Go for the shared tasting menu and make the most of all the restaurant offers. And COME HUNGRY! It’s especially fun to bring friends along to enjoy the entire experience!“

“I think I probably have had just about everything on your menu, and I loved everything. I also like that Stina is not pretentious.“

“Not kidding. Our table of 4 ordered nearly everything in the menu. Each bite was delicious, balanced, nuanced, worldly, fresh, and inventive. We ordered a second dish of the carrots, and also the cukes. Dessert was outstanding. Interesting wines, including a chilled Croatian wine that paired well with every dish. Definitely returning. Soon! ❤️“

This place is it 😍😍😍 I took many photos last night of the food, the atmosphere felt as though I was not in Philadelphia, but far away on a perfect vacation dining at an amazing restaurant. I'm going to post my photos on my business page, people, if you want Greek food, THIS IS YOUR PLACE ☺️ Thank you for a wonderful hospitality and an amazing time my fiance and I will never forget.“

“This is my 4th time coming and as usual they don’t disappoint. These guys are a class act. They treat you with respect and the food is just as good has the service. I tell all of my friends and family about this place. If you haven’t been here yet you are cheating yourself of a great experience. I can’t say enough about this place. “ They Rock ““

“Clean environment, beautiful setting, incredibly spectacular food—the taste is delicious.“

“I've been in Philly 16 years, and eaten at every major fine dining restaurant in the city, many more than once. Amada, Zahav, Budakkan, Vernick Fish, you name it. Every Stephen Starr. Every Michael Solmonov. Every Jose Garces. This is the best meal I have ever eaten in my life. The carrots, the beets, the mushroom taglioli, the tuna tartar, the beef carpaccio tartlet, the duck, the liver mousse, the steak...I could go on. Every single bite was either perfect or nearly so. Both of my daughters and my wife said the same. We talked about our top dining experiences in Tokyo, Paris, St. Petersburg, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Miami, Chicago, there have been so many, many good meals in our life. We just found one of the greatest. Thank you Emmett. We look forward to our next visit (once you fix the ramp). -Stephen“

“Being Armenian my expectations were high. Apricot Stone far exceeded what I was expecting. Service (Ani) was excellent and all of the help was very friendly. I highly recommend it.“

“I hadn't been to Barbuzzo in about 8 years. We were headed to a show at The Met, so I made reservations for dinner. The staff, the food, the drinks, and the service were all on point. We'll definitely be back!“

“my first time going there in moorestown , new jersey with my bf there food is delicious“

“Probably the weirdest platter I’ve had ever. There were charred/roasted grapes, peppers, chicken, avocado on top of noodles, along with a host of unidentified alien objects. But hey, we liked it! 😄 Lines are looong. Also the guy is quirky and kind, a Philly urban legend“

“Everything was perfect from beginning to end, from the reserved table, the service, the food. Because we were a party of 2 and ordered many courses , the server staggered our food so we could enjoy every morsel We started with soup. I had the lentil my husband had Moroccan Bean. Both were so wonderful we we started sharing. I was looking forward to the taramasalata all day. When it came to the table along with warmed pita bread it did not disappoint. On to the falafel: which were some of the best we ever sampled. Not finished yet, next we had lamb kafta. Which were succulent and prepared to perfection. Our final course was the superb moussaka. The eggplant melted in our mouth with each bite and the ground beef and béchamel enhanced the flavor to a higher level Our only disappoint was we didn't have room left for dessert. There is always next time! Another wonderful dining experience at Norma’s!“

“I ordered for pick-up tonight and the storm blew down a tree across my street. I called and they offered to bring it to me despite the downed tree and storm. I was totally surprised and impressed when the driver walked two blocks to get the food to us. Oh, and it was delicious too.“

“omg one of our Doctors treated us to lunch today ..so so good ..I will now go on my own ..food was delicious“

“I love this place! The staff is always pleasant and welcoming. I am vegan, and there are so many plant-based options that are absolutely delicious! This is a terrific option for a healthier fast food experience. The rice and hummus bowls are my favorites, with falafels and/or mushrooms for the protein choice. I'm thrilled that they have eco-friendly compostable packaging as well. Oh, and make sure to use the app to accrue points for real savings on future orders ;)“

“I've trying to eat better, and cava works for me.1st time there talked to manager about ordering. She was a big help. I think her name was jodi.“

“It’s very tasty there, we always order from them when going to center city, definitely recommend!!“

“Wow, I had tried the jerk chicken over white rice with a side of mac and cheese and yams with an additional side of cabbage and my oh my from the first bite in the car to the excitement on the way home ! It smelled amazing and tasted even better! Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned spot on.. loved the environment as well very friendly people! Will be back for sure 100/10“

“Great hidden gem in Fishtown✨

Everything was fantastic to the apps, the ambiance, and even our server!

