Ahvali Byob - Drexel Hill

We've visited this restaurant twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. During our first visit, I tried the sweet potato pancakes while my friend enjoyed the French toast. On our most recent visit, I ordered the Coquito Banane French Toast, and he opted for the breakfast burrito. Each dish is beautifully presented and tastes even better than it looks! The service is excellent as well. If you haven't been here yet, you definitely need to give it a try!

I've dined here twice, and both times the food was absolutely delicious. They're currently only open for brunch on Saturdays and Sundays, and it's quite the treat. If I had to guess, they’re testing the waters before potentially expanding their hours. I highly recommend coming in to try the food. Show them some support so they can make this a full-time endeavor, as they truly deserve it. The food is fantastic! My lemon cakes this morning were amazing!

Don't let the unassuming location or modest exterior fool you—this place is a fantastic brunch spot, comparable to Sabrina’s or any restaurant you’d find in Center City.

I was here for brunch and dinner. The cook makes food from this world. Just amazing. They certainly do not skip to portion sizes. Super friendly, family-run and operated. What else could you ask?

TLDR: The food is delicious, well prepared, and inexpensive. Their hours are limited, but it is one of the best breakfasts you will find in Drexel Hill Upper Darby. Full Review: We stopped by this spot on a whim and could not be more pleased. The place is family run by a local couple and they put together a genuine gem of a breakfast spot. They're menu is well focused and the food quality is incredible. As an example, both my girlfriend and I ordered the same dish which came with grilled steak. We each ordered a different cook of the steak (medium and medium rare). Each steak was cooked perfectly to the order despite being served at the same time. That's really hard to do. The next talking point is the price. We were a party of three and each ordered dishes on the upper end of their menu price. We ordered an extra side, a cup of coffee, and iced tea. Our total bill came out to be under $43. Diner prices for center city Philly cafe quality food is pretty mind blowing. Finally, the people who own and run the place are the main highlight. They're locals themselves and give attentive, friendly, and personable service. Some of the peppers in a compote we got were actually grown in a local community garden which we learned because they were proud of it and told us themselves. There is plenty of street parking and it's also right off the 102 trolley line. Their hours are limited so you should check online or call before stopping by, but you should not miss this brand new local treasure.
