Evan and I tried Moca Asian Cuisine after family members recommended it. It was very good. Loved the restaurant vibe and the service was good. Large portions (not normally a requirement for me, but thought I would mention it). I had the scallion pancakes (crispy, tasty, and not oily), Dan Dan noodles (tasty, moist, and huge portion for an appetizer), and Dragon roll (tempura soft shell crab, tuna, avocado; great flavor without distracting sauces). Evan had the pan fired dumplings (excellent) and chicken teriyaki (he thought it was just okay). Definitely will be trying them again!

Ambience looks good with lighting and comfortable seats. Food is delicious, we tried Takoyaki (octopus Balls) which is different and good. Pad Thai, chicken fried rice are delicious. Overall food is really good and you should try this place out

A Must-Try Catering Experience in Philadelphia – Biryani & Bites I had the pleasure of working with Biryani & Bites for a my Daughter’s 5th Birthday, and I can’t recommend them enough! They provided an incredible lunch spread with around 13 to 15 items, catering thoughtfully to both vegetarian and non-vegetarian guests. Every dish was of top-notch quality, packed with flavor, and perfectly balanced to satisfy everyone’s taste buds. The owners, Chandni Ji and Shirkant Ji, were a delight to work with—humble, kind, and truly passionate about their craft. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The food was delivered right on time, and their service was as exceptional as the meal itself. For anyone in Philadelphia, particularly in University City or Downtown, Biryani & Bites is a must-try for all your parties, whether birthdays or other special occasions. After comparing prices across multiple restaurants in Philadelphia, Biryani & Bites stood out—not only for their reasonable pricing but also for their unmatched hospitality and attention to detail. If you’re looking for delicious, high-quality food with impeccable service, do yourself a favor and give Biryani & Bites a call. They truly made our event memorable!

Food was good. Slow kitchen. Server was very friendly. Don’t get any food out of the case… it’s dry

Delicious, fresh food and inviting atmosphere. Service is outstanding. The prices are very reasonable and reflect the high quality ingredients and cooking. We will be back here again and again!

Right, listen up, because this place needs to hear the hard truth. Calling this an authentic Vietnamese restaurant? Not a chance. I get why they’ve toned things down—probably catering to local palates that can’t handle the real punch of Vietnamese flavors. But, as someone who’s grown up on true Vietnamese cuisine from San Jose, Houston, and Dallas, I know what proper Vietnamese food should taste like. We’re a proud food culture, and we demand the best. Sadly, that’s not what’s happening here. First off, everything on the menu here is overly sweet, like they’ve dumped sugar in every dish. And don’t even get me started on the portions for what they’re charging! A grilled platter “sampler” set us back $17, and what do you get? The meat is so skinny it’s practically see-through, and they rely on noodles to fill up the plate. The marinade? Too damn sweet, like syrup. Sure, the rice noodles themselves are alright, but this isn’t a noodle shop, is it? Then there’s the pho. That broth is a sugar bath! The noodles aren’t fresh, the meat portions are skimpy, and the balance is all wrong. And don’t even get me started on the clay pot catfish. $23 for what? Some sad little chunks of fish in a syrupy, thin sauce that was more sweet-and-sour than anything resembling authentic Ca Kho To. They didn’t even bother with a proper clay pot! Instead, it came in a Korean stone bowl. I mean, if you’re charging $23, at least bring the right equipment! This wasn’t rich, caramelized catfish; it was like dessert gone wrong with fish thrown in. Absolute robbery, and completely off the mark for what this dish should be. The spring rolls were no better. Skinny, with a ridiculous amount of rice noodles and barely any protein. It’s like they’re rationing flavor. Paying for this? You might as well throw your wallet out the window. Now, the one saving grace? The Banh Beo. Steamed rice cakes with a few toppings and some nuoc mam. It’s hard to mess up. I enjoyed it because, frankly, I can’t get that elsewhere. So, if you’re into this, go ahead. Keep eating here. But make no mistake—this is not authentic Vietnamese food. Real Vietnamese cuisine is all about balance: a dance of sweet, salty, sour, and fresh flavors, with textures that hit every note. This place? It’s just American-Vietnamese food.

We went to Mahaksha this morning for brunch with our friends, and we must say we thoroughly enjoyed the food. Most of us ordered either Thali or the lunch combo, along with a couple appetizers; all were impressive. Food was flavourful and authentic. The service was very commendable. Gautham was friendly and managed the orders from the group well. He was always ensuring that we are attended to and taken care of.

Absolutely phenomenal! The menu is the largest you have ever seen! (A legit book)! A must have for Indian cuisine! I had a scrumptious spicy mutton (goat) curry and it was delicious!! I’m definitely taking my family back here again!

Food was amazing Service was also good. The owner she’s very humble she take care of ever single customer

Very friendly staff, very tasty food. The medium curry is good if you want a nice burn but it’s not too overwhelming at all.

Wow .. randomly found on Happy Cow while we were in the area and ordered cumin lamb and bang bang noodles (hand made). All VEGAN! We are not fans of sweet and more savory/spicy folks. So if that's your taste, order these. Amazing!

The place hasn't changed a bit in the last 20 years and I am not sure it's a good thing. We were excited to hear that the buffet was back on the weekends, but everything was picked over, too greasy, too salty and generally not as tasty as we remembered from years past.

Delicious. Everything was fantastic! I got Mapu tofu (which they made for me even though it was not on the menu). I also got Sesame Cold Noodles. They were Delicious!

They say you can eat in, but don't bother. Your dinner will come in a plastic take-out container and if you ask for water, they will give you a bottle and charge you $2. Also, the Kung Pao chicken was made with fried chicken, which I've never seen before - also kind of bland. Fried rice and Egg roll were good.
