1216 Walnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19107
Lisa S. writes: When I moved to Philadelphia I was unsure where to go so I checked on the Bumble and Bumble website and decided to try it out. I am so glad I did. $50 for a haircut is almost half of what I paid in NY and the cuts have been just as cute and…
Eternity Fashion
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center
1522 Chestnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19102
Molly D. writes: Shopping Eternity is one of my all-time favorite lunchtime activities. I don't usually get too many clothes there, but I almost ALWAYS walk out with at least one pair of shoes. They have super cute, fun and bright shoes in every height (though in my…
Dots Inc
Neighborhood: Market East
1125 Chestnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19107
Jacquelin K. writes: What's impressive about Dots is that half of the store is devoted to plus sizes. I've found that most retailers are all or nothing when it comes to plus sizes, but this Dots splits its store right down the middle. Like the other stores on the Dots…

333 Dartmouth Ave
Swarthmore,
PA
19081

Aso Sushi Japanese Restaurant
Neighborhood: Market East
719 Walnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19106
Rachel A. writes: Major sushi cravings hit last night, and we struck off for Aoi, our tried-and-true sushi place. Finding it closed, we turned east and headed for Aso (Three-letter names that both start with A, but no relation!).
The dining room is a little classier…
Casanova Grill
Crispin Sq
Marlton,
NJ
08053
Janelle T. writes: Casanova Grill is located in a small shopping center on North Maple Avenue (off Church Road) near the Marlton - Mt Laurel border. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but to my surprise, my dinner was outstanding. The dining room was average;…
Free Library of Phila
Neighborhood: Powelton Village
3950 Walnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19104
Jacquelin K. writes: Brand new, beautiful facility at the edge of Penn's campus on the ever bustling 40th and Walnut intersection. Unlike the central branch, as endearing as its dankness may be, this building suffers no shortage of natural light. The space open to the…
Modell's Sporting Goods
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center
Snyder Plz
Philadelphia,
PA
19102
Jake P. writes: If City Sports is the Honda Accord of sporting goods, Modell's is the Chevy Cavalier. It gets the job done, on the shorter term, and compromises style for price (not to offend any Cavalier owners)
I think Modell's is where you should go if you need a…
Red Sky Lounge
Neighborhood: Olde City
224 Market St
Philadelphia,
PA
19106
Dana G. writes: I ate here mistakenly while staying at the Omni. I had scoped out several places to eat that I could walk to. I wanted sushi or seafood. I mulled over going to Buddakan (

Lena's Nails
2803 Philadelphia Pike
Claymont,
DE
19703
Jill K. writes: Certainly friendly, I'll give 'em that.
Nothing super-special about their pedicures; they did a perfectly reasonable job. Things looked clean, people were nice (it started raining suddenly and one of the girls offered to shut my car windows) and…
Cosmopolitan Club Phila
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square
1616 Latimer St
Philadelphia,
PA
19103
Jake P. writes: No, this is not where the gals of Sex & The City go to drink when in the 215. What it is, which I find pretty interesting, is an urban womens club that dates back to the feminist movement of the 1920s.
I was invited here for a presentation, and I was…
Hot Potato Cafe
Neighborhood: Fishtown
529 E Girard Avenue
Philadelphia,
PA
19176
Amy E. writes: I loved it here. I just moved to the area and this is probablly the best place to eat in Fishtown. I was only there once, but many more times to come. It is very clean and the service was wonderful. I had the Shepard's pie and it was delicous!…
Don's Bagels
Double Tree Shopping Center
Dalton Dr
Glassboro,
NJ
08028
Jenna C. writes: I think this place is weird. While they have a good selection of bagels (which are nice and fresh) and spreads, I always feel out of place here. You really need to know what you want when you get up to the counter. i always feel rushed. Also,…
Word of Mouth Restaurant
729 Haddon Avenue
Collingswood,
NJ
08108
Dave H. writes: A fine casual dining experience amongst elaborate decor. When we were there, a model was modeling clothes and jewelry. This BYOB is somwhat high-priced for a lunch spot. I ordered a burger whose patty wasn't overly remarkable but it was seasoned…
Taco House
5245 Marlton Pike
Pennsauken,
NJ
08109
Dave H. writes: The place has "authentic Mexican food" - I'm not sure I can disagree, it's more authentic than chain restaurants. A hole-in-the-wall place in a strip mall, you can get cakes here and "ethnic" drinks. Practically empty when I went but filling, tasty,…
Koreana
Neighborhood: University City
3801 Chestnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19104
Michael C. writes: This place used to be known as 38th Pizza and Korean food, but ever since it changed owners and is now called "Koreana", it focuses solely on Korean food. I'm told the Korean food now tastes better (but I can't really judge, because I never visited…
Korea Garden & Restaurant
732 Dekalb Pike
Blue Bell,
PA
19422
James G. writes: Decent! Semi-authentic ethnic Korean food in the Newtown Square / Valley Forge area. Worth the drive if you're looking for Korean food.
My wife and I ate here in October '07. We didn't want to cook our own kalbi or bulgoogi as we'd end up stinky all…
Happy Nails
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center
1937 Chestnut St
Philadelphia,
PA
19103
Kay Y. writes: My friend is a loyal customer of this humble place -- every time she's in town, she goes to Happy Nails to get her eyebrows waxed. The lady who does the waxing does her brows just the way she likes it (not too overboard but just the right amount of…
Roller's Restaurant at Flying Fish
Neighborhood: Chestnut Hill
8142 Germantown Ave
Philadelphia,
PA
19118
Kelly F. writes: 2.5 stars would probably be more exact. Roller's could use a little warmth in the atmosphere--maybe better lighting, a little music. It was pretty empty when we went, so I am sure that added to the stark feeling of the place.
We got a very nice mixed…
Dwight's Southern Bar-B-Que II
3734 Germantown Ave
Philadelphia,
PA
19140
Janelle J. writes: Well this place is a bigger than the one on Lancaster and they have more menu choices. All this means is that this is alot more crowded than the other one. Still no chairs or tables so don't expect to relax and wait on your food. Plan for at least a…
China King Restaurant
2501 S 70th St
Philadelphia,
PA
19142
Josh K. writes: So I just arrived in Philadelphia and we just ordered a bunch of Chinese food from China King Restaurant. We had the Sesame Chicken, General Tsao's Chicken, Chicken Chow Mein, Beef Chow Mein, Chicken and Broccoli, and Steamed Chicken with Mixed…
The Zodiac
The Plaza at King of Prussia
170 N. Gulph Rd
King of Prussia,
PA
19406
Dave H. writes: The Zodiac at Neiman Marcus offers continental fare at inflated prices for a restaurant of its class. (NM stands for "Needless Markup", ha-ha, get it?)
While waiting for our entrees, we enjoyed their humongous (air-filled) signature popovers (is there…

