Tasties Goes From Food Truck to Fine Dining in West Philly | Eater Philly

"Located at 1214 N. 52nd Street, Tasties is another casual, takeout-focused spot and sits right next to the new upscale restaurant at 1212 N. 52nd Street." - Rachel Vigoda

I was hungry so I decided to give them a try which i got the chicken and shrimp pasta. The noodles were tasteless mushy and stuck together at the same time like they cook them didn't stir them then let them sit in water all day. The sauce was so watery I never seen Alfredo sauce drip like water before but I did have flavor to it. I had a small portion of chicken I kid you not like a piece of chicken breast or something broken into pieces not a whole piece. The shrimp were big but not cleaned and they had no flavor at all. I spent $32.50. I could be crazy cause I'm actually going to try a different dish later today lol. The Alfredo is a no for me but I'm going to try the fish with Mac and string beans for dinner. It definitely looked better in appearance so yea I'm going to give them another shot.

Celebrated a 30th birthday here on a Saturday. The restaurant is located on a busy street in West Philly and there is only street parking available. The inside of the restaurant is minimally decorated but looks cute. There is limited seating but there seems to be a lounge area upstairs. The menu prices are reasonable (entrees ranged between $15-$40) We had a party of 13 people and the restaurant/ staff were accommodating. The menu is not big but has good food selections. I ordered the whiting w/ 2 sides (Mac n cheese and greens). The whiting and Mac n cheese were delicious but the greens were salty. My friend said the salmon entree was tasty and so was the the chicken and waffles. Overall a decent experience but one suggestion is the place needs a deep cleaning as the seating chairs and menus were not clean.

Been here a few times. I feel different every time I come honestly. Not a fan of the ox tails. I would say my fav dish would be the lamb chops. The chicken wing dinner actually looked pretty fire but I stuck with my lamb. I def wouldn’t come here for date night but with the guys for sure.

I just have to start in say the food was burnt hard & nasty , the Mac & cheese was very sour I couldn’t even enjoy & the customer service is very horrible ! the chef was running back and forth from outside he wasn’t even washing his hands! Yesterday there was young lady verbally abused and mistreated yesterday well I was highly appalled and concerned there were very nasty sexual things being said to her I couldn’t believe my ears me and my boyfriend will not be coming back here the whole place was just terrible and me visiting from outta town I thought I would have a great experience but no I felt very uncomfortable and disrespected I have 2 daughters of my own and felt very disrespected at those comments about that young lady !

I don't know where to start. It should have been a red flag for me when I read the reviews, but I decided to go anyway to see for myself. My friends and I went to the trap brunch. The dj was good, but he didn't interact with the customers like we saw in previous videos on ig (this was the reason for us going). There was someone selling hookah for $40. They charge a entry fee of $20 which include 1 mimosa, not bottomless like most brunch spots. Our waitress was nice but she gave us forks and just put them on the table (please see photo below). If this is supposed to be an upscale restaurant why give the forks out the way she did. The bathroom was nasty and dirty ( I don't have pix bc I left my phone on the table). Finally, our food comes out. I ordered shrimp and grits and it was super salty. One of my friends ordered the chicken and waffles, that was very good. There were kids there with their moyhers. The kids had to be no older than 5. The waitresses were twerking and the music was explicit. One of the mothers tried to cover her childs eyes and he moved her hand. Those kid should not have been there. This should have been explained to them upon arrival. Needless to say I won't be back and I will not be referring anyone else to go there. This place is ghetto trash🗑.

I ordered the turkey wings, and my husband had the oxtail and let me just say the food was delicious 😋 You really get your 💰 worth. The owner was very pleasant and down to earth, and the atmosphere was welcoming . If your looking for good soulfood in philly this is the place to go

I drove 18 mins to this store. I ordered the Shrimp and Chicken Alfredo. The food looked good but was very bland and the shrimp were not deveined so I had to throw them away. I also ordered the 4 wing plater. The wings were extremely salty, hard , and burnt. Either they cooked it in old grease or they refried already cooked wings. It’s my fault for not checking the food before I left. I assumed because they got it out of the grease that it was good to go. Never again.

We came here for our anniversary dinner with a group of 25 people, and this was hands down one of the worst restaurant experiences we’ve ever had. They waited until the very end of our meal to tell us their card machine was “down” and demanded $1,800 in cash — yes, after we had already eaten. After arguing back and forth, they finally agreed to let us Cash App $1,280 and get the remaining $588 from their ATM, which only allowed $200 per transaction with a $2 fee each time. Absolutely ridiculous and unprofessional. To make things worse, the rice was dry, most of the food came out cold, and overall, the service was a mess. For a big group spending this much money, this was completely unacceptable. Would not EVER recommend this place. Total scam vibes and poor quality food on top of it.
