    Inside seating area

    An early evening birthday dinner with family. The hibiscus lemonade started off a great meal. We wanted as many different tastes as possible so we opted for starters and sides. We had crispy Brussels, Montreal Mussels with fries, fried Korean Calamari, whipped ricotta on toast , Kimchi fried rice and a smoked cheesecake with berries and whipped cream for a shared dessert. Everything was delicious, well cooked and fresh. Our servicer was attentive and professional. Give Kitchen 519 a try they won't disappoint .

    Unique food, fair prices, and good portions, plus everything is made in house at this mom and pop restaurant. The restaurant, kitchen, and bathrooms are very clean. There is not a lot of seating, so if you're going to go to dinner, they recommend a reservation. I came here for dinner years ago and loved it, but it's 40 minutes away from me, so I haven't been back. Well, I went to (weekend-only) brunch with my sister and brother-in-law and tried their food. I ordered the crab cake Benedict, my brother-in-law got bananas foster French toast, and my sister got the brisket, egg, and cheese sandwich. I sampled their food, and everything was delicious. The French toast was decadent, my Benedict was flavorful, and the brisket on the breakfast sandwich melted in my mouth. The coffee was flavorful, and the breakfast potatoes served on the side of each plate were crispy and well seasoned. I surely won't wait so long to return next time. A small, hidden gem. (Tip: Paying by credit card will cost you 3%.)

    Foodie Heaven!!!! Absolute five star experience!! I love finding places like this and, of all those I've found and reviewed, I'd put this in my top five. If you're thinking of dinner, give a call for availability. It's a popular place. Super creative menu packed with delicious offerings. I just had to try the South Jersey Brisket Cheesesteak. Comes loaded with tender brisket, Cooper sharp cheese and caramelized onions on a seeded roll. Absolute perfection! My wife opted for the 14 hour Pulled Pork sandwich with cheddar. Very tender and delicious. Added a side of garlic fries to each. What a meal! Portions are generous with my wife and I each boxing half our meal. Finished with a crème brûlée and Jewish Apple Cake Bread Pudding with vanilla ice cream and caramel drizzle. Wow! Everything is made in-house and it shows. Family owned and operated. Just absolutely wonderful service from Ryan start to finish. You just need to get here.

    My son wanted a good burger for his birthday dinner, and they have a burger night on Thursdays. There is a special burger/sandwich menu. My husband and son had the calamari, and loved it. Said it was the best they ever had. They really loved the sauce. They split the crab cake burger and brisket burger and they really liked both. I had the basic burger with cheese, lettuce, pickles, and it was a delicious burger. I am not a burger person, it is never a go to food for me. It was cooked perfect. My daughter had the grilled cheese bacon burger. Just a heads up, this is a burger between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches!!!!! She did not realize that when she ordered. She said it was great, but it is a lot of food. They are BYOB, my husband brought beer. I wasn't planning on drinking, but they do so Bellview Winery wines, so I got a bottle. So glad we went, because it been a long time since we have been there. It's very close to us and we can't wait to go back. They had a great selection of desserts, but we were stuffed. Our waiter, whose name I have forgotten at the moment, was great!

    I went back and forth between 3 and 4 stars, because it IS a nice place to eat, but a few things just "meh-ed" me. I would have given if 3.5, if my petition to give half stars ever makes it the Yelp powers that be. Firstly, it's a small little spot that is BYOB, but does sell wine by the bottle. When you walk in, you walk past the kitchen; which is cool, but it wasn't exactly a kitchen that was WORTH showing off. Not that it looked bad, it just didn't look special in any way. I'm sure they do it to show that they are proud of the way they prepare your food, and have nothing to hide, which I appreciate, but it almost seemed out of place, and I'm not sure having the open kitchen so close to the front door is even a good idea. The hostess sat us right away, but here's the first couple of knocks: the table was a bit sticky, and the silverware had fingerprints on them. Again, nothing egregious, but......then, I looked and there are vaccuums and mops and what not, basically IN the dining room, but either way in CLEAR view of the guests. Maybe it's just me, but I don't want to stare at an old, bag model Hoover while I eat. With the walk past the kicthen, the sticky tables, and the vaccuum leaned on the wall during service, Kitchen 519 feels like eating at someones house. Maybe that's what they're going for. The food itself was good. I had no complaints about the taste of anything, other than I wish the butter that came with the bread had some salt in it. I got the Chicken Caprese salad, with added bacon ($5 upcharge), the Misses got the crab cakes, which came with 2 sides (Misses picked sweet potato mash and brussel sprouts), with the chicken fried deviled eggs to start. We ended with the creme brulee for dessert. There was no corkage fee for the bottles to be opened. Service was fine, but there was an issue with the pricing. Be warned, the prices on the menu are not updated. This includes the menus they hand you at the restaurant, not just the online versions. Because I'm crazy about stuff, I was able to catch the fact that certain items were charged more than were listed on the menu. To their credit, they adjusted the price, but they would have slipped it past me if I wasn't paying attention. Like I said, Kitchen 519 was a good meal, with just a few knocks that could be easily corrected to get it up to a 4, or even 5 star spot. I see no reason we won't come back.

