Manayunk Indian Grille

★★★★☆ 4.4 (47)

"I visited on a Tuesday afternoon with a colleague. We came right before lunch hour ended, apparently the restaurant closes from 2:30-3:30. We walked in at 2:15 and we were greeted immediately. We were seated and proceeded to order vegetable samosas, garlic naan, shrimp tikki masala and lamb saag. All of the food came out quickly and piping hot. There were absolutely no complaints from our table about taste, all the spices of the dishes were on point! We're here in Philly for work, but will probably visit this restaurant again to try other things on the menu. The menu is very extensive.The ambiance is quaint and cozy. Also, we were given complimentary honey buns that were delicious. Try them you won't be disappointed."

Fairmount Flavors

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (295) • $

"As the other Yelpers have mentioned, the sweets here are a bit of a splurge. But to me, they're worth it.Personally, I'm addicted to their slammers with lime Italian ice. I'm also a huge fan of their popular gelato custard with vanilla ice cream and mango Italian ice. On a hot day, there's nothing more satisfying than having a smooth, silky, and refreshing vanilla custard ice cream along with the sweet and tangy mango Italian ice. Service here is pretty quick. Even when there's a line, they don't take too long to serve each customer. And since it's a take-out only spot, don't expect to get a seat inside their shop since there isn't one. Fairmount is a beautiful neighborhood with lots of scenic areas to enjoy your icy treats though."

Ice Cave

★★★★★ 4.9 (162) • $

"Went to Ice Cave after lunch one Sunday afternoon and got the matcha Taiwanese shaved ice. It was big enough to share with two other friends :) it was a tasty treat that hit the spot. Great fluffy texture but still very creamy and milky which satisfied my sweet tooth. It included mochi pieces and peanut and chocolate flavored candies. When I ordered I didn't realize there would be toppings and I didn't have the option to choose, but I still enjoyed the toppings that I got. They don't do sit down so make sure to plan ahead since it's getting colder. Luckily there are some nearby parks if you're looking for a place to sit. Really enjoyed Ice Cave! If I were to make a modification, it would be nice to have the option to pick toppings or for it to at least be clear on the menu!"

Southwark Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.2 (255) • $$$

"What an awesome dinner. Southwark had been on the list for a while and we were finally able to go. Perfect night to dig out back in the courtyard. Cocktails are great and clever. Wine list is small but solid and appropriate for the menu. The beef tartare toast appetizer was great, but the grated horseradish was a little too overpowering to appreciate the tartare. The duck was PERFECT. I say that rarely and it was perfect. Enough fat to want to eat the crisp. Little enough that fat wasn't your entire bite. Perfectly cooked. The chive mezze rigatoni was in a fantastic yet simple sauce, you'd want to drink it. The double cheeseburger was solid but the fries really stole the show. Ended the night with the corn soufflé cake which is both the weirdest and most delicious combination of flavors. So impressed with the meal. Can't wait to come back."

Banana Mousse

★★★★☆ 3.5 (34) • $

"I've been wanting to try banana mousse forever, but everytime I drive by there's a long line outside and I finally found out why! The menu was limited but the options were interesting ranging from peanut butter flavors , cinnamon toast crunch to cookies and cream. They sell to-go pints and sundaes, but the owner suggested I get the milkshakes since I was traveling a bit to get them home. She was really sweet, too! I ordered the cinnamon toast crunch milkshake as well as a chocolate milkshake. I'm not the biggest chocolate ice cream person (don't judge me) but theirs was pretty rich! I also did enjoy my cinnamon toast milkshake having actual cereal at the bottom. I might start randomly putting cereal in my icecream to entertain my inner child. The $10 price point was a bit "wow" but overall I'll def be supportive!"

City Pizza

★★★★☆ 4.1 (22)

"We were staying in the building next door to City Pizza. The service was fast and friendly. The food was good. Loved the chew of the crust. We ordered a medium pie which easily made 4 servings and a Caesar salad. There was seating inside as well as bistro tables outside."

Senorita's Mexican Taqueria

★★★★☆ 4.1 (95) • $$

"You would pass it if I didn't tell you about it. Right next to the McDonald's on Lancaster, this new space is BYOB but they have horchata... don't sleep! This is a family business and the food is fresh with a ton of flavor. Hearty portions and great churros! The reviews are right, this is the spot. Go and go again. Pleasant friendly service with a smile in a clean open space you can see the kitchen."

