The Philly Colada is delicious.
Drinks are strong. The atmosphere is great and the service is amazing.
The top-shelf liquor collection is awesome (100 bourbons; 65 gins) & the quality of well spirits defies the $10 per cocktail price. But it's the wizardry of the drinks that caught our eye. Read more.
The upstairs bar is usually less crowded. Great margs and pina coladas.
The ambiance is so playful and great for group dinners. Margaritas here are DIVINE as they use freshly squeeze fruit juice for their mixes. Also,try the bone marrow tacos with the bacon marmalade!!
For authentic Mexican cuisine try Distrito, Jose Garces's restaurant serving Traditional Guacamole, Carnitas Tacos and Ceviche.
Yes to Mexican Corn and I'm really digging the mac&cheese with gator sausage - do it! Great draft list too
Must try the fishtown ice tea!
Spire dark and dry cider with some fireball whiskey inside. Do it!
The soft serve here is wonderful! I enjoy eating it as a reward for taking rigorous bike rides.
Amazing locally-owned FroYo with self-serve plus counter-service Greek Yogurt and Gelato specials. Plus they are open late. A neighborhood must
The dark chocolate and peanut butter combo is divine! Love this local neighborhood spot.
Their Mexican is tex-mex and they fully admit it. Great tasting, but don't count it as authentic. Meanwhile the BBQ is delicious as well. The sandwiches are huge & try their BBQ sauces!
The waitress with dreadlocks is the hottest woman I've ever met.
The pork shoulder is like a hug from Jesus. Like, the kind of hug that leads to the blinds getting closed and the funky porn music starts playing. Dirty Christ sex; the pork shoulder here is THAT good
Great vegetarian friendly options. Otherwise, as authentic as you're going to find in Center City.
Evidently these hating Philadelphians do NOT know what good authentic Mexican cuisine tastes like ... Just go back to El Vez for your bland tasteless gringo-style Mexican food, you haters!!
Love the fresh and free chips and salsa! Always get the Lunch Special #1.
Monday happy hour! $5 wraps and good beer!
BEST wraps in the city that I know of... Soo freaking delicious.
