I don't know why people are literally on here basing the reviews off of their parking. It's fucking Philadelphia. This place should not have their reviews rated over parking. That's absolutely asinine fucking stupid. But I'm gonna give my honest review. The food was shit. They also had another back Kitchen behind it. That was like an Asian restaurant. I don't like Chinese food so I didn't need the food once I sat down and figured that out. The food was absolutely subpar mediocre. The eggs looklooked like they were decent eggs. They definitely don't serve that yellow of an egg in Florida. The potatoes were frozen, diced potatoes that were deep-fried, and by the time they made it to the table, they were shriveled up cold and no longer edible. The potatoes left flavor in personally I think if they put some onion with it, I could've gave it another star. Rye toast was rye toast. My partner in crime said the eggs Benedict was mediocre and at the hollandaise sauce tasted too much like lemon. We won't be back because we're not even from there. It's a cute place, old and quaint but not a place with good food.

This new version feels more corporate and less like it has the personality and soul that made it special. The service could also be more welcoming. It felt like certain customers received noticeably more attention by the manager, with comments like "they're a regular, while others were treated differently. Every guest should feel equally welcome. I also have to disagree with the praise I've seen in the reviews for the pizza. For $20, this is what I was served, and it was really disappointing. At that price point, l'd much rather go to Pizzeria Beddia. I genuinely hope Luna finds its footing again. I'd love to see the menu expanded, the pricing become more competitive, and the overall atmosphere feel a little warmer. As you can see by the photos, I returned at different times because I really wanted to like the new place. Until then, I'll probably only return if there's a happy hour at best (there's now a happy hour from what I was told but refuse to come back since my friend had an awful time here recently too).

Frida's in Old City Philadelphia -- Restaurant Pros…read moreFrida's is a wonderful little find in Old City Philadelphia. The location is excellent--just a couple of blocks from Independence Hall, making it a perfect place to stop for breakfast, brunch, coffee, or something freshly baked while exploring the historic area. Everything we ordered was freshly made, delicious, and served with care. We tried the Quiche Lorraine, which had an exceptionally flaky, buttery crust and was served with a small fresh salad. The dressing was excellent too. We also tried the baker's basket, including the croissants and scones. They had a slightly different recipe and flavor than we were accustomed to, but they were absolutely delicious and clearly made with care. The homemade jam was another standout--it was so good that I would recommend taking some home if you have the opportunity. The American omelet was also freshly prepared and brought to the table hot. We also enjoyed a freshly made cappuccino and black coffee. My son ordered the chorizo, and he said it was the best chorizo he has ever tasted anywhere. It was truly delicious! The customer service was excellent. The waitstaff were friendly, attentive, and helpful without being intrusive. Frida's has a charming, cozy, boutique-like atmosphere that combines a restaurant, coffee shop, and bakery. Pricing was average, about $20-30 per person. Cons: Honestly, we couldn't find any! However, the restroom could have been cleaner I highly recommend Frida's to anyone visiting Old City Philadelphia. The freshness and quality of the food really stood out, and you can tell that the baked goods and other dishes are prepared with care. It's a charming place in a fantastic location, and definitely worth a visit while exploring Philadelphia's historic district.

Went Monday night for Winewark. I guess Southwark is/was closed on Mondays and someone came up…read morewith this great idea to have light bites and wine takeover the restaurant. It was very popular, barely any space at the bar and certainly a lot of return customers. I don't drink wine so most of this is lost on me but clearly there were many people enjoying the handpicked offerings. I was only there because my friend enjoys wine and she suggested I try their burger. At 27$ I had high expectations for the burger but was truly disappointed. 2 small patties cooked well, it's advertised as having charred onion and bacon, neither of which were on my burger, just 2 pieces of lettuce. The blue cheese was melted so I couldn't see it, but I could taste it. I should have requested another type of cheese which may have helped, but this is not something I would order again. It was dry and salty and served with a white sauce on the side which I could not identify but didn't like after dipping a fry in there. The French fries were fantastic and there were plenty of them, the highlight of my meal. So why 4 stars? It's not the full restaurant menu so it wouldn't be fair to judge them based on the Monday offerings, the staff was really kind, and the bar was loaded with a lot of nice people having a good time. Plus my friends pork ragu was good, I had a bite of that and found it quite tasty. Not my scene but if you like wine I'd definitely check it out.

With our coffee and tea, we ordered an avocado toast with a side of bacon. There was no one in the cafe (as it was fairly early) and we were able to get seats at the narrow bar. About 10 - 15 minutes later a plate of avocado toast and scrambled eggs came out. I waited a few more minutes before asking, "Is the bacon coming out?"...The guy at the counter (stocky, facial hair) said "No", and turned away to ignore me. Again, the place was completely empty except us. I let it ago for some time, thinking he was just having a bad day, but now I find his rudeness unacceptable. Things he could have asked: "Did you order bacon?" "Is everything alright with your order?" "Is everything Ok?" To be clear, mistakes happen and I'm not upset about that. I ordered avocado toast with a side of bacon and received a side of scrambled eggs. It's not a big deal. I'm pissed this person made no attempt to address the situation (when it was clear I thought bacon was coming) and deliberately turned around to ignore me. Whether or not he'a having a bad day, it's bad customer service and I didn't receive what I paid for.
