Restaurants near Merion Station

“Absolute best deli I’ve ever been to in my life!!!!! If you haven’t been here on your way through PA, you’re missing the most delicious experience! This is a must!!!!”

“Drive thru line is insanely slow and can be long (especially at night). However, the food is always hot and fresh unlike the nearby McDonalds. If you place a mobile order, just go inside to pick it up.”

“Excellent Food & Amazing Service 👍👍”

“It was an unforgettable dinner. The moment I stepped inside, I felt as if I had been invited to a close friend’s or family member’s home for a warm, intimate meal. The space is small, cozy, and wonderfully personal. The two chefs prepared and served each course with perfect timing, offering fresh, beautifully crafted dishes one after another without a single moment of dullness.

It was a joy not only to taste the food but also to watch the careful, thoughtful preparation behind every plate. The flavors were excellent, the progression of courses felt seamless, and I left with that perfect feeling of satisfied fullness.

There is no doubt that this restaurant fully deserves its Michelin one-star rating. A truly memorable dining experience.

The only thing I found disappointing was that, although I mentioned it was our wedding anniversary when making the reservation, nothing was acknowledged at all. The staff’s prepared guests’ birthday cakes, special party hats, cards and even a moment where the lights were turned off so everyone in the room could celebrate together. In contrast, our table didn’t receive even a simple mention of our anniversary.”

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?”

“First time there, excellent food.”

“IT WAS AMAZING WTF ELSE DO YOU NEED?”

“I think I probably have had just about everything on your menu, and I loved everything. I also like that Stina is not pretentious.”

“Killer cocktails! We will be back!”

“Great restaurant - highly recommended”

“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.”

“Can’t beat the quality or authenticity of this place. Pancita is absolutely incredible and consomé was arguably the best I’ve ever had. You’ll struggle to find barbacoa this good even in Hidalgo.”

“The Food was Fresh ad Incredible”

“Awesome speakeasy style bar. Small (15ish tables plus bar space) and doesnt take reservations. Got lucky that there was a table open when we walked in as it was the last one. Booth was comfty, mood lighting was romantic, music was a bit odd for the setting (latin-ish vibes) but not distracting. Drinks were great, had the bartenders choice which resulted in a good interesting drink. Lots of liquor options too and snacking food looked solid.”

“This was a pleasant find on Christmas Eve, made single-handedly better by our waiter Fathi. Everything was delicious and his hospitality was unmatched. We had way too much to eat and can’t wait to go back.”

Has these awesome musical notes bike locks. Live music. Incredible beer and shot specials. Crazy cool interior. Awesome bartenders and patrons. Protect this place at all costs.”

I cannot wait to come back and eat here again! 😀 Traveled from Utah to come eat here! (plus visit my son, that surprised us with reservations) a must visit if you get a chance to go! 🦋”
