“Vegetarian options: Very few vegetarian dishes, but I knew that going in. It's a Southern inspired restaurant with a heavy focus on meat and seafood dishes - ribs, chicken, short rib, crawfish, shrimp, etc. I made it work and was not the least bit disappointed. The service was excellent and the drinks were delicious. The blue cheese stuffed olives in the martini were incredible.“
“The Oyster House in Philadelphia offers an exceptional dining experience that exceeds expectations. From start to finish, every dish was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious, leaving no room for disappointment. The attentive and knowledgeable service added to the overall enjoyment, with staff providing superb explanations of menu items. Without a doubt, it's been a long time since I've had such a perfect meal. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience in Philly.“
“Estia is an unbelievably great experience! Our server, Saki and the rest of the staff were beyond helpful and accommodating. We took our daughter and a friend to celebrate her graduation and were very pleasantly pleased from stepping in the restaurant to leaving. Saki, took the time to connect with each of us providing friendship and guidance on how to enjoy their restaurant and our experience to the maximum extent. Make a reservation and then go tuck into great food and a life experience you will not forget.“
“Our server Elizabeth, along with all others who took care of us, created a spectacular experience for our family. Our celebration was special and they were sure to enhance it, including a special card for the guest of honor. Our meals were spectacular from drinks to desserts.“
“Everything is perfect. Foods delicious, servers are kind, atmosphere is beautiful. If you want to try Turkish cuisine, you should try here. I had mixed grill. Lamb sish and chicken sish were so soft and juicy. Rice was really good with döner.As a starter Arnavut ciğeri, ezme and cheese rolls were amazing.For desert I can definitely recommend Kunefe.You won’t regret.“
“We had the best service with Kate! She gave us tips on what to order and ahead of time was dead on. We started with a cocktail and had a glass of wine with dinner. We split the spicy chicken empanadas, delicious, however, we did not detect the spice. We split the green chili Caesar. Honestly, the best Caesar in town. I do t see how they get it so cold and crisp, it's amazing! We then each had a ceviche. The baby shrimp, which were much bigger than anticipated, such wonderful flavor! My daughter had the crab, the server suggested mixing it right away to get the sauce mixed in. Very good! It did need more liquid. We simply poured the extra shrimp sauce in the crab, it was superb after that. The tomato on the shrimp just gives it more moisture and such a good flavor! We can't wait to go back!“
“Very small intimate space with the open kitchen directly on the floor. Had an incredible experience here! The staff was super friendly and bantered with us all night. The stand out to me was the scallop toast, it practically melts in your mouth. Though everything we had was excellent flavor and presentation wise. I will absolutely be back!“
“Really great. I had the Chongqing spicy broth, wagyu, head on prawns, scallops, and lamb as my meats and went crazy in the self serve area. Great quality meats and vegetable selection. Broth was good, service was good. I had to wait for about 1 hour because you cannot make a reservation for a 2 top, but it was well worth it. I left completely satisfied for 40 dollars plus tax, no uncharged. Highly recommended.“
“What a wonderful experience we had here. We had a reservation at 8:30pm, luckily for us we were the only ones eating at that time for the omakase. The chef was able to make all the sushi and serve us quickly, which was nice. All the fish was fresh and tasted delicious ?. Kimchi Omakase is truly a gem for the price. I will be back, I recommend you give them a try.“
“We've been here several times since it opened, and have experienced good service and food each time. Several of the dishes have been on the menu each time, but some have been tweaked with different ingredients, making them a little different (even though the original was already worth trying again). The "Brown Butter" dessert, the name of which sounded rather unappetizing on our first visit, turned out to be one of the highlights. Definitely try it. Prices are also reasonable, for a more upscale establishment.Kid-friendliness: It's a quiet, intimate environment. Go for a date night and leave the kids with a sitter.“
“This space is breathtaking. From the first few steps in, you know it’s going to be a good food experience. Meticulous detail on decor and the dishes. We had an oyster appetizer, fresh and well treated. We tried their pasta dishes and the spicy chicken sandwich and neither disappointed. Hands down best restaurant in the city.“
“The best restaurant in all of Philly. From the exceptional service to the to-die-for food, this place is a hidden gem that you need to experience The vibe is authentic, and the drinks are delicious. Just make sure you save room because you won't want to miss out on their desserts!“