Philadelphia,
PA
19147
Josh S. writes: My fianc and I were making Thai for dinner and we stopped by here to buy some fish sauce (there were 30 varieties) and some other ingredients that are harder to come by at Acme. The prices are really really cheap and once you get past the smell…
Zeber's Bakery
1023 Germantown Pike
Plymouth Meeting,
PA
19462
Dave H. writes: My aunt recommended Roy Zeber's bakery to me (Zeber's Bakery), specifically to try their doughnuts and cinnamon buns.
I stopped by, but with the intent of getting a lemon meringue pie instead - forget exactly why! The staff was nice (Katie mentioned…
Fox and Hound Pub & Grille
211 Mall Blvd
King of Prussia,
PA
19406
Laura D. writes: Can I break the 3-star streak for this place? Nah, it pretty much defines 3 stars. But I will say that it is one of the best places in KoP to come for happy hour. They have $3 draft pints 5-7pm, and that includes the 20 or so varieties they have…
Fratelli's Brick Oven Pizza & Pasta
2 E Germantown Pike
Norristown,
PA
19401
Dave H. writes: Ordered a large pizza with onions, mushrooms, sausage, and sweet peppers. It didn't take long for the place to prepare it and the pie came out from their kitchen nice and piping hot, and tasted good! The crust was a little crunchy. Good pizza.
UPDATE:…
Baja Fresh Mexican Grill
340 W Dekalb Pike
King of Prussia,
PA
19406
Patti W. writes: Great, fresh Mexican food. Had the Quesadilla with pork carnitas. Loaded with pork and cheese, homemade tortillas, all of it stayed together, unlike some other places. Served with guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo. They have a salsa bar for…
Crazy Leprechaun Inc
Neighborhood: Kensington, Port Richmond
3589 Richmond St
Philadelphia,
PA
19134
Melanie P. writes: The Crazy Lep used to have an awesome chef and great gourmet quality food really cheap. Now it's just bar food. Service is ok and the prices are reasonable. It's your basic neighborhood bar now.

Philadelphia,
PA

Johnny's Hots
1234 N Delaware Ave
Philadelphia,
PA
19125
Frank L. writes: It doesn't get any better than a hot sausage and fishcake sandwich. Who knew that this was such a delectable pairing of meats? (is fish a meat?) Additionally, Johnny's is right next to Penn Treaty Park so you can enjoy your sandwich while taking in…
Pho Thai Nam
1510 DeKalb Pike
Blue Bell,
PA
19422
Percy N. writes: The place has some decent Pho variety (as one would hope from the name). I tried the "Special Pho" which had tripe, tendons, brisket and I think meatballs which tasted more like sausage.
Highly recommend the Vietnamese coffee, bubble tea, vermicelli…

Jenkintown,
PA
19046
Janelle J. writes: I've gone here twice to get bikini waxes by two different people and they both did good jobs. I gave this place three stars because I haven't utilized any of there other services yet. I would definitely recommend them.

Mike's Pizza
Market Pl Shopping C
Westtown,
PA
19395
Amanda S. writes: Cheap little pizza shop that knows cheesesteaks. Mike's is right around the corner from my parents house and they have decent pizza and great cheesesteaks. It's simple inside, with your plastic booths and a tiny arcade area. But the prices are right…
