Last night, I previewed the upcoming dinner menu for Brotherly Grub at Jacob's Northwest and it was divine🔥 This Black women-owned restaurant in Northwest Philly is about to be a force to be reckoned with when they transform this popular brunch/lunch spot into a full fledged all day spot!
A bit of a wait, like 45 minutes... but to be fair the food was excellent. Fish cooked perfect and tasted totally fresh. The crab Benedict with the sautéed spinach was unexpectedly delightful. Better than anything I've recently had in avenida, naples, South Miami, key largo or manayunk.
I placed a door dash order. I went to pick up my order after being told that it was ready. When I get there I immediately got the sense that there was no sense of organization with their to-go orders. I'm eventually told that I would have to wait an additional 30 minutes and there appeared to be no concern about the delay. I returned after 30 minutes giving them more time just in case. I finally received my food and the presentation was horrible and it was cold. I checked my bag and there was no syrup so I went back in to get it. I understand that restaurants are busy and they tend to have to focus more of their attention on customers who are dining in. However, the lack of professionalism in is place really needs to be addressed.
It's a quaint unassuming spot that has a lot to offer. Don't pass up this little grm of a place. Treat yourself and check them out; you won't be sorry!
Although there were only 2 other patrons at tables when we initially arrived, the wait time for the food was ridiculous. I am not sure I will dine-in again but take-out is a possibility. The food was delicious and the outdoor seating area was nice. However, the wait for the food, the service, the check, and take out orders left us miffed as we walked out 3 hours later.
