    french toast and eggs
    Gabrielle L.

    Small and cute little breakfast place. Super cute and everything was tasty! Everyone was very nice that worked there.

    This restaurant is very deceiving in a good way. It's a very small space with barely any seating but with a pleasant vibe. The staff were friendly enough. We were seated immediately and literally had to squeeze into our table (no leg or elbow room). They added a chair to the end of the table to accommodate our party of 5. We were debating whether or not we had made a good choice until our food came out (it was a longer wait than expected). The portions are very generous (each plate could easily serve two people) and beautifully decorated. We all enjoyed every bite of food on our plates. Everything was freshly made and delicious. We were happy we stuck around and waited. So if you have time, don't mind small spaces and want some delicious food, I recommend you stop by.

    The plan this week was to go to breakfast/brunch two different days, and I am so happy that we happened to start that adventure with a trip to Izzy's 33. The choice to go here was made due to the fact we have an engagement in South Philly. However, Jen simply pulled up a list of places in the area and picked here. After looking at the menu though, we knew we had likely locked in on a perfect place. Not only is the menu extremely extensive, but it also has an almost unending plethora of Mexican and Central American inspired brunch choices that had me trying to make selections two nights before we were even going to go. After stopping nearby at the place we needed to attend first, we leisurely made our way to the 1700 block of ninth street, and were amazed to find parking right in front. From years of working in the area and dealing with parking and driving here, finding a space with absolutely zero issue right off the bat was already a recipe for success and obviously just a sign of the boon to come. The little cafe is tucked away into what appears to at one point, likely many years ago, to have been a classic center row home. It's not an end property, and despite the space inside being quite roomy for what it is, it's a narrow corridor with the seating up front, prep and serving area in the center, and kitchen in the rear. Very cute, and everything inside has this older wooden feel to it, as if plucked from an old bookstore. We only had the opportunity to converse with one staff member, our server; she was not only wonderful, upbeat, and friendly, but also helpful, guiding us to a nearby location to get banana leaves for tamales I planned to make later in the week. That's just the beginning because I haven't even gotten to the food. This was one of the best breakfasts I have had in a very long time. The Huevos Enmolados was so outstanding, not only did I finish the perfectly build stack of tostadas with all the ingredients stacked deliciously on top, but also asked for a small bowl of tortilla chips to scoop up the remaining mole that had become its own unique sauce amalgamation with the runny eggs and cheese and other flavors. I cannot overstate how wonderful this was. If I could have physically stomached a second meal, I would have ordered a complete second portion and eaten that too. Jen's carnitas skillet was also outstanding, although I only had a taste. We also had a side of scrapple which was delivered perfectly crisp and molten inside, steaming hot like forbidden meat-lava. Even the local classics are done perfectly here. Not only is Izzy's 33 worth visiting if you live in the city, if you are in the area at all, this place warrants a trip for breakfast or brunch. It is a premiere experience at a reasonable price especially for the city. I am sure there may be places that have a different selection, or may be preferable to some people, but for everything they offer, I don't think they can be beat; at least not easily. Do yourself a favor and get in here today and enjoy some of their unique offerings. I can guarantee that you'll enjoy.

    Bandeja Mexicana
    Abby S.

    This was a totally unexpected surprise and I'm so happy we finally made our way to Izzy's! We have talked about coming here for months and I just kept cancelling at the last second to go somewhere I knew I liked, but this was a well worth trip! We came for Sunday breakfast and went with the Bandeja Mexicana and the huevos mexicana, both were delicious! I was sad when we got there that the huevos mexicana were no longer on the menu, but was so thankful that they made them for me! The menu does update every so often and check the specials on the wall out, we didn't notice them till after we ordered. The service was timely. The ambiance is a little odd with the early 2000's top hits playing and there is not much decor inside, but the food was well-worth the trip! I look forward to returning again soon!

    Crème brule over French Toast
    Alessandra C.

    This place is super cute, and the food is excellent! Must try would have to be one of their loaded French toasts. It might look heavy, but it's actually light and filled with flavor! The presentation of the food is also really nice!