    I had the brisket tacos and thought they were very tasty. There were also vegan options for those that needed it.

    Oh my gosh I'm so excited to tell you guys about our dinner here last night! My boyfriend chose the place himself online and said "it seemed like a place I would like." He was 100% correct. I called because it was a friday at 6:45 PM and they took my name for a table for two and said to come right over. We were seated right when we got there at 7 ish which was so awesome considering the dining room is small, not cramped just limited seating! Our waiter Ryan was the absolute best! He was so attentive and reliable. I stared off with a mexican coke and we ordered nachos as an appetizer. They were so amazing, unfortunately my picture is what they look like half way through us eating them because we could barely stop eating after the first bite, all the ingredients were soooo fresh tasting. We each got a meat platter, which comes with choice of meat(s), sides, and cornbread. My boyfriend had ribs and really enjoyed them. He said they had a great fall off the bone texture. Our waiter was kind enough to bring us (without asking him to) samples of all the sauces. My boyfriend's favorite was the Korean BBQ, mine was the Bourbon Smoked I believe, but the hot honey and Mango habanero were tasty (and spicy). I had the pulled pork and it was delicious. The brisket was okay, I expected it to be pulled, but it came in slabs. Still very good tasting though. We both tried the mac and cheese as a side and it was amazing. It was the best mac and cheese we have had out in so long. Creamy, tasty, cheesy, and topped with breadcrumbs. The fries and potatoes were both yummy as well, everything we ate was just great. We ordered the cheesecake to go because we were so full, but everything had been so tasty we didn't want to miss dessert. Unfortunately by the time we got home our cheesecake tasted like BBQ, I think because we kept in the same bag for the 20 minute ride home, totally our fault! Anyway if you couldn't tell we were obsessed with this place. It is not often you find a restaurant where you don't wait long, the waiter seems like he really likes his job, the food is amazing, and you have a great vibe around you!

    The brisket, Gouda Mac & cheese and German potato salad.

    The food was amazing. There were so many delicious items listed on the menu that we wanted to try everything. The deep fried devils eggs were amazing! Ryan, our server was delightful and very courteous! I would highly recommend this place if you are in the area. We were from out of state and found this place on Yelp. Thank you for the helpful reviews!

    Trio of tacos; shrimp, brisket, pork. Very good!
    Tara L.

    We had a great meal starting with the chicken fried deviled eggs (whites are breaded and deep fried). Entrees were the trio of tacos (one of each) with chips and pico and the ribs with brisket beans and Gouda Mac n cheese with cornbread. Standouts were the service (Matt), homemade tortilla chips, the brisket baked beans, and the Gouda Mac and cheese. I did not try the tacos but my bf enjoyed them all. Little disappointed with the ribs (not a lot of meat and a little fatty) but what was there was good. I'm not a big fan of smoked flavor and a lot of items were smoked including the little bags of granola they gave us. Great granola; I'd recommend making it unsmoked. Based on uniqueness and quality of food and service 4 stars.

    Smoked Wings (3/5)
    Quintessa D.

    I came here with friends. It's BYOB but they sell wine by the bottle, which was reasonably priced. We tried the smoked wings, burger, gouda mac and cheese, french fries, shrimp and grits, mussels (not pictured) and pulled pork tacos. Overall, I enjoyed my time. The ambiance is cute, the staff is friendly, the food was cool. Mussels (3.5/5) - good flavor but I have had more flavorful mussels. Smoked wings (3/5) - good flavor but overcooked. French fries (3.5/5) solid fries nothing to rave about. Gouda Mac and cheese (4/5) - very tasty! Would order again. Shrimp and Grits, Pulled pork tacos, and shrimp and grits - didn't try but my friends really enjoyed them!

    The service and the food was amazing... great atmosphere. Everything was amazing. Cozy upbeat place. kitchen 519 is also BYOB... I would highly recommend dinner or lunch here anytime.

    Twice-baked eggplant spread with feta and olives on house-made focaccia; chicken-fried deviled eggs. Amazing.
    Thom M.

