Came here for brunch on Sunday! Ordered a mimosa and their steak and eggs. The steak was absolutely delicious and well seasoned! Our server Chrissy was super friendly. The ambiance was also a lot of fun with the music and dj. Would come again! read more

Expensive bar food. Kind of reminds me of a tgi Fridays but for the modern day. Service was fine.

We came here for our friend's birthday brunch and it was so fun! The music was amazing but it is loud so you're not really able to have too much conversation! They were able to store our friend's cake for us. The food was okay and the mimosa tower was awesome. They do have a strict 1.5 hr time limit that they enforce. Overall, it was a good place to have some fun while brunching! read more

Visiting Philly, I was so excited to visit SET NoLibs again, but unfortunately I was disappointed with the food this time. Most of the food was okay, but didn't live up to the standard of my first visit. The item enjoyed most was definitely the tempura shrimp poppers -- I am still a big fan of these. However, it felt like the nachos and grilled chicken sliders experienced a decrease in quality compared to my initial visit. The items weren't as fresh, and it feels as though they substituted elements of the dish for cheaper ingredients. The food was still okay, but not as special as I initially remembered this place. Service here also wasn't the best; our server wasn't the friendliest. The aesthetic of this restaurant is still cool and bold. While I had an alright time at SET NoLibs, I'm pretty disappointed with how this restaurant has changed. read more

We went here for my friend's birthday brunch and had a good time! There's a lot of seating but does get hard to move around when it's packed. The DJ was absolutely amazing and the drinks were delicious. The Hangover tots were delicious and I got the guacamole and tomato in the side to mix in as I pleased. Our food and drinks came pretty quickly and our waitress was amazing. They even do a free birthday shot for the birthday people! I would definitely visit again. read more

I stumbled on SET because my PT place is a block away. I first tried their chargrilled oysters, absolutely great. Went back the NEXT day and got them again, also the steak and shrimp kabobs. The steak was great. No lie, I'm here again (I hate to cook for just me), got the oysters and shrimp tacos. Oysters, again, great. Tacos were good, didn't quite realize they were so saucy, but they were good. All and all, great place to go, check it out! read more

I was out and about in the city, just enjoying the weather after attending the Fishtown Flea Market. I decided to head over to No. Libs for food since I was starving. I stumbled upon Set No Libs after dining there before years ago. I walked in to an extremely loud dining room at 4:00 pm and I could barely hear the host. She advised dinner would start at 5:00 pm. I asked if I could grab a table outside and just relax with a drink, she said I could. I ordered a Long Island Iced Tea and sat out front to enjoy some people watching until dinner service started. At 5:00 pm, I promptly returned to the dining room and asked for menus. Our waiter popped outside and greeted us. We ordered food promptly. For an appetizer, we tried buffalo wings. For my entree I had the chopped cheese tacos and my partner had a burger. The wings arrived maybe 15 mins later. They were delicious. I liked the smokey flavor and the mango habanero sauce was tasty. Next up, my chopped cheese tacos were soooo good. The ground beef with the tater tots, cheese and bacon all paired perfectly together. The tacos actually tasted like an "Italian Cheeseburger" for those who are familiar, you know what I mean. My partner enjoyed his burger too. Set No Libs lived up to our previous visit. There is no doubt we will revisit in the near future. read more

The fries are perfectly crispy and waffle. The spicy sesame chicken sliders were delicious. The jalapeños poppers were great. Not too spicy though. If you like your stuff to bite back you won't like them as much as I did. We got the oysters and clams. Absolutely delicious. I would def come back. read more

Went to Set NoLibs in Philly for brunch and overall had a great time! The highlight was definitely the mimosa tower...super fun for a group and really well done. If you're going for a lively brunch with drinks, this is the move. Food-wise, it was a bit of a mix. I tried the steak, which was just okay...not bad, but not something I'd order again. On the other hand, the tacos were amazing! Flavorful, well-seasoned, and definitely the star of the meal. The atmosphere is upbeat and stylish, perfect for a weekend outing with friends. Would go back, but probably stick to the tacos and drinks next time. read more

