Best Contemporary French Restaurants in Northern Liberties

We had the lobster gavadeils and onion soup for appetizer. EXECELLANT !! We had the poached salmon and duck for entrees. EXECELLANT!!! Service was fantastic!! we split the chocolate tort for dessert and it was delicious!! We go here a couple of times a year for the past 4 years. They NEVER dissappoint

Second time back for brunch, and Mabu keeps growing on me. Lovely intimate space, nice background music, wonderful menu, warm service, reasonable prices - what more could you ask for? I had the French omelet last time and the Croque Madame this time, both of which were terrific. The accompanying salad was also simple and tasty - a pleasant surprise when so many side salads at restaurants don't complement the food or add anything. The only downside is that I live in the suburbs - if i were closer, I would be eating there every week!

This is one of our favorite restaurants. The escargots were delicious. Cesar salad was excellent. The duck was perfectly cooked. The lamb chop and filet mignon special was very good. Great dessert - Apple tarte with ice cream. Good wine selection. A perfect Valentine’s day meal after a great Eagles Super Bowl Parade.
