Jezabel's

"If you normally wake up in West Philly, start your day with a cheese-and-ham-filled mafalda, buttery medialunas, or a creamy ricotta torta at this Argentinian shop. But any trip to Jezabel's also requires a baked empanada—these are the true headliners. You can get them stuffed with cuts of beef, juicy chicken, tangy root vegetables, spicy lentils, and more. And there are a few tables in the cafe, so you don't have to eat it on the 42 or a park bench." - candis mclean, alison kessler

"West Philly has a culinary treasure in this Northwest Argentinian cafe. It serves tasty South American breakfast pastries like medialunas, mafaldas, and tartas, alongside a full espresso bar menu. This is for the diners who don’t want a large meal, but something fast — yet flavorful — to jump start their day." - Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme, Eater Staff

"Jezabel’s is a daytime Argentinian cafe that always smells like coffee and warm pastries. Open daily, it’s an easy place to start your day with a cheese- and ham-filled mafalda, buttery medialunas, or a creamy ricotta torta. But the baked empanadas are really the headliners. Get them stuffed with cuts of beef, juicy chicken, tangy root vegetables, or spicy lentils." - candis mclean

"At Jezabel Careaga’s eponymous cafe, diners fill up on empanadas, alfajores, and more Argentine delights. Try a variety pack of four crispy empanadas filled with the likes of spicy vegan lentils or chicken with olives for $22 or the breakfast pastry box, a chef’s selection of eight delicious pastries such as croissant-like vigilantes with custard and quince for $38." - Eater Staff, Ernest Owens

"Jezabel Careaga’s eponymous West Philly cafe, bakery, and studio is Philly’s top spot for Argentine sweets like alfajores and custard-and-quince vigilantes. Avoid decision fatigue by preordering a chef’s selection pastry box on the weekends." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