“Finally got to try out Friday Saturday Sunday and overall had a good time, but wasn't blown away. Service was solid throughout and the drinks we tried were all tasty. My issue is that, when compared with other similar multi course options in Philly at the same price range, I wasn't impressed with the food. Everything was prepared perfectly fine, but overall dishes were either on the blander side (such as the fish and desserts) or odd (such as the sweetbread). The tortellini was fantastic though and a standout.Would I come back? Sure, if friends wanted to go. But there are other prix fixe restaurants I prefer in Philly at the moment.“
“I saw this place on social media so wanted to check it out. You have an amazing idea here. I thought the Z thing was only for the menu but they have their employees substituting Z’s for everything. It’s funny, it’s an experience. Great customer service IMO.Y’all need to update your address or business page on google maps, this location shows one place. I saw another location on your website, this review is for the truck at 3400 Fox St. I’m not even sure what this business page address is for. Maybe this is an old location?Onto the chicken cheesesteak. I got one with fried chicken tenders inside, lettuce, and I think they put some kind of hot sauce as well. The bread this comes on is incredible. If you want anything HEALTHY, DO NOT come here, I’m reading that it’s deep fried bread. Whatever they do to it, I could’ve ate it alone. The fried chicken inside is seasoned well. It’s kinda too much and falls apart as a result but who cares, eat some first with a fork then eat the rest. I got fries here but they were just okay. I want to come back and try something else.“
“Alpenrose in Philadelphia is an absolute delight! From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a cozy Alpine retreat. The menu is a culinary journey through the Alps, featuring hearty and delicious dishes that warm the soul. Whether you're indulging in their famous fondue, savoring a perfectly cooked schnitzel, or enjoying one of their delectable desserts, each bite is a taste of Alpine perfection. The ambiance is charming and welcoming, with rustic decor and attentive staff that make you feel right at home. Plus, the extensive beer and wine selection perfectly complements the meal. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving authentic Alpine cuisine, Alpenrose is the perfect destination for a memorable dining experience“
“I went here with 2 of my friends for the first time for their Happy Hour (4-7 pm). We arrived early and was seated right away. Our server Jasmine was very nice. She made great food recommendations. Drinks were delicious and so were the items for Happy Hour. We will definitely go here again. Love this place again.“
“Had a great time here. Gabby was super welcoming and friendly. I have to admit, I was intimidated walking into a steakhouse of this caliber, but gabby made it so so so much better. I loved spending time with her. I wish my wife would spend time with her. Gabby is so great :).“
“We go to Ocean Prime every year for a special occasion. The food is always delicious. They have valet parking which is nice. This year, the service was slower than usual. However, it seemed like the waitress was running around. Therefore, it may just be understaff. We also told the hostess it was my birthday. I guess the message was not received to our server unfortunately:/ Two other tables looked like a birthday was being celebrated because we saw a little cake and candle being served. That was a little upsetting too. When going to a restaurant like ocean prime, you have higher expectations for service.Dietary restrictions: The waitress did ask if we had dietary restrictions“
“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!“
“THIS is the place to be.What a wonderfully warm and friendly atmosphere, from the hostess to the servers to the other guests. Cute decor with a lot of tables that are in close proximity to one another.THIS is the place to eat.OHHH-EMMM-GEEE the food is incredibly delicious. The portions are generous. The menu selections are great and it’s difficult to choose - and then they have daily specials, which makes it even harder because you want to try it ALL!CASH only- no cards accepted.BYOB and the staff will gladly provide the appropriate glassware.Scannicchio’s is a family place…..the employees are all family and when you’re there you feel like family. MY family, we LOVE Scannicchio’s! It’s our family tradition. La mia famiglia. Mangia bene.Parking: Parking is where we you find a spot! Usually a spot can be found on Broad Street.“
“This place is just recently opened and received pretty good reviews, so I decided to try it out.everything we ordered was tasty with a generous portions, but the flavor was just too sweet for me and my boyfriend. I know Thai food is sweet, but this is another level of sweet. And the coconut noodle soup, it has no flavor and tasted so coconuty. It would have been better if they use rice noodle or glass noodle instead of vermicelli noodle.The ambience is plain, but it looks new and clean. The color of the building looks unattractive in my opinion.Service is good, but it takes awhile for the food to come out. They seem to be more busy with takeout orders.Overall, a decent Thai food with good portion and reasonable price. Tip: pay in CASH, you’ll get 5% off and they also accept Venmo.“
