Wesley H. writes: There is a fond place in my heart for Sam Ash - it's where I bought my first real guitar: a stratocaster i ended up playing the troc with as a teenager twice.     But I bought lots of things from lots of stores, and now none of those stores are…

Sassafras International Cafe
Neighborhood: Olde City

48 S 2nd St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Tara H. writes: Old City sucks.  It's embarrassing.  If Sassafras was a person, it'd be that OTHER dork wandering around 2nd Street, trying to manage the shitstorm of human refuse.  And you might make eye contact with him, and you might say, "Hey, you wanna blow…

The Griffin Cafe
Neighborhood: Olde City

230 Market St
Philadelphia, PA 19141

michelle p. writes: This is specifically for Thursday nights, All You Can Swallow, 9pm-2am.
The Happy Hour is amazing, from 9-11 it's $3 shots and beers, $5 giant mixed drinks.  When I say giant I mean bigger than a pint glass and they are potent.  There are three dj's…

Brasil's Restaurant & Nightspot
Neighborhood: Olde City

112 Chestnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Arren A. writes: To be honest, I have never really enjoyed myself at Brasil's unless I show up with someone I know. It could be that it gets crowded there on Wednesdays and alot of people end up crashing or stepping on you.   Without that annoyance, I think I'd have…

Highland Orchards Farm Market

1431 Foulk Road
Wilmington, DE 19803

Bess W. writes: best produce in the area.  This is an oddity-- a little three-generation family farm stuck in the middle of 50s suburbia-land.  One of the three freckled blonde women (mom, daughter or granddaughter) will probably check out your fresh organic herbs,…

Morton's of Chicago-the Steakhouse
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center, Avenue of the Arts South

1411 Walnut St
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Tom G. writes: I have a problem with a la carte steakhouses.  I don't mind paying a lot for a nice dinner, not at all, but there is something inherently wrong with paying $40 for a steak that literally has had nothing done to it besides being tossed on an extremely…

Lemon Grass Thai Restaurant

314 S Henderson Road
King of Prussia, PA 19406

Alan R. writes: I don't really get the hate on this place, but I've only gotten take out so maybe the service is that bad?

Anyway I like their  panang curry more than some other places I've tried. The pad thai is good too.

Minado Japanese Seafood Buffet Restaurant

2917 Swede Rd
East Norriton, PA 19401

Alicia F. writes: Holy Asian food!!! I say Asian food as opposed to Japanese food, because though pegged as such, Minado offers up every kind of Asian food you could imagine. For twenty dollars, my friend and I came back to our table with plate after plate of…

Rock Lobster
Neighborhood: Penn's Landing

221 N Columbus Blvd
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Chris L. writes: This place is open when the weather is warm only. I heard the food is good here, but I haven't tried it. I think it may be a bit pricy. I usually come here for salsa dancing on Sunday nights. Free cover if you come before 8pm, otherwise it's 8…

Jannie Japan Chinese Cuisine
Neighborhood: Rhawnhurst

2117 Cottman Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19149

Kelly S. writes: Suprisingly good sushi and Chinese food for a restaurant in the Roosevelt Mall, one of the saddest so-called "malls" in the Philly area.  It's basically a glorified strip mall with crappy stores and lots of shifty-looking teenagers with nothing…

China Ruby
Neighborhood: Rhawnhurst

1535 Cottman Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19111

I. S. writes: I've been eating at this family owned take-out only chinese place since I was a little child.  It's all family owned and they take great care in the quality and ingrediants in the dishes.  They have great hot and sour soup, and their entrees are…

House of Jin
Neighborhood: Germantown

234 W Chelten Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19144

Dave H. writes: I was at House of Jin for an early dinner (around 4PM) awhile ago. I parked down the street, but I believe they have their own lot. The interior of the restaurant is well-furnished (probably why their Chinese dishes are pricey) and can handle a large…

Univ. of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology
Neighborhood: University City

3260 South St
Philadelphia, PA 19104

Dontae W. writes: Excellent museum.  There are very few museums that I feel like i want to go back to right away.  The U of Penn Museum is a hidden jewel in the city. One can find information about Asia, Africa, Europe, and America.  The mummys/Egyptian exhibit was a…

Yuengling beer

Philadelphia, PA 19176

Joe G. writes: If yer Back East and wanna catch a twist then go get a case of these MF'ers for $18. This light lager beats the S out of Bud, Pabst Blue Ribbon (hipster water), Coors etc. In a can or bottle get your swerve on with the oldest brew in America.…

Chick-Fil-A

160 North Gulph Road
King Of Prussia, PA 19406

Jonathan G. writes: Best. Fast. Food. Ever.

Exhibit A: Waffle Fries. The pinnacle of potato perfection.

Exhibit B: Real Lemonade. Lemons, cane sugar, water. What does it say about our society that this is a big deal?