🍝 Food: We loved all the apps, and honestly for us we’d just get all apps if we could. The winter special monkfish was ok. And it was cool to try a new pasta “shape” for us: storzapretti e.g. look like meatballs, but are herby delicious ricotta balls with a snap. We loved the orata fish dish. WOW, perfectly cooked fish! For about $100 pp, we essentially got an XL 8-course tasting menu which is pretty worth it!

what we got:
⭐️ scallop focaccia toast 5/5 WOW! impressed, the flavor, the texture. more than just a fish-on-toast
⭐️ shaved artichoke 5/5 acidic goodness
⭐️ skate cheeks 4/5 great texture! flavor combo was amazing with the calabrian chili and polenta
⭐️ grilled orata 4/5 perfectly cooked with the buttery meat and crispy skin, tapenade was fire!
- tagliolini monkfish 3/5 not a fan gritty pieces in the pasta, monkfish felt a bit overcooked and tough
- storzapretti ricotta dumplings 3/5 glad to try something new!! not our thing

🍴 service: amazing! our server was attentive, helpful and sassy — we liked her. overall staff was great too, they brought the dishes and explained them and between courses they took plates and cleaned the table. very pleasurable :)

🕯️ atmosphere: the ambiance was intimate and sexy! there was not a bad angle of the interior — it was a classy date night spot“

“Your food is delicious and your service excellent. Thank you so much for sharing this food with the public. It is not easy to have a restaurant. Zorbas tavern is a must try place.“

“Bugün on the grill restorana geldim arkadaşlarımla kısacası bu ikinci gelışım buraya .Çalışan personel arkadaşlarıma teşekkür ediyorum restoranın temizliği ve yemeklerın çok lezzetli olmasından dolayı.furkan ve berkant arkadaşımızın güler yüzlü konuk sever olması mekanı bana çok sevdırdı.ve bütün arkadaşlarıma Furkan ve Berkan’tın güleryuzu ve aşçılarımızın lezzetli yemeğinden dolayı on the grill i şiddetle tavsiye ediyorum.“

“a very authentic delicious food,and a great generous team,I highly recommend it“

“Amazing pastries and coffee! Came in for a quick bfast and enjoyed lots of new flavors.“

“Zaffron Grill is one the best restaurants at the Shops at Liberty Place. I love their food, especially the Steak Kabob platter,“

“Great experience! Came for a birthday dinner and everything was freshly made, delicious, and plentiful, from the appetizers to the kebab platters to the delicious desserts!! Great, friendly service! Will certainly be back.“

“Loved our brunch today. We stumbled on this place while visiting Philly. Was intrigued by all the Zagat stickers and went inside. Sampled the weekend brunch menu, Moroccan eggs, crab benedict, French toast and the spinach quiche. All dishes were delicious. But, since I had never had Moroccan eggs before, was very excited about trying that and so enjoyed the spice combo. Also really enjoyed the Moroccan tea. Lovely neighborhood bistro. Fabulous service and experience. Highly recommend.“

“We didn’t get to eat at Zahav - but got the next big thing and ordered the Lamb Meal from gold belly with salatim. It was DELICIOUS!! Best lamb we have ever had, so delicious. Salads were yummy, hummus well done and could easily feed 6 adults. So. Much. Food. If you can’t make it to the restaurant- order the kit from Goldbelly and treat yourself!“

“My girlfriends and I recently visited Dear Daphni for a birthday celebration and needless to say, we'll be coming back again. Liz, one of the Front of House coordinators, ensured we had the best dining experience on my first visit. From assigning the perfect table and attentive server (Seth his name was), continuously checking in if we needed anything, and indulging our request to have our celebratory photos taken while still being able to keep a watchful but friendly eye on the restaurant to make sure incoming guests were being greeted and accommodated while still ensuring seated tables were having a lovely dining experience - that is certainly no easy feat. As Sampan alumni, I have the earned discernment to say Liz was absolutely the calm in the chaos last Friday night.

