I'm a fan!  Great space to hold an event, buy jewelry, art, and clothing.  Mary Jane really knows her ish.  Check this place out!

This is one of the more well kept movie theatres in the city.  Prices are standard and the food is your typical movie food.  You don't have the craziness that you'll see at other theatres around the area.  It's one of my favorite places to go to catch a flick.

Adrianne!!!!!!!

I went here a few times during my brief stay in Philly and I really enjoyed the Museum. They have some wonderful art and it's a beautiful building. I remember the exhibits being a bit pricey as was the gift shop, but I guess that's a Museum for you. Is there anyone in the world who has come here and hasn't ran up the steps then pumped their fists in the air?

The Ko family does it right. This is Asian food heaven! They have one of the largest menu's that I have seen and I've yet to go wrong. I had the privilege of being able to sample about 10 different dishes in the same night and it was truly phenomenal. I wish I had sat down and written the review right away, but my favorites had to be the sushi. There were some really unique rolls that were perfectly textured and flavored. The services is also excellent! I wish I lived closer so I would be able to swing by more often.

Man do these guys make unique sandwiches or what?  I was excited to try this place and on all of your recommendations I decided to take a prospect to lunch here.  We were both very happy with the decision.  It's fairly priced, fresh ingredients, and you could tell the employees truly cared about their customers.  The tuna melt was the bomb!  Also be sure to use lots of the hot sauce.  I even bought a bottle on my way out (supports a local charity).

Seriously do you guys ever let me down?!?  It's very hard to find a Chinese place that is affordable and offers brown rice.  I didn't even realize that they did when I was ordering.  I was just amazed by the positive reviews of the orange chicken and egg rolls.  

My family usually comes downtown to visit from the burbs once a week and we try to get new food each week.  We had a Chinese craving and although I love Yen's they have horrific egg rolls.  Marks to the rescue!  They were a bit small and you might want to order two, but they were spectaculent.  We had two large orders of soup, egg foo young, orange chicken, 3 egg rolls and pot-stickers for under $30!  Oh did I mention BROWN RICE!  When I told the lady at the counter that I found them on yelp she smiled and said that she also loves the yellowpages.

While this is a super store for appliances and electronics the customer service is horrid!  I tried calling about a product and was hung up on five different times.  Their return policy is even more of a joke especially if you bought it online.  They will ship you a product that doesn't work and then require you to pay to ship it back.  Stay away from here!  ABT or even Best Buy would be much better options.

I've gone in here a few times to ship items out and they couldn't be nicer.  I always have a pleasurable experience and it's very fairly priced.  I'm not sure if it's Steve that usually works the counter, but if you need something shipped quick this is the place to go.
