“I've tried a couple things from here and they're all absolutely mouth-wateringly delicious, made with love. My typical go to is the fish over rice, always super absolutely delicious.Vegetarian options: Although not listed on menu, he has falafel and fries and it's generous and delicious.Dietary restrictions: Halal and veg options“
“The atmosphere was great friendly crowd, the bartender served you with a smile and was prompt as well as she could be with the crowd that was there. The food was delicious especially their eggs rolls. Will definitely go back again as this was my second time going.“
“The Love. Umm, yes please. The vibe. The food. The staff. All great.I went for a solo dinner while in town for a conference. I initially wanted to get the fried chicken with grits and collards but my Server mentioned the special for the night, the ribeye with macaroni & cheese and said he’d go with the ribeye. So I did! It was a double the price but I was out of town and why not treat myself to a steak! It did not disappoint, so so good. Unfortunately I had a bit of a headache so I didn’t have a cocktail but the iced tea was good. ? I live in Atlanta, so hopefully I’ll be back soon enough to try out a drink. I had a lovely meal and it was pretty busy Sunday night. I guess it’s a popular spot.“
“Walking in here and you're immediately greeted with a wonderful dark and cozy ambiance reminiscent of the early half of the 20th century. Decor and music all match the theme, and the mural of dogs overlook all diners. The wine and spirit menu is very extensive, and the cocktails are premium. The sidecar was actually 10/10 blended and tasted exactly as it should. The biscuits served to start come with delicious honey butter and are quite tasty, warm, and flaky. Steak was cooked beautifully and was a high end chop. The blue cheese melted on top added great savory flavor to complement the steak. The sides were great as well. Nicely cooked sprouts and very buttery, creamy mashed potatoes. Do recommend the baked Alaska though it is very sugary! Quite an uncommon dessert and they do it well. Nice end to the meal. Overall a very tasty and memorable dinner. Thanks“
“Delicious food, service and ambiance!!!The ricotta ravioli was one of my favorites dishes!Our waiter Matt was very polite and very careful to accommodate my needs (allergy to peppers). He did make sure to tell me what I could eat or not from the menu.Definitely we will be back as well we will recommend this place with eyes closed!Highly recommend!!!!“
“I order takeout from here occasionally, but it's been a while since I've dined there. So I went with some people for lunch one day since we were in the area after a networking event. It wasn't crowded, but felt full with a good number of people having lunch/brunch.The staff were all pretty friendly. We were seated right after walking in and the service was a good pace throughout the entire dining experience. We all ordered something different but seemed to enjoy what we got. One person ordered one of the sandwich specials, another ordered the Mel's Chicken Sandwich and I got the Sante Fe Turkey Burger with sweet potato fries. It was very tasty, filling and served at the right temperature. I also had their Blueberry Lemonade which was really good.As always, a reliable place for a good meal. I recommend coming for brunch or course, but lunch is a good option too.“
“Absolutely loved the Sundae. Potato chips and kettle corn must be in all of my sundaes going forward. The latkes were phenomenal - must order. The harissa broccoli was delish. The burrata and focaccia was a delightful favourite.The Caesar salad was overdressed and the croutons were too hard for my preference. The pepperoni pasta was exactly that - not the worst but it was something I'd make drunk in my kitchen at 3 am. Fries were meh.A solid 4 on the food front. Go just for the decor alone, feeling like I was in an 80s golf clubhouse. The pool table is cute and fun too.“
“First time at River Twice.Met up with some favorite friends from my American Water days. Interesting approach to a menu. There was a $75 fixed tasting menu and then a set of optional extras. I went with the soft shell crab special and everyone else did the burger (since we specifically came on burger Monday). This is a cozy small restaurant in the heart of Philly. We were seated at the counter and were able to watch the food prep. Pretty cool. Service was excellent. Food was outstanding.Plenty of food to satisfy your hunger in the tasting menu alone, but I am glad we added the extras. The starter was raw Maine scallops in a crème sauce.Unbelievably good! This was followed by the NJ sushi rice with smoked steelhead.Well made, filling, and slightlyunremarkable. The mackerel, steamed cabbage and sweet potato made up for it with a perfect bite of these three ingredients! My soft shell crab was very unusual, in a good way, with an interesting creamy sauce and pickled onions. The burger was outstanding!! Lots of nuanced flavors going on. Finally, the winter citrus creamsicle was fun, creative, light, and the perfect ending to a super cool dining experience. Highly recommend River Twice for the adventurous eater!“