New Leaf 2 Chinese & Japanese Cuisine

★★★★☆ 4.2 (178) • $$

"Very fresh sushi on Main Street. We just moved to the area and were craving sushi! We arrived around 730 on a Friday night and were immediately seated outside. We started with miso soups and a sashimi Tower. The miso soup was decent. We also got the coconut shrimp and edamame. Coconut shrimp was delicious! The edamame was okay. Nothing special. We all ordered a bunch of rolls. Hard to remember which ones but everything was delicious and tasted extremely fresh. We're happy we were outside as inside was hot and very loud. Service was average. We will be back for our sushi cravings!"

The New American Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.2 (88)

"If you're reading this review go here now! Okay, now that I've got your attention let me tell you about one of the BEST dining experiences I've had in Delco. As a Delco native and current Philly resident I can say for sure that delicious dining is few and far between in the Interboro/Ridley area but this place takes the absolute cake. We came here last night to celebrate birthdays and the food was absolutely phenomenal. I mean some of the most complex, delicious, fresh, perfectly cooked, absolutely beautiful flavors I've had in a while. Ordered by my party: Myself - Oysters (so fresh and delicious) & octopus salad special with artichokes, capers, and black olives (see picture) that was huge and charred to absolute perfection - so tenderOthers (all had rave reviews and were HUGE portions) - Chicken parm - I was told the sauce was divine and it definitely needed a box for leftoversSpecial steak and shrimp asian-style pasta dish - I forget the name but the "appetizer" size was ordered and basically came with a whole filet of steak (perfectly cooked btw) and needed a box for leftoversPork belly special with pumpkin ravioli, apples, veggies, and cranberries (my husband now requests that I learn how to make these raviolis as he described they melted in his mouth) Soups - lobster bisque, clam chowder, & mushroom soup (apparently I need to learn to make this, too haha)Dessert - tiramisu & creme brulee cheesecake. The tiramisu was absolute perfection (I stole a bite) and not overly sweet. Creamy and divineI wish I had more characters to write about how absolutely amazing everything was. There wasn't a single dish served that was anything less than stellar. It's BYOB and the prices may seem high but don't be fooled, the portions are so so so big that you'll absolutely have leftovers and the flavors and ingredients make every penny worth spending. I was so pleasantly surprised, deeming myself a bit of a food snob, that I may actually go visit my family more often just as an excuse to come here. Final note: If you have any food allergies/aversions I would suggest asking for the ingredients. While pleasantly surprised and absolutely delighted for the complex flavors/ingredients there were some that ended up on plates that weren't listed on the menu (cranberries & capers for example). I'll be back!"

Jiggy Coffee

★★★★★ 4.9 (74) • $$

"I ordered something called a dirty sesame latte. It was milk, black sesame paste, and a shot of espresso. It was delicious. There's not much seating here, so I'd recommend you get your drink to go like I did since the few c seats were filled on my visit. They were cool about using my travel mug, which I appreciate. The space is simple and focused on serving up good coffee for the neighborhood. I like it."

Chez Hansi

★★★★★ 4.8 (32)

"I am such a fan of mom and pop shops, and Chez Hansi is deserving of recognition. We went during restaurant week and had a lovely time! Must get: lamb, sausage (presentation may not be perfect, but the quality is amazing), crab cake, fresh bread, tiramisuMeh: the butter, the quail (slightly dry)Missed out: ?I recommend bringing cash, a bottle of your favorite beverage and have a great time! Please recognize the staff is limited to one server and one chef, so please be patient and just enjoy yourself.Food: 4 starsPrice: 5 starsService: 4 starsAmbiance: 4 stars"

Martabak Ok

★★★★☆ 4.4 (97) • $$

"First timer and am impressed!!! If their fried tofu isn't the best fried tofu, then I don't know what is. Pancake was good too. Coming from Hong Kong, we have something similar, so it's like reliving my childhood. Not cheap, but the portions are huge. Cannot recommend enough!"

S&P Boba Tea

★★★★★ 4.8 (34)

"Just had to write a review since I've been going to S & Pfor over a year and I see Mr. Wish opening up. I personally feel threatened and victimized by MrWish if they make my favorite Boba place move elsewhere because I don't like Mr. Wish lmaooo. S & P makes some litttttt drinks, fruit and milk tea wise. They also offer milk foam and fancy rainbow drinks you see at Vivi. Plus, drinks here are cheap. Usually my Boba cost 3.80 and I don't need to drive all the way down to Chinatown for decent Boba. If you are deciding between basic b-Mr. Wish and S & P, go to S & P. If you really wanted Mr. Wish, they're literally popping everywhere like a rash."

