“My 8 year old grandson described the food as “a taste of the gates of heaven”. He wasn’t wrong. ♥️“

“Andrew welcomed us in and we were the only Ones in the restaurant on a Friday morning. He helped us parse through the menu and pick some items. We ordered the kidney beans and cassava leaf via his recommendation and both plates came with a generous platter of rice. It was enough for four people to get full our total bill was less than 30, I really great experience an amazing food. Next time I want to come back and try the fufu soho.“

“Csar salad and salmon were So good and my husband said the roast bee was great. The dressing was real CeSR dressing Md I loved it.“

“I stumbled upon this restaurant for brunch and I was pleasantly surprised. Their portions are generous and the food is delicious. Their drinks are also a must if you like to pair a little bubbly with your brunch. I recall the staff being so kind and allowing my friends and I stay as long as we wanted without making us feel rushed. Great place with an eclectic feel!“

“It was a really nice vibe and great food“

“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.“

“Celebrated our 5th anniversary here tonight while visiting Philly. Beautiful ambiance and impeccable service. Rebecca our server was kind, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make our experience great. We did the Chef’s which was seasonal, thoughtful and delicious. Each serving was creative and intriguing. Compliments to Chef Kevin McWilliams. If you live in or near the Philly area please give this place a try!“

“I loved everything about Her Place! The atmosphere felt so intimate, and cozy like we were visiting a friend’s home for dinner. I appreciated the detail/thought put into getting all of the guest to greet each other, even the chef explaining every dish to us as a group. I felt so comfortable that I even yelled out bye to everyone as I was leaving out the front door, like they were my friends! Lol I appreciated the hospitality from all of the ladies and it made my birthday weekend feel special! I’ve said so much just on the vibe that I didn’t even get to mention the food is SPECTACULAR! Oh, those chocolate chip cookies at the end, oh and the home made from scratch Chex Mix needs to be packaged up and sold in stores. Let me market it guys. I want to help out! Lol“

“Tim is the friendliest bartender ever!!!!“

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

“Best brunch in Philly! Everything is delicious!“

“Amazing little bar with a great beer selection and excellent bar food. The wings were among the best I’ve ever had (and I’m from Alberta - we take wings seriously!) knowledgeable server and very friendly. They put a lot of care into the food and drink of this bar and it shows.“

“Our server, Liam was exceptional. The young lady receptionist and young gentleman who greeted us were most kind and accommodating. Felt like we belonged. Food was excellent and a good variety. Seems going out to eat nowadays is getting more and more expensive. And comparing to other restaurant pricing... It was fair for $ value. We will return.“

“Me and the love of my life recently got engaged there and it was bifar the most beautiful and elegant restaurant we have been too, everything was absolutely perfect and Sarah our server was absolutely perfect in every way and I am greatful to have had the pleasure of meeting her. We do plan to come back for a date night. #LovefromBaltimore“

“It’s a nice small area in the city! I definitely wanted to try a meal that night that was culturally different from my usual orders and this did it! This place does a great job of making you feel like you’re in the European city and service was very friendly!Food choices are definitely different but great to experience“

“It has become a Mother's Day tradition to dine here. We usually go for brunch but decided on dinner this year. Food was great. servings were larger than expected. We ordered a third appetizer to share, and it was almost too much. But glad we did because they were all delicious. Chip and his team never disappoint.“

“We chose outdoor seating reservations. It was rainy and chilly, but they had the table beautifully set, it was covered, and we had heat lamps. Our waiter was completely delightful, and I would come back just for him! The food was creative, unusual and delicious. Beautiful presentation. One could tell how much pride and care, the owners, chefs put into the food. I look forward to returning soon.“

“my friends and I had a great dinner here. Great food & service I highly recommend this great restaurant in the park“

“Tonight we had an amazing dinner at Seasons 52 in King of Prussia. Our server Jackie was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make our dinner special. I mentioned a few exciting things happening in my life and she made sure to bring out a special dessert and toast for us. I really appreciated the effort and kindness she showed. Thank you so much Jackie, we really appreciated it :) - Kaitlyn C.“

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

“Great atmosphere, GREAT food selection and taste and service was awesome.....thanks Max!“

“Went last week and had an amazing experience especially the assistance we received from our waitress and the pastry chef. I had the one of the special entrees of the day- duck breast and since I’m not drinking, their lavender lemonade was both cute and tasty. A little tart, but very lemonadey. My husband got a ton a stuff that I don’t remember, but he enjoyed every drink, appetizer ( it was a tuna bonbon special) and entree. I’ve driven past this place for years, so it was great to finally pop in. Added bonus, located in northwest Philly which is such an amazing part of the city.“

“Great menu, nice bar scene!“

“I recently worked as a photographer at this bar/restaurant space that was being used for a wedding. There is a small space in the back thats great for pictures and small parties. They also have a bar upstairs and ample parking across the street. The appetizers were delicious and creative. Its a nice venue to hold a small event or to have drinks/dinner.“

“We loved the drinks and the food. Bubbles and Berries martini, Lobster Bisque, Teriyaki Salmon and Carrot Cake. It was wonderful!“

“Had dinner at Bar Sera for the first time in 2023-06-16 for a 7pm reservation. We got seated right away, not waiting at all. All our drinks and food came out on time and was absolutely delicious. We had the best server named Rachel. She had many tables but still was amazing, very attentive and would engage in conversation with us as. She made the dining experience so much better than any restaurant I’ve been to in a while. The food overall was amazing. I highly recommend this place. If you can, ask for Rachel, she won’t disappoint.“