“Such a gorgeous cocktail bar. Each drink was prepared so beautifully, I love the vibes of this place for a pre or post dinner cocktail. The menu wouldn't be my first choice but that's solely based on my food preferences. I ordered the short rib Mac and cheese and it was delicious but I think the menu was a bit limited.“
“Definitely the best meal I've had in a while. I sat at the bar and felt welcomed like I was in someone's home. The bartender was attentive but gave us space. I had the ribeye and it was cooked to perfection. Would recommend to a friend and absolutely return.“
“Food... Amazing!! Service... Fantastic!! Atmosphere... Cozy!!I highly recommend this restaurant. I enjoy the delicious food (especially the Salmon Freekah Salad and Pistachio Sticky Bun) and the Brown Butter Artichoke Borekas are everything!!! After a year of coming here, I've tried nearly everything on the menu ? Owner, Chef Mike Solomonov is incredibly generous!!!“
“Celebrated our 5th anniversary here tonight while visiting Philly. Beautiful ambiance and impeccable service. Rebecca our server was kind, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make our experience great. We did the Chef’s which was seasonal, thoughtful and delicious. Each serving was creative and intriguing. Compliments to Chef Kevin McWilliams. If you live in or near the Philly area please give this place a try!“
“Amazing little bar with a great beer selection and excellent bar food. The wings were among the best I’ve ever had (and I’m from Alberta - we take wings seriously!) knowledgeable server and very friendly. They put a lot of care into the food and drink of this bar and it shows.“
“A bit loud but great food and so many choices! I would say they offer a good price for the quality. The pizza was top notch - fresh ingredients and well made, as were the polish pierogi, much lighter and more enjoyable than what I’ve had elsewhere. Definitely make a reservation. And there’s no signage outside so make note of the street address so you can find the right door (only the number outside). Have a blast there!Vegetarian options: Yes, many!“
“If you're a cheesesteak aficionado like me, then this spot is a must-visit! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality, setting the tone for an exceptional dining experience. First off, let's talk about the star of the show - the cheesesteak itself. It's evident that they take pride in using only the freshest ingredients, with the steak never seeing the inside of a freezer. The soft sesame seed wedge perfectly complements the juicy, flavorful meat. And speaking of meat, they don't skimp on quality here. Wagyu, rib eye, and NY strip - need I say more? Each bite is a savory symphony of premium beef. What truly sets this place apart is their commitment to cooking each cheesesteak to order. No dried-out meat sitting on the side of the grill here. Every sandwich is crafted with care, ensuring maximum freshness and flavor. Now, I'll admit, the price may be a tad higher than your average cheesesteak joint, but trust me, it's worth every penny. You're paying for top-notch ingredients and impeccable craftsmanship. And the customer service was on point! From the friendly greeting at the door to the attentive staff throughout our meal, they made us feel like valued guests. If you're in downtown Philly craving a cheesesteak experience that's a cut above the rest, look no further. This place delivers on quality, flavor, and hospitality. Can't wait to come back for more!!“
“Super delicious french toast with hot syrup on the side. We sat at the bar and the service was very efficient. Our food came within 10 minutes of ordering and everything was fresh. Plenty of seating at the bar and a lot of tables/ booths in the dining area.“
“We used to go pretty often when we lived there before the fire so many years ago but went again recently. The outdoor space and nice and comfortable, the food was really tasty and service was good as well. A nice place to get some good food.“
“It’s a nice small area in the city! I definitely wanted to try a meal that night that was culturally different from my usual orders and this did it! This place does a great job of making you feel like you’re in the European city and service was very friendly!Food choices are definitely different but great to experience“
“My wife and I went for our anniversary dinner. Excellent music playing, including Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, and Townes van Zandt and beautiful, cozy atmosphere. Began with the venison scrapple (to die for), then to the cheese board (delicious goat cheese), pierogies (incredibly delicate). Then to the venison which was cooked to perfection along with the various sides. Dessert was a cheesecake tart and Elwood tea, very tasty and rich cheesecake. The 2 cookies at the 2nd were also delicious. I don't know if I ever had a better time at a restaurant, but this is easily top 5 meals I've had in years.“
