“For the second year in a row, we hosted our family reunion dinner for 30 people in the China Wok's lovely event room on a Saturday evening. Everything was perfect due to owner Lin's attention to detail. She met in advance with me to plan the menu, taking into consideration our budget, dietary preferences, and the mixed age group of 2 months to 97 years. The decor was pretty, the servers were pleasant and helpful, our guests loved the food! The platters came out looking as visually pleasing as they were tasty. Nothing was too much trouble for Lin! We are grateful to the China Wok for the special time we shared with our family there.“
“Our server Ella was great, she took initiative to bring champagne glasses with her when greeting our table and followed with an ice bucket for our bottle with out being asked. She was knowledgeable about the menu and followed up frequently throughout our meal. The courses arrived quickly for service at 7pm on a Friday night. The food good. Suggestions would be for crostini or crackers with the antipasta and tuna tartar.“

“SIX DIFFERENT KINDS OF CRAB CAKES WHAATTTTT!!!! Smith Island Crab Cake (Tender Colossal Jumbo Lump Crab Meat. Ingredients are layered over the crabmeat, seasoned, and gently folded with a mild cream sauce to bind the meat) Rock Hall Crab Cake (Colossal jumbo lump meat, lightly seasoned, folded in a buttery cream sauce, egg washed, and breaded) Signature Crab Cake (A very traditional Maryland Style Jumbo Lump Crab Cake. "Our Original" Egg, mayo, seasonings and breadcrumbs) Premium Crab Cake (Jumbo Lump Crab Meat folded in a Turmeric Cream Mousse) Imperial Breaded Crab Cake (All Jumbo Lump Crab Meat in a mild cream sauce egg washed and breaded.) The Captains Mega Colossal Crab Cake (We start with Colossal Jumbo Lump Crab Meat, sweetened with Hellmann's mayo, gently secretly spiced, dusted in unseasoned American bread crumbs, flashed browned to perfection. You might think you just ate a dozen crabs!!!) If you check out their menu you can add a variety of seafood soups to your order, crab legs, lobster tails, now here is the caveat, you can bring any of this home, but it will be uncooked, you have to cook it youself. I had two of the crab cakes a while ago and I remember enjoying them. I definitely plan on getting more of their items in the future. As I always used to say, "Live long and eat seafood!", does anything else really matter? SYOY!!!“
“I’ve been going here for years with my wife. Great food and good prices. It’s always nice to support a Muslim business.Dietary restrictions: My wife can only have dairy free and they’ve always accommodated her and her preferences. And the food doesn’t taste any less great!“
“Bacio strikes again! Kudos to our friends Pam and Chef Robert! Thier pre-cooked Valentine's Day Dinner for 2 was amazing! From the salads all the way thru to the desserts, every course was fantastic. And the best part is that the portions were large enough that we will switch our entrees and get another full meal out of it! Thanks again for a great dinner!“
“had dinner with family tonight. My Po-Boy was outstanding. I appreciated the fries which were crispy (I prefer fries which break when folded) We also had fried shrimp, and a shrimp/clam platter. We left very satisfied, and hope to come back some time“
“A great family run business. The pub seems to be clean and well maintained. A great selection of beer with some rare beer options. The food was surprisingly good with huge portion sizes and decently priced. Staff was friendly and attentive. A great place for food and/or drinks“
“We got the mixed grill to share between 3 people and had more than enough food. I liked the chicken skewers and meatballs the best. This was the perfect choice to try a little bit of everything. We added a side of fries and they were perfectly crispy. I would definitely come back!“
“The food was very good and the service wonderful. But, the $12 salad was undersized for the price as compared to other restaurants, along with a $10 dessert, and the $4.25 plain coffee is definitely overpriced. Entrees are a bit pricey but in line with other restaurants and the inflation imposed on everyone. Drinks are in line with the pricey cocktails at most places now. Our entrees were very good.“
“Came here with my mom from a recommendation her friend gave. We really enjoyed the sushi! The prices were very affordable, we paid less than $40 for two entrees and two soups. However the cleanliness was a little suspect for me. You can see the area where the chefs prepare the sushi, and it reminded me of a Waffle House.“
“Came here today on my birthday 4/23 at random since golden Corral was packed googled food near by found them.. Was definitely a pleasant surprise the service was awesome quick and friendly not to mention the food was great highly recommend comeing here i know we will definitely become regulars“
“Born and raised in Philly and this is the best cheesesteak I've ever had. Absolute must try if you want a cheesesteak in Bucks County. I can only imagine how good the Seafood must be. Family owned small business. I will be recommending to everybody I know. 10/10“
