Sara Sokolow: The crispy haloumi was delicious, and so were the Royal Trumpet mushrooms with chickpea puree! The rugelach were served warm and were a great contrast to the sorbet. Everything was scrumptious
CITY GRIT: You can't go wrong with anything on Chef/Owner Solomonov's menu, but don't miss the Whole Roasted Lamb Shoulder with Pomegranate and Chickpeas. And the Sweetbreads changed our lives.
Deniz S: Not exaggerating so far one of the best lamb I ever had (manager told us that its been cooked for 2 days) which explains why its soo soft!! Get it: roasted lamb shoulder with pomegranate & chickpeas

Philadelphia Magazine: Excellent little brasserie with chef Paul Lyons (a graduate of Barbuzzo and Jamonera). The substantial $15 steak frites is an early hit. Try the octopus, and say yes to the crispy chickpea flatbread. Read more.
Lauren Smith: If you’re feeling just a little decadent, both the burger and steak frites are delicious always on the menu standbys. Moody, bistro like spot with great cocktails.
Ashtan Moore: Everything about this place is wonderful. Have a cocktail and a delicious plate of food.

George Drexel: Cobb Salad is basically kale. Not stalky. The dressing perfect. I substituted chick peas for bacon Quinoa for the cheese. That's the perfect meal. I had thought to add steak. Great just like that.
Tarah Feinberg: Good choice for paleo, vegan, generally healthy choices. Cajun shrimp, sweet potatoes, kale & squash salad were all good.
Olivia Gillison: The salmon, shrimp and tofu are all good options. Plus the vegetable sides are very flavorful and well seasoned. Definitely will be back again.
Emily H: Harvest bowl plus blackened chicken is fabulous - sweet potatoes, kale, chickpeas and hummus. Great healthy and fresh options.
Retna Slater: Harvest bowl is delicious
Hunter Thomas: Great selection of healthy options and truly generous portions. Limited portions of veggies but can have them steamed or sauteed. Smoothies good, too. No plant protein available though.

DailyCandy: "Gather around with twelve others for seasonal fare such as Cobb salad with “bacon” crumbles, cashew ricotta dumplings, and heirloom tomato. Hungry for more? She also offers lunch delivery."
Sally: BBQ seitan sandwich and crabbie cake sandwich are both so insanely good! Ice cream and a cupcake with coffee might be my fave though :)
vegansaurus: A reservation pre-fixe menu type of place with amazing goodies created by the Chef, Rachel. If you want an epic vegan brunch, hit her up asap.

j spin: Oysters Rockefeller were delicious. Sorry I didn’t take the picture before... but I was too busy eating them! Great spot for a drink and the hotel upstairs is perfect.
