Chyna made sure we got our drinks, food and ice cream in a timely manner so that we could make it back to work on time. She was very understanding and kind. You are lucky to have her on your team!!“

“Had my husband’s 50th surprise party there in January and it was amazing. The staff were great and the food was delicious. All of our friends keeping talking about this epic party!! Thank you for all your help!“

“I order from you guys every week just about. I really loved your plan pizza, but you seemed to have changed it. It used to be saucy on top, and now it’s just all cheese. your plain pizza was my FAVORITE. Please consider going back to what it used to be. No one else in the area had a pizza like that.“

“IT WAS AMAZING WTF ELSE DO YOU NEED?“

“We have been wanting to go here for a while and finally snagged a reservation for my birthday! It is worth all the hype and accolades. We ordered 6 plates and it was the perfect amount. The mussels are perfection, I could eat those everyday. The cavatelli - superb! Honesty, it was all amazing. The staff is so warm, welcoming and personable too. We can’t wait to go back!“

“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!“

“Shrimp and grits is amazing if I were home I would be licking the bowl. Bartender Kelsey was fantastic and very welcoming. Avocado toast is the best I have ever had.“

“We just celebrated my birthday with friends there tonight and LOVED it!! Noah, our server, was absolutely fantastic! The food, delish!! The inside was gorgeous! We live an hour away and will come back!!! Highly recommend!!“

“I would love to give this restaurant 10+ stars. Never have I had such delicious food. Every mouthful of every dish was pure heaven! This was a birthday treat for my friend. We shared 6 small plates. I don't know which was THE best one. We started with drinks. He had the King Vidi and I the Shadowboxin. Both were expertly made. We then proceeded to enjoy Roasted oysters,Satsuma Mandarin salad, Tagliatelle, Foie Gras, Grilled Prawns and Grilled Broccoli. Every dish was spectacular and seasoned well. The accompanying sauces were smooth and velvety. We ended sharing a Chocolate Caramel Tart. My only issue was being seated next to the entrance where it was drafty whenever a new customer entered. I want to come back and try another selection of small plates. What a wonderful experience
Highly recommend!!!!“

“Our first visit there since before they closed down for COVID. Still excellent, courteous and efficient staff, quick service, generous portions, high quality. Five stars, highly recommended.“

“Great service! Great Food! Wonderful service! My daughter and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously! Such a friendly and kind staff! If you need a bite to eat in a relaxing atmosphere, check it out!“

“Love it and it’s eagles central“

“I love this place. They have some of the freshest distinct cocktail that I’ve seen that hasn’t been from a fancy spot or a speakeasy. They usually have a special and or some fresh fish. Backdoor pizza is also outback🤫. Only drawback is whenever me and my lady come in one female barkeep seems to purposely avoid greeting us or serving us. We sit at the bar and she’ll stay away like she playing defense for Manchester United and then when one of her co workers takes care of us she speak to any new patrons that come in and sit near us. Not sure what that could be but otherwise 5 ⭐️’s.“

“Excellent food quality, I tried the “New Bedford Scallop & Shrimp Risotto”, slightly hearty portion, very high quality on the palate and at the same time you can taste the flavors of the natural raw material without being “dirty” with seasonings or anything unnecessary. Cost in the American average of restaurants (the real ones), 35$ risotto. Exorbitant espresso cost, very long but not bad, $6“

“Me and My lady went here on a whim. I mean literally Caraba’s next door had over an hour wait and this place caught my eye. It was something different outside of our norm. So we went, the experience was amazing. The service was top notch, actually some of the best customer service I ever had. Was way beyond expectations, can’t say enough good things about Bree our server. She was quick, on top of things and had no problem explaining anything we wanted to know about the large variety of stuff they have on the menu and us never going there before. She talks to you and treats you like you are part of the family and she knows you,very friendly. Now for the food, again fast food but definitely better than expected. Very reasonably priced and good. Everything was fresh and good. The shakes were some the best we ever had. If I could give this place ten stars I would. Has an arcade and mini golf! What more could anyone ask for. Keep it up! Everyone there was friendly and wanted to be there. I told the host when we were walking out this place is excellent. He said that’s what we wanna hear,hope to see you here again next week at the same time Jokingly. This all Says a lot! We will be going back here many times to come. 👌“

“Pancakes were THICK and huge. Food was delicious! Waffle was also tasty.“

“I highly recommend this black owned restaurant, the food was amazing and customer service was outstanding. If you want some delicious and tasty food, go to South Flavor. You won’t regret it. You can thank me later!!“

“Food was delicious and the portion sizes were great!“

“The $10 quick spot is the best lunch deal in town.“

“What a sensational dining experience! We loved every course we had; a unique caesar salad (with grilled broccolini and fennel!), the "world's best hotdog" (a wagyu hotdog on a delicious buttery roll which truly was the world's best hotdog), truffle gnocchi mac 'n cheese, roasted peach confit duck, and barbecued chili lime pork. The S'mores cookie pie dessert was simply amazing! Service was exceptional (Kyle was the ideal server! polite, friendly, gracious and attentive - thank you so much). The staff is welcoming, the dining room is small and cozy, and everything about this local spot is charming. We will return for sure.“

