“With an ever-changing menu, I know that no matter what vegan dish I order from Primary it’s always going to be exciting and delicious. Many of the dishes have kept me up at night from the french toast to the cheesesteak and the jackfruit medianoche.Chef Mark has always been hospitable and attentive, and you can tell how much passion he has for his plates and his community. This restaurant is truly a gem in Philly and the team behind its magic deserve all the success. If you’re looking for a place to try, you cannot go wrong by visiting Primary.“
“Went here with friends and had a great time. Loved the Korean gochujang wings. They were so crispy and the texture was great; not to mention the sauce is addictive. I got the smash burger and added long hots—it was delicious! Their fries are also super crispy. The cocktails were also very good. I can’t wait to come back.Vegetarian options: The menu is all vegan. So happy to have a place with so many options. We also met some non-vegans there who were also trying them for the first time and they loved it.“
“Delicious falafel! I got a sandwich with fries in it and really enjoyed it. The picture when ordering online made it seem like it was on the smaller side and I can assure you it was not! It really filled me up for lunch. Would definitely recommend for a fairly quick bite!“
“Sat at the pass on a Tuesday for a birthday dinner. Staff was so nice and accommodated a tree nut allergy (informed us they could replace cashew-based sauce in carrots for tahini, told us dishes to avoid). Everything was so fun and delicious. We loved the blistered carrots. My favorite dish was the fresh house-made tofu-- it blew me away. My partner's favorite dish was the parsnip piccata!!!! We were so impressed by how well the parsnip worked. Vegetable magic!!!Thank you for a sweet and memorable evening :-)“
“This place offers some of the most delicious and incredible vegan/vegetarian items ever!! Jeff, the owner/chef, is super creative and talented! I had the yuba hoagie, which was so divine that I finished the whole thing! If you love garlic, the toum dipping sauce that comes with the za'atar fries is unreal! I also had the cauliflower salad with the tahini dressing. The combo was unmatched! Oh, another one of my favorites is the patty melt!! Andy makes them like no other!Go try them out before they close! But hopefully enough people go so they don't close!!!“
“Had a great time at Tattooed Mom. Apart from the eclectic decor, the service was very prompt and attentive. The drinks were inexpensive and very good. Tried the Cosmo Cloud which I would definitely recommend. For food, the pepper parm fries are a must! Wish I lived closer because I'd definitely be a regular.“
“The menu was so varied--so many choices of vegan food (not just the fake meat variety). We enjoyed the brussels sprouts, beet salad, focaccia, flatbread--all outstanding. We didn't care so much for one pasta dish with sweet potato--pasta a bit dry and chewy and seasoning a bit bland. It was a Saturday evening so quite full and service was uneven probably because of that. The background music was quite loud, particularly the bass line. I could hear to talk but I found the music distracting me from enjoying the food. But I think younger people have a different relationship to monotonous base lines and find it makes the place lively. I was delighted to find another vegan restaurant, just disappointed that the ambience wasn't good for me.“
“I chose the vedge experience to try 3 dishes and desert for $65/person. All the plates were not only uniquely thought through and delicious, but also presented like works of art. I really enjoyed the creative balance of flavors they used from only plant sources that even mimicked non-vegetarian dishes I've had before. Menu rotates seasonal so I will be returning soon and is well accomodating for gluten free patrons. An experience well worth trying“
“I’ve gone in twice for birthday cakes. I’m horribly last-minute, but luckily they always have already-made birthday cakes for sale which are DELICIOUS. They’re super flavorful without being too much, and they’re beautiful to look at. Plus they can write a message on the cake very quickly. I’m a fan!“
“This is our favorite restaurant in the city, possibly in the world. No matter what your diet is, you will be amazed by the delicious and creative plant-based offerings. Rachel's immense talent in the kitchen is surpassed only by her warmth and generosity as a host, and the service of her staff is equally exceptional. If you ever have a chance to experience a meal at Miss Rachel's Pantry, I will personally guarantee your complete satisfaction!Bon appetite!Vegetarian options: vegan everything“