“The Rittenhouse Grill is was truly elegant and romantic. Live piano set the mood. Beautiful ambient lighting. Not to loud to converse. Our table order Ribeye steak (12 oz) Jumbo Lump Crab cake. Our sides were sautéed mushrooms, creamed spinach, roasted brussel sprouts and Corn. Just wonderful and delicious. Drinks were always filled up! Loved the excellent service and the kindness from the waiters and servers. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who loves elegant fine dining experience.“
“Nestled in the vibrant streets of Philadelphia, Charlie Was A Sinner. is a haven for those seeking a culinary experience that transcends expectations. With its inviting ambiance and innovative plant-based cuisine, this restaurant captivates the senses and leaves a lasting impression.Let's dive into the star of the show: the food. Each dish at Charlie Was A Sinner. is a work of art, meticulously crafted to delight even the most discerning palate. From the first bite to the last, every flavor sings in perfect harmony, showcasing the creativity and skill of the culinary team.However, I must address a notable aspect of our dining experience—the service. While the staff was friendly and accommodating, there were some shortcomings that impacted the overall enjoyment of our meal. In particular, our server seemed lacking in knowledge of the menu, unable to provide accurate information about certain dishes' ingredients. This became especially problematic when attempting to accommodate dietary restrictions at our table. Rather than consulting the chef or kitchen staff for clarification, our server seemed uncertain and unable to provide the necessary assistance.Despite this hiccup, I must commend the kitchen for their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our dietary needs once the issue was brought to their attention. Their dedication to ensuring a positive dining experience did not go unnoticed and ultimately salvaged what could have been a disappointing situation.In conclusion, while Charlie Was A Sinner. excels in its culinary offerings, there is room for improvement in the realm of service, particularly in staff knowledge and communication. Nonetheless, I remain impressed by the restaurant's commitment to delivering exceptional plant-based cuisine and look forward to returning for another memorable dining experience.“
“Dinner was well paced, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Our drinks were spot on, and our appetizers came pretty fast. The Vern Bone-in Wings had a nice bite, and the Thai Calamari was a nice twist. Another round of drinks and our dinner arrived ... hot and delicious.“
“One of the best and authentic Indonesian restaurants in the states. The other one is in Atlanta GA. As a native Indo, I highly recommend this place. Service was good. Space is quite tight but expected for Philly. Food is so good. So good. Get the ketoprak, Satay ayam/ grilled skewered chicken with special peanut sauce, for sure. We drove 9 hrs one way and it was worth it. Makasih banyak mbak2.“
“Went to SkyHigh to celebrate a friend's birthday. She was so surprised at the choice. The lunch selection was wonderful. We both ordered the cod which was prepared and presented well. The apple pie with pecan ice cream we ordered for dessert was delicious. Loved the crust - light and flaky. The ambiance and view of the city was spectacular. Table Service by Alecia was attentive. Definitely a place to visit again.“
“Such a cute little place!! Got the salt & pepper shrimp w/ rice, shrimp & pork dumplings, and lobster summer rolls. The cashier was soooo sweet and brought our food out to us. It was delicious. HAD to get more dumplings to go!! These pics don't do any justice“
“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!“
“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.“

“Honestly this is the best restaurant in Manayunk......this Ekta location is the definition of 'consistency' ... friendly, welcoming service and the food is always on point..... consistently great. Nothing on Main St or Ridge Ave compares .“
“Delish food - n of 3 times been so far and every time has been on point. Prices are definitely respectable (except $4 for extra pico) and the servers have always treated us nicely. Definitely recommend for Cantina food in the middle of Philly.“
“This place is one of my favorite spots that I go to especially when I want to have a good breakfast experience I highly recommend anyone to go here. If you are a big on French toast I highly recommend you try this places French toast. It's almost cooked perfectly every time I go.“
“We celebrated my sister in laws birthday here and the night could not have been more perfect! The ambiance was quaint and the staff was attentive. The chicken parm rose was crispy and juicy and the rose sauce was delicious. I cannot say enough great things about the meal, service, and atmosphere. I would highly recommend this place for date night or to host any small events!“
“Food was incredible, the atmosphere was lively and warm. I felt the service was super, helping me understand the menu and giving me tips with what I should order. This is the best Chinese food I've ever had, hands down. The winter melon tea is delectable btw“
“I have been to other Luke’s lobster location, this one is paritcularly spacious and food quality is consistent. I got the warm lobster roll, spicy honey lobster roll, and lobster mac.Most of the rolls are cold, so it is nice to try the warm lobster roll and have to order one of my favorites – spicy honey lobster roll as well. Lobster Mac on the other hand is alright, the pasta they used is quite unique but flavor wise is just okay, and not a huge fan of the breadcrumbs on top.“
