    We had dinner tonight and the food was exceptional! We were the only people in the restaurant tonight which was a little sad because the food and Lambrusco (wine) were amazing. We had the fried calamari, polvo (octopus with onions), Bife a Portuguesa, and Paehlha de Velenciana. So much delicious food and at amazing prices for the great quality of steak and seafood. Will definately come back the next time I'm in Philly.

    My nephew and his wife always make reservations @ Cafe Liz, whenever they're in town. We all get excited about all the delicious food on the menu. My T-bone steak was well cooked and still tender. I added the shrimp in garlic and wine sauce. They're my favorite! My two sides of choice were white rice and tostones, and of course a glass of red sangria. FOOD IS YUMMY!!!!

    This place is fabulous, The customer service is great. I love it because I can come with my family and have a nice dinner and I can also go downstairs to the bar and have fun. The owner of this place is extremely nice, costumer service oriented and the people are beyond pleasant bar and restaurant. I can recommend this place 100 times.

    The food is not bad but a bit expensive for the place , also the server was very dislike, and all the time with a bad actitud , and the bill was not good ,we have to check two times and of course, around 60$ more so absolutely we never back to this place ...

    Since they made me eat French fries, instead of portuguese " carne de cerdo a alentejana" I never went back to that noisy place.

  • 5/5 Richard C. 1 year ago on Google
    My wife and I have been going here for more than 20 years, and we had our daughter's Rehearsal dinner prior to her wedding, there. Always a very enjoyable experience with excellent shrimp and paella dishes, and the service is extremely welcoming and spirited. It would be very difficult to find any significant complaint about this restaurant. We always enjoy the Vino Verde there also. RBC

    Excellent food. The kind of place I'm kind of wondering if I should even review because someone will try to gentrify it. The music was on full blast at 6pm, so if you are expecting a quiet dinner go elsewhere. This is where you go to get down.

    Cafe Liz was great. Great flavorful food and great service. We had the clams in garlic sauce, shrimp in garlic sauce, chicken wings and the Bass. Will be back soon.