    This place is a BYOB just a block off the Black Horse Pike on Evesham Rd in Glendora, which is not known as a culinary Mecca. But Kitchen 519 could very well qualify Glendora as such. I just kind of discovered it on my GPS ("restaurants near me") and the reviews were / are glowing. Very unprepossessing building, seems kind of hidden from sight. But the menu is frankly amazing, prices very reasonable, and the staff are very down to earth with a hint of hipster / "The Bear" - "Yes, Chef" kinda vibe. Oh, and the music is Khruangbin, Leon Bridges, Glass Beams, Mark Speer, classic R&B, and the like. Just love the vibe here! The food: fresh, interesting in the best way, beautifully prepared and presented. Start with the chicken fried deviled eggs and go from there. You can't go wrong. Starting with the chicken fried deviled eggs and the twice-baked eggplant....

    Glimpse into the Deviled Egg..

    Small place with a big welcome at the door.. Our server Mike was perfectly attentive, friendly and informative.. We enjoyed a quick brunch here.. shared Deviled Eggs, wife had the Brisket Benedict and I went with a Filet Hash special.. all vey good. Can't say I wouldn't have enjoyed a spicy Bloody Mary with my dish but it is BYO so the choices are yours..

    See all

    The rice bowl on their lunch menu is great. Good proportion too, with add-on, enough for both lunch and light dinner for me.

    Capt'n Chucky's Crab Cake

    (5 reviews)

    I have driven by this place hundreds of times and never noticed cars in the parking lot. so in the…read morepast I just drove by. Today, as I was driving I was thinking that maybe I would make a crab soup when I got home but then I saw Captain Chucky's. There were cars in the parking lot which meant it was open and so I ventured in. I'm not sure if the person I spoke to is the owner, was the manager or was just an employee but when I told him I was a first-timer and that in the past I just drove by. by he laughed and said eventually everybody stops in. I can understand why everybody stops in this is an amazing place if you like crab and shrimp. He took the time after excusing himself to talk on the phone to describe each and every item in the window to me and to give me a brief tour of this small food outlet. Yes, I was impressed I told him I was thinking soup and he honestly evaluated their soup suggesting the New England clam chowder or the cream of crab soup. you said the other ones were good but those were the favorites and the corn crab chowder was new. I'm not sure whether that meant it was so new that people haven't evaluated it or it was new and that I should go with one of the old favorites. The array of crab cakes looked so awesome, but this was just lunch and I was definitely doing the cream of crab soup. So, the egg roll intrigued me because the price was right, his description was enticing, and I am thrifty and the price was right. He didn't forget to point out that they have pierogies and pasta and desserts from Lancaster County, but my mind was made up soup and an egg roll. He gave me the instructions on how to cook the egg roll in my air fryer. I hurried home ... didn't realize the soup was frozen solid, which meant I had to wait to defrost it and then heat it up. That egg roll was so good! I could eat one every single day cuz it was creamy and shrimpy and crabby and awesome and a great price because after all I'm thrifting. Yum yum yum the cream of crab satisfied my hunger for crab. So, Yes I will be back. maybe to just get what I got this time or to try the crab cakes that bang bang one soundef really good. or some pierogies because they come from a special place. If You have been just driving by like I had. I suggest pull into the parking lot and do some food shopping!

    I'm surprised at the only review on here…read more My "mother" (she's like a second mother to me!) is a very picky Italian who almost never dines out RAVED about the food that she got from Capt'n Chucky's many months ago. The folks on a foodie Facebook group that I'm a part of had nothing but good things to say as well . . . hmmmm . . . I love seafood an am super curious about the food here. I'll have to partake soon. So far, I've only had their "imported" Stock's pound cakes, which are divine because they are from the Philly location. They are THE best pound cakes that I've ever had in my life! You can cut the thinnest (although I don't - lol!) piece because the cake is sooo dense!

If you look at my reviews, I love Chinese buffet. Even my friend who is with me agrees. Something is not right. They need to change the people who cook this food. The service was very good. Yes 12% tip is automatically added to the bill. I thought it was only for a part of 6 or more, but that's not the case. My friend paid the bill but then said the tip is automatically included. He did pay in cash but a copy of the bill was not left on the table. I asked for a copy of the bill, We were told by the waitress that that tip is shared among everyone. We tipped her extra even though. I'd like to take care of people who serve us because everything is so expensive so I did not mind. But I would like to see better staff in the kitchen, who know how to cook. Obviously, this place has a problem. Sorry, I'd love to leave good reviews.
