Little funky vibe but great food. Too much dressing on their salad. Need to work this out. OK, You're big boys now, Hire an Interior designer to get rid of the greasy floor and weird ass vibe in the dining room. Better yet - get on a celebrity food show! read more

I had dinner here with a friend who bought a Groupon and I really liked it! We really enjoyed it and will be back. We started with a Spicy Shrimp Skewer appetizer to share. It was seasoned perfectly because we both like spicy things and it was very spicy. It was served on top of a yogurt and cucumber dip that helped combat the spice. For my main entree I ordered a Roasted Turkey Panini on Wheat bread and it was served with a side salad. The panini was so good! It had goat cheese, pesto and on it with some greens. It was delicious and I recommend it! read more

This is a hole in the wall gem. This restaurant is a block away from Broad Street. Parking is metered street parking, and you may have difficulty finding a spot close to the restaurant. By 5pm, the 6 metered spots nearest to the restaurant is only for valet parking for the restaurant next door. Fuel is not handicap accessible, there is only limited seating capacity. Their single Male/Female bathroom is large and clean. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. The Sweet Pea Wonton we had was delicious. I am on a hot mission to try and find a similar or exact replica of this dish online so I could make it at home. The Smoked Salmon Wrap and Fuel Stacker Panini were both delicious. I have no complaints at all. I left satisfied but not overstuffed. I will definitely return back here again. read more

Fuel - I love this place they always have something creative...it is a must come healthy eating - Vegetarian Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Stopped in for a quick takeout weekend lunch. Wanted something a bit on the healthy side so I decided to give Fuel a try. This location definitely looks like a cool place to eat-in, there was only one other couple there when I went to pick up my Sunday afternoon salad. I got the Deconstructed Guacamole salad with the addition of chicken. The lime jalapeno vinaigrette was perfect for the sizable salad which had generous chunks of avocado. While it may seem a little more expensive than your typical lunch joint, one must remember the ingredients do seem fresher and the portions are well-sized. I will definitely keep this place in mind for a casual dinner or weekday lunch option. read more

Eons passed since my first review - food now consistently fab in South Philly. Or maybe I only eat a smaller section of the menu now. Super happy to be able to get veggies to go during The 'Rona read more

Just stumbled upon this Fuel location w a friend a few weeks ago and went in for lunch. We both had exactly the same thing, soup and the pitatini. It was amazing could have eaten two. Can't wait to go again. read more

I'm so happy to live across the street from this spot. I first stopped in after moving into my place. I had an extreme sinus head-ache, and the guy working saved my life. He was like "I got you," and loaded this flatbread up with sriracha...............SCORE. Everybody is always really friendly and polite. I haven't tried the entire menu yet, but it's easy to say i'm addicted to their smoothies ... read more

Went to the one in south philly on a Sunday around 11 am. I was expecting it to be busy, but there was absolutely no one there. Weird. I had a groupon I wanted to use which was dine-in only so I ate there. It's really small it could probably fit 20 people at max. Anyways the food was delicious I got the protein pancakes and my bf got the buckwheat pancakes which were both very filling. They also have unlimited coffee during the brunch hours which is awesome. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because we waited about 30 minutes for our food which I think is long especially since there was no one there. The waitress was really nice though. read more

Fuel - Buckwheat pancakes (top) protein pancakes (bottom) - Vegetarian Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Such a great place for lunch! They have so many options for vegetarians and vegans but you can also add chicken to almost any dish if you're dining with meat-eaters. I had the "ridiculously delicious" kale salad with lox and it was amazing. My boyfriend had the "T.B.M." Panini with chicken and he said it was good but the chicken was really dry and hard to eat which is why we took off a star. We shared the chocolate mouse cake afterward and that was awesome as well! Really great service. read more