“I know seafood establishments are popping up all over the place now, and I can say I think I've just about tried every one of them. I must say this has been one of the best ones that I've had thus far. The crabs' legs were fresh, the shrimp was a nice size and not overcooked ?, the broccoli was nice and crisp, the corn was amazing, the potatoes was just right and the overall seasoning was perfect ??. And the customer service was excellent. Will definitely recommend this restaurant as one of the best seafood spots in Philly. Hat's off to the cook, owner, and staff.“
“Hey there! Thanks for letting me join you on this food truck journey. I must say, I'm impressed with the attention to detail in your food truck. Everything looks so fresh and delicious. I must say, I agree with everyone who says your food is the best in Philadelphia. Your food is so flavorful and cooked to perfection. I can't wait to try some of your special sauce.As someone who loves gyros, I'm always on the lookout for the best ones in town. And I'm excited to hear that your food truck is the best in Philadelphia. I can't wait to try your signature gyro, which is made with freshly grilled meat, homemade tzatziki, and so much more. It's like a feast for your taste buds.I love how you take pride in using only the freshest ingredients and cooking everything from scratch. It's clear that you put a lot of love and attention into every bite of your food. That's what sets you apart from other food trucks out there.So, if you're looking for the best food truck in Philadelphia, my vote goes to This is the king gyro food truck. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!“
Japanese • $$
“Authentic, delicious, affordable! Fresh, hand-battered shrimp tempura is a rarity these days. The batter is light, crispy, and savory. The house blend tempura sauce is sharp, savory, and enhances the flavor of the tempura. Most other places just fry up frozen tempura or frozen panko breaded shrimp. It's alright, but it can't compete with the authentically made version.Musashi is the real deal. I've been to many Japanese restaurants that are just Chinese restaurants larping as something else. I'm glad Musashi is so close by. Gone are the days of having to drive two hours or cross state borders to find a good Japanese restaurant with Japanese owners. I'm excited to try everything else on the menu!“
“This was my first visit to the New Olympics House. Last week I received a menu left outside my door.The menu was nicely prepared with beautiful monthly watering pictures. I was impressed by the amount of offerings and also a little worried because some restaurant offer a lot but food it not that good. So my brother and checked out the New Olympia House.Parking (as far as I know is street parking only). We were able to find a spot close to restaurant.We arrived around noon during a weekday.We were greeted by two hostesses and seated immediately.Our waitress greeted us introducing herself (I am sorry I can't remember her name). She spent a lot time going over the menu with us which we appreciated.When our food arrived it was well prepared. I ordered the pull pork sandwich with fries. My brother ordered chicken sandwich.We were both impressed with the size of the sandwiches. The food was delicious. We both left with "doggie bags". My brother ordered a grilled pork crop to take home for dinner.Also there is a bar in the restaurant. Next I visit I will order a beer.“
“It's not a typical strip mall restaurant. We decided last minute to go here and were pleasantly surprised. Arrived just after opening and initially felt under dressed, but after the owner greeted us, we quickly forgot our discomfort as we took in the nicely decorated room and tables. The menu has plenty of options, including a list of specials plus a few items he mentioned that weren't listed but may have been because it was the Friday after Valentine's Day. We opted for the Veal Parm. My husband got the Clams Casino appetizer, which he said was the best he's ever had. The salad with house dressing was packed with veggies along with the lettuce, and the house dressing was definitely not from a bottle. My barley soup was flavorful as was everything we had. The large piece of veal was sliced thin, which may have made it not as tender as it could have been, but I still enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the seasoned mixed veggies I chose instead of the pasta. The tiramisu is a cake version but very good. That and the chocolate cake do have a liquor flavor added to them, which is strong but not overpowering to me, but may be for some. We will definitely return to try something new.“
“It was great, from the staffs to the food, everything was splendid, and it did in fact exceed my expectations! The wait time was fast and so was the atmosphere around me. If you would want a quiet place with some aesthetic, this would be the place for sure!“
