The food is supplied by the adjoining restaurant Booker's Restaurant and Bar. With that you should have a great dining experience. The Bayou Jazz Lounge is open Wednesday-Sun 5-11pm. I will check back in after a live band experience. I can't wait as a music lover. The sister restaurant Booker's always have great live entertainment so my expectations are high. Keep in mind this is a busy are in West Philadelphia so parking is at a premium but free!

100% the worst service I have ever received at a restaurant. I went on a night where it was…read morebasically completely empty except for a party which was already fed. I go to order my food and they are out of ALL the soups. I ended up ordering something else and then they tell me that another item is not available 20 minutes after my original order. After waiting 40 min I ask about my food only to tell me that ANOTHER item was not available. I was originally planning on eating in but at this point I decided to take my food to go. The food was alright but definitely going to be going to any other African restaurant because the experience was just awful.

It's near a major street in Philadelphia not too far from the Mann music center and Center city Philadelphia. Inside you'll find a very large space with TVs playing videos, music and sports not blaring but loud enough to enjoy, but allowing you to hear your conversation. This place is operated by entire group from GenZ and they do an excellent job. Everyone is attentive and polite with a little edge of I'm nice as long as you're nice. LOL The food service is slow, but it is well worth the wait. The breakfast menu is delicious. The chicken and waffles and the omelette order as listed on the menu some of the best food I've had in a while!! I must say that the grits are superb. I cannot eat the shrimp but when I took it home to go to a family member, they were impressed and couldn't stop raving about it. Would I go again? Absolutely and I have been several times since my original visit.

Two fully operational restrooms for men and women. The place has an old school vibe to it--not all newly renovated or designed but the antique aspect to it made it fee so much more intimate or home-like. Price was pretty decent too! We had the space for approximately 7+ hours and the building manager Mr. Ernie was very pleasant. I would definitely recommend this place for various functions. Pros: PRICE, location, ample parking, full kitchen and two restrooms. Cons: the place was only made available to view on Tuesdays after 6:30 but that's no deal breaker

Not…read moreall that big inside, but a really friendly vibe inside, very small town like with some historic charm with all the decorations. There's a strange-looking critter up top along with just random stuff riddled around the bar, and a bunch of popular beers on tap. All the staff were really friendly (shout out to Kevin!), and they were on top of keeping drinks filled. I also ordered some food - a double smash burger and some fries. Both were really tasty - that burger was really juicy! Great fixings on that burger, but it's a bit on the small side, so if hungry, probably a good idea to order the extra patty. Fries were really good too. They take cash or card, and they hold on to your card in a cup near the register until you close out - not what I've usually seen, but makes sense, I suppose. I'd return for another hangout with the guys! Kevin, come toss some discs with us!

While a change in ownership occurred recently, the new team has wisely kept the "time capsule" vibe intact--think dark wood, dim lighting, and a total lack of pretension. The kitchen doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, and that's exactly why people love it. The Burgers: Often cited as some of the best in the area, these are classic, juicy bar burgers. They recently introduced a "smash burger" style that has been winning over even the most stubborn regulars. The Cheesesteaks: You won't find any touristy gimmicks here. These are authentic, local-style cheesesteaks--perfectly chopped meat, plenty of cheese, and served on a roll that actually holds up to the grease. This is a Philly sports bar to its core. The walls are adorned with years of sports memorabilia, and when the Eagles are playing, the atmosphere is electric. It's the neighborhood's unofficial living room for Sunday games. You'll find multi-generational fans shouting at the TVs, cold domestic drafts in hand, and a level of camaraderie that you only get in a place that's been around for 90+ years.
