    Popi’s is our family go-to for everything from a Sunday family dinner to college graduation. The food is fantastic- fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service? Impeccable.

    We had a great time! Our server Brena was very attentive. She made sure that we had everything that we needed. She also new a lot about the menu. Our food was delicious! We had the charcuterie, the crab cake, the salmon and the ravoli stuffed with lobster and crab. Everything flavorful and well prepared. We will definitely be back again!

    Great food! Great atmosphere! Great service! Really nice place to go with friends! Music was also good, but not too loud so could still talk and hear each other.

    What a great find! Been coming to Philly for years. Can't believe I haven't found this restaurant before. Good and ambiance was great! Loved the music and food was exceptional. Can't wait to go back! And it had a large parking lot.

    As always, another GREAT dining experience! 7 of us tonight - 4 adults, a Sweet 16 Birthday Girl, a 2 little ones 6 & 2 1/2. We were greeted & seated graciously & quickly. Our server Reilly was patient with us which was nice because of the kids, so we took a little longer than normal to order. The appetizers arrived promptly & hot. Main courses shortly thereafter. Portions were huge & food was DELICIOUS! This is the go-to place before or after a game or concert! Been going here for over 30 years & never had a bad meal yet!

    Excellent service. Beautiful restaurant. Classic white table cloths and good old school service. Good menu selections. I chose one of the specials for dinner which was wonderful. Would definitely recommend and would return.