As for the food, we had the Moroccan meatballs, mezze platter, crisps, assorted kebabs, branzino, and the lamb chops. Everything was truly well done that evening even down to the pita bread that reminded me of a bakery during my recent travels to Marrakesh. And the lamb shops were absolutely worth breaking the no meat Friday rule of the Lent season - needless to say my girlfriends and I can't wait for our next visit.“

“Everyone loved every bite! One of my favorite brunch places in and around the city. Awesome food, and attentive service! #lEtsreAlesTate“

“Delicious and always fresh!!“

“1)wonderful food and a goodly portion.2) BYOB 3)Not cheap but reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. Hits the Restaurant Trifecta!!!“

“Very great authentic Tunisian food.“

“Food, price and service were good. The wasn't a lot of seating for guest, between the pick delivery guys and non-custoners off the street just hanging out seating was difficult.

But overall good food and variety 😋.“

“We visited Pera and it is great to know that the restaurant met expectations and was consistent with the excellent review in the PHiladelphia Inquirer.“

“I cannot give Mona a more glowing review, I went for my birthday celebration yesterday and we were a party of 8. The atmosphere is gorgeous, I adore Greece and the vibe was very much like several restaurants and bars I visited in Ios and Mykonos! I waited at the bar for the rest of my party to arrive, the changing art behind the bar was so fun! The bartenders were so sweet and wished me a happy birthday (with a free shot!). Our server was Ryan, with help from the lovely Tiffany who explained every dish and their differences from each other. At first i was worried the tables were a bit small but the bussers where very on top of clearing away finished plates and glasses so we never ran out of space or had any pile up of dirty dishes. The food was SO good! I had the lamb over orzo and it was fall off the bone, melt in your mouth delicious. Between the 8 of us I'd say we tried about half the menu and it was all so good! The fillet kabobs lemon potatos were my next favorite after my meal. It was my birthday so with dessert (orange phyllo cake: sooo amazing) came bells and sparklers! It really was the best dinner celebration and I can't thank Tiffany enough for recommending it. Everyone should try an Ouzu shot too, even if you dont like licorice, its very greek!“

“As wonderful as I remember. A true cc gem. Get the tiramisu“

“Door Dashed it for the first time last night. Yummy and enough for 2 meals for me. New fan!“

“Lovely atmosphere, very good food and our Waiter Nick was wonderful!“

“Irwin's is one of those rare South Philly spots that actually lives up to the hype without trying too hard. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and intentional—bright, open space, relaxed energy, and a vibe that makes it just as good for a casual dinner as it is for a planned night out.
The menu is where Irwin’s really stands out. It’s not overloaded or confusing, just focused and well thought out. Everything feels like it was designed with care, from the small plates to the larger shared dishes. The flavors are clean but still bold enough to keep things interesting. You can tell the kitchen pays attention to detail instead of just pushing out trendy food. Even simple dishes end up tasting elevated.
Service is another strong point. The staff is attentive without hovering, and they’re genuinely helpful when it comes to recommendations. There’s a balance there that a lot of restaurants miss—professional but still relaxed enough that you don’t feel rushed or pressured.
The rooftop space is also a big bonus. On a nice night, it really changes the whole experience. You get a great view of the neighborhood, and it adds a layer of personality that makes the meal feel more memorable than just “going out to eat.”
Pricing is fair for what you’re getting, especially considering the quality and setting. It’s not a budget spot, but it doesn’t feel overpriced either—you leave feeling like you got what you paid for.
Overall, Irwin’s is the kind of place that works for multiple occasions: date nights, group dinners, or just a solid meal when you want something better than average. It’s consistent, well-run, and easy to recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality dining experience in South Philly.“

“First time trying this restaurant. As someone who has lived in Turkiye (Iskenderun, Bornova and Ilica/ Cesme) Their food was amazing! We ordered the lahmacun, a cheese pide and shepherds salad. We ordered online and had very quick and free delivery. Tasted just as good as I remembered. Will definitely order again and will eat at restaurant. Teşekkür ederim!“

“Red lentils, lamb, and pomegranate lassi were great. Looking forward to going back!“

“This is my favorite food in the neighborhood! You can’t beat the price for the platters, which end up being two meals for me. My husband and I often buy two dishes and share so we can have falafel AND chicken, plus leftovers. I know the guy working there is watching the neighborhood too, because he asks about my whereabouts and pays attention to what’s going on. That’s nice to have on that corner. Anyway, I’m sorry I didn’t ask your name! I will next time.“

“My first taste of Shakshuka and it was amazing! Very comfortable place, too. My partner had a smoked turkey sandwich that had a lot of great flavor!“