“THE BEST CHILAQHILES VERDE I'VE HAD. I've been looking all over the Philly area for a place that makes good chilaquiles, and I finally found it at El Bronco. The steak was well seasoned, the sauce was spicy and had a good amount of vinegar, even the beans were very good. The only reason I can't give this place five stars is because my food that I ordered online wasn't ready until 30 minutes AFTER my pickup window ended. I'd recommend ordering well in advance and counting on a bit of a wait for your food, but I'll definitely be back.“
“We have been visiting this halal cart since they have opened , since 3 years and we have their best and some times not their best as well. Our go to halal cart in town. Their Chicken over rice is amazing, and its even delicious when the chop the chicken into small pieces, thats how I prefer itand thats how I enjoy it to the best. The problem is we end up not getting chicken as requested (small pieces) as they close the grill around 7pm and most of the times we end up going past 8pm.Even for Vegetarian peopletheir falafel are pretty amazing. They arefresh and tasty. Their white sauce is what brings their whole dish together.As we have been to this halal cart handfulnumber of times, i am not going tolies sometimes their food was not up to the quality , may be 2 out of 10times they did not reach the expectations.However this is one of the best halal cart food I have tried and I would keep visiting whenever I crave it for good halal food, which is pretty often once in 2 weeks or once in a month for sure.I just hope their quality of food never falls down. Initially they had 4.8rating, now its like down to 4.6. Hope they get back to top.“
“Legitimately delicious! Authentic flavor and very fresh preparation made us very very happy. The complimentary chips and salsa was delicious, the chips were freshly cooked. The birria and the enchiladas were awesome and the empanadas are top notch.“
“I don't usually like eating out. These kind of restaurants are not my thing but my sister wanted to go for her B-Day. We enjoyed ourselves and the server (I think her name was Jennifer) was good and we tipped her accordingly. The manager acknowledeged us personally...nice vibe.“
“Merriam-Websters collegiate dictionary defines hospitality as the following:": the activity or business of providing services to guests in hotels, restaurants, bars, etc."Hospitality is the bare minimum of what I received during the shift that Jessica and Kathleen worked. I would say the shift wasn't excellent, I would say it was perfect. I would say that this bar doesn't set the bar for service when these two work, I would say it is the measuring stick that the bar (on a limbo level) needs to be set at.Not only did the (beautiful by the way) bartenders make me feel welcome, they made me feel like family. I honestly couldn't imagine another place I'd rather be on a Monday night. Home? For what? A disappointing evening of marital stress and ultimate regret? I'd rather be here, at a place where like Norm, Sam and Diane in another town many years before established a repor where everybody truly knows your name.And it's not just the service. The food. The creative specials along with the iconic staples keep this bar hip and fresh. 20/10. Chef Alan kills it.But overall, this is the place you need to be. I'll probably come back. I'll probably bring a friend or two. But if I don't, I want my review etched in the halls of history long after we are all gone, this is the place to be. These are the people to see. They say to be the man you have to beat the man - find me a bar better, find me a bar that beats this place, and I'll try it.“
“Had veal parm , they need to make better red sauce. Had a lemon drop martini second time first time priced at 8.50 , tonite 9.00 ? My dinner came with dessert . Chose rice pudding while the taste was excellent the rice was under cooked . I would still eat here . Friendly “
“Excellent Service and Quality with a smile! Our server Dani, was the key to delivering a great experience. Prime Beef, Fresh Shrimp, a perfectly flame-grilled Burger and a garden fresh salad was perfect for our dinner appetites which we enjoyed in the Bar area. Thank you Dani, see you again soon...“
“Lets first start off with customer service "Amazing" Food "out of this world " those spicy garlic chili smoke wings will have you fighting someone 10/10. The Hibachi steak fried rice ?I'm speechless...this was my first time eating from here and i wanna hug everyone in there, I love this place already #letsSupporthemUptown. Keep up the great work congratulations on the continued success...I'll see y'all again!!!“
“My Husband and I went there the Customer Service was Great they were very professional and nice.The Food is omg sooooo good we had the honey lemon pepper wings, loaded mussels , veggie platter and snow crab cluster platter. Everything was nice and hot, seasoned to perfection. We was so satisfied y’all have Customers forever.Very Nice Place go there I guarantee you will not be Dissatisfied.“
