Came here with a friend for lunch and the food was both VERY reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. I got a mango-jackfruit smoothie and tried some of my friend's lemongrass tofu - both were fantastic. Will absolutely come back if I'm in Philly again!

Ordered lemongrass tofu with rice and it was fire 👌it came with a cup of soup at a reasonable price. Visiting from an area with a plethora of authentic Vietnamese restaurants and I’d say this place is on par with them, highly recommended!

This place is awesome, and I can't believe I didn't notice it until today, when I left the bank lol! I had the Poke bowl with tuna, which was delicious,and fresh! Welcoming, friendly, and gracious service, beautifully crafted presentation, generous portion, and good prices are some of the things that make this take out place a new favorite! Make sure to have cash or Venmo, or go to the atm at the bank across the street! I will def return to the Pop Up Cafe!
