Found Carlotta's online yesterday looking for Fried Fish locally. This establishment is…read moreapproximately 12 minutes from house. It's a local dive bar. It's tucked away in a residential neighborhood. When I walked in it felt comfortable. The vibe was your family friendly neighborhood locals. I sat at the bar to place my order. I like the friendly relaxed vibe, pool tables a live Dj on a Tuesday evening was a nice touch. I ORDERD THE FRIES WHITING PLATTER My sides were Mac n cheese and string beans. I also order 2 single whole Fried wings and a side of sweet potatoes. The fish was crispy not salty nice portion. The flavor was good not salty or greasy or over cooked very pleasant to the taste buds! I like it very much The yams had a lot of nutmeg, it overpowered the actual sweet potatoe taste if you like that.. The string beans, Mac and wings were good I paid $42.00 for the platter 2 wings a side of sweets and 2 drinks. My money went a long way here. I really enjoyed the food. This is a must try !!! You won't be disappointed. You might actually find your self back a second time because it's just that kind of vibe!!!

I haven't been there for a few years because the food quality and taste had changed. I returned recently and it hadn't gotten any better.

He showed me their grocery receipt where they get charged more post covid. I told him I get that plus location but it would've been better to keep pro menu sign as is an up Id give smaller portions (or pay for new pro sign), but handwritten upcharges just looks tacky and mean spirited. He said people complain if small portions. I said let them because they could order double if they think it small. He took it well which is more than I can say for many places with nasty attitide employees. Juice was quite sugary with a sour after taste and cup and lids are not conducive to bike riding. Food was tasty enough and this guy was nice.

Today was an excuse to check in on my old haunt and see how things were going. Ordering was fast, and the food came out quickly to our table. I ordered the garlic soy sandwich, and my friend got the tacos. Honestly the chicken quality is great here-- crunchy, moist, not too saucy, and not overpoweringly flavorful as some other places are. I cleaned that plate and ended very satisfied. There are quite a few tables around for small and large groups. Things were pretty quite here during lunch time, so it's not too busy of a place that you won't be stuck waiting or crammed in. It's definitely busier at dinner time though!

My son and I got there around 11:20pm and they were packed up and closed for the night (even though the hours say they close at MIDNIGHT). We were hungry so went across the street to Lucky Star Food Market. This used to be a 7-Eleven many many years ago. I always see this market when I'm waiting for the 36 Trolley and never went inside until now. It's a nice little market with about anything you could think of inside. They also sell cooked food. My son and I decided to give the food a try. I ordered: Cheeseburger Platter with French Fries -- $5.50 Chicken Nugget Platter with French Fries -- $5.50 3 Chicken Wings -- $3.75 My order came to $14.75 and I also purchased two TastyKake products at $1.00 each and a bag of potato chips at $1.89 The cheeseburger platter was delicious even though the burger was larger than the bun it was on. They didn't use a frozen burger. The French Fries were not fried too hard. My son loved his chicken nugget platter, except they forgot his honey mustard on the side. The chicken wings were another story. They were rubbery and hard to pull apart to eat. They didn't look right. I'll stick to getting my chicken wings from Asian Cuisine near my mother's house. My son and I agreed that we would return if we every got hungry super late at night. This place is apparently open 24 hours. It's in the hood, so be careful.

This was my second visit to Booker's, and it's definitely time for my first review!…read more Booker's is more than just a restaurant--it's an experience. Whether you're meeting up with family, catching up with friends, enjoying date night, or having a professional lunch or dinner, the atmosphere fits the occasion perfectly. The ambiance strikes a great balance between warm Southern comfort and modern sophistication, right in the heart of Philadelphia. The food is consistently delicious. My favorites are the deviled eggs, the salmon, and the shrimp & grits--each one full of flavor and beautifully prepared. What really ties it all together is the excellent customer service, the inviting bar, and the overall vibe. If you're looking for authentic Southern-inspired cuisine with an upscale touch, Booker's is absolutely worth the visit. I'll definitely be back!