“The place itself was beautiful the host to the waitress was very friendly and didn’t mind a conversation. Everything was delicious to the appetizers to the courses. The only thing that wasn’t great was the NY stripe aged steak. I asked for it to be cooked medium rare but this was the worst chewy steak I ever had. I saved majority of it to see if I could fix it at home but no luck. Just not the best quality steak and was hoping it was due to grill being in the name. They only charged $8 bucks for that little dollop of butter on top of the steak. The best thing we had was the scallops they are to die for! They melt in your mouth and the flavor was fantastic. I would come again just wouldn’t get their steak again.“

“We had our wedding at Hearthside over the weekend and were completely blown away by how amazing the day went. The food was unbelievably delicious and the staff’s attention to detail was incredible! Planning everything with them was so simple and enjoyable. Every request was met with a yes. Even our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the space, food, and staff. We can’t thank everyone at Hearthside enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect!“

“Best service and the best drinks around!!!“

“We have used Foodwerx many times over the years, most recently yesterday at my husband’s birthday party. As always, they FAR EXCEEDED my expectations! Nick is terrific to work with; he is creative in helping with the menu, dependable, reliable, and very reasonable for what he gives you! The food is fabulous. Everyone raved! The servers were terrific! On time, professional and my guests loved them. The bartender was also great! There is no other company I would ever think of using!!!!!“

“Best roast beef sandwich 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙“

“Looking for a nice place that's family friendly and not loud? Cracker Barrel is like being invited over for a nice southern style meal, home made and with love. Also check out their store for novelties and nice treats.“

“I went to a wedding last night here. Eric the bar tender was AWESOME!!!! Dana the server was AMAZING!!!!! Their attitudes and customer service was outstanding! They are truly the definition of people who show up cause they love their job!!!!!! Shout out to them and i hope they get the recognition they deserve!!!!!“

“Great food and great service!“

“I went to Stateside for the first time last night and everything we ordered was really good! White wine, champagne, an old fashioned, and the wheat beer were all very refreshing! Then the food knocked it out of the park - delicious fresh oysters packed in ice with sides of cocktail sauce, vinaigrette, and lemon; crunchy and juicy shrimp tempura seasoned perfectly; and shishito peppers that were fresh and deliciously salted! We were so happy with everything and it really elevated the whole night. The restaurant seemed slightly understaffed so a little slow but very good and kind and helpful!“

“Great food and great service from great people. The Pop Shop will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart.“

“Cozy, welcome little neighborhood eatery in South Philly. Our party of 5 had both lunch and breakfasts. All were big hits! Pictures below was one of the specials-short rib grilled cheese. Should be a menu regular! It was fabulous! A generous serving so tender and great flavor. We’ll be back! A great find!“

“Absolutely delicious! Authentic! Worth a side trip any day! Customer Service was amazing, as well!!“

“Happy Hour is one of the best! Food is awesome and a great atmosphere!“

“Been here 3-4 times and always been great. I appreciate the menu when all I wanted is simple clean food. All I can say to criticize is I would try not to cook your chicken so far ahead of time or overcook it maybe cause it was very dry both times I ate it and covered it in sauce to try and finish it“

“loaded, well seasoned cheese steak, will be back no doubt“

“Great service and environment. Thanks Angie“

“We got married here on 11/07/2025 and it was truly the best day. Sam, Marie and the whole team were spectacular. They made the planning process so easy. They were all very responsive, helpful and accommodating! The day of staff was simply amazing. I did not worry about a thing! The cocktail hour was the best!! My guests are still talking about it! The night was absolutely perfect. The grounds are beautiful and maintained perfectly. There are SOO many great spots for pictures. The Mansion was a fantastic place to get married!“

“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.“

“Been to the Kove several times, it never disappoints, the food is the absolute best I have recommended the Kove to many friends, they all thank me after they have experienced it there, we all agree besides the food being great the service and the atmosphere is also the best. I highly recommend the Kove, if you haven’t been there yet, you have to try it. I make sure I go there once a week.“

“Great food and ice cream. We all had a lot of fun !!! Thank you.“

“Fantastic service! Our server Shannon is the best! She always remembers us and how we like everything! The food is very good but it’s the service that makes this Fridays a great experience!“

“My friend and I finally made it to the Barnsboro Inn for lunch today-really wish we had discovered this gem a long time ago. We couldn’t stop talking about how charming it was inside, beautifully decorated for autumn. Our waitress was perfect-attentive but not hovering. My friend ordered the chicken quesadillas and I had the tavern cheese steak and both were scrumptious. Next time, we plan on going for dinner hopefully when it’s decorated for Christmas.“

“I was visiting my daughter. We went to South Street, for whatever reason. We decided to get a bite to eat. She suggested Rock'n'Flavors. You talkin about delicious. OHH BOYYY. Finger lickin good. OMG. I think the first time I went I got the Salmon Bowl . I try to get something different each time I go!!! Every time I go to Philly I go to Rock'n'Flavors, if time permits... Y'all keep doing what you're doing. and the music is right on time. Check it out when you can. You will NOT be disappointed. Enjoy the Blessing. Peace“
