Restaurants near Merchantville

“I’ve been twice with my Son, Cal and love the ambience, friendly staff and the menu items we tried. It’s not Olive Garden or Chilis but unique dishes of quality and flavor. The portions (for me) are large and sadly I haven made it to the tempting desserts. It is a byob but we also tried the Peach Iced Tea which was sweet and delicious. They also pack to go orders which seemed pretty busy. Their 2 for $30 dinners on Thursdays was more than we could finish but good the next day!”

“Best atmosphere, family/child friendly, awesome outside space, fantastic rotation of food trucks and lovely updates to the inside and upstairs space. You can tell Megan really has a strong attention to detail and will be incredibly successful as new ownership of the brewery! Happy to have her as a fellow business owner and friend in Merchantville!”

“Cocktails are so delicious and original I recommend the Dubai Chocolate Martini. The vibes are pretty nice and chill. People laughing and enjoying their time there. I will be back with some friends and family. Make sure when you go in you look to your left that’s where the entrance is do not go up the stairs unless you’re there for a private event lol.”

“The best coffee shop in the area!”

“We tried the chocolate chip cookie skillet with vanilla ice cream and it was delicious! We also tried a peanut butter cookie skillet with the salted caramel ice cream and that combination was an absolute Star ⭐️ The cookies are freshly baked to order, Highly recommend! If you are in the Merchantville area, definitely check these guys out. The shop is clean and family friendly! 😃”

“Yummy………………………………………………..”

“Hands down my favorite restaurant by far. Everything is so well crafted, even down to the sconces on the walls, and you can taste the passion Chef Phil brings to his dishes; quickly followed by the pristine service by Josh. I can’t say enough good things about Park Place, but what I can say is that I will be going here every chance I get. Every experience at Park Place is exceptional. As a Pinelands employee, advocate, and lover, Park Place nurtures an appreciation for foraged ingredients not just from NJ but other areas that are special to Phil. Thank you for changing my perspective on food to value a great meal and nature even more than I already do, Phil and Josh. I’m so happy I was welcomed to your table for an extraordinary night out every time I get the opportunity to go to Park Place!

“This restaurant is amazing! Impeccable service and professional. Anything on the menu is worth trying! This is my go to spot for celebration cakes and they are always beautiful and delicious!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed the food. You must try the Happy Happy Drunk.”

“We had our daughters 1st year birthday party because we had been here many times for dine in and take out. We had half the restaurant and it was a wonderful experience and everyone loved the food.”

“Delicious food from great people. Always ready on time and very satisfying.”

“One of the originals I love this place”

“This place needs many more 5 star reviews, always my favorite spot to eat, whether I’m dining in or taking out. Very friendly staff, amazing food, and excellent service. I really wish they were closer to home, but still worth the drive.”

“Man, this place was so awesome, I don't even know where to begin. First off, I just want to say that the cheese steak had so much meat inside it that there was a huge amount of it all over the paper when I took it out. And the cheese? Perfect amount in every bite! Everything came out piping hot, and there was just so much flavor I couldn't believe it! It was almost exactly like something you'd get in Philly! Overall, their cheese steaks are insane! These people don't play around!”

“Excellent food. It had flavor and was not a small amount. White meat was used in General Tso’s Combo’s; the appetizers were very fresh and delicious; the rice dishes were so authentic tasting. Usually my family and I order a rice dish as well as a vegetable option (the vegetable) and pork fried rice Quarts were 5/5 taste, quality and price (not expensive as other local Chinese food restaurants). Service was nice and they are working hard at the restaurant. Great job Grand China! 5/5; my family and I will be ordering again !

Vegetarian options: I didn’t just order vegetarian; but the one dish we did order was fitting my vegetarian heavy diet. The menu had plenty of options for vegetarian menu; healthy menu; and vegan options like rice dishes and veg Chinese dishes.

Dietary restrictions: They offer vegetarian and veg only options

Parking: Located on the restaurant side of the street and across the street.

Kid-friendliness: Friendly staff”

“Excellent Food & Amazing Service 👍👍”

“Awesome menu, great vibes and really tasty food. Must try this place.”

“One of the finest restaurants we’ve had the pleasure of experiencing. A++++++”

“Worth the wait. This was our last Philly Michelin m-starred restaurant to try. It’s the absolute best. The food was extraordinary and I’m already dreaming of my next meal there. My particular favorites included the buckwheat tart with morels and both pasta courses (one was an add on). Sadly I will now never feel satiated unless I’m eating Chef Schulman’s triangoli. A beautiful and intimate space with incredible care by the entire staff. Amanda Schulman was incredibly welcoming and engaged with the diners. Wine pairing was outstanding as was my Negroni made with Bruto Americano. The marzipan rhubarb cake was the stuff dreams are made of. So, so, so happy after this meal. Did I mention? Attentive and wonderful, wonderful staff. Thank you for an amazing evening!”

“The Love. was simply incredible! We came here with our 6 year old son. Our waiter was fabulous and very accommodating to our 6 year old which you don’t always find in Rittenhouse. The atmosphere was light and airy and the food was great! Make sure to try their Dubai Chocolate Sundae and if you’re going with children they do have special kids cups and will accommodate the menu for them.”

“Great food, music, and service!”

“So we just finished a wonderful meal and drinks at post haste. The cocktails are quite inventive and they have a nice wine list. From the happy hour menu we had a party Burger which was amazing and then from small plates we had a party deviled eggs can strawberry and scallop gazpacho. Everything was wonderful.”

“The food was wonderful as the service was fast. I couldn’t believe the check. Extremely reasonable for all you get. I’d definitely recommend Kanella to anyone”

“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! ❤️”

“The pizza was phenomenal!!!.”

“Great atmosphere and service. The food and desserts are a treat for the tastebuds!”

“Riley K was the best server we’ve had at a restaurant in a while, we basically let him order for us and he hit it out of the park. It would be wise to request him if you can. His knowledge and passion for the food is exceptional. He certainly made the experience one to remember. The Dorade was amazing, the skirt steak also incredible. The brown sugar ice cream is 10/10. Not a single thing hit our table that we weren’t 100% impressed with. The after dinner drink he suggested was perfect. Monte negro or something I can’t remember but it’s wonderful. He will take care of you.”

“Came here with my wife, and after we agreed Illata is one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Philadelphia. The food was creative, seasonal, fresh; the staff friendly and personal; and the intimate yet casual atmosphere made it feel like we were having an exclusive dinner-for-two. Highly recommend!”

“Tony and Patricia have created an awesome restaurant. The atmosphere of friendliness in the dining room is unmatched, and the food is fabulous. 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.”