Came here for a birthday party, this place is definitely a whole vibe. Dj Crank was on point, had the whole place going crazy. Too loud to have conversations but I guess that's the point. Food was ok, some of our food was served lukewarm. The chicken wings were pretty good but some were fried too hard. The steak was great and the service was ok. I will say the waitress we had was on point she was fast and very patient with our large party. read more

Recently moved to the area and went here with my dog (outdoor area is pet friendly!). The vibe is pretty cool and server was OK. I went on a Wed and had their wings special, which was discounted though still pretty expensive. Although I do consider it one of the better wings in the city, I find that it was still a bit overpriced. However, would recommend! read more

SET NoLibs - Steak and eggs - Tacos Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

We came here in early February to meet with a family member visiting from out of town. I chose SET as our brunch spot because I heard good things and wanted to give a good impression of Philly's brunches. Well, it did not go too well and not representative of other meal experiences elsewhere I've had. So I made reservations a few days in advance so getting seated was quick and easy. The restaurant was darkly lit with a lot of wood furniture throughout. Folks were upbeat and it seemed to be decently busy for a Sunday. All things normal but here is where things went left. The server was obnoxiously rude for absolutely no reason. It was our first time so we asked questions but he seemed very annoyed, but we let it go and got the answers we needed. Also he was also very sweaty and had food on his lips which wasn't appealing but again we gave the benefit of the doubt and showed no disdain. The adults ended up ordering chicken and waffles that was decently good which is why I'm giving more than 1 star. I don't know that I would rush to give SET another try. read more

So usually I'm here only either at night time or on weekdays, but not weekends during brunch time. Finally I made it and specifically for Steak and eggs skillet, because they only served it on weekend brunch menus. Oh my, it did not disappoint me at all. It was delicious! Everything from the steak to the eggs were cooked perfectly! This one is a must order! SET is an Asian fusion restaurant. They make the best finger food, with an Asian twist to it, can't go wrong with anything you ordered here. From their waffle fries, tater tots, slider, wings, etc., Everything is amazing! Staffs are friendly and I love their bartenders, they're super nice and make the best cocktails. Overall excellent services and cool vibe at nighttime. Highly recommended if you looking for some yummy bar food and drinks. This is the place! read more

TOO LOUD FOR 5PM. My group of 3 originally got seated right by the speaker which was playing music at a deafening volume. We asked to be reseated, and luckily, they accommodated. Our new seating area was a tad quieter, although that did not last, because they turned up the volume even more. The restaurant wasn't even that crowded for the volume to be that loud. The food was delicious. I ordered the 15$ skewers and got one shrimp, one steak, and one chicken. However, the food isn't worth the potential hearing loss and loss of voice. read more

I ate here a week ago, paid for my meal. chicken and waffles(2 orders)....a week later I'm charged $150 out of no where and they had no explanation as to why but said they would refund me today. This was yesterday. I called today and my number is blocked. I know this because I called from a different number and the same lady I spoke with with picked up and hung up when she heard my voice. DO NOT EAT HERE SND IF YOU DO DONT USE UOUR DEBIT CARD. They are saving peoples debit card number and making fraudulent charges. I wouldn't recommend this place to a dog read more

Stopped through on a Wednesday evening with my old lady. It was a little poppin with a DJ, $1 wings (6 wing minimum) and $5 Jameson shots. The wing flavor selection was insanely limited: salt and pepper jalapeño, sesame, and soy garlic. I got the salt and pepper jalapeño and my lady got the soy garlic. Them jawns were a lil small and a lil over battered. Their fries though....on point! Def was a cool chill spot to grab some shots and wings. Probably wouldn't get down with their wings though. read more

The food here is good and the service is good but there are a few things that I do not like about this restaurant. First, as others have said, the 20% gratuity is automatically taken. Second, we have to scan a QR code to get the menu on our phones instead of being given actual physical menus. Lastly, it is very noisy. I guess it's a good place to have drinks with friends but not so much to have dinner. read more

