Love it here! Food, drinks & customer service is GREAT! I highly recommend for family, friends. Especially if you want to do a get together or after a long day at work. Our server was amazing. Definitely recommend & we will definitely be back. My mother & father eat there a lot & my mother couldn’t wait for us to try them.
I am portuguese, so I am very critical of portuguese restaurants/bakeries because i want to be served the real thing, and a lot of people claim it, but then they can't bring it. I was in philadelphia for a mini vacation, we drove here 25 minutes on purpose, and i was a little disappointed. It's small and busy, the atmosphere was good, just a little loud. The table wasn't clean, but they did come clean after I pointed it out. The biggest disappointment was no egg custards, pasteis de Nata! That was the whole point! It was 2:30, and they said they ran out usually by this time. If you know that happens every day, why not make more??? They also only had 2 or 3 other pastries. Then I asked for 2 sandwiches, the bifana and my husband had an egg sandwich. So, if they are doing their own version of the portuguese sandwich " Bifana" the most popular sandwich in Portugal, it was ok. Too much paprika, really, too much red cabbage, this is not at all the popular portuguese bifana, so I was a bit confused! It had so much paprika that the meat was red. Was it bad? No! But it is not what you will be expecting, knowing this sandwich. All in all, I wasn't totally happy. I wish them good luck. Maybe they can do little changes to get it better.
It was so gratifying to visit Café Liz after so many years. I think around 2003 was the last time I was there and since I had the opportunity to be in the city for a couple of days this place was at the top of my places to have food and drinks. As always it was a great experience like back in the day.
