I love Pleasure Platters! Everything is good. My favorite is the Lobster Bisque, it's full of seafood and always delicious.

Alright, let's take a trip to get the lowdown on Pleasure Platters, a seafood spot on the north side of Philly! I've been following them on social media for some time. I had really high hopes because all of the reviews were so great but since I'm rarely on this side of the city, it took a while for me to check them out. Is it worth the hype or not? I got my chance to taste and see. Please keep in mind this is based on my and my mom's taste buds. You may love it. First off, let's talk vibes. Pleasure Platters is a neighborhood joint. It is not a hang-out spot, you will not take your boo for a fancy dinner. However, they do have an option for a date night meal, if you are looking for something to have a nice night in for two. The fact that they've upgraded from someone's kitchen to an actual building is a solid flex though, gotta give 'em props for that. Mother in the front was nice. She did her best to take care of everyone. The staff was also nice. They get a plus for that. Especially since, some brown family businesses get bad rep for bad customer service. I can say nothing but good things about the customer service! Now, onto the main event: the food. We snagged ourselves a crab leg platter, and let's just say it didn't exactly set our taste buds on fire. Based on everything I saw on social media I was expecting more. It's like, you take a bite expecting fireworks, but all you get is a sparkler on a rainy day. It was ok but it didn't make us do that oohweee dance. You know...the one you get when you take a bite of granny's cornbread, mac n cheese with aunty's collards! Yeah, that dance. But hold up, wait a minute, there was something that had some yummy in it! There's a shining star and it goes by the name of seafood slaw. Seriously, Mom got some crackers and went to town. So, in conclusion, we will travel for food but Mom and I would not trek back over there just to get a platter, however, we might get some of that seafood slaw if we happen to be in the area.

I know seafood establishments are popping up all over the place now, and I can say I think I've just about tried every one of them. I must say this has been one of the best ones that I've had thus far. The crabs' legs were fresh, the shrimp was a nice size and not overcooked ?, the broccoli was nice and crisp, the corn was amazing, the potatoes was just right and the overall seasoning was perfect ??. And the customer service was excellent. Will definitely recommend this restaurant as one of the best seafood spots in Philly. Hat's off to the cook, owner, and staff.
The food is delicious. My 2go spot for seafood. Sea slaw ?, can't stop eating it, that good?

Well well...customer service great....food great...price great!!! Everything was good..from the fries to the crab legs,corn potatoes and broccoli!! We will be back..keep up the good work!!!
The shrimp alfredo was bland. There was no seasoning at all. The crab, shrimp, mussels platter was just ok. The shrimp were more colossal. I ordered online. It said that it would be done in an hr. I got there 10 mins after it should have been done and still had to wait a half hr. No apologies.

Food was amazing, customer service was great. Very nice and clean establishment I will be back for another red bag!
Worth the Drive! I placed an online order and you know how food sometimes doesn’t look like the photos online…. Well, that’s not the case for Pleasure Platters! What you see, IS WHAT YOU GET. Crab clusters were juicy and seasoned well. My platter came with broccoli, corn, and potatoes. This is an ultimate flex on the competition, who often charging upwards of $12 for veggies! I also ordered, the Lobster Bisque, it’s literally to die for- best that you’ll ever taste. Outside of the food being good, the owner and her staff are kind. The atmosphere of the store is relaxed and you are always greeted when you come in. Great customer service always elevates the experience. Go visit the store! Order in-store or order ahead online, like I did! They also have delivery services available!

I went 2 days ago & I will say it was an ok experience. There was no one there as far as customers. I saw the owner & her mother. They were very very lovely people. Now the reason I gave 3 stars is because it looked good when I took it out. Once I started to eat it the fried shrimp, which was colossal were not hot & were soggy with no taste. Well no seasoning, the owner said they came seasoned. Then when I ate my corn it wasn't done neither was the broccoli. The potato was fine & so was the 3 dungeonees crab legs & the snow leg. They didn't have any seasoning on them. Altogether it was $82 oh & I had the green mussels. I dont like the green mussels . I had two & I gave the rest of everything to my daughters. Oh the seafood was not hot either. I don't live far so I don't know why everything was cold. Everything was wrapped up good.
