“I traveled from Ann arbor for the weekend and wanted to visit Lourdas. I hadn't been there for years but it is as lovely and inviting as it was years ago. We had grilled Octopus salad and soupa avgolemono. Then we had shrimp Lourdas and lamb chops. They were both delectable. We took baklava and galactobureko home for dessert. The staff were attentive and patient and the other patrons seemed to be regulars with a few newbies here and there. I can't wait to go back!!“

Shoutout to Simone and Jay—they were phenomenal! Their customer service and hospitality made my experience even better. I’ll definitely be back! 👏🏾“

“Only 1 item on the menu- $20, cash only.
And it is the best $20 you can spend on a food truck in Philadelphia. In a portion easily feeding 2 people, this falafel truck is worth every bit of praise and acclaim it gets.
Gus is one of the kindest people you will meet, and he is constantly mixing up his dish to surprise you with a combination of chicken, falafel, pasta, veggies and fruit that will make you ask how in the world anyone could make such a combination work so effortlessly.

“We've lived in the neighborhood for 4 years and have not tried this gem until last week, what a shame! I did not expect the unique design, nice service, and delicious food. I had the moussaka, my wife had the lamb chops, and our young kids split the chicken kebab with rice. Also, the bar looks fun to have a drink at. Will definitely be back.“

“I ordered from Al-Sham's East Norriton location twice in the last week. (I went back because the food is so good!) The sampler is excellent, and the lamb kebabs (tender and flavorful) and rice dishes are standouts. Online ordering is easy, orders are ready when requested and manager is very cordial. I know I'll be back many times in the future.“

“New local halal food spot located on Cottman Ave near Castor Ave by the Sunoco gas station. Reasonably priced fresh food platters with a variety of tasty choices to choose from some as low as $5! $5 is a great price for those on a budget. I got the Mac and cheese/ fried chicken combo and the sauce it comes with is so yummy! It was pretty good. Also got the fish over rice with the garlic sauce it comes with a small salad as well. Fish was lightly breaded and cooked well. I will visit this spot again for sure to try out the other menu items!“

“Outstanding dining experience - cozy setting and elegant ambiance. The menu is eclectic and full of creative, gourmet dishes. I highly recommend the lamb, swordfish, and Wagyu—they were all cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The cauliflower appetizer was also delicious, with just the right amount of spice to give it a nice kick. Everything was beautifully presented, and the quality of the food was exceptional. I'll definitely be back!“

“Wow! We visited Maris this evening and were absolutely delighted with the entire experience.
Elise and her team offered up some fantastic food while exceeding our expectations with over the top service.
With so many options out there that quite frankly are underwhelming do yourself a favor and give Maris a try! You’ll be happy you did.“

“Excellent chicken shnitzel wraps!“

“Fabulous food and fantastic service. If you haven’t been, go! This is hands down our favorite restaurant ♥️“

“I was visiting Villanova and a good friend brought me to Nova Grill. The owner was over the top nice and accommodating. His Greek Hospitality did shine. Instantly felt like a regular. The place was spotless and well set up. All cleanliness and proper measure were followed perfectly. The food was plentiful, cooked and presented well and hot ( often forgot these days). The Locaniko ( Loukaniko) was spot on in flavor. I will most definitely stop in again when in the area. Highly recommended.“

“Ordered the Adana Kebab, three appetizer mix, and the sigara boregi (cheese filled pastry) and loved everything! The Carrot dip was amazing. We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. The little market has a great selection of spices and other Turkish staples!“

“The Falafels are hand made daily and the service is excellent. They’ll even run the order to you if time permits and if you are in a rush“

The service was accommodating and they made everyone feel like family. I would recommend this restaurant for any party occasion.“

“I recently visited this place and had an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. What really stood out, though, was the exceptional service.

A girl with glasses attended me, and she was incredibly kind from the very beginning. She welcomed me with a warm smile, made me feel comfortable, and took the time to explain the entire menu in detail. She also offered me cookies, baklava, and drinks, which made the experience even more special.

Overall, the combination of great food and outstanding customer service made this visit unforgettable. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!“

“The food is great along with the people that work there. The only small complaint I would have to say was the price point for portions that they give. Paying 17$ for a sandwich with no sides or $20 for a bowl that has small amount of protein and some veggies mostly rice seems a little high to me.“

“I always ride by the Flourtown Farmers Market and last night I decided to go in and try Caspian Grille. So glad I did. Ali is very welcoming and personable. Great customer service. He provided samples and background on the food. Samples of the chicken salad, banana pudding and pomegranate sauce were delicious. The three bean salad and pasta salad were so good! “feta does make it betta”. My boyfriend loved the baklava. We usually get it from Al Sham and he prefers Caspian Grilles. We will definitely be back!“

“I visited this pub for the first time today for a late lunch and drink. The cobb salad was so fresh and delicious and large enough to share with my friend! The roast beef sandwich rivals any I’ve had! The bartender, Chris, was the perfect blend of attentive but not a bit pushy or intrusive. I can’t wait to go back there!❤❤“

“Great value. I had the chicken on rice w/ salad & hot sauce. Couldn't try the white sauce due to a milk allergy. The chicken, rice and salad were fresh. Platter came with a canned soda for $8. Plenty of drinks to choose from. Def would return.“

“Excellent good & drinks. Great service. Beautiful decor.“

“Super tasty super healthy option and the best part is they make it however you want and its fresh everyday!“

“We ordered the Easter brunch catering deal that was posted on Facebook. It was a great selection of food with something for everyone. It fed 10 of us with leftovers. Very reasonably priced and delicious!!“

“Friendly, varied food choices, delicious, and always enough for leftovers later!“

“Greek Lady is located just couple blocks away the main campus of the University of Pennsylvania in university city. They have absolutely great location and it’s very convenient for everyone.

Greek Lady is a hidden gem. I was there for dinner and surprisingly it wasn’t very busy, maybe lunch time or early evening time they are more busy. The place was very clean and they have open kitchen. Their dining area is very big and very comfortable. Also their playlist was just great.

I ordered stuffed grape leaves which came with good amount of tzatziki sauce and pita bread. The stuffed grape leaves were just average but the tzatziki sauce was phenomenal. I just loved it. I ordered their famous spinach pie (spanakopita) which was crispy and huge. It was very good. My main course I had their plate option. I ordered grilled chicken with rice, mashed potatoes and baked veggies. They serve the plates one protein with 3 sides, sauce and bread. This is just a great deal because it’s a lot food. I liked everything so much especially baked veggies was very very tasty. They cooked chicken very well.

The service was great and all the service team members were very helpful people. Their prices are very reasonable and they serve the food with really huge portion. I strongly recommend this nice place for everyone.“