Pop's Homemade Water Ice

★★★★☆ 4.4 (72) • $

"I had the best water ice of my life at Pop's. It was peach, and it was perfect. Icy cold on a hot day, I didn't mind the brain freeze because it was so good. There were little bits of fresh peach, and it was delicious.Blueberry water ice was good. Husband got a gelati for a cold blueberries-and-cream treat. A small was just $2 and was perfect on a hot afternoon. I can't believe I'd never been here until now.My plan was to try all of the water ice places around the city. But after Pop's, it's going to be hard to go anywhere else."

The Refectory

★★★★☆ 3.8 (98)

"Tucked into Villanova's campus, right off 476, Refectory is your place for a beautiful brunch, lunch or dinner. The ambiance is IT and very well put together. They have booths, tables, and a HUGE bar that I hear have a dope HH. What we snagged:-Mussels with Coconut Curry. (One of the best mussels dishes I've had. Mussels were huge and the sauce was flavorful)-Bronzino (Good, with the orzo. Little over cooked, but fine since the Mrs. is pregnant)-Scallops with Spoetzl (Amazing flavor, wish I had 1-2 more scallops)Overall, we'll be back. This joint is perfect for a quick brunch or even a beautiful anniversary dinner. Our waitress was stellar. She was bartending and serving at the same time!"

Tous Les Jours

"Location was bit random but then inside was spacious and alot of people were in tables surprisingly Well decorated, although breads was not appealing to me compared to Paris baguette, still decent choices We ordered only drinks caramel macchiato and honey lavender macchiato My friend liked caramel macchiato initially but then because of too much milk, it tasted more like milk than coffeeHoney lavender also good but no enough caffeine for me to stay awake We were both full so did not get dessert but i would go back to try pieces of cake Whole cake was $40 in average"

All Day Hoagies/ I scream for ice cream

★★★★☆ 4.2 (32)

"The hoagies are amazing, really takes me back in the day . Everything so fresh and the please get the seeded roll. I got a corned beef with the works ...They are the real deal. Only thing is I was there for an hour or so . They are getting swamped and they need more hoagie tech'swill be going back for the Italian Tuna and the gourmet Turkey."

Bassetts Ice Cream

★★★★☆ 4.2 (511) • $$

"Best ice cream I've had thus far in Philly. Grabbed a shake on my way to the airport. I have no shame...I finished it by the time I arrived to the terminal. Located inside the Reading Terminal Market, Bassett is family owned and has been in business at this spot for 4 generations, since 1892. There are several options to enjoy, cones, cup, shakes and pints to take home. The staff was helpful with suggestions but I made my own creation. A vanilla shake with chocolate swirls inside and caramel drizzle on top. That was some real tasty goodness. The line moved fairly quick and the atmosphere was great."

More Sugar

★★★★★ 4.7 (91) • $$

"Unassuming from outside: walk too fast and you'll miss it. Inside is nice with a very friendly and welcoming staff. Cash only.Chinatown is getting saturated with dessert options with the same options being offered everywhere. More sugar definitely stands out because they have a very unique menu: charcoal latte, cream boxes and their tofu/burnt durian cheesecakes are few examples. They should call it less sugar (I mean it as a compliment) because all the sweets and lattes are mildly sweet - which is my personal preference so I had thoroughly enjoyed everything here. Got the Charcoal latte (new favorite), Matcha Peach latte, Taro cream box, and Burnt Durian Cheesecake. Everything was delicious but my personal favorite was the burnt durian cheesecake: so unique and contrary to what may seem from the name not heavy at all! Taro cream box was scrumptious and tasted very authentic - not artificial at all and you can tell it is made from actual taro and not a mix/powder (so many do that now)."

Scoop Affles

★★★★★ 4.5 (10)

"Finally got a chance to check this spot out. We weren't disappointed. The place was spotless! The girl who waited on us behind the counter was very courteous and friendly. Also met the owner, Tony, who thanked us for coming. He was a pleasure to speak with. Definitely check this spot out!"

Paleteria Y Neveria La Sorpresa

★★★★★ 4.8 (13)

"This place is clean, bright and the owner who served us is very friendly and accommodating. They have an incredible selection of homemade ice cream and popsicles- some flavors you're familiar with and some that are probably new. You can try samples of everything. This is the same family that owns El Primo - so go there for dinner and come across the street for dessert. Great addition to the area!"

