Bar Bombon

Amazing food! Some of the best Latin vegan food I have had to date! Nico my waiter was amazing - superior service!

BABY!!!! BAR BOMBÓN!!!!!!!! This has got to be one of the best vegan stops I have hit since 2015 (that’s how long I have been seeking out vegetarian/vegan food)! Tots on a day trip in Philadelphia and had this spot on my list because, of course! (Do yourself a favor and go look at the menu boo). I dined in, making a reservation that day, I was also a solo party. To start with drinks, I had the Cantaloupe Paloma and the La Preferida. So refreshing and light!!!!!! In the food arena, I snagged the Philly Steak Empanadas with spicy ketchup! In addition to that, the Sweet Plantains with aioli! Baby, you will want to slap the table! My main course was the enchiladas de mole with jackfruit as my filling option. My eyes were closed pretty much every time I put that fork in my mouth. I literally was flabbergasted by the fireworks going off in my mouth. Like…. The audacity of those flavors to be so dang good! So go ahead, make your reservations!

Amazing! Love it every time. Can’t recommend their margaritas enough. Brunch is spectacular and the tacos are always a hit. Try the philly steak empanadas! Very unique and tasty.

Our night was made by our server, Clarence ✨✨ amazing service! He gave us an intro to the menu, and helped us choose our pitcher. We liked it so much, we got another pitcher!! Food was really good. Happy hour is worth it! Everyone in our party enjoyed our food - fish tacos, seitan bites, quesadillas ! the TRES LECHES CAKE IS AMAZING! I stopped going for dine in for awhile bc i felt the service was a bit….. stiff and rude but I feel completely different now, Clarence is the only server I want tho 🤣 Definitely make a reservation if you’re going with a group! Had we had one, we would have stayed longer.

One of my favorite restaurants in Philly whether for lunch, brunch of dinner. Love the plant based / vegan options. 💚 Most recently enjoyed the restaurant week lunch with the empanada, buffalo cauliflower taco and sweet plantains. What made our time there standout this past visit was our server Nico. He’s genuine and can tell he enjoys his work. He was helpful with recommendations and was a mind reader for our needs. His kindness and proactiveness is very appreciated!!

Chips and Queso were a miss for me but my girlfriend liked it. Tacos were really good. Although I feel like the taco Tuesday version of the oyster mushroom tacos are better than the entree version. Also had the jerk seitan wings unpictured. Jerk flavoring was not really a hit but the texture of the seitan was great.

Marlo was awesome!! Attentive, but never hovered, answered all of our questions with a smile, made sure we had what we needed. Just overall a fantastic waitress!! I hate to say it but the manager wasn't as friendly. We saw the manager and Marlo bump into each other, clearly an accident, Marlo kept apologizing while it looked like the manager was about to punch her. She didn't but it definitely gave us the vibe that the staff is abused. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, maybe she was having a bad day but she definitely seemed to have a negative impact on the staff and the energy changed when she left (she's why I'm leaving 4 stars instead of 5)....do with that what you will, but remember happiness is a choice! Anyway the food was great! We had a table of 5 and the young man (I didn't catch his name but he was shorter with dark hair and nice nails!) who seated us was super accommodating and made sure we were comfortable in our outdoor seating, which we had requested. We devoured a few chopped salads, double burger, avocado toast and shared a plate of pancakes. No crumb left behind!! Everyone was satisfied and happy! My friends said the drinks were excellent too. Although the weekend unlimited mimosas were super tempting, I decided to behave myself. If you like delicious Mexican food and great people watching I highly recommend a sidewalk table!! I'll definitely be back for mimosas and to eat my way through the menu.

This was a nice, cozy place. It's a smaller space but beautifully put together. The food comes out as it is finished being prepared, so waiting for everyone to get their food to eat may not be worth it. They were very accommodating with my food allergies, but I was very limited due to a coconut and soy allergy. The hearts of palm tacos were tasty, but I would have loved a sauce, but...allergies so all good.

We visited a charming little Latin American vegan spot in the heart of the city. Despite it being quite busy, our online reservation ensured we were seated promptly. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the service was solid. Our server did an excellent job explaining the menu and helping us order just the right amount of food for our group. We started with Nachos and Spicy Guacamole, along with the Spanish meatballs. While the nachos and guacamole were enjoyable, the meatballs fell flat. For our mains, we opted for the Impossible Tacos, Smoked Pork Pernil, and the Double Chorizo Burger. Although the portion sizes were on the smaller side, they were just enough. Unfortunately, none of the dishes really stood out, as the flavors were fairly underwhelming overall. IG: journey_man16

Honestly love this place usually but was disappointed by an experience on Saturday. We had a large party, a group of 16. The host of our party was under the impression that we had the table until 9. Granted, I wasn't on the email chain and this does seem like a long table time, and it might've been a misunderstanding. However, at no point did the host, server, or the manager who was overseeing the party mentioned to us that we would've have to get up at a certain time. After dessert was served the manager came over to our host and asked him how everything was and he gave a glowing review. At this point, she said that's great but you guys have to get up. Our group complied, however a couple of us still had dessert that we weren't done eating and beverages that were half drank. It was disheartening and left a bad taste in my mouth, especially after us spending over $1000 at the restaurant. As someone with many years in the service industry, the expectation of a table time limit should've been set ahead of time when we arrived so that we could pace our eating/enjoyment appropriately. It would've been different if it was mentioned when we arrived or at any point during the two time we were sitting there. To rush us at the end after we had paid and tipped and said nice things felt weird. So I don't necessarily recommend doing large parties here - or make sure you understand the expectations ahead of time. Still good food though 🫡
