“I went to Dienner’s on the recommendation of an acquaintance. It was absolutely delicious! I tried the original rotisserie wings and the smoked wings. The rotisserie were good, but the smoked wings were so good that I went back after finishing them and bought a pound to take home to DC. Don’t miss this spot in Reading Terminal. You’ll be sorry!“

“For me, Mr. Pig is now my go to Korean restaurant in my neighborhood. The space is big and well-ventilated - love watching the K-pop videos while enjoying. Staff is welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The menu is comprehensive, if you don't want to do BBQ, and you can pop in to just have a bowl of raemyung (cold noodles), so don't be intimidated. I just tried the Combo Beef BBQ for dinner, it was very good and plentiful. The namul (side dishes) are simple yet delicious - I personally love having the potato salad, my favorite. Everything was so yummy, I forgot to take photos. Next time.“

Food also comes with a bunch of side dishes that pairs so well with the meat. Service is also great, they will cook for you if you ask. Highly recommend this spot, can’t wait to go back!“

“Super chill environment. We were staying in Chinatown for a few days and we came back here twice. It is super easy to order and I recommend trying out a variety of each. We fell in love with the king sausage and the chicken skewers. They are well flavored and seasoned, and the meats were not dry at all— something I typically worry with skewers. Definitely recommend as you can eat these as a light meal, snack, or big meal!“

“I attended a recreational employee dinner hosted by my boss to lift morale. Most of us never heard of this bar/restaurant. I was intrigued since our company is a high end restaurant in Chestnut Hill. If the owner and former head chef picked it, it must be good, right? HELLZ YEAH!!!!!! The drinks were potent and yummy. The mac & cheese with brisket was sublime!!!!! The grand entrance of the 6ft (?) cheesesteak with fresh cut sweet potato waffle fries were spectacular. SPARKLERS!!!!! The garlic parmesan wings were super. The nachos were on point, light & crips, not stale or greasy. My ONLY disappointment which was shared with another friend at the party were the baby back ribs. We loved the sauce- just right, not too spicy/hot with tangy gooey yummyliciousness. However the ribs themselves were MOSTLY BONE. It was basically use licking the sauce and the few bits of meat off the top. It was hard to even find any separation to cut it to get the meat in between. I wish they offered SPARE RIBS which usually have more tender, juicy meat on the bone. Cause I LOOKED at the menu before ordering the baby backs. Hell, they coulda just put BBQ sauce on the brisket and I would have had a foodgasm. Maybe I'll do that next time on my own. That said, I will definitely go there again but I will never order the ribs. There are so many other perfect food offerings to keep me happy that I ain't mad, LOL. Also, the TVs provided viewer ankles for everyone regardless of where they sat. And the bar stools were COMFORTABLE too. Our waitress was attentive and professional but not aloof. The bartenders helped us out too with friendly responses. I apologize because I forget their names. After all, I was so snookered from the booze, I am happy that I still remembered to give this review. It's 3 days later and I am still thinking about the dinner. Give it a try! Many of us took SEPTA, its easy to get to from bus, subway, regional rail and cost less to PARK in Center City. That said, SEPTA getting ready to go on strike so...... don't care how you get to Tradesman, just TRY IT OUT!!!!!!!!!“

I love their onion rings. Ask for well done to make them extra crispy. Comes with a dipping sauce for the onion rings. Might be the best onion rings I've ever tasted. Definitely the best ribs in the Northeast, for sure!!!“

Service was quick, staff was so friendly and food was absolutely delicious. It started raining when we went to leave, and the manager went to get a lost and found box of umbrellas that hadn’t been claimed in some time, and gave us one so we wouldn’t get wet walking to our car. We will definitely be back to try other menu items and enjoyed our experience very much. Thanks again Fette Sau!“

“my platter was fine. I got a shrimp, chicken and beef platter but ordered mixed veggies instead; I’m assuming the platters normally comes with rice . The meat was good, the veggies were cooked perfect but I didn’t like that there were diced onions mixed with the peas carrots & corn (in addition to the grilled peppers and onions). The grilled onions and peppers were fine but didn’t like the extra diced onions. I’d definitely go back, just would probably stick to whatever normally comes with the platter (unless they offer grilled veggies instead of the peas/carrots/corn/diced onions)platter was made in timely manner (less than ten minutes) despite them being pretty busy when I went (around 2pm), the girl who took my order was nice.“

Burger was so juicy and so tasteful. Also there's no sports blaring on TV so you can enjoy conversation. Pizza was so good including the dough so I ate all the crust. I'll definitely come back here often?“
