What really sets the place apart, though, is the atmosphere. It’s lively without being overwhelming, welcoming, and exactly the kind of place you want to settle into for a long night with friends. A true neighborhood gem.“

“Best Brazilian Bar around, and definitely #1 in the Northeast. The owner, security DJ, and bartenders, especially Thamy, are awesome. It's always a great time! Excellent food, music, and drinks. Melhor bar Brasileiro ao redor, e definitivamente o número 1 do Nordeste. O proprietário, DJ de segurança e barmen, especialmente Thamy, são incríveis. É sempre um grande momento! Excelente comida, música e bebidas.“

“Very friendly staff with quick and attentive service. Relaxing atmosphere with live music out on the patio area. I wanted to try something new (for me) in the area and was pleasantly surprised. I decided to go out of my comfort zone and try something new to eat as well as I've never really had a taste for seafood. I ended up ordering the crispy calamari, the king crab, and some wings just in case I didn't like it. WOW! the calamari was very good and my mind was blown with the King crab. Their buttery sauce was a perfect pair with the crab. It was a great experience. 100% will return very soon for more!“

“I have been coming to Freddy & Tony's since i was born! As soon as you walk in they make you feel like your family. If you do not speak Spanish or know how to read Spanish that is not a problem here their menu is biligual, and so are the staff. This place is were I go to get a home style meal from the islands. My favorite is their sweet plantain, stewed chicken, arroz con gandules, and salad(***put oil and vinegar on it not salad dressing it cuts the fat from the food you're eating to refresh you pallet). They have tons of options to choose from too, just know that if you going here on a Saturday or Sunday be ready for a crowd because this is THE best place to go for Puerto Rican food in Philly!“

“the dj is a savage. I loved all music he played! the food is great. the staff is very friendly!“

“We had our wedding here on 9/28/19 and it was AMAZING. The price was reasonable, the setting was intimate & cozy and the staff was lovely. My family can’t stop talking about how lovely it was! The outdoor seating area was perfect for smokers and non-smokers alike. The grounds were beautiful for pictures. Last but not least, the food was delish (especially the salmon) and the options at the bar ROCKED. It was, all in all, incredible!“

“I just joined Five Iron Fishtown and I love it. The location is great and I love the vibes of the inside. The hours are perfect as I generally go to use the simulators before work in the morning and work on my swing or play a round. I’ve also had a few lessons with Senior Golf Pro Matt Davis and I can already tell my swing has gotten better. With the technology they have and following Matt’s direction I feel like I’ll be performing a lot better once I get on an actual course. Highly recommend.“

“Love this place! My favorite new bar in the city. Food is outstanding, atmosphere is always on point, and some of the finest starmaids around. Highly recommend catching an Eagles game. The DJ spins the Eagles fight song after every touchdown and spins Philly classics during TV commercial breaks.“

“It’s a family bar love this bar“

“The food there is amazing my favorites are the pizza steak the cheese fries and the Parmesan wings“

“I enjoyed myself. I had a ball actually.. It was a quiet night. Barely anyone there. No problem 4 me. I like my space and strong drinks and music. In a clean environment is what makes me happy. Plus siren & Marvin was the cherries on top. That other brown skin guy became more highly disrespectful as the night went on. He claims to be the boss.“

“When there are no events, a great place to decompress. Staff are friendly and take care of you. The burgers are banging, the beers are icy breezy and the frozen bacardis are a vacation at home. Stellar staff as always.“

“Awesome!! Never had a bad meal!! Wine was excellent as well…friendly staff ❤️“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Amazing food and even better people. The Rook Restaurant showed our family so much kindness and support during a very difficult time while our niece was in the hospital. The compassion we received meant more than words. Truly grateful for the warmth, care, and incredible food. 💛“

“We stopped in with friends after a sporting event and had an excellent experience. Our waiter, Brian, was on top of things and was able to handle our large group pretty easily. The food came out in waves, but everybody's meals were hot and perfectly curated. Wish every experience at a eatery was like this one.“

“love this spot nice atmosphere“

“Great food and the drinks were delicious“

“Wonderful, friendly Irish Pub. Ray the bartender is so amazing! Knows my name and makes a great orange Jameson and cranberry. We will be back!.“

“I love this place! It’s our go-to spot when we go out as a family. The workers are always so nice, and everything about it is great. We visit all the time because the staff makes it such a welcoming experience. Definitely check it out you’ll love it!“

“You must come and check it out yourself 😺“

“Kia was our service and when i tell you she is the bomb.com. She made my family feel like we was the only ones she was attending too. She had 4 other tables, but she made all the tables feel like we was top priority. She’s very amazing with children and you can tell she really loves her job. The manger Steven (i think that was his name) came and checked on the table and let us know Kia is definitely one of the best. I’ll be back for sure on Kia shift.
Yall have to make sure yall keep her around.“

“I was so taken by the service, the food, and atmosphere that I HAD to paint the owner in oil. You’ll see a Florence style portrait of Mr. Cuddy EARNED not necessarily by him but by those hired by him serving hour after hour behind the bar. I feel cared for and loved when I am there and it’s the only chicken I trust in the area. The soup is the best.“

“Very accommodating, the staff are dope, from front to back of the house. Food is excellent, I recommend this for everyone looking for a new place to watch games, book events & just have a good time with friends“

“Food was good , service was good .“

“what a great place with delicious drinks and a wonderful tour.“

“The young ladies behind the bar are sweet, personable and professional. If you go twice, they'll remember your name and what you drink. And this may be a best-kept secret but the roast pork sandwich with long hots will CRUSH 90% of those in South Philadelphia. Doesn't need the cup of "jus" they include, but you can down it like a shot. Pro tip: Try subbing Cooper Sharp for Provolone.“

“great place! great crowd, great atmosphere , great staff! and they have beer flights! what more could you ask for! haven't been here in years and I'm definitely going to frequent this place a lot more“

“A home away from home for Commanders fans living in Philadelphia. Old Bay is featured heavily on the menu, as it should be. They easily accommodated our walk in party of 14 and put up with us playing "Hail To The Redskins" on the jukebox repeatedly.

*To the couple Commanders fans who left negative reviews, that's not cool and you're missing the joke.*“

“Perfect spot to hang out with friends and shoot pool. Friendly staff and outstanding food that is available even at late night hours.“

“This place is cool! Our band played there with one other band, and the sound was amazing! The atmosphere is super-comfortable. Just like a neighborhood hangout spot with pool tables, darts, lots of TVs with the game on. Real wood paneling - like a really welcoming, homey feel. All decorated for the holidays. You can just relax right into the place. And Archie is the coolest. The soundman and the bartender also were both stellar. Just a really cool place.“