Our SET NoLibs experience was fine: service was good, but the food wasn't anything to return for. We shared the: - Bulgogi Cheesesteak Sliders (3-count Korean BBQ Marinated Sliced Ribeye, Bell Peppers, Onions, & Tex Mex Cheese with Chipotle Mayo), which were overly salty--a tangy slaw would've helped lift the flavor profile; - Sesame Chicken Thigh Sliders (Fried with a Tangy Soy Garlic Sauce), which were dry--more sauce would have helped--and not at all spicy; and - Cajun Waffle Fries, which were the best of the three items ordered, but we weren't sure what made them "Cajun"--that said, they were hot and crispy. If you're in the mood for bar food, SET NoLibs may be for you; if you're looking for good food, head elsewhere. read more

My husband and I decided to check this place out. It was a terrible decision. First of all, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the place was empty. When I walked in, the host was scrolling on his phone as I asked if we could sit outside. Once we decided which table we would sit at, we realized it was filthy. When the host finally came out, we asked if he could clean the table, which he did. After scanning the QR code to see the menu, we waited a long time before the same host came out to take our order. He did provide an excuse as to why he was delayed. Once we ordered, we were told an ID AND a CREDIT CARD were needed, and it would be given back when we were ready to pay the bill. No drinks were ordered. I asked if it was because people dine and dash or something else. He didn't exactly admit the reason but stated they ask everyone who dines at their restaurant, in or out. I did give him my cards, but I immediately asked for them back because I was shocked and nervous about a stranger holding my information. Also, when I went in to retrieve my ID and Credit card, it was sitting on the bar on display. My husband and I have dined all over the US and have never had to provide such. I will never go back to this place due to this sketchy policy. Has anyone else experienced this? Swipe my card for an open bar order but give my card BACK. read more

Yesterday I was working in this area and I remembered that this place was located very close by and since I can't get in during happy hour time, I decided to go over and check them out. Parking: Very limited due to restaurants setting up outdoor seating and construction. I suggest parking somewhere close by and walking or catching a ride share. I found a parking spot, so I knew that the food gods wanted me to go in and try this place. I sat at the bar. Mike was my server, and he was very helpful and nice. Drink: I chose the cheeky tiki, and it was pretty good; it had a nice kick to it. If you like, sweet, definitely try it. I got mixed reviews online about the charbroiled oysters; however, I took a chance and ordered them. The oysters were nice and tender very garlicky, which I loved, and they had flavor; however, I wish they were a little more charbroiled. The Oysters do not come with any type of bread, so Mike suggested that I get the bread that normally comes with the mussels. The bread complimented the oysters very well! they should start offering this bread with the charbroiled Oysters also. Overall, I enjoyed my oysters and my drink, and I can't wait to go back to try back to try other things on the menu. read more

Fun atmosphere when my friend and I walked in :) We had a reservation at 6 and we're a bit early but the staff didn't mind and had our table ready for us already! The menu consist of sets of food (sandwich + skewer + fries) or you can choose a set of tacos, sandwiches, skewers and appetizers. I decided to go with set #3 which came with a banh mi butter steak sandwich, sweet Italian sausage skewer and Cajun fries. I also wanted to try the garlic Cajun shrimp skewer too. My friend who is vegan was excited for her options. Unfortunately the vegan cheese steak egg rolls were out that night but she enjoyed her veggie tacos, vegan chicken nuggets and veggie skewer. We got two drinks while waiting and they were both pretty good and strong! We were jealous of the towers of cocktails at tables near us. Food was pretty good. Thought it was a bit pricey but you get a decent amount of it. It was a fun experience! Def. Want to come back and try their brunch menu read more