“This place is a gem . Don’t know why it wasn’t busy as hell when we went there because the service was great, the food was easily the best Chinese I’ve had in the city, and the portions were at least twice the size of any other place I’ve been to. Expect family style and leftovers . Orange chicken , hot and sour soup , scallion ginger shrimp and salt and pepper tofu are all perfected versions of themselves.“
“Delicious food in an open air environment makes this place refreshing even in a metropolis like Philadelphia. They have some of the best unique dishes that I can’t find anywhere else. The staff is so kind. The umbrellas and beautiful flowers at each table helped make this place a relaxing space. I will definitely be returning.Parking: You may have to go around the block more than once, or park further away and walk a block, but the food is worth it. I was fortunate and found a parking right in front of the restaurant.“
“Overall the food was pretty good! The price-to-quantity ratio was a bit high though (although there may not be as much competition here in Philly). The savory crepes were really satisfying and the crepe is crunchy in a good way. Water fern dumplings are typically hard to find in the US, and it did not disappoint. The flounder was also cooked well and seasoned. The fried rice was alright, but not the best. The soft shell crab was definitely one of the best dishes here. The #1 dish in my opinion is the shaken beef. The meat is cooked to absolute perfection; it is truly tender and juicy while packed with flavor. I would definitely recommend and come back to this place for authentic Vietnamese food.“
“Great food! We had the jerk chicken and the surf and turf. The portions were huge and well worth the money. Slightly disappointed that they were out of plantains, but the other side dishes were very good. The cocktails were ok and on the cheaper side.“
“What a great place! The bar area is nice, but a little narrow for people to walk by. The bartender was friendly and attentive.We came for a party, and our server was excellent for such a large, somewhat loud party.The food was excellent and portioned perfectly. The mozzarella apps were very good. The crabcake was so good. I tasted some of the Branzino, and it was so buttery and tasty. Everyone else enjoyed their meals.We will definitely come back again.“
“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 !!“
“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 “
“To start off, there was no wait!! Already off on a good note. When we arrived, we were directed upstairs where there were bigger tables and a great atmosphere. We were seated by to coolest server who went on to explain how their hotpot works. She really took her time and answered our questions. I was treating son and granddaughter to dinner. It was my granddaughter’s first hotpot experience and she was excited. They had a tablet at every table so you can pick out what you want a send it straight to the kitchen, which I thought was a great touch. When the food arrived to our table, the cook time was explained to us about every item. Everything was really good. We had both the waygu brisket and the waygu ribeye. We also had the seafood combo which came with abalone. I had never had it before but always wanted to try it. It was pretty good. Both broths were really delicious. My granddaughter and I choose the mushrooms broth and my son choose the original bone broth. The only thing I didn’t like was that you had to share the sauces with the other tables. You also had to pay for all of your drinks (soda, juice, milk tea). Other than that everything else was all you can eat. We had a great time a would definitely be back. I highly recommend this place.“

“Penrose Cheesesteaks makes delicious food! They have everything you can think of. From Cheesesteaks, Burgers, Wings and Cajun seafood they have it! Plus, the service is quick and awesome and never had a bad order. I would recommend this place.“
“My husband and I were there tonight and we shared half moon pasta in a delicious sauce. He then had a stuffed veal chop that he thoroughly enjoyed, I had scallops over spaghetti in a saffron sauce! I definitely recommend going there! We will be back often!!!“
“Me & my fiancé really love Drunk Crab that yum yum sauce brings out there delicious fresh food. The staff is extremely friendly and well organized. The Hibachi meals are good. The crab ragoon is a delicious appetizer. We loved our drinks as well. The Mango juice & The homemade ice tea. Ummmmmmm good.“
“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.“
“We went there for dinner at around 7:30 pm and we asked them if their food is spicy, they said, it’s mild but they can make it spicy. They served the food with so much love and care that we never felt that we are eating at a restaurant. We would surely go there as a family. Wonderful service and sumptuous food. “
“Every dish was incredible. Just what we were looking for. My husband had the oysters and the scallops, I had the ceviche and sea bass. All fantastic. Impeccable service. Fun to eat at the open kitchen counter and watch the cools do their thing. I'd visit again.“
