m deaf and both windows were good at getting me my order and food. I’ll be back!”

“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!”

“Very friendly/helpful staff & the store is immaculate”

“My new favorite spot. Blows the other 2 popular ones out the water”

“Stopped by here late one night to pick up a cookie and some water and had a pretty decent experience. The service was great as a whole, I would definitely come back again.”

“The best fried chicken in Allentown is now krispy krunchy .. and great price, the service is on point always and Sata is fast to give the order . You must try it asap”

“Service Amazing!! Food Amazing!!
I got the Sammy, Honeysuckle Latte and 1/2 dozen Pasteis de Nata. Got there at 9:45 on a Sunday and they were out of the Bolas. Darn! They do get busy, so plan on waiting 15-45min. But they have your order out pretty fast once you order. Very efficient kitchen.
I’ll be going earlier next time because there will definitely be a next time and another next time etc…
Highly Recommend!!”

“Great food, good service and reasonable prices”

“Food so good I can’t wait to try the rest of the menu. Delicious drinks. Definitely coming back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“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!!”

“Great atmosphere, friendly service and tasty food.”

“Enjoyed this small spot! Was pretty tasty, there was a bit of a wait but was worth it! I wish there was more indoor seating but it makes sense for the space! Would try again! The Miga Maximus was a highlight!”

“Awesome experience! Great food! Excellent service!”

“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.”

“Get the sorbetto! Great food, great service.”

“SUPERB - great coffee, worth supporting!”

“It was a really nice vibe and great food”

“can't wait to go back hard to describe.. it was unique.. everything we ordered was so elevated.. 5 star service.. best dirty martini I ever had .. this restaurant is a winner.. get the cheese plate dessert”

“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!”

“Outstanding cheesesteaks. The variety is spectacular. The meat melts in your mouth. The bread is fresh and delicious. Was in town for just two days but had lunch there both days. You want a cheesesteak? You will not be disappointed.”

“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.”

“Excellent Food & Amazing Service 👍👍”

“The food and service were outstanding and the ambiance was perfect for our Anniversary dinner.”

“Excellent friendly service and some truly remarkable food. Highly recommend.”

“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! 🦋”

“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!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Ordered from here tonight and all I can say is that it was absolutely delicious!!! The sauce was amazing, chicken was crispy but n outside and tender in the inside. We will def order from here again!”

“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.”

“This place goes above and beyond truly!! Made my first time Philly experience so amazing, the food and service is A1, honestly, and you can TELL everything is made FRESH!!”

“A very good restaurant. I enjoyed the food.”

“Great covered outdoor patio along with tasty food - perfect combination.”

“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!”

“Such a cute spot with amazing coffee! I have grabbed to go coffee from here quite a few times and it doesn’t disappoint. Anything from drip to a cappuccino has been amazing. It is a little bit on the pricier side but the tip is included and the staff is always nice (I don’t mind paying extra for quality coffee)!
The space is quite small (2-3 tables) so I would recommend taking to go unless you’re lucky enough to snag a table (it is full particularly in the mornings). I can tell there are dedicated regulars who go here and I can see why!”

“The server was Great and personable. The wings in Flambo sauce were tasty and especially nice appetizer. Beef curry was tender and well prepared.”

“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.”

“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”

“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.”

“Unique food, cozy, candlelit atmosphere. Our group enjoyed it tremendously. Highly recommend.”

“Over the top experience. Everything was perfect.”

“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!”

“You will not be disappointed, from the ambiance, the friendly, professional service and the delicious food!”

“Cupcake- Lemon pound cake with raspberry filling and raspberry buttercream on top!”

“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.”

“Fantastic dining experience! The staff was exceptional and the food was out of this world. The tasting menu was fantastic and the atmosphere was perfect.”

“The Omakase is a must! So is the black cod 🤌🏾”

“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!”

“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.”

“Staff are friendly service is great. Pizza is excellent. Got a shirt too. Highly recommend.”

“Best pretzel I have ever tasted and at a great price!”

“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!”

“Delicious weekend menu! Get there early it gets crowded, but super friendly!!”

“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.”

“This place is a step below heaven! The pound cakes or bars, as they call them, are incredible to the pallid! We only get down to their store maybe once every few years! It’s always a delight to STOCK up with $200 worth of cakes (they last forever)!”

“Food was delicious! Good vibe!”

“Great coffees and super friendly owner/ baristas!”

“Nile Cafe in Germantown offers affordable vegan Soul food with big flavor! The modest interior is lightly decorated and sparsely seated. There were maybe six two-chaired tables. Outdoor seating options are available. Walking in, locals cycled in, ordered, waited, and cycled out constantly. All the food, served in to-go containers, was fantastic. The duck in gravy and the jerk chicken stole the show before we had the dessert. After being impressed, we dug deeper into the menu. The coffee ice cream was super creamy and the cake was moist and decadent. Nile Cafe is special. Although there isn't much on the menu we didn't try, the food was definitely worth a revisit. I might just stop in for dessert when I'm around.”