“Our server Elizabeth, along with all others who took care of us, created a spectacular experience for our family. Our celebration was special and they were sure to enhance it, including a special card for the guest of honor. Our meals were spectacular from drinks to desserts.“
“Came here for the espresso martini crawl and would come back for a regular meal. The staff was friendly and approachable. The Hugh Hefner espresso martini was a unique twist, at first I wasn’t too sure about it, but after the second sip, it was one of my favorites. Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.“
“Food was fresh and fantastic. It's considered new American food and I think the menu might rotate seasonally.It's recommended that you get 2 or 3 small plates per person plus an entree.Probably not kid friendly, the place is on the smaller side and not sure if they have high chairs.“
“Bar Hygee is a true gem of a place; it dazzles in every sense. From the thoughtful whimsicality of the decor to the curated comfort and coziness of the atmosphere to the impeccable, exceptionally warm service (shout out to Morgan- an absolute dynamo!) to the purposefully playful and out-of-this-world delicious drinks & dishes, Stu and his visionary, industrious team have created a textbook manifestation of the concept from which this place takes its name. THANK YOU for the fabulous swag ;) and for hosting us with such generosity of spirit! We'll be back again and again!“
“This was the second time in 7 months we came to Jean George for a special occasion and were not disappointed. Both times we had the tasting menu and both times we were intrigued with the many delicious courses. We also included the wine pairing which brought to light many different wines, that we knew nothing about, if not for the sommelier's amazing choices. Each plate was beautifully presented, and every glass of wine was described. The meal was served over several hours but we never felt that the meal lagged. It was a luxurious experience that made us both have a feeling of being pampered. I would suggest Jean George to anyone who enjoys French cuisine. The food, service, and ambiance make this a destination restaurant for any type of celebration.“
“Outstanding food and service. I had the chipotle chicken benedicts over pancakes. I wish I had saved a picture. I also highly recommend the country fried steak, which is a massive portion! This place always delivers for a fantastic breakfast or lunch. Plus, it's BYOB. It is one of my go-to places for breakfast in philly.“
“Illata is truly the perfect restaurant experience. Amazing food and amazing service with the perfect ambiance. Everything wowed us but the chicory salad, tuna, and banana cream puff were to die for. Illata deserves every accolade! Highly recommend to everyone!“
“Awesome spot with great service, fun atmosphere, and a unique menu. My niece raved about the burger. My mom and I shared the pastrami fried rice which was a delicious surprise. I wasn't expecting how well the flavor combinations come together with the scallions, pastrami, and mustard sauce. The portions are huge! Definitely a go-to spot.“
“First time here and everything was great! We got there early for lunch (food was perfect) then Hans gave us such a great, informative, hilarious tour/tasting we ended up staying for another round. I cannot remember both girls’ names who were our servers but they were excellent. Definitely coming back soon!“
“In from va beach for vball tournament. Local friend showed me around and I was lucky enough to land here. The short rib with asparagus and potatoes as side was nothing other than amazing. My 2nd favorite meal over 51 years of life. The only reason there is one piece of Rib on plate is because I couldn't picture the next day without the taste.“
“Our waitress was phenomenal, and the food was perfect. The stuffed crepe’s texture and richness was amazing. Our rosy chicken was so lovely, the mango spread and truffles were wonderful accompaniment. And the financier for dessert was truly incredible. We will definitely be returning!“
“I had a pretty great experience with my girlfriend and family on a Friday night - they were able to get us inside as the outside became fairly windy. Great food, good service - very pleasant and not a bad price at all.The only improvement could be the outdoors structure but apparently they are improving that soon too.“
“An amazing experience from end to end!I'll be honest, I had mixed feelings about the pre fixe menu. I loved the idea of checking my stomach at the door and allowing the chef to do their thing. On the other hand, would I like it? Would it meet my growing expectations on FSS?The answer was, in spite of significant hype and exceedingly high expectations, absolutely amazing. The only things you need to think about with regards to FSS is when you'd want to make a reservation and what cocktail(s) you might want along with your meal!“