Let me start off by saying I loved it here and cannot wait to return! With that out of the way, went to brunch -- there was mimosas! The end! LOL! Of course, I wanted the mimosa tower for $69 (it's better for maybe 3 or more people). It was just my friend and I. She met me here (drove over an hour to Philly). We opted for the bottle of champagne w/ OJ $35. I got a shot of peach flavor to go with my mimosa. I enjoyed every drop and loved mixing in the OJ, champagne and peach! On point...delicious. Buzzzzzed! I ordered the hangover tots!!! I did not know I wanted this in my life! I loved this yummy, hot mess, of a concoction! Friend is vegan and she enjoyed her meal too! Made reservations several days in advance for Sunday brunch on OpenTable. Outdoor seating was the only spots available (at the time)-- I snagged it! The reservations are a hot commodity I see. We were both running a bit late. There's a little bit of a grace period and the employees here were very accommodating to our delay. Customer service was good too! Love...this...spot...for...BRUNCH! read more

First time at SET NoLibs. Went in with high expectations given that I heard this was Asian fusion. Service was fantastic! Given that I went in on a game night, the ambiance was very loud due to the baseball game playing on many TVs. Food was yummy, but didnt really showcase the Asian fusion aspect. The loaded tots were the favorite of the night, and the slider set was delicious but slightly underwhelming due to it being mostly fries and less skewer / slider. read more

Food was mediocre and cold. Skewers we're dry and cold. Waffle fries taste worse than frozen ones I get from the grocery store. Just a loud restaurant. Hostess seemed really clueless. Booth was dirty with oily fingerprints. Server walked by randomly spraying his spray bottle with cleaning solution, which wafted over to our table because he opened the door to the outdoors and the wind blew it right it our direction. 20% automatic gratuity. Yelp says this place is "classy" and "moderate noise". Far from that. read more

My friends and I came here to grab some food before a concert. 3 of us got sliders and the other person got cheeseburger tacos. The chicken sliders were just ok, as were the bulgogi sliders. Nothing really special. My friend loved the cheeseburger tacos though. We also got a loaded tot appetizer. When they say loaded they mean LOADED so make sure your a fan of your food touching, lol. Overall, it's a decent place but there is not a lot of servers like at all AND the food could be better in my opinion. We didn't try the drinks but the people around us seemed to be enjoying theirs. read more

This is my new go-to spot! I'm so happy that I decided to change things up and step into SET NoLibs! Their ambiance, music, and food options were fantastic! Not to forget to mention the awesome bartender, Chris. I was surprised to see that SET NoLibs had a lot of vegan options, which were absolutely phenomenal! I have been craving cheese egg rolls for a long time, but no restaurants ever have a vegan option so my day was made! My sister and I decided to sit at the bar and we had a field day lol. Chris made excellent drinks and even allowed us to have whiskey drinks in a cocktail glass per the request of my sister. He's the absolute bomb! The only downside is that their happy hour specials aren't that great. It's only the top three cocktails (boooooo). Side note: I learned to not go off of their Facebook page because some of it is for the NYC location. read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. Set nolibs has SET THE BAR very high. In a world where the dining experience has suffered due to challenges beyond the control of those in the industry, Set has managed to create a spectacular example of what to do. They are adhering and going above and beyond to comply with safety standards due to Covid. The outdoor space is heated and filled with the perfect ambiance. The happy 3 hours is as tasty as it is a value. Can we talk about service though. This is where the evening truly shined. Friendly, informative, safe, personable, attentive, kind, knowledgeable, and such thoughtfulness in our server and staff. Between the atmosphere and the service we anticipated and fully expected the food quality to be amazing. It sure as heck was! Got the tots, oysters, tacos, and about 5 of their winter drink offerings. The food is bright, delicious and well seasoned. Can't wait to go back for the clams, mussels and pretty much the rest of their menu nomnomnom, go here! Oh, they are furbaby friendly too!!! read more

SET NoLibs is very versatile, having a menu for just about every part of the day and occasion. I went there for lunch, sat outside, and was told that the restaurant needed to hold our card since folks may run off without paying the tab. Nonetheless, my food was pretty solid, and the fried wontons were a great addition to my dish. The home potatoes weren't my favorite, but everything else was pretty solid. For those of you interested in mimosas, this is the place for you. Pretty solid, and will be going back. 10/10 recommend. read more
