We sat outside, which was delightful, with a breeze. Three of us shared vegetarian plates. I'm not actually a vegetarian, but I was happy. The fried cauliflower "wings" are crunchy and addictive. The beet salad was a perfect cool sweet contrast, and the grain bowl with quinoa was well spiced and tasty. (I wish I could make quinoa taste really good like this.) The carrot cake was not the dense kind with inches of cream cheese frosting; it was fluffy and again, well-spiced, with enough frosting. We had a great time.
The cooks never miss, the food is always amazing! I love the vibe of the restaurant, this is hands down my absolute favorite restaurant!
Awesome treasure in East Falls! Great menu with several vegetarian options and salads are great. We went for lunch but with a full bar, it would be a nice place to hang out although it isn’t large. The layout is a bit wonky and you can tell patrons are repeat because they know where to go and what to order. There is also a nice little bakery items for purchase. Found out the owner makes bread for Philly restaurants and runs this place in the side. Can’t wait to try brunch or breakfast!
We were seated immediately at 5:30pm without a reservation. The server, I don't recall her name unfortunately, was outstanding and provided insight on the foods which is important due to food allergies. She also recommended a draft beer and together with the Turkey sandwich which I felt was equivalent or better then a traditional Philly Steak sandwich, was perfect, as was the bread it was served on. All together an experience we look forward to having again.
Absolutely love the food. I thought it being pricier than other places would be a turn off but the food is absolutely worth the price. The plates are HUGE and the service is impeccable. French toast and pancakes are to die for and the coffee is really strong (none of the weak stuff you usually get). Ambiance of the place is cute and I will definitely be returning to LeBus for more foods, maybe next time for dinner ?
Riding by this location literally a gazillion times and never thought to stop in until today. Franklins down the street was closed until 3pm and I needed somewhere to eat before taking my neice to the hospitalto habe her baby. I must say I was NOT disappointed at all!!! Service was pleasant, beautiful decor, and the food was even better. I got the Germantown Bacon Cheeseburger which had an onion ring on top. It was well done but still tender and the fries came out piping hot, which I prefer. There is outside seating as well and parking wasn't too bad. It was a nice day so didn't mind the walk to and from the car. They also have fresh bread loaves, bagels and pastries to go for sell. Soon as you walk in it smells AMAZING! Definitely recommend and most definitely going back!
Called ahead for my birthday dinner last night, and what ensued was ridiculous. We were told (by a man on the other end) we couldn’t sit outside but there were tables available inside. We said that was great, gave our name, and we’d be there in fifteen. We drove over and arrived to be greeted by a different stony-faced woman serving as the hostess. I don’t know if their wires got crossed, but she refused to honor the reservation we had just made with the man on the phone, and said they were slammed. We had two hangry kids with us and it was a school night, so we had limited time. I tried to plead with her. It felt suddenly like I was at the DMV. When I told her it was my birthday and that we had made a reservation, she stared at me without a glimmer of humanity softening her face, pointed, and actually said, “Just sit on that bench there.” Her rudeness was so extreme my 9-year-old was beside herself. We proceeded to wait for THIRTY MINUTES with two hangry kids. We should have just left but we had been told it would be a 15 minute wait and we were already there…. This is the kicker. Check out how slammed they are in the photo. The restaurant was empty LOL. Like what? The worst part is I posted that line of hers to my IG stories. I knew other people would be gobsmacked by how rude she was. I tagged the restaurant, so they could have a chance to repair the situation before I started writing reviews. They saw the story and they didn’t even bother responding to me to apologize on behalf of a new hostess or something. I’ve only ever posted nice things about them in the past and we’ve exchanged messages before, so it was pretty glaringly obvious that they just don’t care about even basic customer service. We used to eat there or order in frequently from them, but I don’t think we’ll be back, which is good… because they serve Faroe Island salmon! Last summer, in the Faroe Islands, over 1,400 dolphins, an entire superpod, were slowly slaughtered on a beach with knives. Exercise caution if you watch the videos. The cruelty is horrific. Dolphins are highly social and intelligent animals, so slowly killing them in front of each other with knives on a beach— mothers and babies too— is one of the worst things you’ll ever see. It’s the worst of humanity on display. The biodiversity loss is incalculable. The Faroese also kill pilot whales as part of their traditional “grind” except in the old days they used wood boats and now they use jet skis and motor boats, not quite so traditional. These highly intelligent animals have no chance against these modern hunting methods and because they’re so social they stick together and get slaughtered by the hundreds if not thousands, and then the meat is too tainted for the Faroese to be able to safely eat much of it anyway. Eating high levels of mercury is dangerous. Most of the meat gets thrown out. Anyone who supports their fisheries has questionable ethics at best. I used to love this restaurant, but I should have stopped supporting them for this reason alone. Don’t apologize to me for ruining my birthday, but please do remove Faroe Island salmon from your menu. And please no one go there until they do.
The food was really good a lil too much cilantro for myself but other than that the food was great.
Really cute restaurant great for brunch! The service was so nice, I loved all the staff. They do not cram tables together like most brunch spots so you can breathe and you have a good deal if space between tables. The food was really good too, made me want to keep coming back to try other stuff!
The food is always good as well as the vibe thanks to Tyler and his great taste in music! I love coming here on my lunch break in between waxing my clients. But please be patient because the lunch rush can take a little while on food service which is expected. Still a great place to dine.
