Grace and Proper

When I walked by this place, I noticed it was Portuguese and I went to Portugal on my own a few years ago. It brought back some pleasant memories. Then I saw pictures and then I went in afterward. The alcohol is top notch, the food is not a lot but not too little and superb quality. Options for imported items and food combinations that blend well together for savory. Probably sweet treats if they offer any offer a similar experience but my stomach is only so big. Staff is friendly and they are on top of their game to let us know beforehand that tip is auto added 20% and have signage on their bar table too. Food is available until midnight which I love because it is quality food and not some completely unhealthy snacks only or nothing. I feel comfortable making the trip to visit this classy bar, especially if I can hang with a small group of friends or one friend because of all these set up natural "accommodations " in place. The orange wine was more like a white wine with a tinge of orange- not my personal fave but nothing wrong with it. I tend to prefer more sweeter tasting drinks. As you may know, fresh oranges are known in Portugal as well as the pastels de natas which they also offer here. I would be surprised if fresh orange juice is not an option here but I suspect it is. Grace and Proper, you help make Philly and Portugal proud!

Absolutely delicious drinks and a stand out wine and spirits menu. The vibe is very casual and feels like you're neighborhood watering hole, but it's much more sophisticated feeling and looking inside and it makes me feel great to be hanging out here. While the cocktails and bartenders are great, don't overlook the food menu! Snacks and bigger bites have amazing flavor with high quality ingredients on "easy" foods (bar nuts, bread/butter, sandwiches, soups!!!). Don't sleep on here for a light bite or do what my mom and I did and order a lot lol.

Stopped by this place after I had no luck at booked places around Little Italy. But I got lucky here, it's such a great place!! Lots of yummy bites. My absolute favorite was the white bean stew, dip some bread in it and it's so filling. I could seriously eat this every day!!!This is a bustling place with great drinks and servers are very helpful and friendly. This isn't a place for a sit down meal, but for chatting/meeting up with friends/getting some apps/tapas.

It's the correct vibes. Chill. Great service. Great food. It's the stable you need to go to

A great spot to grab drinks but I HUGHLY recommend brunch! My Bloody Mary was so good (add on the millionaire bacon!) and the MEC was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had. The daily donut was a very good shareable side to split with a friend. The cocktails are so unique and creative. There are options for any type of liquor. The bar service is great and all items come out relatively quickly. The staff is very friendly and chatty. Overall, a great queen village/Bella vista spot!

Came in late on a Monday night before closing for a quick drink to take advantage of their late-night Monday drink & bites specials!The bartender was a little awkward in my opinion, but wasn't necessarily unfriendly. I just got a vibe that was a little off, but overall as a business, our party was very grateful they didn't make a big fuss about us coming 30 minutes before closing. We were respectful in the fact that we didn't wanna order anything that took too long nor required the kitchen to do a lot of work. I ordered the Boiler Maker (mezcal sipping drink) and my partner and friend ordered the Madeira. All smallish drinks to be consumed, but this was a nice little vibe and pit stop. We also ordered the Mortadella and another bread & meats type of place. Overall - our little quick stop here to end our Monday night was great.

Great spot to hang out with friends. Casual vibe with rustic interior. There are more outdoor seatings to enjoy beautiful weather.We were sitting by the bar, the bartenders were really attentive. Besides them, there was a guy who prepped some food from the food station right in front of us, who could elaborately explain the menu and answered our questions. We felt right at home. The food menu is simple and does not many varieties. However, the drinks are very elaborate as evidenced by a whole array of liquors displayed at the bar They had some special menu displayed on a small board.Porto Tonico : really good summer drink. Very refreshing and not too strong.Pickled carrots with chili: spicy with balanced acidity and saltiness. I wish the portion was much bigger.Special menu item: asparagus with green goddess. So delicious, perfectly cooked asparagus served on a creamy goddess aioli. I uses bread to soak up that awesome aioli.Meatballs: definitely the highlight of my dinner. The meatballs were a bit dense but the star was the sauce. It was thicker than normal tomato sauce but it was garlicky and full of flavor and had some spicy kick. It was served with toasted crusty bread to soak up that sauce. Highly recommended.My husband had bufana. It had slices of roast pork which in my opinion was a bit tough.Pasteis de Nara was served warm and dusted with powdered sugar. Nice custard. Good way to end the night.Gratuity is already included in the bill. One of the bartenders told us about it while giving us the check.In my opinion, the food is a bit pricey . $9 for 5 spears of asparagus.

Been meaning to check this place out for a hot sec. I love a good cocktail, and they have everything you can think of - classics and unique drinks and a dark but warm / cozy vibe. I would love nothing more to be in here when it's snowing at night. We got a spicy tequila drink, a whiskey one and even a carrot one (that one wasn't our fav). They had some pisco so I'm planning on getting a pisco sour next time I'm there!Bartenders are attentive and know their stuff. If you sit at a table, you go up to order at the bar. Food will be dropped at your table. The only knock is the bartenders had the sink behind the bar running the entire time I was there, which irritated me more than it should have!

Met my middle daughter here for drinks and food. I thought I saw somewhere that they offered happy hour and so that was the intention so arrived at 4 to save a bar seat for her. After receiving the menu, I noticed no happy hour and upon inquiry learned that it doesn't exist. It was fine, though. The drinks are reasonably priced and the tapas offer all one needs for sharing small bites and that's what we did. I love the space. There is a long bar, beautiful, old-style-European decor and a very intimate feel. The restaurant was filled by 530 and truthfully I got there at 415 and there were already a few tables and bar seats taken. The menu is wonderful. Lots of tapas choices with delicious breads meats and cheese. I ordered Boquerones with peppers and olives to start. Delicious. Also manchego with drizzled honey and pistachios. We saw the meat and chips order delivered to a customer sitting next to us and that became the next order. The chips were so crispy and seasoned with truffle oil with delicious cured meat spread throughout. So good! The cocktails were so on point and the list is extensive! We also ordered a glass of wine and then ended our evening with a cream filled doughnut that was perfectly creamy and doughy but not too sweet. This is a great spot!

Fantastic cocktail bar. Went to Angelo's put in an order had 45 mins to kill. Wandered around and stumbled upon this place. Well run establishment with a great staff. Can tell they truly care about their product. Asked the bartender for something not on menu because my mom is difficult. Not sure who made it but ended up being one of the better cocktails I've had. Highly recommend
