    2/2 for Agua. So darn good. Service was amazing, vibe was perfect and is 100% better to go during the weekday. Not noisy like our last visit. The specials were amazing and it seems like the back of house is cooking like a well oiled machine. -Salamon Entree (Very flavorful and cooked perfectly) -Rack of Lamb (Always a winner at the table) -Veal Cheeks Special (SO GOOD. Fall apart amazing.) If you're in the area and haven't ventured to Auga...idk what you're waiting for.

It's also BYOB, which makes it even better -- bring your favorite bottle and make a whole night out of it. The vibe is warm, intimate, and perfect for date night, but they also have a gorgeous outdoor space that can host up to 100 people, making it such a hidden gem for larger parties and celebrations. They opened in September 2019 -- just six months before the pandemic -- which makes what they've built even more impressive. It's truly family-driven. The husband, Manuel (from Spain), is the head chef, and you can absolutely taste the care and authenticity in every dish. Cindy, who is from Panama, brings so much heart to the restaurant as well. We started with Prince Edward Island oysters and the crab salad, which had crispy bacon pieces for a great touch of texture and the crab was incredibly fresh -- such a perfect balance of flavors and crunch. For entrées, the beef bourguignon was rich, comforting, and everything you'd hope for from a classic French dish. The Dover sole felt elegant and perfectly executed. We ended with the chocolate mousse, which was light, decadent, and the perfect sweet finish. And I have to mention our server -- Delroy was fabulous. Attentive, personable, and so knowledgeable. He truly elevated the entire experience. Between the ambiance, the hospitality, and the beautifully prepared food, La Provence is absolutely somewhere I'll be coming back to for an elevated night out.

It was one of the best places we've eaten at in the Philly suburbs. Since moving from center city we've really struggled to find good restaurants on/around the main line. Everyone talks about nectar, blue elephant and goats beard etc and we do not think any of them are good at all. At the table is one of the very few places that are actually good around here and we loved it! Food here is superb. We were pleasantly surprised with the amuse-bouche starter. Such a nice touch. Then we got apps. We love the mushroom toast app.... Seriously one of the best things I've ever had! The thrice fried French fries were also delicious! We split a mushroom tortellini and rack of lamb. Both 10/10. The tortellini is a smaller portion size imo so if you're starving get more food than just that. The rack of lamb was cooked perfectly. Absolutely delicious. And the mashed potatoes and artichoke it came with were also super good - I didn't expect to like the artichoke but it was so yummy and flavorful. Everything here was great. Constant water refills - our server ashley was really friends and attentive. This was a very nice dining experience and a really cute interior as well. The outdoor patio is awesome and great for summer nights in town! Thank you for such a wonderful night.

    Tucked away on bustling Route 30 in a rather dull, nondescript structure that once housed a Dairy…read moreQueen, it is quite easy to pass Bunha Faun by without notice. Even if you've dined here a number of times, it still somehow manages to slip under your culinary radar... And that is truly a shame, as this diminutive Main Line mainstay has so much to offer. The unassuming exterior notwithstanding, the restaurant's interior is attractively and tastefully appointed. And the cuisine - French fare with an Asian flair - is consistently lovingly prepared and beautifully but simply presented. One glance at the Snow Pea Salad, for example, and you realize that the food here is really something special. When it comes to ingredients, the dish is the soul of simplicity... snow peas, mushrooms, and a splash of sesame dressing. But the constituents are arranged so artfully - the snow peas fanned about an epicenter of sliced mushrooms - that the presentation succeeds in beguiling the eye as well as the palate. The more seasonal Asparagus Salad - spears caressed by a wafer-thin carrot sheath in pools of sherry vinaigrette - is just as photogenic and equally delicious... As was my starter, Oriental Noodles tossed with sesame dressing topped with slivers of chicken and crushed peanuts surrounded by alternating snippets of carrots and broccoli. Simple but sublime. This is obviously a kitchen at the very top of its game. My dining partner, however, would be quick to tell you that nothing quite measured up to the Escargot. Baked in garlic butter, served on a bed of spinach, and topped with Swiss cheese, it was both incredibly rich and extraordinarily delicious. Not to be missed. Just be sure to postpone your next cholesterol test. When it comes to entrées, the Sautéed Barramundi is an uncommonly special treat. Because of its firm moist texture and sweet, buttery flavor - somewhat akin to halibut and grouper - it has quickly become the darling of seafood lovers and confirmed carnivores alike... Even people who don't like seafood tend to like barramundi. Bunha Faun's kitchen prepares it with a slightly unusual but extremely subtle ginger scallion sauce... The result is simply extraordinary. Although my dining partner enjoys finny fare, she much prefers shellfish, which have been her entrées of choice during several visits. She definitely enjoyed the Sautéed Shrimp and Scallops. These were served up with artichoke hearts and mushrooms in a Champagne cream sauce. And, yes... the dish was exceedingly rich. But even better, in her opinion, was the choice during our most recent visit, the Sweet Red Pepper Shrimp. Companioned by a very nice rice pilaf and sautéed green beans, the perfectly prepared crustaceans were decorously anointed with an exquisite red pepper sauce that was just sweet enough to complement rather than smother the objects of its affection. If I had to choose my favorite entrée, however, my nod would certainly go to the delectable Escalope of Veal. I have sampled numerous variations on the theme over the years, but Bunha Faun's kitchen turns out something that is really quite special. For starters, the veal is pounded nearly wafer-thin and is incredibly tender. Then, of course, there is that utterly addictive white wine sauce aided and abetted by wild mushrooms and prosciutto. And it is undoubtedly the prosciutto - and its irresistibly sweet/salty countenance - that propels this dish into an entirely unique and exciting flavor dimension. If Bunha Faun has a low point culinarily, it continues to be their desserts. With the exception of the Crème Brûlée (which was absent from the menu the evening of our most recent visit), the usual suspects are trucked in from off campus - Tiramisu Cake, Chocolate Velvet Cheesecake, Dark Side of the Moon Cake, etc., etc. And this is, indeed, unfortunate. Given the overall quality of the appetizers & entrées, just a few more homemade desserts would add immensely to the total dining experience. On the other hand, I freely admit that my dining partner's Pecan Pie and my Cappuccino Truffle - dark chocolate encrusted cappuccino ice cream with pieces of candy toffee - were both, if not memorable, certainly quite tasty. To my knowledge, food has never been an issue at Bunha Faun... No, the major gripe has usually been with regard to service - a two-fold issue involving both servers and the kitchen - which, upon occasion, can be somewhat slower than a herd of turtles. So, if you plan to dine at Bunha Faun - and it is most assuredly worth a visit - my advice is to make it your only stop for the evening... Just in case.

Shortly after we were seated outside, it started raining. Since our food hadn't even arrived yet, we asked if we could move inside. We were told there were no available tables, but when I went inside, I could clearly see multiple open seats. Despite the rain getting heavier and the wind picking up, we were still expected to remain outside and eat under those conditions. With an infant in the group, that simply wasn't an option. My daughter-in-law had to take the baby home, and we ended up asking for our meals to be packed to go. What was most disappointing was the lack of effort or empathy from the staff. There was no attempt to accommodate us or find a solution, just a sense that it was "up to us" whether to stay and eat in the rain or leave. We spent over $200 and left with a very frustrating experience. The food may have been good, but the service completely ruined it, to the point where we didn't even feel like eating the meal afterward. Unfortunately, this was a big disappointment, and we won't be returning.