    We visited our son recently in Philly where we always enjoy the restaurant scene. He has been raving about this new breakfast spot a short walk from his apartment so we made sure to pay a visit. He did not over sell it! All four of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. They have two "sections" to the menu, sweet and savory. I went for the latter and being a huge Mexican food fan, that's what I did pictured below. One of the single best breakfast items ever!

    TRES LECHES iced coffee
    Suf L.

    We have discovered their tres leches iced coffee, which is basically a caffeinated milkshake (in a good way). Additionally, we've become fatties and order 2 savory meals to split and also something sweet. All this for like $35 a person, which for a brunch in the city, isn't bad! Be prepared to wait a little if you have a party any bigger than 2, but it's worth it. I also just learned they have a private event space for up to 25 people!

    Breakfast Burger
    Chris L.

    Ordered on DoorDash. Packaging was not the best - paper containers did not have option for tight seal which meant some of French toast contents leaked in the bag/on other container. Food was yummy and would love to go back in-person.

    Olga K.

    What a hidden gem! I wish I discovered this place sooner! Amazing"homemade" food, clean space, and very friendly service. Menu is very rich of anything you could possibly want. Kids menu too. What a great spot! I cannot wait to come back!

    Carmel iced coffee
    Pete L.

    This place has to be one of the best and underrated breakfast spots in philly. The iced coffees taste better than your local starbucks. You can come here for traditional american foods as well as mexican breakfast. Both are pretty damn good. It hasnt gotten that busy on weekends yet but I'm pretty sure word will get out and there will be a line at brunch.

    Fresas Con Crema

    If u like French toast this is the place to go! The brioche bread they use is everything! It's BYOB so my friends and I brought a bottle of Prosecco. The inside dining is limited and small but other than that this place is a gem

    I was looking to try a different restaurant for breakfast and was intrigued by Izzy's 33 menu. I arrived and was seated immediately. This location is small but super cute. I ordered coffee and HUEVOS A LA MEXICANA (Scrambled eggs with Sautéed onions, jalapenos and tomato served with pinto beans, queso fresco tortilla chips and avocado). So good! I will definitely be back and I want to try something from the crepe menu! I knew I would love Izzy's because patrons waited outside for seats to become available.

    This small BYOB restaurant is near the corner of 9 and Morris. My husband and I got here around noon and it was crowded. The dining room is small but not too overcrowded. They put cushions to sit people by the window. I like the red wall with gold accent on the ceiling trim and bathroom door because it gives a fancy look. The restaurant is nicely decorated with a small pot of plant on each table. We were served right away. On the menu they make crepes after 4 PM. There's a special menu on the blackboard. The menu has regular breakfast items and also some Mexican dishes such as chilaquiles and enchilada My husband ordered breakfast burger, which I never encountered before. It had burger patty with hash brown, egg, and bacon. He enjoyed it very much. He selected a bowl of fruit as side. The fruit bowl is bigger than those that are usually served in diners. Meanwhile, I ordered special item: crab meat omelette. My waitress asked what side I would like. The choices are salad, fruit, or home fries. I opted for the salad. When I got the food, it came with 2 slices of toasted white bread. I wished they offered wheat. They were generous with the size of the salad and the amount of crab meat. Unfortunately, my omelette was very salty. I understand that crab meat is salty but I felt like it was brined in salt. It's very rare to find me not finishing my food. This time I couldn't finish it because I could feel my blood pressure went up because how salty it was. They accept card payment but it is cheaper to pay with cash. I might give this place another try maybe the Mexican dish

    cute neighbors spot with great mexican food!…read more my friend and i made a reservation for 8p on cinco de mayo -- we did not realize it was cinco de mayo until we were on our way over to the restaurant, and it was crazy packed. even with a reservation, we had to wait for a table. we were seated outside initially, despite our reservation for an inside table. we did request to move inside since it was cold and windy outside, and our waiter jose told us it would take 20 more minutes. we were at the restaurant for over an hour by the time we were finally seated inside. once inside, our orders were quickly taken, and the food came out quickly. at that point, we were starving -- coming here on cinco de mayo was a mistake. the food here is excellent. the tacos al pastor were some of the best tacos i've had. the pork was so juicy and flavorful. the drinks (horchata & jamaica) were also packed with flavor and tasted incredibly authentic. the elote was delicious as well, and i enjoyed how much pulpo/octopus was on the menu. there were so many other things i wanted to try! our waiter jose was also very sweet. he apologized for the delay in getting seated, and you could tell they were working really hard to get through the rush. i would not come back on cinco de mayo, but i would definitely recommend this spot for a casual dinner.

