Went for one of their Kamayan nights…read more Interesting concept and certainly fun to try with friends - as long as you don't mind family style sharing and getting a little messy. A little pricy for what it was ~$70 per person after tax and tip All of the proteins were very well cooked - fish was flaky and moist, the chicken was extreme tender. And the lumpia and pork belly were both crispy and well seasoned. All the sauces were extremely delicious Only downside was the balance - far too much rice in relation to the amount of vegetable curry and protein and neither of these were particularly flavorful The interior was also pretty small although service was attentive If they improved a little on the flavor of their carbs and curry base and provided a little more value for the cost I think this would have been a knockout meal

When the seafood boil bag sensation took hold of every seafood restaurant around I really backed…read moreaway from it. Eating out of a bag seems unnecessarily messy and unappealing. Plus, as I've noted in other reviews, I can't really justify the pricing when compared to the crab leg haul I can get at the local Acme. I guess it's like drinking out....you know that one glass could get you an entire bottle at the liquor store. All that aside, I was finally willing to give it a go just for the sake of having tried it. This place is down the street from The Met and my Mom and I came after after seeing a show. I could not understand why it was empty. Friday night, packed show just let out and Crab Du Jour was dead. Huge space and only one table was dining. This made me rethink having the boil. Mom and I both decided to play it safe and got fried flounder baskets, fried shrimp and cheesesteak egg rolls. The food came out lightning fast. If we ordered the shrimp at 6:05 they landed on the table at 6:10 no lie. And everything was piping hot. Too hot to handle. I don't know if that's a bad thing but when you're really hungry well. All the breading fell off the shrimp, shame, but the shrimp were clean. The egg rolls tasted like something other than steak. I can't place it. The flounder was the favorite. I would give them another try though. It was early in the evening and while their musical selection was boring me to tears, The Righteous Brothers Unchained Melody anyone, the lady server did change it when I made a sleeping joke.

Amá was, start to finish, a beautifully executed and memorable experience. Aesthetic, drinks, food,…read moreservice, and everything in between. I absolutely love Mexican food and will get excited as soon as I see a menu like the one at Amá, but ultimately tasting is believing and I can now report that my expectations were definitely met and perhaps even exceeded. I don't get to dine out in Philly that often. Though it's my hometown, I haven't lived here for some years now, but my foodie sensibility is the way that it is because of the culinary expertise coming out of the city. We came here at 8:15 on a Saturday night. Though this restaurant is wildly popular, I can see why it wasn't impossible to get a reservation here because it quite a large space. As others have said, the interior is gorgeous and chic, open concept, modern decor, tasteful use of lighting and decor elements that really punctuate the more minimalist backdrop. I started with the El Chapo (gin, sotol, verjus, aloe, clarified aguachile) which is the obvious choice for all of your martini lovers out there. At this point I never assume I've seen it all when it comes to garnishes, because they're getting more and more wacky and creative by the day. This one came donned with a tortilla chip atop which sat a delightful dollop of roe. I then got the Dixbee (mezcal, reposado, mole negro, totomoxtle) which gives more Old Fashioned than Negroni and is definitely more of a dessert or at least later-in-the-meal drink as it's richer with some chocolatey notes. I've had mole in mezcal drinks a good amount and there's something about the combo that just hits. Food-wise, though I go to Mexican restaurants a fair amount, there were quite a few ingredients I didn't recognize on the menu which was both disorienting and exciting. Amá showcases live fire technique which means you'll see (and smell) and lot of smoked, grilled, charred, etc., on the menu. Goes very well with the bountiful mezcal they offer. I don't need to do my typical grading system with this one because everything was an A+. I definitely looked at which dishes were praised most in reviews prior to ordering but it seems incredibly hard to go wrong here. Eats, below: Chips and Salsas w/ house guacamole, six variations of salsas, heirloom corn tostadas A salsa sampler is one of my favorite things. For one, I absolutely love salsa. All of the variations but the spicier the better. And second, my partner is not very into spice so we don't end up getting a lot of spicy dishes when we split things but such a sampler allows each person to try at their leisure and own risk. And even though I got it for the salsa, the guac was incredible too. Aguachile del Día (kampachi) Absolutely divine. Fresh, bright, with a little spice from some serranos and a little crunch from some corn nuts. Also served with some tortilla chips so you can get it all in one bite. Shrimp Ceviche Tostada w/ pico de gallo, burnt árbol, ancho chamoy There's a reason this one is being talked about. Another impeccably fresh dish, the shrimp and herbs combined with the creamy avo and crispy tostada all tied together with the bright, spicy chamoy. Wood Fire Caesar w/ little gem, pipicha, parm, crispy masa crunch We were between a few different veggie dishes and our server strongly encouraged use to get the Caesar. I think he said something along the lines of "a Caesar salad has no business being this good" and he was right on. Hard to say I've had a Caesar salad that competes with this because this is honestly in its own league. Pollo a la Leña w/ adobo, crispy potatoes, ají verde, atapakua sauce Though we don't usually get chicken for this we made an exception because of the hype around this dish. You can see how magnificent it is from the picture. Between the dusting on the skin and sauce and the juiciness of the chicken itself, this is really how a chicken entree changes minds and hearts.

The restaurant also had a lot of beautiful artwork throughout the space which made the vibe even better. We had the shrimp ceviche tostada, seasonal tlayuda, woodfire Caesar, and the pollo a leña. Every single dish was fantastic. For drinks, I had the "Goes to Tulum Once" and she had the "Little Tokyo Margarita." Both were amazing. Definitely would recommend this spot and we'll absolutely be returning.

Unfortunately, I was really looking forward to the rice and was told that they were completely out when they weren't. Disappointing. The longanisa is a sweet sausage, so for folks who may not like a sweet breakfast, it isn't for you. I got the Ube latte and it was tasting earthy. Maybe I got it with skim milk.