Exhibit C: The chicken sandwich. The best tasting…

Bistro Di Marino

492 Haddon Ave
Collingswood, NJ 08108

ericalynn g. writes: All you can eat lunch buffet is the way to go here.  It's about $10 per person, and you have your pick of basically everything they offer.  When I visited, there were two hot soups, four salads, and six hot entrees, all of which were freshly prepared…

Dairy Queen

Valley Forge Shoppin
King of Prussia, PA 19406

Mel P. writes: Damn, I wish they had one in SF! Dairy Queen is yummy in my tummy!! It was a hot day in PA and I needed something to cool down.  This was the perfect treat! I got the sundae--two scoops of that creamy vanilla--topped with chocolate, strawberry and…

Pine Hill Golf Club

500 W Branch Ave
Pine Hill, NJ 08021

Mike R. writes: Pine Hill Golf Club is great! It was ranked #31 best places to play a few years ago, and is worth the $100 greens fees. Immaculate course, with each of the holes nestled in the New Jersey pines. The course encompasses some of the highest points in…

Adolf Biecker Salon

508 W Lancaster Ave
Wayne, PA 19087

Kim P. writes: When I moved to the Philly burbs from Boston, I was of course VERY worried about who would become my new hairdresser. ;)

Adolf Biecker is an Aveda salon.  The colorist, Michelle, is the best in Philly, in my opinion.  (She's actually won that award, I…

Morris Arboretum

100 East Northwestern Avenue
Philadelphia, PA 19118

K W. writes: Attended a wedding here.  An amazing party for an amazing couple at an equally amazing venue.  So beautiful.  The wedding aisle was set up facing rolling hills.  At 6pm the verdant hills in the distance took on a hazy, romantic cast.  Cocktails…

Shane Candies
Neighborhood: Olde City

110 Market St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Carrie E. writes: I stopped by here today because my blood sugar was feeling dangerously low and I was also feeling amazingly generous and thought I would try for mom of the year by buying my kids some candy. But lo! This is a chocolate lovers paradise. Lots of stuff…

Sonny's Famous Steaks
Neighborhood: Olde City

228 Market St
Philadelphia, PA 19106

stephy s. writes: There are several reasons why I, in this lifetime, will avoid being a vegetarian or vegan at any and all costs. One of the reasons is that I absolutely love meat. It tastes good, it's filling, it makes my tummy smile and it pairs well with the nice…

Bucks County Coffee Co
Neighborhood: University City

3430 Sansom St
Philadelphia, PA 19104

Gwen M. writes: The only bad thing about Buck's is that it's not open 24 hours.  (Okay, and the retarded saloon-style door that will make you spill your coffee, fall down the steps, and/or whack someone in the face.)  Everything else is awesome -- the coffee, the…

Vintage Home

83 E Lancaster Ave
Paoli, PA 19301

Kim P. writes: AAAAGH I want to give it 10 stars!!!  

Vintage home moved a couple of doors down to a much larger location, and their selection is AMAZING!  If you are furnishing your shore house (as I am) or going for the cottage/shabby chic look, this is the place…

Whole Foods Market

821 W Lancaster Ave
Wayne, PA 19087

Steph C. writes: Since discovering that all the new Giants have great healthfood sections, Whole Foods has rapidly declined in stardom. They don't have the niche amymore. Lots of times their produce lasts half as long whether conventional or organic. The drive has…

Waterloo Gardens Inc

136 Lancaster Ave
Devon, PA 19333

Kim P. writes: Wow, what a great garden center!

Waterloo gardens is huge - and their location in Exton is even bigger.  This one in Devon, however, is enormous considering where it's located.  They have a large selection of plants of course, but also have a very…

Rick's Steaks
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

Reading Term
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Jennifer L. writes: I reek of cheesesteak right now but it was so worth it.  I had to go big and get it with Whiz - as I recommend you do as well.  The combo probably isn't worth it unless you're a huge eater.  The sandwiches are so big that even though I was starving,…

Yokohama Japanese Restaurant

300 S Lenola Rd
Maple Shade, NJ 08052

Tina Y. writes: This place has absolutely delicious sushi. Not even just the sushi is amazing - the vegetable dumplings, ginger salad, and green tea is beyond incredible. The waitresses are all very sweet and excited to be helping you. Also, they have probably the…

Haru
Neighborhood: Olde City

241 Chestnut Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106

Justin V. writes: So it's an expensive joint, right?  The kind you take your lady to when you find out she's pregnant and your brother left his wallet on the dryer with all his credit cards in it.  The ingredients are fresh, the rollmaster is SERIOUSLY Japanese and…

Cache

60 N Gulph Rd # 6219
King of Prussia Plaza
King Of Prussia, PA 19487

Safrona O. writes: Want to buy FUN clothes for special occasions and a big night on the town?  Here's the place to shop.  Their stuff is fun and sexy, NOT clothes to wear to work (at least not most of it, I have worn some of the shells etc. under jackets).  A little…

Miel Patisserie
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

204 S 17th St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Bethany W. writes: Oh, Miel. Why must your pastries - your tiny little pastries - cost so much money that I feel ashamed for buying them?  It's not as though I can simply say to myself, "$6?! Your pastries aren't even that GOOD!"...because they are. Not only do you…

Joan Shepp Boutique
Neighborhood: Rittenhouse Square, Penn Center

1616 Walnut St Lbby 1
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Arielle G. writes: As a fashion student I really appreciated the way the store is merchandised, it almost reminds me of Jeffrey New York. I also think the selection of clothing is edited really nicely and I was definitely impressed to see things I would probably…

The Cheesecake Factory

931 Haddonfield Rd
The Marketplace at Garden State Park
Cherry Hill, NJ 08002

Pamela A. writes: I went here with a group of people that had been before and they were raving about it.  Because it is located in Haddonfield, where there are people packed into the city like sardines, there was a 30 min. wait.  The service was decent.  The food was…
