a plate of pasta with shrimp and vegetables
Rose M.

So atmosphere is very beautiful and music is on constantly! Spanish music playing This place is very nice, the food is VERY DELICIOUS and prepared very well and pretty! The owner is amazing and the waitress is so friendly and kind. The bar and restaurant are split which I love and the dance floor is in the middle. definitely trying again! I would absolutely say give this place a try with no doubt!

Returned for happy hour on a Friday. Amazing cocktails and mixed drinks. Made me feel like I was on…read morevacation honestly. There were about 3 bartenders and they were all extremely accommodating. The hostess was also very sweet. Pina colada was 10/10 :)

I was part of the graduation dinner party on May 19, 2026 and witnessed the interaction that took…read moreplace with our waitress. What happened to my friend was extremely uncomfortable and difficult to ignore. Our table had multiple people ordering alcoholic beverages, yet she was the only person singled out and told to go outside in the heat to retrieve her ID. No one else at the table was asked for identification -- including people sitting directly next to her. When my friend calmly questioned why another guest wasn't asked for ID, the waitress responded by saying it was "because she looks older." The problem with that explanation is the other guest was actually younger than my friend. As someone sitting at the table watching this happen in real time, it absolutely came across as profiling based on appearance and skin color. It shifted the entire mood of what was supposed to be a happy graduation celebration. Regardless of intent, no customer should be made to feel singled out, embarrassed, or treated differently in front of friends and family. It was disappointing to witness and should be taken seriously by management.

long time amada goer here. recently they added and changed a few things so I thought i'd give some…read moreinput. as usual the service, and ambience was impeccable. I am vegetarian, so here are my thoughts on the new items. Ensalade Verde: is the absolute best salad in the city. in the country even. absolute must get. it's big, however me and my sister still refuse to split it. definitely shareable though if you're not as greedy. Patatas Bravas: slightly different iteration than their past one. I think it's actually better. you get more potato's, more sauce, and the sauce just tastes slightly better but who knows. always ordered when we go Brussels Catalana: technically there is blue cheese in this, however, I am a certified blue cheese hater and I had no idea. so don't be turned off by that. first time having this dish and it was solid. good portion, well coated, right texture. will get again Pimientos De Pardon: shishito peppers were good, decent amount of them. I think everyone had three and we had 4 people. wouldn't get again just because there are other things more worth it but still great. Unknown Cauliflower dish: i'm not seeing it on the menu, so maybe it was just removed, but it was essentially a cauliflower gratin dish. I wouldn't get again. it was good, but lacked salt and was basically just a cauliflower in some heavy cream with a tiny amount of bread crumbs. Valenciana Paella: this has meat in it obviously, but I did eat around the pieces. if you're vegetarian and don't mind your food touching the meat, it's very easy to pick around. all the meat pieces are medium sized. This was very good, the rice was amazing, the watercress was so good. presentation was great. worth the time and money especially if you eat meat Ganache de Chocolate: pretty good. honestly interested in trying the rice pudding next. or just ordering another patatas bravas for dessert. shareable between two people. Passion fruit mocktail: MUST GET for all non drinkers! expensive? yes. worth it? yes. taste is great and it's also a nice thing to have if you're with others who drink and don't want to be left out. it's set up just like an alcoholic drink would be.

I did a tour around Philly and decided to pop in here for happy hour and I was pleasantly surprised…read moreby how good everything was. The atmosphere is dimly lit and romantic, as I was eating alone I sat at the bar. There were plenty of seating available so that was a plus for me Service was quick and attentive Garlic shrimp: 4/5, loved it! I love the garlic flavor of shrimp which was cooked to perfection. Chicken skewers: 4/5, loved! The chicken was moist and packed with flavor. I enjoyed my meal here and my overall experience

We drive from our hometown about an hour and a half away, recommended by a friend, is in north…read morePhilly so don't expect a luxury restaurant, their thing is simple amazing puertorican food and flavors, the staff was very polite, the place had a welcoming clean vibe, prices were fantastic, and the service was incredibly fast. Now the food... As soon as they bought the first appetizer (morcillas) we felt the island culinary richness. The alcapurrias, OMG as perfect as they can be and if you know what this are, you understand the complexity of getting it right, the Rellenos de Papas, different on the outside but the same rich savory flavor. Pernil (pork) was moist, not greasy and well-seasoned, tasteful cuerito. Default on the side was the Mayo-ketchup for the salad, how more Puerto Rican could it get? The tostones were fried to perfection with mashed garlic on top. The chuletas smelled like chicharron just the right amount of tenderness, flavorful with the crispy edges. The arroz blanco, habichuelas and carne guisada (rice & beans with beef stew) bring back our mothers and grandmothers' taste to the mouth. Cuajito, now we knew we had to take our hats off for the authentic incredibly good taste. Is not a place for selfies but to eat excellent traditional Puerto Rican food, so if you're in Philadelphia or nearby I highly recommend you stop here and get the true taste of Puerto Rico!!!!!

Authentic Puertorican cuisine. Steak and tostones are my favorite. I get the yucca all the time…read more Rotisserie chicken excellent. They also serve morcilla, not all places make good but her it is delicious. N