“Before I start the review, just wanted to state I found this place randomly. The customer service was incredible. There is no sit down eating but we ate in the car. The food was so amazing that we didn't take pictures. Had 2 lobster Rolls, soup and fried shrimp. Everything was delicious.“
“It’s been a few months since I last ordered from Asian Fresh Kitchen. As they say first impressions last !! The first time I ordered here the food was amazing, the second not so good. Last night feeling under the weather, I decided to give Asian Fresh Kitchen another shot.II ordered General Tso’s chicken, vegetable, lo mein, one shrimp roll, and two orders of chicken on a stick. I ordered on Uber eats and within about 20 minutes the driver arrived. the food was delivered in a paper bag that was sealed. The food was piping hot. I was really impressed with how well it was packaged. To my delight General Tso’s Chicken was moist, savory, spicy and delicious the broccoli was perfect !!! The vegetable lo mein was very tasty ? The noodles were cooked to perfection !! Chicken on the stick was a first for me. I thought that it was Salty, crunchy and very tasty and lastly the shrimp roll was moist and delicious.I’m not sure what happened this past summer when something just seemed to change here but regardless these pictures and this tasty food says that Asian Fresh Kitchen is back on track serving delicious savory Chinese food !! Take a look ? you know your mouth is watering, so do what’s right and make that phone call and order some of this amazing food !!! Well Done Asian Fresh Kitchen !!“
“I thought this place was closed all this time. Wow. No long talking, I give my cheese steak a 6.5/10. It's giving "papi store" with the soft bread, I know people love that style. The cheese fries blew my mind away. And I'm literally about to order some again (a few days later). Idk y'all, it's really something about that wiz. Delicious!“
“For a fast food seafood restaurant this place is legit good. The only thing I have tried I didn't like is the Mac n cheese. The fries and sweet potato fries are delicious. My favorite thing to order is the shrimp boil with broccoli. The broccoli is absolutely delicious and much healthier than ordering fries. The shrimp is always fresh and some of the best I've ever had. I've The prices are extremely reasonable.“
“Gallo's has been my "go to" seafood restaurant in NE Philly for years. My favorites are the broiled seafood combo & crab imperial. Their seafood bisque is the best & don't forget the cheesecake! Always fine service & a satisfying meal.“
“Did some plumbing work for these guys with the previous company I worked for. Being that my wife and I had just moved to Riverside(late 2018), I had always wanted to try this place. Finally got around to it tonight and boy they definetly not disappoint. We ordered take out, food was delivered hot and fresh. Very flavorful, authentic and delicious. We have a 2 pizza spots, a Chinese spot, bar spot and now I have found my go to Mexican restaurant ?. Keep it up guys!!!“
“The food was delicious. I got the fried citrus scallops, crabs cakes, bang bang shrimp, and crab pizza. The bartender Erin was friendly, as was the server John. I highly recommend this place. If this place was by the beach it would make millions.Parking: Nice size parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp may be a little steep for some.“
“If I could give more than 5 stars I will, I left the place and was more than happy, the food ,tea , and dessert was perfect. The waitress Delara was so helpful and so was the owner, they were kind to us the whole time. The best I ever tasted ?good luckKid-friendliness: They were so kind with the kids and were playful with my son“
“Being an Indian, I've tried a lot of Indian/Pakistani food throughout my life. Living in NE Philly brings us a new Indian restaurant every once in a while. Kazi's Tandoor & Grill is a restaurant/caterer that keeps things simple. At least that's what Kazi says. However, there is something addictive about the flavor in their foods. The food seems so simple, yet it's delicious. The secret is the imported spice mix that Kazi uses for his dishes and keeping everything else simple. The restaurant is currently best for takeout and catering orders. The only issue is that the location has no parking, and there is very little room to dine in. The food is priced perfectly for the quantity and quality received, so it attracts so many customers. I usually keep my orders simple by ordering the chicken biriyani, tandoori naan, and chicken tikka masala, but I have tried other entrees, and they are also delicious.“

“Generous servings of delicious seafood cooked perfectly. No salt is added to fried food which I absolutely love. Control your own sodium! Not greasy and every bite is heaven! We get the seafood combo the prices are EXCELLENT for the quality. Definitely recommend“
