This time I had plans for another nearby restaurant but walking by and seeing the outside and semi outside seating after a very long winter and a delicious looking salad just beckoning me in was all I needed to change my plans and head right in the door. The place has a very trendy vibe and open air establishment during the warmer months. The Chicken is tender and flavorful and they have a variety of Sandwiches and Salads. Fries were good too but there is a up charge for fries. Pricing was a bit on the high side for what it was but the place was a great place to sit a spell and enjoy the beautiful evening. Server was attentive and friendly.

When you're on the second floor, there's another level up where there is a bar and seats that overlook the stage. If I'd known about that space, I would have come earlier to grab some primo spots (note for next time). Before the show, we grabbed dinner on the street-level/first floor. Johnny Brenda's has different menus for lunch, dinner, brunch, etc. Vegan and gluten-free are clearly marked, which is really helpful. The food was really good. Here's what we ordered: -- Mushroom Croquettes -- Fried Pierogies -- Crab Rangoon Dip -- Veggie Burger -- Liquid Death -- Draft Beer

The food is always great (their burgers and fries are top notch), and the drinks are solid too. What really makes it stand out though is the live music upstairs. The sound is amazing and the space feels super personal, like you're right there with the band. Staff is always friendly and quick, even when it's packed. It's one of those places that just feels like Philly, cool, a little gritty, and full of good people. Easy 5 stars. You can't beat six dollar beers !!!

Very fair prices and they have a great happy hour posted - half off drafts is awesome! Didn't stop in during the happy hour, though prices are still good for food and drink. There is also an upstairs area with more tables good for a hangout with friends. The selection they have is not just sizable, but also some fairly unique / rarer cans and bottles you don't see commonly offered at other spots around the city. Bartender was great with commentary about beers and choosing new ones to try. Good draft list too. I saw on the Untappd app they had a few cans I was interested in so would suggest checking that out too. For food I tried their chipotle Mexican burger. Very large and they also melt mozzarella on the bun itself. Generous with the toppings too. It was messy but also tasty! The fries were on the greasier side though, not as crisp as I would've liked. It also came with a nice lil cup of soup which is nice in the cold weather. Overall a great chill spot, thanks.

It's an Asian fusion bar that feels more like a classic sports bar with some added flair. Alongside your usual fries and onion rings, you'll find things like bánh mì and bacon-wrapped chicken skewers on the menu. We tried both. The bacon-wrapped chicken skewers looked promising but didn't quite land. The chicken was a bit overcooked and had a chewy texture, while the bacon added a heavy saltiness without much depth. It felt like they tried to bring the moisture back with oil after the fact, which made it feel a little greasy. The flavor was very one-note--salty, with no real spice or sweetness to balance it out. I could see it working better if you were drinking, though. The bánh mì was decent but leaned heavily into a Western take. The bread was soft with a light crisp on the outside, but the filling lacked the punchy flavors you'd expect from a traditional one. There was no bold pickled tang or herbaceous kick--just mild meat, light sauce, and basic veggies. Not bad, just not exciting. Where the place really shines is the atmosphere. TVs in every direction, casual energy, and a space that clearly knows its crowd. If you're here for drinks and the game, you'll be in your element. Service was solid. The staff was friendly, quick, and made us feel welcome. Overall, the food didn't hit the mark for me, especially given it's in Chinatown where expectations are higher. But if you want a fun, low-key hangout with a big drink menu and all the screens, this spot makes sense.
