    Woo hoo this is officially the third Nudy's I've visited. I really like this one because the parking is good, the inside is pretty and comfortable and the food and service is up to par with all the Nudy's. Today I had The grilled shrimp salad which was a nice selection of grilled shrimp atop greens with some avocado, slivered almonds and mandarin slices. It was advertised as having a "fan" of avocados. I didn't get that many avocados. There were 4 thins slices spread across the plate. That disappointed me a bit because for the price I was expecting at least half an avocado. And i chose this salad over others because of its description. Regardless, I did enjoy this entree. My dining partner had The farmers omelette and he enjoyed it. The coffee was strong and good. Service was very attentive.

    -Indoor dining Review- Restaurant: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Parking: Free Parking Lot Came here twice now for breakfast/brunch, both visits were hit or miss in terms of food. Service however has been consistent. It gets busy, especially on weekends. So expect to wait outside or in your car for 10-15 minutes. -Restaurant- Typical diner restaurant vibe, tables and chairs wobble a little here and there, chairs are somewhat uncomfortable, some tables are sticky (Not sure if they were just way too busy the days we went and couldn't wipe them down properly or not. Some menus has seen better days. With that being said, rest of the restaurant seems clean and somewhat maintained. -Service- Staffs are very accommodating and friendly. -Food- Unfortunately I've lost some of the food pictures we took. But the items we ordered were (Here's where the hit or miss came in) --Farmer's Omelets (Not too good, a little blend) --Cream Chipped Beef (Delicious) --Breakfast Burrito (Just OK) --Huevos Rancheros (Delicious) --Belgian Waffles with Banana Walnut (Amazing!!!!) Overall a good restaurant if you are craving certain breakfast items, but not the best. Price is pretty decent, (not sure now with all the inflation)

    Omelette topped with salsa and a side of home fries

    The Belgian waffle with banana walnut was delicioussssss!!!! Ordered it with a side of two scrambled eggs and sausages. The sausages were HUGE! My husband got the omelet with salsa on top.. pretty delicious! Coffee was alright. Service was amazing!

    I think this bacon had to have been made days ago.

    Ordered take out. It was ready quickly. French toast was good. The fruit on top was poor quality. And the bacon had to have been leftover from the weekend. Dried out and old.

    My wife had the French toast which she said was absolutely perfect. I had the patty melt which was to die for. Cheese, meat, coleslaw and sauce perfectly blended together. And did I mention the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend this place.

    This is a great old school tavern in the very heart of Chadds Ford. The ambiance is cozy, has a…read morevery historic feeling and always very clean. This homey tavern offers excellent service and the food overall is consistently very good. They have fresh buck-a-shuck oysters and clams at happy hour and all day Thursdays. The baked clams are simply magnificent! Their chicken wings are large and well spiced with a nice glaze. Their burger is a classic style tavern burger - perfectly cooked and juicy. The French fries are pretty darn good too! The wild striped bass entree is excellent as well. Fresh striper that is flaky, delicate - typically this is one of my go-tos. The variety of desserts are very good and big enough to be shared. Enjoy!

    Amazing hidden gem! Great food, decent prices, amazing service even on a super busy Saturday night…read more There was a live band so the restaurant was packed to the brim. Valet or self park. There were near 100 cars in the lot and still space to park somehow! The place was packed when we got there but we were seated in a minute! And in that time we were told by other staff that they'd be there shortly. Once seated, our server came by a few times in the 5 minutes we spent deciding on what to get haha and plenty while we were dining. I say this because it's not often you see such a packed restaurant feel like such an efficiently well oiled machine. We were there to see the band and some friends so we just got the pulled pork truffle fries, which, mind you, were some of the best fried we've had anywhere! What a pleasant surprise, as we were just grabbing a quick bite to share before having to head off. The ambiance was great, which I'd wager to be the case even without the music seeing the elegance of the decor and whatnot. The whole place was clean, not an issue in sight. Props to all the staff and management at the Chadds Ford Tavern!