“Always wanted to try this place and didn’t realize I was walking right past it yesterday.Amazing! The banana mixture is super smooth, the guy was so nice and friendly, and it’s a mom and pop small business- support them for sure!!!Really cool selection of choices that are not the usual run of the mill.Will be back and you should try this place for sure!“
“Years ago, my family would frequent The Tasty and always had a great experience. As time progressed, my family changed, and I wasn't sure if I could walk through the door without memories and emotions flooding me. Well, the magic of The Tasty guided me through to make this experience as wonderful as those from the past. Thank you for providing exceptional food, amazing service, and an awesome atmosphere. Until we meet again...“
“The outdoor seating area in the rear of the restaurant gives you the feel of hanging out in someone's personal garden hideaway.Parking: The restaurant is located in a very busy section of the city, very close to both I-95 and 76 highway systems.“
“I've been trying to eat more plant-based for health reasons. I go in skeptical eating anything plant-based/vegan at most places. This place did not disappoint. I've had the breakfast pita and the veggie burger wrap - both surprisingly good. Just wish it was a little closer to my house. If it were, I'd definitely eat here more.“
“My fiancé and I came here to eat and I must say that the aesthetics here are so cute! The staff are friendly and their food is delicious! For apps: I recommend trying the steamed pork gyoza and Italian egg roll. For tacos: I recommend the tofu taco. It’s very crispy and moist. The ramen is good as well. For drinks I recommend the jasmine lemon green tea. We definitely would come back! :)“
“20th Street carries the torch for Philly vegan pizzerias, following in the tradition of Gianna’s & Blackbird of yesteryear - except 20th Street does it best. Even writing this review & considering the Haymaker or Pepperoni slices, my mouth waters & belly growls! HahaThis is sourdough artisanal vegan pizza at its best, try any selection from the pies at the counter, you will not be disappointed!Vegetarian options: Vegan menu - plant based restaurant“
“The best BLT in the world. Super cute clean restaurant. I came with my obnoxious dogs and baby and she was so sweet took my order and brought it out to me. I LOVE this place ♥️♥️♥️Vegetarian options: Menu is veganKid-friendliness: My baby and I (plus dogs) were on a walk and stopped for take away.“
“Giving 5 stars because Dotty's is excellent at what they do... Even if many of the flavors are over the top and I don't actually like them. LoLI'm really loving the savory doughnuts though! I didn't think that they would be as good as they have been. :-)“
“So happy this place opened up! The food is amazing, and I'm not vegan. I recommend pretty much everything, but their soups are most excellent. As is the garbanzo burger with vegan cheese!But turn up the heat, PLEASE! It's way too cold there to eat comfortably for lunch. We ate and left fast. Y'all need to come a bit early and warm it up!“
“I couldn't wait to dig in and it was not a disappointment. I couldnt even speak words after the first few bites. "Mmmmmm mmmm mmm!! ??☺️" is all i could say. The food is extremely delicious and flavorful. I'll have to try their other vegan dishes! I had the Vegan Fried Chicken with plantains and Vegan Sweet Chilli Wings with veggies.“
“Must have walked past this little cafe a dozen times going to the big corner cafe - never again!The vibe and service at Gleaners is disarmingly pleasant and the coffee was just damn good!The restaurant guys say this is the best coffee shop in the hood, they are correct“
“I've had two different meals here so far, and both were very good. I guess my only semi-gripe would be wanting more sauce. The staff that was present at both visits have been amazing, as well. Vegan and gluten-free, friendly to the max.Vegetarian options: Vegan kitchen with no meat or animal products used.Dietary restrictions: Everything is clearly labeled, and substitutions are available in any item.Parking: Both times I went, there was plenty of available parking close by the entrances.“
“This is some of the best pad see ew I've had in a long time. The waiting staff was friendly and checked in on us enough to make sure we had what we needed, but not so much that they distracted from our conversation. I'll definitely be back!“
“Loved the Pumpkin Chai donut! It's the perfect fall treat without being too oily or sweet. I was surprised by the texture, as it was super soft almost like a milk bread loaf. The Boston Cream donut was also a pleasant surprise - I anticipated the cream to be really sweet, but it was actually the perfect level of sweetness that complemented the chocolate frosting.“