“Listennnnn! those mini Sweet Potato pies were to die for!!! I'll be back soon! ❤️ 🔥”

“Fresh and light with just the right amount of spice on a hot summer Day!”

“Great service, food is very delicious.”

“This place is great. There circle pizza is good, but I think there square pizza is better. The dough becomes a bit fluffy, so it is rich but not excessively so. I normally don't like White pizzas but the square white pizza here is one of my go to orders. The cheese steaks here are also excellent. The quality of the meat is quite a bit higher than typical. I don't eat a lot of cheese steaks but this would be the place I would get them.”

“My wife and I love The Saloon Restaurant.....the food is outstanding and the atmosphere is great. We eat at the Saloon when ever we are in the Philadelphia area or any where near Philly!!! IT IS OUR FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN PHILADELPHIA AND THE UNITED STATES, FOR THAT MATTER!!! IF YOU ARE IN PHILLY, DON'T MISS THE SALOON!!! DEM”

“One of the best places to be after work anyday”

“The server was Great and personable. The wings in Flambo sauce were tasty and especially nice appetizer. Beef curry was tender and well prepared.”

“Been coming to Sals for my cold cuts because its fresh. The mac n cheese is really good . seafood platters were always well proportioned and with good flavor .ill send a pic after my order arrives I'm ordering the scallops and a dungeon crab platter”

“Amazing service and the best Polish products!”

“Good pizza, thin crust but tasty. Good chicken tenders and great garlic bread !”

“Love the food they NEVER disappoint :)”

“My experience with the Waterfall Room was outstanding! It was a pleasure working with Crystal. She answered all of my emails quickly, calmed all of my anxiety, and came through with a party that people will be talking about for a long time. The room was set up beautifully; the food was delicious; and the staff was very attentive during the entire evening. Sal, the m'aitre d' was fantastic! He stayed the entire evening making sure that everything ran smoothly and all of our needs were met. I highly recommend the folks at Swan Caterers if you are celebrating an occasion that will be remembered for a long time!”

“Great spot for pizza you will never expect. The food and service is excellent. Will continue to come here and definitely recommend.”

“I love Miss.Kim and Mr.John I known them from when my daughter was little when they used to work across the street. They are the best people to deal with when you go shopping.”

“My Loup is an absolute gem in Philadelphia. The atmosphere and overall vibe were spot on - chic and inviting. From the moment we arrived, the staff was outstanding : attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The menu was quite creative and the combinations of flavor really stood out! One of the chefs, Sage, even came out to speak to us and walk us through the entire menu. That personal touch made the evening feel more special. My Loup is more than a meal, it's an experience for sure! We can't wait to go back.”

“This store,the people who own it are the kindess ,friendly,genuinely groups people,they care about our neighborhood,the are a staple in this community,,they all are one of a kind !!”

“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.”

“Tastes great! Service is very nice, owner is really friendly...Would recommend”

“nice place i like it. the steaks are good”

“We had an amazing time here! The French cuisine was outstanding, with a variety of options. Would highly recommend to visitors or locals looking for top-notch French food.”

“The cheese steak was great! But at this restaurant you order at one window and pick up at another. They are very busy so plan ahead. Also no parking available so plan on street parking and walking a few blocks”

“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".”

“Colin and the staff do an amazing job and all clearly care about the restaurant. The drinks are delicious, and the food is divine. Highly recommended.”

“Incredible food and service. Definitely would come here again”

“Loved it!”

“Awesome experience! Loved the atmosphere, food was spectacular, service was amazing. Best Anniversary date ever, can’t wait to return to Philadelphia and this will definitely be on our to do list.”

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu”

“True Philly CHEESE STEAK! WIZWIT!”

“ATMOSPHERE WAS GREAT FOOD AND STRAWBERRY 🍓 TEQUILA”

“LISTEN UP CLOSELY PHILLY!! YOU HAVE A NEW CHEESESTEAK KING IN THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE!! DOWN HOME DINER WOW IS ALL I CAN SAY… BEST CHEESESTEAK IN PHILLY/JERSEY RITE HERE INSIDE THE THE READING TERMINAL MARKET AND THE WORKERS ARE ALL SO NICE!!!”

“The food was excellent. The best burger I’ve had in a while. The staff were friendly and helpful and patient with the new customers (me) that wandered in. Wish I could give it more than 5 stars.”

“Party of 10 this AM. Pam was the BEST! Food/service was awesome!!! Thanks Bookers!”

“Lamb Saag was delicious. Paratta bread was buttery and flaky. The coffee was good too!”