We finally asked our waitress and she was surprised that we didn't get the "dinner menu". Yeah, we were surprised to find out there was more than just sandwiches for dinner. She apologized that the person who seated us just didn't give us the dinner menus even though it was just about 7pm! So she said if we wanted, they would let us order from the dinner menu and give our original food to someone else. Honestly, by that time, we were sitting there for more than 45 minutes and we were starving, so we just told her we'd take our sandwiches. I have to say she was extremely apologetic about it, and was genuine. We appreciate that, but it's still unlikely we'll return.

We couldn't limit our picks and started with the Grilled Kennett Square mushrooms, Camembert with carrot caramel foam, and the chilled pea soup with mint. We also ordered the Nashville hot catfish and curry soft shell crab. The caramel foam was delicious and paired perfectly with the cheese and bread. The pea soup was refreshing and harmonized well. The mushrooms were simply delightful. The catfish was cooked extremely well, with the crust (with a corn meal crust?) remaining crunchy and the fish juicy, with the seasonings on point and spicy. The curry soft shelled crab was the winner among many winning choices and was perfect. We couldn't stop raving about it. We enjoyed it so much, we overindulged and ordered the lamb. The meat was exceptionally soft, even for rack of lamb. Unable to resist the dessert menu, we finished with the rhubarb sorbet with basil water and granola. My wife is not a fan of rhubarb or basil, but also loved the dessert and its balance and uniqueness. The service was excellent and attentive, and the restaurant is very cute and cozy. My wife has worked in restaurants for years and we were both thoroughly impressed by the execution and care for all the items we ordered. It's one thing to have a creative and unique menu, it's another thing entirely to have that level of execution for it. Thank you!

The principle does not sit well with us. The service, unfortunately, was not what I expect. He did get tables all at once, which I understand, but we felt like our table of 'only' two was a burden. I really do not like leaving a restaurant feeling like that. All in all, the food is always amazing from a taste perspective. The bar experience for a couple cocktails is also always great. They really need to work on the service aspect in the restaurant. Customers should never feel like a burden. We do love the ambiance in general and the quality of food has not disappointed.

Dinner was only a few hours off, but a bit too soon for a full lunch. However, the menu got the best of us and we ended up ordering a bunch of little things which ended up being far too much, but definitely in a good way. The space is quirky with a wonderful neo-mod design that is very eye catching and makes great use of the old diner aesthetic of the previous space, while improving upon it a hundredfold by making it much classier but not over the top. It does feel decidedly like a 1960's Italian locale out of a Roger Moore or Sean Connery era Bond film; to great effect. Another thing I loved about the design is that it feels compact but not small. I dislike huge restaurants, and love the family owned vibe, and this space occupies the very nice Goldilocks zone between being 'just right'. The food was good and I will get to that, but what really made our experience was our outstanding, amazing, dare I say...... legendary server, Alice. She was just flat out hands down an all around pro with a great attitude, a kind smile, and a wonderful personality who knew exactly how to keep a table like ours happy, engaged, and ready to come back again. This is something that I feel has been missing in so many places since Covid occurred, and encountering someone as great as Alice just really made the whole time there a notch above. Finally getting to the food, which was obviously delicious, there was nothing that was absolutely mind blowing, but all of it was very unique and extremely well prepared and flavorful. I did like that not everything was tomato-centric on the menu and there was a vast variety of different dishes that match the uniqueness of the space. The highlight for me was the carrot soup, not an every day item, that was nice and heavy with cumin. Brilliant flavors but not too forward, which followed our caprese dip that was an outstanding take on a dish that everyone loves, but is overdone at this point. The bread they are serving here is insanely good; either lightly toasted or grilled quickly on a flat grill, I am not sure, but slathered with high quality olive oil and it's perfectly soft, crispy, crusty, and chewy all at the same time. Testa Rossa is definitely worth checking out, and we only went for a few small plates with the intention of it being a snack. Apparently the family has more than one location, although I am not sure where the others are. If you are near Glen Mills, it is definitely worth the trip to stop in here and give them a try. Oh, and don't forget to pair your food with the super cool espresso martini tower, because you get to choose the flavors, but I'm still sticking with classic as my favorite!