“My mother and I visited this cute spot for our morning warm hugs in a cup. I ordered the Chai latte with almond milk in the ginger flavor and it twas DELIGHTFUL. The service from the staff was swift and sweet.I also noticed some vegan goodies on the menu I may have to try while I am in town ?“
“I found this while searching for vegan food in the area and was like how did I not see this sooner? I was really wanting falafel lately and was going to make it but was very busy. And what made it even better was that they have vegan rugelach! They are one of my favorites and I haven't had them in years. I was excited about that.I ordered the falafel bowl, shawarma fries, extra hummus and two orders of the chocolate rugelach. I was so busy that night and ravenous. It all was so delicious. The falafel very nicely flavoured and yummy. The salad was very fresh. The hummus is delicious and the fries were addictive. I then made some dark coffee to go along with the rugelach. They are chocolate and very delicious. I then had them for the next morning with coffee. I want to try the tahini shake and bourekas next time and definitely more rugelach.“
“Not really a vegan dude but considered to eat healthy today&tried this spot outBlack owned which was a plus for me.I got the meat lovers burger&a tossed salad.Burger was cooked to perfection..roll was soft&tasty..salad was fresh&crispy PLEASE GO HERE&SUPPORT THIS NICE BLACK WOMAN&did I say the price very affordable..a definite place I would visit again&again&again..can't wait to explore the rest of the menu“
“Stopped in for breakfast and coffees when catching up with friends. Coffee was excellent, but the standout items were the vegan breakfast sandwiches and baked goods. Soundtrack was fun- spent awhile trying to see who could ID the songs first.“
“It’s great to have fresh and healthy juice drinks in East Falls. The food is made to order here and really delicious. I love the atmosphere and the service is warm and friendly. The owner is really sweet too and I hope this business stays in Philly / East falls for many years. I recommend ALL their smoothies and juice / vegetable drinks and the burgers and sweet potato fries are the Best!“
“What happens when a super awesome food truck becomes a restaurant? You get creative food, fast service, and a vibe like a familiar hangout from your youth. We got a world tour of tacos and Vietnamese ice coffee, and something from the special board too- way too much food but couldn't resist- had to pack it in and roll out of there. Want to come back soon to try more- everything sounded so good!!!“
“Cozy little cafe on Passyunk Ave. We stopped in to get out of the rain on a Saturday afternoon. The sandwiches we had were excellent! I particularly enjoyed the cucumber and goat cheese sandwich. The lattes were decent. The service was attentive as well. We would return.“
“Nestled in the vibrant streets of Philadelphia, Charlie Was A Sinner. is a haven for those seeking a culinary experience that transcends expectations. With its inviting ambiance and innovative plant-based cuisine, this restaurant captivates the senses and leaves a lasting impression.Let's dive into the star of the show: the food. Each dish at Charlie Was A Sinner. is a work of art, meticulously crafted to delight even the most discerning palate. From the first bite to the last, every flavor sings in perfect harmony, showcasing the creativity and skill of the culinary team.However, I must address a notable aspect of our dining experience—the service. While the staff was friendly and accommodating, there were some shortcomings that impacted the overall enjoyment of our meal. In particular, our server seemed lacking in knowledge of the menu, unable to provide accurate information about certain dishes' ingredients. This became especially problematic when attempting to accommodate dietary restrictions at our table. Rather than consulting the chef or kitchen staff for clarification, our server seemed uncertain and unable to provide the necessary assistance.Despite this hiccup, I must commend the kitchen for their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our dietary needs once the issue was brought to their attention. Their dedication to ensuring a positive dining experience did not go unnoticed and ultimately salvaged what could have been a disappointing situation.In conclusion, while Charlie Was A Sinner. excels in its culinary offerings, there is room for improvement in the realm of service, particularly in staff knowledge and communication. Nonetheless, I remain impressed by the restaurant's commitment to delivering exceptional plant-based cuisine and look forward to returning for another memorable dining experience.“
