I personally always enjoy coming to Grandma's. The food has always been delicious and I'm…read morepersonally a fan of dishes coming out as soon as they're done. I do recommend making a reservation as they can be pretty slammed on Fridays/weekends. The Srirachi wings had a nice crunch to them while still keeping the chicken juicy inside. It would've been nice to have an even amount of wings to drumsticks though, as I like flats more, but thats just a personal preference. The crabmeat fried rice was amazing, a really good portion of chunks of crabmeat mixed in so each spoonful had some. The duck curry was a "Grandma's special" so a much bigger portion and cost - but reasonable. The duck wasnt dry and had a good flavor throughout, not relying on the curry to give taste. The curry also had a hint of sweetness to it which complements the greasiness of the duck. The papaya salad felt very refreshing - we got it at level one as to not overpower our taste buds with all the other food. I did get some chili pepper on the side to add in later. My one recommendation is having Thai peppers as an option instead of dried chili flakes. I much prefer the taste of fresh Thai pepper to add the extra heat. The mango sticky rice is always a favorite. The mango is soft and ripe, the right amount of sweetness. They also mix pandan in with the sticky rice for a more impactful umami (Im also a big advocate for pandan in desserts).

The food was good, but they need to train their servers. I came in at 2 pm for lunch, and there…read morewere two lady servers. One of them took the order with low menu knowledge, and then the food runner delivered the food. We ordered papaya salad and soup for appetizers. I asked the lady server for an extra bowl to share the soup, but it never came even by the time we finished our main course. Nobody came to our table after we finished our main course to deliver the bowl, refill water, or even ask about the food. They were busy assisting other tables around us, and we felt unseen. Very unpleasant, but fortunately the chef did a great job -- all the food was on point and tasty. You should order the rachada duck! Hopefully they can improve the service.

Cuisine: 8 Service: 8…read moreDecor: 9 Value: 7 Overall: 9 I rarely give a restaurant five stars when the food is doesn't score a 9 or 10. Don't get me wrong, the food here is wonderful, but it is not on the highest levels that I would normally give five stars. However, our experience having brunch in their gorgeous backyard garden was extremely delightful. The weather had a major part to play in that. Four of us enjoyed a wonderful meal under a sunny sky on a slightly balmy day. With the heat lamps nearby, and lush green trees blocking the sun from our eyes, it felt amazing to dine al fresco. There were communal tables, but they seated each party far enough to feel like you're alone with your group only. Weekend brunch is a set menu at $42/person. Our five starters arrived and it was a colorful spread. The creamy Hummous (8/10) and smokey Baba Ganoush (8.5/10) were both excellent. I also enjoyed the peppery Muhammara (7.5/10) and velvety Labneh (7.5/10), but the vinegary Taboulé (8.5/10) may have been the best version I ever had. For entrees, I ordered the Samke Harra (7.5/10), which was a perfectly grilled piece of branzino filet. The spicy walnut sauce didn't really enhance the dish for me though. However, I did get to try my friends' Kafta Kebab (8.5/10) and Halabi Kebab (9/10), which were both juicy and absolutely delicious. I lean slightly towards the Halabi Kebab because of my preference for the flavor of lamb and its accompanying sauce. Lastly, their Dubai Chocolate & Pistachio Financier (8/10) was very tasty. I would say that the texture felt more like a brownie and not a financier, but it was good regardless. Rich chocolate and strong pistachio flavors blend together nicely with the crispiness of the finely shredded phyllo. Btw, though we chose to eat in the outdoor garden, the indoor decor is top notch too. The large open kitchen dining room and bar seating also provide a fantastic environment for patrons. As for service, from the hostess to our servers, everyone was friendly and always had a smile. Looking forward to my next visit, which will be soon.

Trader Joe's steak was disgusting, DiBruno brothers steak was ok but not worth the price. This place is 100% the real deal! You can get quality meat cut to order. We got an enormous bone in prime rib for $10 a pound! Their incredibly tasty filet is $15 a pound. When cooked up at home this was incredibly tasty and fresh with an excellent meaty flavor! When you eat a cut like filet the quality matters a lot because you eat it so rare. This meat is of excellent quality and I would not hesitate to even make a steak tartare from their products. They are also practicing excellence social distancing techniques, only two people at a time are allowed in the store. In short we could not recommend this place more highly and we intend to go back every single week!

I was surprised at the price but the sandwich is so big we really could have split one but ordering two left us they both. The beef is so tender it reminded me of chinese beef stew for some reason. Not that it tasted like chinese beef stew but the texture was just so melt in your mouthy! Loved the veggies on it and the sauce! chicken shawarma maroosh style 5/5: Son and DIL loved it here and recommended it.

It's a nice place with just a couple of booths inside. Originally I was only going to give it 4 stars cuz the way it's set up is weird when they tell you where to stand and where to go...it just didn't feel warm and inviting when you walk in but honestly when I'm in philly again I will make it a point to stop by so that makes it a 5 in my book.

One of the staff recommended this non-alcoholic beers they had it various flavors which I'm sort of hooked on. I can't remember the brand but I usually go Apple or Strawberry.

Their chicken kebab is amazing too; the rice is some of the best I've had. And we always generously douse it in their white sauce, some of the best sauce I've had. I think the flavor profile is great even for people who can't handle spice, it's flavorful and very manageable even for mild Western palates.

And I called in advance to see if they catered for people with dietary restrictions which they mentioned they did. I think it's a fine place to go if you eat meat but I wouldn't go if you don't! The options for vegetarians were a lentil rice dish and a chickpea rice dish so it was very carb heavy with not too much of a focus on protein. I liked the eggplant that had in the beginning but other than the food was meh. The service was nice and the short bellydancing performance was fun but I wasn't the biggest fan of the food. Especially when they give you served us a fruit plate containing unopened apples and oranges and bananas at the end that was kind of strange.
