Eat Drink & Be Philly • June 20, 2012It's all here ~ from fresh seafood, meats, vegetables to prepared meals of any cuisine. Plus more ~ wine, flowers, linens, cookbooks. Everything you need for a dinner party!

Molly S. • August 15, 2013Start with the fava bean hummus for a different and amazing flavor. Mezze Indulgence: the crispy haloumi. Vegetarians MUST order the smoked eggplant and lentils. Beverage of choice: the sig lemonada

Raj S. • July 8, 2015The mocha here is easily one of the best I've had and the secret is the house made chocolate sauce. The coffee selections are excellent, but try the mocha, you won't be disappointed.
