Food was okay, doesn’t have much flavor, I had the buffalo cauliflower tacos and it didn’t taste like much. Service was not good. The server didn’t come back to our table maybe once. Didn’t give us napkins, felt like she had an attitude while serving us. Also very over priced.

Customer service sucks. It took 15 min for me and my party of 2 to get our drinks. We asked the server to give us a minute to order our food and she never returned. We asked another sever and she said “I can’t take orders”

Sara crafts the most delicious Margaritas that are simply irresistible. I highly recommend making a reservation to secure your spot.The spiced beef nachos were not only delicious but also generously portioned; I suggest sharing them with a friend.Don't miss out on this vegan culinary delight!

I've been going to this place for the last three years. The portions are getting smaller and the price is increasing. The chorizo burger has less spice to it and seemingly more fries to accommodate the smaller burger.I loved it here and told everyone about it, but now it's becoming more out of my price range and general understanding of the worth of an item.Also the size of the empanada is what truly made me sad, as someone that frequents Latin American restaurants- it hurt my heart.

Bar bombon has been on my list for months and finally stumbled across it today with my cousin, spent hours at the bar— Ben made us the best margaritas to our preferred requests and was so sweet and attentive. Spicy quac lasted forever, so fresh and delicious! We sadly ate before coming but complimentary taste to the jackfruit quesadilla pieces were BOMB… we were eyeing the menu with full bellies but WOW!! Overall such a great experience, didn’t plan to spend hours here but we did and will be back very soon!! Servers are kind and Ben the bartender was awesome! thank you

It's a small great place. Giving 3 stars across the board but 4 star reviews because of many variables.The food is vegan with plenty of gluten-free options if you're into or need that. It is a small menu but well thought out with solid options. Good cocktail and drink menu and the rim choices on cocktails from salt, sugar, and spicy are worth having fun with.I find that often with vegan places, the food quality, taste & texture can get in the way of delicious or really good. Several meals across a couple of months and each was enjoyable, and food is not impacted.As for atmosphere, usually, tight places are annoying, yet this works. The bar is super narrow, yet you're comfortable sitting at it, and the people constantly walking past behind you won't matter. The tables are close together, and the place is slightly on the louder side, but all of it together works well, adding to a casual, busy yet intimate dining experience.Worth going and getting to know the place.Vegetarian options: All vegetarian.. not just optionsDietary restrictions: The menu has blue diamonds next to all the items that can be gluten-free.. I'd day over 80% of the menu has this available.

Was just there and hour ago. Worst experience for a vegan food. Prices are like fine dining and food and drinks are like just average restaurant. Miniature cups of drink , only good thing about the restaurant was the waitress. Philly cheese steak you don’t taste cheese at all, Spanish best balls - cold balls with warm tomatoes sauce. Also an fyi - most of the restaurants in Philly magazine don’t live up to their name. Just saying…

I’ve eaten here many times over the years & Bar Bombón never disappoints! The Latin-American vegan fusion is such a clever & delicious concept & is best experienced via their empanadas, quesadillas, meatballs & similar dishes. Smaller plates meant for sharing, ideal for dates. My partner & I are huge on vegan restaurants, both being nearly life long vegans & BBB is a resounding thumbs up for us both. Quaint location & decor, friendly staff & consistently delectable food.Vegetarian options: Vegan menu, all plant based!

Food and drinks always come out great when I dine here! Good service and atmosphere given the size of the dining room. Everyone must try the Philly "steak" empanadas...

I've ordered from Bar Bombon from UberEats before, but eating at the restaurant was a different experience. The food came out quick and was amazing! I definitely enjoyed the "fish" tacos and philly "cheesesteak" empanadas. I will definitely be back!

We had a great late lunch here. Our waiter was very attentive and helpful. We got impossible tacos with chips and queso. I also got the margarita of the day (blood orange) with a spicy rim. The cocktail was delicious. It was very affordable there. The tacos were very good too. Each serving came with 2 tacos. Our daughter got loaded nachos. The chips are made there. The restaurant was nice and small, but not crowded feeling. I was very happy with our choice to try them!Vegetarian options: The menu is all vegan.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The food was great. I'm trying out different vegan restaurants and this was a welcomed treat. I will definitely be going back. And I would recommend Bar Bombón.