Once again, more super unfriendly service. The gal that seemed to be in charge was nice to me, but the girl at the register was snobby, unfriendly, and barely said anything save for a puss on the face. And, as is also the norm I've come to expect at this location, it took over 5 minutes for the 1 smoothie that I ordered. Sunday, 11/1/15 @ 1:15 p.m. (sitting and waiting for me smoothie at this moment) I'm giving 2 stars thanks to the girl that helped the mean girl when she turned and stared at her dumbfounded when I asked about the credit on my Fuel app. Here's to better times... Sir, with all due respect, I'm not worried about the app. I wrote about the continued rudeness of the staff. I mean it this time when I say that I will only patronize the Center City location from here on out. read more

Used to be my go to place. They must have a new cook or something because I've been disappointed the past 4 times I've ordered. Hoping it will get better each time and just keep getting let down... Was going to post this a few weeks ago but didn't in hopes it would get better . Again disappointed food is not good and not worth the money. My flatbread is soggy and gross (even though I asked for it well done like I always have to do in order for it to be cooked) I'm a healthy eater so there aren't really any other options in Philly and now I feel like there's none read more

I've been eating here for years now and it's not what it used to be. They changed the menu and it changed how the food was being digested also. The LAST two times my sister and I ate here, we had severe stomach aches and it all happened once they changed their menu. Their panini's aren't great as the used to be, the vinaigrette on the side salad sucks and their rice bowls seem to be over or undercooked most of the time and very little proportion. Overall, we will not be returning since the bigger thing here is the food makes us very sick. read more

I've ordered delivery from this location several times, and I've been disappointed every time. The quality of the dishes I order are atrocious, the food looks like it was thrown in to the travel container, and it tastes terrible! The smoothie is filled with many large chunks of ice so I feel like I chew every gulp, or my flatbread is totally burned! Incredibly disappointed, and I won't be ordering from here again. read more

The bowl was nothing like it looked on their menu. Every ingredient was pre-mixed and they should have just called it a rice bowl-because thats all i tasted. If i could give the avocado and bean bowl 0 stars i would had-however by default it gets 1. read more

Most disappointing acai bowl ever. It was watered down and full of chunks of ice with hardly any toppings.

Finally find a great restaurant with veg menu near my place at south Phila. My wife finally can enjoy of not preparing meals for me while she is tired of dish washing over weekend. read more

This place is amazing. The food is SO fresh and delicious. The portobello and eggplant panini is great. The mushroom is properly de-gilled and the eggplant is grilled perfectly every time. If you go between 3-5 p.m. appetizers are half price. SCORE! If you love fresh food and hate crowds of hipsters, go to Fuel, seriously. read more

I had the deconstructed guacamole salad with jalapeño citrus dressing. The arugula was fresh, the avocado chunks were good-sized and the dressing was superb. I would definitely order this again. I also ordered the Islander smoothie. Tasty but nothing too special. The staff was very friendly. I'll be coming back. read more

Green machine smoothie/juice is delicious. I should've ordered a larger size; I wanted more when it was gone. The black bean burger was average in comparison to other comparable burgers I've had elsewhere. It was good, I would order again. Lastly, the guacamole was good-average. I ordered via Postmates and this item was missing the grilled pita and veggies as advertised, so that was disappointing. I am visiting from out of town and if possible, would return just for their smoothies/juices. I do recommend this place. read more

Food was delicious, filling and didn't weigh you down. Got the avocado rice bowl and added tofu. The tofu was seasoned perfectly. Easy, fast, affordable and delicious! read more

UNSATISFIED would be an understatement with Fuel. This place use to be a cornerstone to my weekly eats. Not sure if the pandemic has much to do with it or what, as i noticed they have changed there delivery containers but to get the south philly panini that I know and Love and receive this is a COMPLETE JOKE. I feel completely RIPPED OFF and i even went as far as calling the restaurant and they told me it's because they chop the chicken now??? What difference does it make how you cut a piece of chicken, how does the amount change in that? LOOK AT THIS SANDWICH I MEAN REALLY???? Then after making that statement i was hung up on!!!! What a DISGRACE!! I'm not one to call or complain about anything for that matter but when I first bit into it I actually questioned if they gave me the wrong sandwich!!! This is TOTAL B.S.!!!! And to be hung up on after I was more than respectful???? Fuel will NEVER SEE ANOTHER DOLLAR FROM ME AGAIN!!! read more