Michael's Water Ice

★★★★★ 4.7 (13) • $

"Some of the best water ice in Philly! I don't live in Philly anymore but this place will forever be on my must-visit list whenever I'm back in town. The gelati is my favorite thing to order.Also, the owner is awesome and always a pleasure to chat with. He really seems to love the local community/neighborhood and getting to know his customers. Great guy."

Scoop Deville

★★★★☆ 4.3 (26)

"To the owner: You wisely hired great, hard-working employees. Eric and Maurice I have met, along with a taller male Black employee (perhaps older than Maurice), and they are all very earnest and eager to make sure that I liked my ice cream. Very polite too. Seeing this across multiple employees helped me to see that their boss/owner knows how to hire the right people. It reminds me of Steve Jobs' quote about hiring "grade-A" people. Because if you hire grade-B people, they will soon make grade-C decisions, with grade-D consequences, and eventually your business will be a grade F. They work very hard when no one is looking over the shoulder. That is not common these days in the service industry. Congratulations!"

"The best ice cream, and the people who work here are so nice. It's like stepping back into time. I'm pretty sure this is the type of ice cream place Leave It To Beaver went to!"

Vernick Fish

★★★★☆ 4.4 (229) • $$$

"Excellent for seafood lovers. Their fish was very fresh, high quality, very delicious. The service was beyond excellent. The venue was high ceiling, very contemporary, open kitchen, lots of tall fresh orchids and flowers, fancy at the Four Seasons, very pretty. I was shocked that their kids menu was very tasty as well. They use Le Must Classic chef ketchup, very luxurious like everything else. The whole dining experience was spectacular."

Tous Les Jours

★★★★☆ 3.5 (22)

"It is one of my favorite bakeries and pastry shops that I visited recently. My friend took me to this place. And it's definitely impressive with the collection of croissants, cakes, and pastry options. The store looks fantastic in and out and maintained well, super clean, and it gives you a nice environment to sit and relax. My friends ordered coffee, and I got spinach feta Danish. And everything came right on time. The service is fantastic and the staff is friendly. The Danish tasted great and will try this place again. They have a shared parking lot and a lot of good stores in that strip mall."

J&P Seafood

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (63)

"Stick to the steamed seafood dishes. I've eaten here before and the seafood was great. Yesterday I my wife and I stopped in for something to eat. She had fish, collard greens and Mac N cheese. I had pork ribs, steamed broccoli and corn on the cob. The fish was ok. The ribs were ok. Everything else was TERRIBLE. Feels like $40 gone. The corn was hard and damn near butter free. It did have a few specs of old bay seasoning. That should only be used for corn with seafood platters in my opinion. The broccoli was also hard. Like super hard. My ribs were cooked, but not real BBQ to them. They just poured a little bit of sauce in on some of them. I ate most of the food because I was really hungry. Definitely unsatisfied this go round. I may be done here. How was my wife's food? She walked around the house talking to God about how awful it was lol. Maybe she drop a review about her experience as well! I did here her say something like "baby food style Mac n cheese though."

"This is our super casual date place. We like to ride our bikes here a couple times a month (it's about a 6.5 mile ride). Get an ice cream - relax and people watch - and ride home. I always get the same thing. Soft serve cone w jimmies. My bf varies what he gets every time - and every time he is happy w his result. This week he got a cherry gelati. But he has gotten sundaes and hard scooped flavors too. Everything has been great. Def don't miss out on this gem!!"

1731 Restaurant

★★★★★ 4.7 (19)

"This review is far overdue. I've been wanting to eat here for awhile and finally the night came. The restaurant has cool plates and dish ware something like my grandma Yo had in the house for holidays. They have great seats outside, first floor and upstairs. We ate upstairs and it was very nice atmosphere. Music, decor and service were great.!! Very attentive staff .So we started with the fried calamari. It was the best I've had. There were pepper and lemon slices battered and fried in the mix here and there. Really made the app great. Nice twist!!!! Also the antipasto for 2. It was great and there were a lot of items in the antipasto. Some places are lacking ingredients but they made an excellent Antipasto. The main dishes were amazing! My wife got eggplant parm which she said was best she's had at restaurant and I had the clams and linguine in spicy red. I even ordered the bracciole which was served with gravy and ricotta on the plate. It was spot on!! Everything was perfect on my tastebuds. I'll def be a repeat customer . And I didn't feel like it was any price difference than other places. Highly recommend!! My compliments to the chef!!!!"