“Stopped in after not being in the neighborhood for many years. This place is still one of , if not the best, local spots to catch a game or have a beer. Tons of TV's, huge bar, ample dining area, and clean bathrooms. I was here pretty early afternoon on a Friday, so not very busy, but the staff was busy prepping for the weekend. I watched them wipe down nearly every surface. Very clean, fresh, nice atmosphere.“
“My friends and I love coming every month to the wine pairing dinners. Chef comes around and chats with everyone making sure that we are all enjoying our wine and dinner. We’ve been doing this for about a year now and would never miss a month, we really enjoy coming for this event and will continue as everything is always so wonderful making this a full experience each and every time“
“One of the best pizza places around! Longhitano's is a small restaurant that has seating, and good service for dining in. They also have a huge take out business. They may not have as many pizza choices or specialty pizzas as other places but you don't need them. Longhitano's is one of our all time favorites.“
“I've bought fish here several times and it's always good, but today I actually ate their prepared food and a couple oysters. The food we got was great. We got clam strips, the fried shrimp platter, the stuffed blackened salmon platter and 6 oysters. Everything was very good. I would definitely recommend it to scratch that seafood craving itch.“

“The steak was awesome Seafood hoagie. I’m sorry I don’t remember what he called it the damn thing or something like that. I really enjoyed it. The gentleman who made the sandwich was really nice and personable. Their credit card machine wasn’t working I only had a $20 bill and he let me go for the three dollars. He says he’s about community and I believe that he’s been there for quite some time I will be going backand I would recommend it“
“Cool time hitting up the original Chickie & Pete's! Like the older, smaller, dive bar feel much better than the more modern large scale restaurants. Could be in my head, but the fries seemed fresher and crispier than other locations. Had the roasted pork sandwich - wow, huge and delish! Even grabbed a sweet Chickie's Eagles tee for my girlfriend while there. Oh, and free street parking on Friday early evening was a breeze.“
“I’ve been going there for the past three years the food there and the breakfast is delicious. The people are real friendly. It’s a good place to go to with the family. I definitely recommend it to other people.Kid-friendliness: They interact with the kids speak very nice. Specially the gentleman that works here the tall guy. I forgot his name but he’s still unblock. Very nice guy.“
“Tremendous atmosphere that's equal parts festive and lively. The staff is attentive from arrival to departure and the food is fresh, prepared diligently and quite tasty. The bar has a solid selection of beers and the libations are spirited.Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible.“
“Delicious food for sure the wings and fries were so tasty. The macaroni salad was the bomb not to sweet just the perfect taste. Good prices to. Loved loved considering the fact i haven't been here for years it was great. loved?????????????“
“Very laid back chill Quiet atmosphere great hospitality and peaceful very much relaxingKid-friendliness: The atmosphere was family kid friendly such a cool spot for everyone plus it's BYOB IF WE CAN HAVE WINE I'm coming EVERY TIME ?“
“So thankful to Mila & Melody Restaurant for the best food at our wedding. Not only was it presented beautifully but it tasted it as well. From the black caviar potatoes to the lamb chops.. everyone was drooling. From my wedding in 2021 to my sisters in 2008.. Melody has not disappointed but has only gotten tastier! Would definitely recommend booking them for any of your parties, holidays, and/or weddings. Mila was very personable and attended to any needs/changes we had, she was like family. Thank you, Mila & Melody!!! We will remember our wedding with only amazing memories.“
“This place lives up to its name, the sea food is good and they do serve snow crab legs and their not afraid to put them out there unlike other places, most of the food is hot or warm very rare to get any cold food here.Parking: It's a big parking lot at a small shopping center, had space for at least 100 cars.“
“We have been looking for a place equivalent to Lilly’s in Glenside, since they are closed. I think when they open back up, we are still going to come to this place. Their tikka masala sauce is to die for and their mango chef special sauce is just amazing with so many flavors happening in the mouth. Prices are decent and quality and consistency is A+++Two time customer and we’ll be back. My husband has high expectations for food - it’s hard to find places that he likes enough to go back. This has definitely impressed him. Can’t wait to come back again soon!!Vegetarian options: We got the Paneer Tikka Masala and the Mango Veg Chef Special. Very nice mix of vegetables and they are tender and not obnoxious like most vegetarian options at other venues. The Aloo Papri Chaat is only $5 and is citrusy and savory flavorful at the same time.“
