Best Bistros in Exton

First visit to A.Kitchen and it was a great experience from start to finish. Sat at the chef's counter where we watched our chef juggle the lunch crowd by himself with a smile and great skill. We had a glass of wine from the small but well-selected list and a specialty cocktail. Great start. One server for the small room but she was so nice and attentive despite the challenge. Opened with the Chickpea Panisse. A unique taste of delicately fried chickpeas, not a falafel ball, but a relative over tahini and charred veggies. Large steak frites came with huge steakhouse fries, perfectly grilled as ordered. Branzino was a filet grilled to absolute perfection with tiny veggies all around. One chance for a first impression and A.Kitchen over delivered.

We love Mabu. The food is consistently good, the service is wonderful and the ambiance is cozy. The menu is small but very varied so there is something delicious for everyone to enjoy. This time we also had the dessert. The mudpie was rich and intensely chocolatey. The tiramisu was velvety and airy. It is also a BYOB, which I really like.

Unbelievable service experience. From the manager to the waiter that helped us everyone was absolutely amazing. Food and ambience are next level!

First time at Merrick's Tavern and we're glad we came! Service was excellent. The waitress was attentive. The food was delicious. Loved the appetizer (Cabbage with pear). The French Onion Soup was the best! So filling. The pork chop was tender. Risotto so flavorful. No room for dessert! Highly recommend Merrick's. We will definitely return:-)

Delicious meal, great ambiance, and happy to help support people fulfill their culinary educations!
