Restaurants near Villanova

“I went to Goodness Bowls on 2/28 after wanting something healthy and fresh. I ordered their Coco-loco, Avo-Caesar wrap, and Caprese smash. All of them were DELICIOUS, the Caprese smash was my favorite because it was so fresh and just amazing. I tried the coco-loco because I had a chocolate and peanut butter craving and they delivered amazingly. I will definitely be back, today actually. The young woman who took my order was so friendly and chipper, and the store itself had a wonderful vibe to it!”

“Been coming here weekly for the past 3 years; super convenient for college students & everything is always so delicious. I love the rotating seasonal specials menu & the baristas are always so kind!”

“Our favorite pizza spot! The large pizza is really an XXL which is amazing, the fettuccine Alfredo is also a favorite. Burgers and fries, buffalo wings and cheese steaks are all very tasty. You can’t go wrong with any of the items here!”

“Stopped for an afternoon break from visiting Theatre folks. Wonderful cold brew coffee and tea as well as a s'more type treat. Delightful- may play tick tack toe later!”

“Stopped by here for a quick bite while on the road; the spot reminds me of my local college town go-to lunch spot! They had many different options from bowls to wraps and a food bar to customize your order too. The food was really good and authentic, it looks like a family owned spot based on the cooks, the food was definitely made with lots of love! The serving for the price was well worth it and the place itself was really clean!”

“Samantha was an excellent server. She mixed the best drinks and was attentive to our food orders. She skillfully offered her honest descriptions of selections and was “spot on” about taste and flavor.”

“We came for a large work dinner and everything was phenomenal. Our waiter, Greg, was incredibly personable and friendly. He knew the menu and made great recommendations. We were laughing the whole time. The food as well was fantastic--some of the best fajitas I've ever had. Will definitely be back next time we're in town!”

“Absolutely delicious food!! The beef and bok choy in particular was delicious. Bonus points for being incredibly family friendly- we were offered a high chair right away when we entered, and everyone on staff was extremely kind and sweet with our one year old daughter. We really appreciated the wonderful dinner experience and we will be back!”

“Amazing! Food was delicious and the atmosphere was beautiful, romantic and elegant! Highly recommend this restaurant. Authentic Peruvian Food!! Service was outstanding!”

“Had dinner at Springfield Bertuccis tonight. Haven't been here in a couple of years. The food was really good. Even better was our server, Katelynn. So friendly, helpful and prompt. We will be back, thanks to her wonderful service.”

“I’ve been to other Cava locations, but I must say this one is the cream of the crop. Normally my order is a bit complicated, but Zaniah, Christina, and boy Joe really looked out for us. They were personable and very funny. We will definitely be coming back! Thank you again Zaniah, Christina, and Joe you guys are the best!!!”

“I would give 6 stars if I could!!! Such a great addition to Havertown! The food is delicious, love the vibe and the service is amazing!!! The pineapple express wings were AMAZING! I saw some instagram stories saying to get them and our server Marissa (who was the sweetest by the way) sealed the deal by saying awesome they were- she was right!!! I am not a huge wing person and could have eaten 20 of them! The guac is so good and fresh; served with warm chips. My husband and I both got fajitas- shrimp and steak, soooo good! Also the cucumber marg was great, strong (not mad about that) and delicious! Adding this in because my husband is a huge sports guy- the Phillies ended and within minutes they put on March Madness games- no awkward gap where you're watching infomercials for hours (it is his pet peeve haha). So happy that Al Pastor is in town! Can't wait to return!”

“Absolutely love this place! Their salads are always fresh, great variety of dressings to choose from and service is always fast. Staff is always friendly and helpful.”

“Came here today for a date with my wife. Everything was fantastic. The place is clean and bright. The prices are fair. The staff was kind and professional. Really gave us a great authentic Colombian experience. I highly recommend coming here!”

“Tried this place out for the first time last night, first when you walk in, the atmosphere is very inviting, all the staff is super friendly and you can see by how they work, they put the same amount of attention in all the food they put out. Had their large plain square pizza and it was delicious, the crust was crispy but also soft and chewy on the inside and had great flavor, the sauce tasted amazingly fresh. Also had their hand breaded wings, and they were amazing as well, nice and crispy on the outside, but not over cooked on the inside, I feel like some places either have wings super crispy on the outside, but the inside is dry, or the outside is soggy but the inside is fine. Johnny's has hit that sweet spot in regards to the texture of their wings. Seriously consider checking out the gem of a place.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Asad's Chicken, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional, thanks in large part to the outstanding service provided by Tony. From the moment we walked in, Tony greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. His attentiveness to our needs throughout the meal was truly impressive. Not only did he ensure that our orders were taken promptly and accurately, but he also went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with our meals. Tony's friendly demeanor and professionalism undoubtedly enhanced our dining experience, and I can't wait to visit Asad's Chicken again soon. Five stars all the way!”

