Not much to say other than what many have stated. The Nashville hot buns were absolutely delicious. Warning: they're not a first date food. It gets messy. Also got the kimchi fried rice w tofu, which was really good, even later that night as leftovers. My husband got the flank steak, which really isn't his cut of meat, and he said it was fine, if a little too salty. The only drink we ordered was the Frosè (rosè, vodka, citrus, strawberry, frozen). It was tasty, but I had to rush through it to get to a concert. I would definitely go back if I came back into town.

We came for my wife’s birthday. We had wanted to come for a long time, but moved out of state. Had the opportunity to come and we had a very nice meal and a good time. My only complaint is that the restaurant was really loud. I wear hearing aids and the background noise was really loud. I had trouble hearing the waitstaff and conversation at the table.

Solid spot for food and drinks during the week or in a pinch.Great wedge salad and decent drinks.Service was really good.

Pre Phillies game brunch! What an awesome find by my brother— he stayed at a nearby hotel & found this gem on Google. There are 2 parking lots right across the street, btw. They easily, happily accommodated our loud party of 6 lol! We had a res at opening & the place did fill up. All staff are super friendly, great menu, delish coffee & all of our meals were outstanding (portions, presentation as well as taste)! Very clean- even the cool bathrooms! We all loved the retro vibe… I will be back to try the grapefruit mimosa!! Easy 15 min ride to CBP, too! Can’t wait to return!

Such an amazing server and, as always, amazing meal!

My server was SO kind!!!

Typical American food! Really tasty

Friendly and enjoyable time with tasty food, great cocktails and excellent service!

Such a fun and delicious spot! I had the Frose' and biscuits and gravy dish, both were REALLY special. I loved all the flavors. I will be back!

Service was good. Food not worth the price in my opinion. $22 for half a fried chicken — was very over cooked and dry.
