    Plain Panzerotti - larger than I was expecting!
    Mia M.

    A cute little spot with good food and super kind staff! Came here for a bite around 1:30 on Sunday, and there was only one other group there. I had a plain panzerotti and a walnut sticky bun, which was a special for the day. The panzerotti was DELISH, and more filling than I expected considering the price and size. I'd skip the walnut sticky bun though - at $7 I thought it was fine but not amazing, and Pops Bun Shop a few blocks away has much better and cheaper sticky buns. Overall, I wouldn't make a special trip down to South Philly again just to come here, but I wouldn't absolutely stop by if I had other reasons to be in the area.

    Overflowing with people on a saturday morning, and I can see why. The food is a great price for a great size and quality. My friends and I all got our egg sandwhiches to go after seeing how big they were. I ate about half before having to save the rest for later.

    The food and coffee at Paffuto were delicious! We ordered the egg, cheese, and potato panzerotti, an egg and cheese kaiser roll sandwich, a maritozzo, and two drip coffees. I especially loved how lightly sweetened and fluffy the cream in the maritozzo is. The sit down area can feel a bit tight if you're with a larger group or children during peak hours, but the two of us were able to find a seat easily after ordering as the flow of tables moves relatively well.

    Went here for the first time after all my friends raving about this spot. It's in south Philly and has some incredible Italian food and sweet treats like maritozzi and panzorotti. Small little spot with indoor and outdoor dining, but the ambiance isn't the star- the food is. I tried some of their specials for the Italian market festival and it blew me away. I had essentially a meatball parm pizza sandwich. It was a light, airy and bubbly pizza crust filled with melty cheese, freshly crushed tomato sauce with some of the best meatballs I've ever had. You fold it like you would a pizza slice and eat it like a sandwich. So. Damn. Good. So simple but the high quality ingredients really shined through. I also have never had meatballs in public that have ever come close to my Italian grandmothers recipe- but these were very very close which speaks volumes to me. Service was incredible as well. I will be back for those desserts for sure. I would have gotten them, but cocco's gelato had a pop up there today so grabbed that instead! (Also my fav gelato in the city!)

    Had a great stop in at Paffuto. We were too late for any pastries but the sandwiches did not disappoint! We shared a vodka chicken jawn that had some beautiful burrata on top and also tasted their broccoli Caesar - incredible, and crispy potatoes, also incredible. Cute little shop, not a ton of tables but some nice local goods also available! Counter service with a smile. Can't wait to come back and try the beef and cheese and Italian sandos

    Caesar chicken cutlet

    1 word : insane. Everything is made with love. This is a secret gem in Philly. Service is great. I always dream about the chicken cutlet. I will come back but wish they had later hours for lunch. If you have the chance don't miss out!

    1/2 of the chicken cutlets sandwich. Superburb.
    Bob W.

    We had three things. The chicken cutlet was just out of this world. We had a pepperoni panzerotti. A mini version of a calzone, but fried crazy good. For dessert, we shared a slice of heaven, the Marritozzi. A light airy pastry with an airy maybe pistachio whipped cream? Straight out of Rome. Very authentic Italian treats the last two. Sam at the register is just a great guy as well, friends with everybody.

    I've been dying to try this newer spot and it didn't disappoint. I got the egg and cheese with the hot sauce and it was so perfect. I can't wait to come back to try something for lunch and their sweets! Will definitely be back. Cute space to hang and eat as well!

    Egg and cheese panzerotti
    Abby S.

    I have been super intrigued to try this place since it opened and it did not quite meet expectations. It's a cute place with a small exterior and probably about 15-20 seats and a few seats in the window. Service was efficient, but menu was very limited. We tried one of the egg and cheese panzerottis. It was good, but I don't think I'd come back here unless I was in the neighborhood.

    I had been dying to try the panzerotti - tried once and they were sold out and tried another time they were doing a special menu only so make sure to get there early and also check their IG to see if they have any special menus. But today I went at 9 am on a Saturday and finally got the egg and cheese panzerotti and it was So worth it! It was hot, delicious and cheesy. And with hot sauce, it was actual perfection! There were a few tables inside and seats by the window, but it was filling up fast by the time we left around 9:30 am. Very cute. And the employees were also really kind and helpful. I got a maritozzi pastry to go and it was also delicious.

    What a great addition to South Philly! I stopped in on a Saturday morning to try an Egg and Cheese Panzerotti (scrambled eggs, cooper sharp, and mozzarella). I don't know how they get it so crispy on the outside but so airy and pillowy on the inside. It's pure magic. I can't wait to come back and try some other menu items!

    I'm too late in checking out this incredible spot! Everything was delicious especially the egg and cheese panzerotti and bombolini. The owner mentioned that they were trying to make the place look like an Italian grandma's house. I certainly felt that with its cozy ambiance! The staff was friendly and attentive. Going back to this again and again, for sure!