“Great service great food and was in great taste. Not ideal for large groups but we managed to get Reservations for a party of 8 and was seated in the back near the kitchen. They had fantastic craft drinks, delish foods to share like family style and great ambience! Located in a cute neighborhood although it was a little scary to drive to in very narrow streets that are one way, so glad we Uber-ed there since the street parking was a bit cramped as well. Highly recommend!“
“This space is breathtaking. From the first few steps in, you know it’s going to be a good food experience. Meticulous detail on decor and the dishes. We had an oyster appetizer, fresh and well treated. We tried their pasta dishes and the spicy chicken sandwich and neither disappointed. Hands down best restaurant in the city.“
“Redcrest Kitchen is the Cafe / Diner on 6th St. just a one block south of Philadelphia's famous South St.; In other words, it's right where all of the action is. On this rare rather warm Saturday (short sleeve shirt in Philadelphia in Mid-March-really?) we got a outdoor table for our brunch and basked in the sun. My wife shared a hotdog and Caesar salad with my sons girlfriend, my son also had a Caesar with an order of fries and I had their very good; 2 scrambled eggs A wedge of excellent hash browns Two breakfast sausages And some whole grain toast To say we were all "Happy Campers" with this first rate meal combined with accomplished service would be an understatement. Along with a not too expensive bill, made this trip to the Redcrest Kitchen an outstanding experience.“
“The food was delicious, albeit pricy, and was neatly complemented by the DJ set as part of their spring happy hour celebrations. I enjoyed just about every part of my experience, aside from moderately slow service. I'd still recommend this hotel-lobby-bar to anyone looking for a lightly upscale good time.“
“I found this cute brunch place and tried their famous French toast—it was amazing!The granola-covered French toast had a slightly crunchy exterior and a soft interior with strawberry cream.It was a big portion, and after finishing it, I felt like I wouldn't want anything sweet for days. Next time, I'll try their Mexican breakfast and share it with my husband along with the French toast. Overall, it's a great place for brunch with yummy food!“
“I saw this place on social media so wanted to check it out. You have an amazing idea here. I thought the Z thing was only for the menu but they have their employees substituting Z’s for everything. It’s funny, it’s an experience. Great customer service IMO.Y’all need to update your address or business page on google maps, this location shows one place. I saw another location on your website, this review is for the truck at 3400 Fox St. I’m not even sure what this business page address is for. Maybe this is an old location?Onto the chicken cheesesteak. I got one with fried chicken tenders inside, lettuce, and I think they put some kind of hot sauce as well. The bread this comes on is incredible. If you want anything HEALTHY, DO NOT come here, I’m reading that it’s deep fried bread. Whatever they do to it, I could’ve ate it alone. The fried chicken inside is seasoned well. It’s kinda too much and falls apart as a result but who cares, eat some first with a fork then eat the rest. I got fries here but they were just okay. I want to come back and try something else.“
“First time in here the other night. Brian and Kourtney were behind the bar, both were very nice and attentive. I wasn’t super hungry so I got the tostadas which were way better than I anticipated. Looking forward to trying other food next time. They were also playing vinyls which I thought was a nice touch. Will be back again soon.“
“One of the best new restaurants in Philly, and it’s BYO! Delicious forward-thinking dishes & excellent service in a quaint Philly row home. Menu is a fixed price and changes often. Included in the price is an appetizer, entree, and dessert.I have been at least 5 times since moving to this neighborhood. I have yet to have any dish that was not excellent. The menu is always creative, the dishes colorful, and service friendly. Cannot recommend enough!“
“Another wonderful dining experience at the Valley Green Inn. This time my party of four came for Sunday brunch. We were happily surprised with a complementary basket of warm mini muffins. Which went very well with our glasses of very reasonably priced and good dry white. Two of us had the crabcake sandwich with fries which was delicious. my other two dining companions had salads – one a beautiful quinoa, and the other a large salad with chicken, both of which they enjoyed. Now, the service! We were fortunate to get Tristan again as our server. He was a delight as usual with attentive and upbeat service. As I said, a wonderful dining experience – good food, good service, and the beautiful ambience of the Wissahickon . What could be better. “