Fuel - South Philly - Vegetarian Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This is the third time I've ordered a chicken sandwich and half of it is inedible rubber. It's not even like it was three weeks in a row. I'm talking 3 separate orders over the span of months. The probability of this being a fluke is pretty much impossible. The first two times I was upset but gave them the benefit of the doubt. This time I am furious because I paid for food and will end throwing it away and will still be hungry. The quality control at this restaurant is terrible and I will not be ordering again. It's a shame because the food used to be good and dependable but clearly not anymore. read more

I visited the new location in Center city the other day. Awesome service , great menu, friendly staff, and a very cool atmosphere. I love this place for healthy reasonably priced lunch in the city. I highly recommend . read more

Fuel is a good place for a lighter, healthier meal. However, I'm giving it only two stars for two reasons: 1. The calorie counts on the menu don't include bread, which seems wildly misleading. I think it's intellectually dishonest and makes me question the integrity of their calorie counts in general. 2. They don't have highchairs, which seems really out of touch with the explosion of young families living in the Passyunk Ave area. What kind of place doesn't have highchairs? They're rated as "family friendly" here on Yelp, and I would have thought that, too, had I never been there with a kid. But what kind of family friendly place doesn't have highchairs? read more

Awesome place for a healthy home cooked meal when you don't feel like doing it yourself. I have a falafel burger which was delicious but I got it on a wheat bun and I wished I had got it on the flat rest or something with a harder texture to contrast the soft felafel burger. My boyfriend got the Parmesan risotto and OMG he definitely picked better. So incredible. Definitely worth every penny. It's definitely a bit pricier here then I expected but overall I was happy with what I got for it. And do yourself a favor and order the creme brûlée cheesecake for desert! read more

Go to for sandwiches and salads on the avenue- they post the calorie count for everything and have plenty of healthy protein filled options!

Always enjoy their sandwiches and salads! Today we ordered two sandwiches and a smoothie (the hulk). When our order was delivered part of it was missing. I called the restaurant and within 30 mins they sent us a new sandwich and a piece of their flourless cake- free of charge! Excellent customer service! read more

I've never actually been to this Fuel but I order delivery from here and it's always very delicious. My 2 favorites are the chicken teriyaki rice bowl and the Delicious Kale Salad. The kale salad is surprisingly delicious, as advertised. The only disappointing thing was when I added shrimp to the kale salad I only got 3 pieces of shrimp for $3. However, the shrimp is amazing. But you get A LOT more chicken for $3. read more

This place is decent, not the worst but definitely not the best. Got the Kale Caesar w/ chicken. It was decent, but $14 is ridiculous. Could of gotten a Sweetgreen salad for $10 and much better quality. read more

Fuel is great. I think it's one of the only places to get protein shakes in the neighborhood, but lucky for me I live around the corner. I perform in a monthly sketch comedy show at Adobe Cafe, which is right next door, so this is how I stumbled upon Fuel. The first thing I noticed was the music playing (it plays outside on the street)- all remixes of Gaga, Adam Lambert, Katy Perry, Rihanna, etc. I thought I was upstairs at Tavern on Camac for a second! The gayborhood comes to Passyunk. loves it. Their food is good. Large sandwiches, and they have all of the calories printed out. The protein shakes are awesome. Service is not excellent, but that's fine with me because I usually get the food to go. read more

Love this place. The food could not be fresher. Rocco is a real talent. The soups are remarkable, and the pumpkin chessecake is one of the best desserts I have ever had. The staff is also one of the friendliest and kindest in Philadelphia. No one could wrong here. read more