    Paffuto is the Italian breakfast joint serving it up! Located in the Italian Market at S 8th St and Kimball St. Open for breakfast and lunch on Wednesday-Sunday. Friendly service! Paffuto's menu includes a wide selection of sandwiches, salads, crispy potatoes, soups, panzerotti, and some nice pastries. PANZEROTTI was crispy, hot and hittin all the right tastebuds! An order of extra, red marinara was perfect. MUSHROOM PESTO is served on a long seeded semolina topped with pesto, Mozz, oyster mushrooms, & roasted red peppers.

    Panzarotti - so good!

We have eaten at the high tops, in the main dining room, and at the tables extending into The Harper lobby, and each area feels like part of the same unified experience. The colors and lighting inside are especially warm and inviting, giving the room a glow that feels cozy and uplifting, especially during a Philadelphia winter. Food remains at the center of the experience, and my order is always the Jerusalem bagel with egg and cheese. On the rare occasions when turkey bacon appears, I add it as a welcome delicacy and a little extra sustenance, though the bagel is already delicious on its own. The cinnamon sugar kubaneh, the chocolate chip cookie, and the Bloody Mary are excellent. K'Far has also expanded its selection of bowls and salads since we ate here most regularly, and they look consistent with the quality of everything else. These days, a full breakfast here does not always fit within our budget, but I still make a point of stopping in for OX Coffee, which is delicious and, happily, roasted in Philadelphia. The Yemenite latte is another distinctive pleasure, aromatic and satisfying without feeling like a novelty created merely for attention. The staff is consistently charming, welcoming, and composed, and the team's continuity and energy suggest that people genuinely enjoy working here. When our budget allows, I will absolutely return to eat. Perhaps the clearest expression of K'Far's brilliance arrives in one memory from a cold, radiantly sunny Saturday, when "Inspector Norse" by the Norwegian producer Todd Terje comes through the speakers as the restaurant buzzes around us. The track, the worldly crowd, and the aroma from the kitchen create the elusive feeling Steve Cook and Mike Solomonov understand so well: people go out to eat because they want to feel seen and be briefly transported into a more vivid version of life. I already love K'Far and The Hoxton as separate brands, so seeing them come together at The Hoxton in Williamsburg feels like an unusually natural and exciting partnership. Creating this kind of social magnetism inside a bakery and café is a subtle achievement, and Philadelphia is richer for having a place with this much flavor, warmth, and personality.

Our server Rachel was lovely and gave us a rundown of their specials and the menu's top hits. Our drink selections ranged from as boring as a Diet Coke to as fun as a seasonal lemonade. We were all content with our choices, though we puttered around making suggestions from their large drink menu. I typically go for a savory breakfast, but the stuffed brioche French toast was speaking to me. I can never turn down banana! The rest of our table ordered avocado toast (x2) and fried eggs with bacon. Everyone was really happy with their choices and an added bonus was that our food came out quickly. I insisted everyone at our table try a bite of my massive stuffed brioche French toast and the consensus was that it was ridiculously good. Though this spot is tiny, it is not to be missed.

Luckily, we found street parking right next to the restaurant, which was a nice surprise. When we arrived, the wait for a table of three was about 45 minutes. That's somewhat expected for a popular brunch spot on a weekend. Once seated, the service was prompt. Our waiter stopped by quickly with waters and took good care of us throughout the meal. I ordered the House Angus Burger with sweet potato fries. It was solid, flavorful, and definitely filling. My friend got the Bella Vista Omelet with home fries, and we both agreed that while the food was good, it felt like standard brunch fare rather than anything particularly memorable. Based on the long wait and the hype surrounding Sabrina's, I think we were expecting the food to really stand out. In my opinion, the dishes we tried were comparable to what you'd find at a quality chain brunch spot like First Watch. That's not necessarily a bad thing, the food was satisfying, but it didn't quite justify the lengthy wait. That said, the menu has plenty of more unique and creative options that we didn't try. I'd be open to coming back and ordering one of those specialty dishes next time. Overall, I left satisfied with the meal and service.

There's a grand staircase that walks down into an even bigger and more open area. Up first, was a $9 hot chocolate and a $23 Bluecoat (Dirty Martini with blue cheese olives). The martini was perfect, exactly how I like it with tiny slivers of ice shards. Second, I had a $30 Gold Espresso Martini with vodka. It was also perfect. Probably the prettiest espresso martini I've ever been served. The leaf design in your drink is pretty sweet. Tons of dates here, anniversaries, vacationers, and people super dressed up. Most certainly look your best if you decide to come. Next time I'm in Philly, I'll certainly be back!