“Absolutely FANTASTIC Easter Brunch! Our server Alfredo was the best! Definitely ask for him! Food was spectacular - delicious filet mignon with perfect bernaise sauce, frittata fluffy, Lobster Bisque. Great price point. Can't wait for Mother's Day Brunch! Also try their Happy Hour!”

“Came here for restaurant week March 2024 and absolutely LOVED IT. Honestly all the food including dessert was top tier and a great price for lunch during restaurant week. Service was great and it's a cool place overall. Will definitely be back.”

“I saw this place on social media so wanted to check it out. You have an amazing idea here. I thought the Z thing was only for the menu but they have their employees substituting Z’s for everything. It’s funny, it’s an experience. Great customer service IMO.Y’all need to update your address or business page on google maps, this location shows one place. I saw another location on your website, this review is for the truck at 3400 Fox St. I’m not even sure what this business page address is for. Maybe this is an old location?Onto the chicken cheesesteak. I got one with fried chicken tenders inside, lettuce, and I think they put some kind of hot sauce as well. The bread this comes on is incredible. If you want anything HEALTHY, DO NOT come here, I’m reading that it’s deep fried bread. Whatever they do to it, I could’ve ate it alone. The fried chicken inside is seasoned well. It’s kinda too much and falls apart as a result but who cares, eat some first with a fork then eat the rest. I got fries here but they were just okay. I want to come back and try something else.”

“Visited for lunch on a sunny Sunday. Solid wine and beer list and fantastic food! The only downside was that there is limited seating and we were near the windows. The sun was streaming in and there was no window shade. Not only were we warm, we ate the whole meal with the sun in our eyes! I’m hoping they fix this issue bc it’s an easy fix and the food was truly delicious”

“The Couch Tomato is one of my go-to restaurants as a resident of Manayunk, with visits almost becoming a weekly tradition at this point. The tomato soup and grilled cheese combo is the best, and the atmosphere is lovely.”

“Great cheese steaks and the $ is fair. Staff are friendly, restaurant is clean and airy. Glad High Steaks is making a go of their business. Welcome to Ambler.Parking: You can use CVS, Weavers way , street.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes”

“The folks in this area were convinced that our sushi restaurants were great. They were wrong - until SU20 opened. Finally the real deal has arrived. Beautiful and generous plating, peak freshness and a creative menu of specialty rolls. Their desserts a perfection!”

“We have been to Melting Pot in KOP dozens of times and never once had a negative experience. This past Saturday was no different.Eddie was our waiter and was awesome. We ordered the 4 Course experience with the Spinach & Artichoke cheese dip and we added the Wisconsin cheddar, and with that ,we got a plentiful platter of pretzel bread, pumpernickle bread, apples, grapes , tortilla chips, broccoli, carrots & cauliflower for dipping. It's tough to have any self control with knowing you still have 3 more courses to go! We had the house salad with the house dressing (which is a honey mustard vinegarette) and the lettuce is always crispy with the freshest tomatoes , cheddar cheese, crispy croutons & sliced egg) . I could literally drink the dressing, it is so good! (lol). Then came the main course and I had the "Create Your Own" with Teriyaki Steak, Duck & Chicken and we cooked it in a Court Biullion which was very savory. During all of the courses, Eddie was always on point, making sure our drinks were full, we had enough dippers and he made some wonderful recommendations with the sauces as well as the chocolate for dessert. (we got the affectionately called "Fat Boy special" which was the Fluffernutter - chocolate , marshmallow & peanut butter) and oh my goodness, we enjoyed every last drop!!All of the portions for all 4 courses were abundant and you will never leave hungry!Eddie truly made the evening so wonderful. He is one of the most exceptional and attentive waiters we've had and really seems to enjoy what he does.”

“My hubs tried the Birria burger tonight and wow, it was so delicious. He couldn’t finish it but it will make a tasty lunch tomorrow. Love that they are mixing up their menu a little bit. I had the pappardelle which was great too, although it is so heavy. I might suggest reducing the amount of burrata and adding some vegetable to balance out the dish. We really needed some good food tonight after a few underwhelming experiences recently and StoneRose came through for us!”

“Cashier very friendly great and server was very nice food was great jelly donuts love them all they need to get in the donut bin is cream fill donuts ? or custard donuts just saying lol we will be back come all the way from Show&”