“On Point Bistro is where brunch dreams come true and dinner is a delicious dance of flavors. Imagine sipping on a cup of La Colombe coffee, so good it’ll make your taste buds tango. Dive into their famous Challah French Toast, a dish so decadent, it’s like a morning hug from your taste buds. And let’s not forget the Huevos Rancheros, a masterpiece on a plate that’ll have you shouting “Olé!” with every bite. This BYOB spot is the neighborhood’s culinary stage, where every meal is a show-stopper and you’re always the VIP guest. So grab your favorite bottle and your appetite, because at On Point Bistro, every dish is on point!“

“Awesome place! Highly recommend…great beer selection and tremendous grub!“

“My boyfriend and I stopped here for lunch on our way to La Push. The crab dip was hands down the best I’ve eaten. I was a tad disappointed they were out of the fresh albacore tuna melt but the blackened shrimp tacos I ordered instead were delicious. My boyfriend enjoyed the fish and chips. Miranda, our server, was friendly, prompt, and very helpful with both the drink menu and food options. We’ll definitely be returning the next time we’re in Port Angeles.“

“We were very excited to try this spot and finally made it on a Saturday to celebrate our anniversary, which I noted when I made the reservation. Overall our experience was good, but not as good as we had hoped. The vibe and decor is absolutely gorgeous (although we do recommend that they dim the picture lights over the art, as it was very bright and reflective). We had the 4 course chef’s menu and every single dish was really beautiful - this was one of the standout elements, as all the plates looked like art themselves. The flavors were not bad but some of the dishes were on the bland side, while others were quite delicious. We started with the hamachi crudo and endive salad - both were okay. Then the crab bisque and charred octopus - the bisque was the winner. For mains we ordered the lamb loin and sea bass. The lamb dish came out first but we waited about 5 minutes for the bass to come, and it seemed as though the lamb was waiting in the kitchen for a while because it was mostly room temperature by the time I started to eat it. The flavors were good but mild. The seabass was delicious. Also really enjoyed the love cake for dessert. So, overall, a 4-course menu for $70 is a great price compared to the individually-priced dishes. While not every dish was amazing, the meal had some high notes and I really appreciated how beautiful they were. I was a little let down by parts of the meal and disappointed they didn’t acknowledge our anniversary, but overall I think this place was worth the visit and I will likely go back to try it again and explore some of the other dishes.“

“Looking for a place to grab a cold beer, burger, and/or sushi? We'll look no further the food and service at Guppy's are top notch w/ very reasonable prices. They even have their own sushi chef and specials weekly. Lori and get squad are the best!“

“This is the second year in a row we had my birthday lunch here, and it did not disappoint!! Such a great atmosphere, delicious food, amazing cocktails, and fabulous service!“

“Wonderful food. Had an awesome server. Wish I could remember her name. All of the staff were so friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Came here for a Valentine’s Day tasting menu and was blown away. My partner picked the restaurant and I went in blind, knowing nothing. Incredible experience. The food was outstanding and made right in front of us. Max is a wonderful chef who worked magic to provide an incredible tasting menu by himself. Will be going back, and bringing friends.A very clear example of “you get what you pay for”.“

“Everything was awesome.Only down side was by aunts green beans were like warm.Everything wise, AMAZING.lobster ravioli, crab cakes, salmon, drinks, oysters. Service was great. Hostess , waitress... Loved it!I'm VERY picky about my food.“

“Wonderful restaurant! Best Blueberry pancakes I've had in years.“

“If you’re looking for a yummy brunch spot, you found it! You can’t go wrong with any dish you order. It literally all sounds and looks so delicious! I ordered the avocado toast (needed something light) and my husband got a daily special. Everything was so good! I would say go early but I’m not sure that would even help getting you seated faster but definitely plan on a little wait for a table. The bar is first come first serve - we were able to walk in a grab a seat quickly.“

“This place is fabulous--the view alone sets it apart from any other venue in Philadelphia. The ambience is perfect--our hostess, Savannah, made us feel warm and welcome, the live music (a group called Dream x Dream) was jazzy and fun, and played at a level where we were able to carry on a conversation without having to shout over the music. Really enjoyed our drinks and apps--we'll be back!“

“Great place, great community, great food“

“Stopped here for dinner tonight and enjoyed it! The hot roast beef was very tasty, and so was the rice pudding! My husband and I split an order of chili cheese fries, which were okay. The atmosphere was a little lacking- the place felt old and a little run-down, and everything was served on small plastic plates, which was a little cheesy. That being said, id still go back if I was really craving a roast beef sandwich!“

“Great place to hang out with friends for conversation and watching sports. Good variety of appetizers and drinks.“

“Went to new location . It’s a lovely setting and the food was outstanding. Delicious tasting and unique presentations. The only downside is most of the portions seem to have gotten much smaller and costs up. But I guess that’s the case everywhere these days.“

“Excellent service. Our waiter (don't remember his name but had a pony tail) was the best he was very attentive, kind and overall very welcoming. The food was delicious we tried 3 of their popular dishes along with the soup of the day and a Cesar salad.. everything was delicious, full of flavor.“

“Great atmosphere. Awesome staff. Of course, great drinks!“

“D. Burger and fries at $25 extremely overpriced. Otherwise everything was fine“