My fiance and I decided that we were tired of eating all of the fatty greasy stuff that was available for delivery around us, and then I remembered that there was this new place Fuel less than a block away which featured meals that are all under 500 calories. As we both agreed that we should eat healthier we decided to give it a try. the place itself is sparsely decorated and they had little flat screen TVs on the wall playing the music videos of the music that was playing in the restaurant, mid you too loud. the menu is surprising, I was thinking that if it is under 500 calories how could they have that many choices, but they do. Starters, salads, paninis or wraps, plus they have daily specials and desserts. We opted for the soy chicken lettuce wraps, the tuna and arugula salad, and the Thai chicken wrap. The food was very good and fresh. I was surprised that it was so good and still under 500 calories. I would give fuel 5 stars but there are two reasons why I can't. 1) The prices. Our soy chicken wraps were $7.95 for three wraps. Now I know they need to keep it under 500 calories but I think maybe taking off a dollar or two would help. Still it was very tasty. 2) The ambiance in the restaurant itself. The owner and chef Rocco Cima who is also a DJ at Q102 wants the place to have an LA type vibe, that's fine, but for me the place did not seem that inviting, and the music was a little too loud. On the good side: The food was very good Chef Rocco has a very good idea and I hope it takes off The staff that we met, including Chef Rocco were very friendly. So if you are looking for a good low calorie meal served up fast and good check out Fuel, just be prepared to pay a little more for some of the items then you would want to spend. Other than that this place is great. read more

Wow, finally a place to get healthy tasty meals! My husband and I have been trying to get in shape and are so excited about a place with meals for under 500 calories. This is not just healthy food, it's incredibly delicious food! You can taste the fresh ingredients in each bite. This has replaced our Friday night pizza. I think we have tried everything on the menu. Who would have thought of putting fresh lemon cream cheese in a grilled cheese, so tasty! There is a tasty surprise in each dish! Also there are specials each day based on the freshest finds at the market so be sure to ask. I recently had the acorn squash and cabbage soup special and it was unbelievable! The staff is extremely nice and always greet you with a smile. The place itself is upbeat and really livens up Passyunk Ave.! If you want to know the calories on a special just ask. And don't forget to save room for dessert! I recently purchased a whole pumpkin cheesecake for my Thanksgiving trip and everyone loved it! And if your out you can also stop in for a great cup of coffee or a fresh smoothie! Chef Rocco is awesome! read more

Honestly used to absolutely love their paninis and soups, but lately I have noticed their product quality has went down immensely along with their portion size. Not sure if it it because they are now on groupon? Used to recommend to others, not so much anymore. Used to be 5 stars when they first opened, now about a 3. read more

I am a 53 year old that lives in South Philly. I eat at Fuel whenever I get over to Passyunk. Today I wanted a healthy option and called Fuel for a delivery as I am home bound for a bit. The young lady answering the phone was rude and short and because I only wanted a ceasar salad with grilled chicken she told me you have to order more if you want this delivered, orders have to be over ten dollars. I understand the rule as gas is so friggin expensive. I've ordered this before and I am almost positive it was Nine something... I almost said just charge me the ten bucks but why bother, she was rude and had an attitude. Oh well, I tried to give you business. You failed on your customer service because your employee was a B*#ch! Good luck in your efforts, maybe you should spot call your locations and mystery shop your employees. Im just saying~ read more

Best quick healthy food in town. The south Philly wrap is delicious and they are always incredibly friendly.

Update: Tried again. It seems Fuel Actually is consistent - consistently mediocre. This time my chicken was pounded beyond recognition and burnt to a crisp. Thank God the Gorgonzola cheese was delicious as it saved the sandwich. This time my beloved pumpkin cheesecake left the worst taste in my mouth. As in freezer burn. It clearly had that nasty stinky fridge/freezer taste to it. PLEASE get your stuff together guys!!!! I want to love Fuel and I love what they are trying to do, healthy food that tastes great. My only issue with Fuel is consistency. I have never eaten in, only ever takeout. I generally get a panini on wheat bread, often the TBM pesto. I almost always order the Pumpkin cheesecake because its generally delicious. HOWEVER - the take out can range from fantastic to "did I REALLY just spend $20 for THIS?!?" I can create healthy delicious food at home, so if I'm going to spend $20 or more to "splurge" on take out, I expect it to be great every time. You don't get that here unfortunately. It disappoints me and leaves me looking for somewhere else to spend my splurge cash. read more
