We came for taco Tuesday and had a fantastic experience. The food was finger licking delicious, the service was superb, and the atmosphere was great. The care and attention put into every detail from the cleanliness and decor to the fresh flowers and exceptional service really stood out. It’s clear that they take great pride in their business and genuinely care about customer satisfaction. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this place to others!

We came here for brunch on a rainy day so it wasn’t too crowded which made the experience even better. Our server was super friendly, attentive and took the time to answer all of our questions. The restaurant has really nice decor and a cozy ambiance that made the meal feel relaxing and enjoyable. Everything we ordered was delicious and the portion sizes were very generous. I left completely full and satisfied. Definitely a spot I’d recommend checking out if you’re visiting Philly!

I was really excited to try this spot. I ordered the Dulce de Leche French Toast (2.5/5) with home fries (3/5) and turkey bacon (5/5), and my sister got the Huevos Motuleños. We both had the hibiscus (sorrel) drink (5/5). The French toast didn’t meet my expectations—I was hoping it would be soaked in the dulce de leche like the dessert, but it wasn’t, and the batter didn’t seem to fully absorb into the bread. It also would’ve been better with fresh peaches instead of canned. The home fries were said to be sautéed with peppers and onions, but that wasn’t the case. They were fried well, just needed more seasoning like salt and pepper. The turkey bacon portion was generous, which I appreciated. My sister’s dish could’ve used a bit more flavor as well. The standout for us was definitely the hibiscus drink—I absolutely loved it!

Went here for a second visit before heading to a show at The Filmore. Made a reservation online, but it wasn't too crowded so we could have walked in without one tonight. We were seated and greeted immediately. The entire staff were very friendly and attentive. The bread and butter to start was fresh, warm, and scrumptious. We stared with 2 apps, a queso dip and an octopus salad which was on special. I would get both of these again in a heartbeat. The octopus was tender and not overly chewy. The queso was piping hot and delicious. We got the beef tacos and the salmon with shrimp special. Both were hot, and well cooked. The salmon was not dry at all and the shrimp were fairly large. This place is BYOB which I consider a plus lol. Will be returning again when I'm in the area.

This is my second time here and the food has been amazing both times. I had the blueberry waffles and my friend had the creme brulee waffles. They were both delicious and the waffle is light with a strong vanilla flavor. The service is always great and this is one of my favorite spots in Philly. Such a gem. Thank you!