“First trip to downtown Philly. Patron recommended Xfinity. Bellied ylup to the bar and order a beer to figure out this place. Met Angelina who was absolutely wonderful! At some point Russ also helped me. He's super cool. Great bartender! And beautiful story teller. Bars are bats. But staff makes it awesome. These two are Incredible. Dynamic duo. Good times. Great food and very economical! Highly recommend!“
“Visited for lunch on a sunny Sunday. Solid wine and beer list and fantastic food! The only downside was that there is limited seating and we were near the windows. The sun was streaming in and there was no window shade. Not only were we warm, we ate the whole meal with the sun in our eyes! I’m hoping they fix this issue bc it’s an easy fix and the food was truly delicious“
“Had not eaten the food, so I can't comment. But having worked as a fine dining bartender in Los Angeles, I was blown away by their cocktails. Their menu made the mixology need in me geek out. My friend and I went there for a quick drink between movies on Christmas day. And we were very pleased with the experience.“
“Step into the nostalgic embrace of Joe’s Steaks + Soda Shop, where the past and present blend seamlessly to serve up some of Philly’s finest cheesesteaks. Since 1949, this beloved spot has been dishing out mouthwatering steaks that are the talk of the town. With a classic diner vibe that’ll transport you to the days of jukeboxes and soda fountains, Joe’s is more than just a meal—it’s a slice of Philadelphia history. Whether you’re craving a steak with onions melting into gooey cheese or a vegan option that doesn’t skimp on flavor, Joe’s has got you covered. And don’t forget to top off your visit with a creamy milkshake or a refreshing soda—it’s the perfect pairing for a truly iconic Philly experience.“
“On Point was very on point with our brunch. It's a BYOB spot in heart of Point Breeze with some great flavors and vibes. The group sampled quite a few starters including wings and cheesesteak egg rolls. For the main meal I had to go with the Challah French Toast. Unique flavor especially with the cheese and nuts. The group really enjoyed all the food. Our server TJ was also awesome. Made some great suggestions. Catch me back at on point in the summer.“
“Loved the service and the food! We had GF linguine with clams - clams were nice and tender( not overcooked like other places), Eggplant parm with spaghetti-eggplant parm was amazing - n tender, and chicken parm- excellent!Can't wait to go back to try their calamari. Lots of Vegan options too .Vegetarian options: Tons of vegetarian and vegan options. GF linguine is available on request.“
“Have been here in Roxborough 2 years but never really saw the place until I found it on Google maps. It's a little unassuming on the outside but is really nice on the inside. I think they need a big, bright sign out front facing the street directly.Excellent food. Came for breakfast. Not too salty and they make a great hollandaise sauce. Had the stuffed french toast and crab portobello benedict. Will be back to try lunch and dinner, as well!Prices were good. The food is well portioned. You won't leave hungry.Service is great too. Multiple people checked on us. They check on you consistently for water and coffee. It was busy but we didn't have to wait too long to sit. We also didn't wait too long for food (maybe 15 minutes after order) but they brought our drinks of course within 5. Food came out hot.Can't wait to go back! Definitely recommendDietary restrictions: There is fish on the menu and also a vegetarian burger.“
“Great live storytelling event! Intimate space. Drinks were good. Try out the duck cheesesteak. It was delicious! Definitely an elevated cheesesteak. Duck was very tender. It came with fries they were ok. No salt and some were way too soft. I like a little crunch on the outside.“
“This is easily the best new restaurant in the area. And it isn’t close. We’ve been to Tommy’s four times now, and everything we’ve had is excellent. I keep track of things we order at restaurants and this is what I had to say:Awesome cheesy garlic flatbread; very good half bbq chicken; best French dip ever; awesome fries; very good burgers; excellent sweet potato tots with marshmallow sauce; very good pizza; very good Caesar (get extra dressing); awesome Cherry Coke ribs; excellent pulled pork; great chips (get side of bbq); amazing toffee dessert.The staff is amazing. Super friendly and attentive. It has a good loyalty program. We’ve already received some rewards. Beware though. It has a sports bar vibe and can get pretty noisy. The food is outstanding. I’d be surprised if they made anything that we didn’t like. Check it out.“