It's pretty deep in South Philly, definitely off the beaten path. For as much press as it's been getting recently, it wasn't too busy (it was a week night) in hte restaurant. There is a decent bit of seating without feeling crammed, and the ambience is on theme with the cuisine. They are BYOB, so I brought a mocktail for us to enjoy with our meals. Service was solid - our server gave us good advice on the menu. We started off with the guac, which was delightful. I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of charred serranos alongside the avos, and the homemade chips were the perfect vehicle for the dip. We split the spicy Camohtli, which wasn't too spicy and with perfectly crispy potatoes. The seasoning fit the dish nicely. I'm not an overall potato lover, but this was a unexpected tasty dish. We lastly split a special for the night, tacos with squash, corn, and pomegranate seeds. I was disappointed in the number of vegetarian tacos, but I was glad that this one was on special. I liked all the ingredients separately, and together on the taco, they went together well enough, but something was missing. Perhaps another spice or sauce? That would have taken this dish over the top! Prices at El Mictlan were quite reasonable, and the BYOB nature certainly helps a lot too. I was overall pleased with my meal there, but I would be intrigued to try other menu options (I am not vegetarian, so would like to try other taco offerings) to understand all the recent hype!

The outside reminded me of something I'd see in LA. The restaurant very much has retro diner vibes. The inside is very colorful, and there is a beaded entrance that leads to the bathroom. The menu, itself, was a bit limited. We got there around brunch but it was a bit later in the day, so I wasn't necessarily in the mood for breakfast items. I opted to get the General Tso wings with the sauce on the side and the chorizo and shrimp egg roll while my friend opted for the squid salad with wings, too. We both ordered a cocktail. I had the pomegranate spiked lemonade with tequila and my friend had the spiced agua Fresca with whiskey. My drink was definitely on the sweeter side, while hers was more of a smooth drink. The food came out pretty quickly. They first brought out the salad which was massive! We shared that for a bit. It was pretty good, although it seemed to be scant on dressing. Then the wings came out. They seemed to be air fried, not too greasy, and very crisp. The sauce was savory and tangy. Lastly, were the egg rolls. They were unlike any egg rolls I've seen before, but were not short on taste. The shrimp and sausage were plentiful and it was tasty. To be honest, half of it filled me up. Overall, I see this more as an appetizer type of place. Not a place I'd go for a more filling entree. The vibe is nice, and definitely a cool place to visit. My friend mentioned they do a lot of community events which I love.

    Last night I was in the Lehigh Valley and decided to dine at La Maya restaurant in Hellertown, PA…read more I was intrigued by reviews citing its tasty modern Mexican cuisine and excellent cocktails. La Maya did not disappoint! The ambience is dimly lit, and perfect for a romantic dinner. On the cocktails side, I tried "Señor Sal" - a dirty martini / Vesper riff featuring their proprietary gin and vodka, dry vermouth, pickled jalapeño, olive brine, and lemon infused olive oil. It was a visually attractive, delicious, and sturdy cocktail. Just what the doctor ordered! Later I tried the house margarita. It was balanced and refreshing. There are options to add flavorings to the house margarita spec for +$2 (e.g., Matcha Coconut, Spicy, Guava Mint, Caramelized Pineapple). My dinner companion tried the caramelized pineapple and loved it. On the culinary side, the guacamole was fresh and flavorful. For an entree, I selected the Carne Nortena - a tequila-marinated ribeye with sauteed scallions, shisito peppers. The steak was cooked perfectly to temperature (medium-rare) and amazingly juicy. The roasted sweet potato wedges (Camote) were also outstanding. Don't forget dessert - the coconut flan was to die for! Service - I believe our server's name was Alex, was on-point. He was knowledgeable about both the food and beverages, and did not rush us. Thank you La Maya for a great evening. I will definitely return.
