T&N HomeMade Kitchen

I’m sad! All the reviews looked good. I had a hockey puck of an onion ring, a tasteless turkey special with about a dab of sauce on it and floury paste covered tater tots. I was so excited for some good comfort food.

Ok pretty damn good. Cubano Paesano, pork on pork, was scrumptious with broth oozing out each bite. Bread was toasted to perfection, a bit smokey which also smelled delicious. Tots with the creole seasoning and crab were precious down to each tot. Fried and dressed with care and flavor.

Delicious little hole in the wall. Service was very pleasant! We came from Dover Delaware to pick up my sister from the airport and decided to stop for a philly cheese steak and definitely well worth the stop! :)

I snuck over here for breakfast recently. I chose this over my personal favorite Penrose Diner to try something new.
Man I am so glad I did.
When I decided to order the Tater Tot Scramble, I expected the tater tots we are all used to getting. And I would have been happy with those because they are awesome in their own right.
But this place takes the tater tots to the next level with their homemade take on them. This dish with the homemade chili as well is something special. It’s worth a special trip. They take the time to make something unique instead of just opening a can of Hormel and pouring them over eggs and Ore Ida frozen tots.
Heck, I would have been happy with that. But I’m glad they go the extra mile.

To be clear, I want to review their catering service not the actual kitchen, which my husband and I visited and enjoyed eating the tater tots and cubano.
Now I don’t usually post Unilocal reviews bc it’s time consuming and I figure people will figure it out for themselves. But my experience with the catering side was … review worthy. I feel I have to share just for those brides out there making many!!! and stressful decisions that impact their very special day. I’m gonna try to list the things that could be improved upon for feedback bc my intent is not to be malicious but helpful.
1. The initial process was good, Michael was quick to respond and set up a date to try food and talk pricing.
2. After our discussion, he told me he would send a contract as soon as it was done. One month went by– and no contract. I would email or call and he would say he was really busy and he was just working on it. That continued for the months leading up to the wedding– and by 3 months I should have started looking else where, but they came recommended and fit our budget. This lasted until we were one month away from the wedding, and several verbal confirmations that he would be there for us no matter what. At that point, there was no turning anywhere else bc who else would cater one month from a wedding???
He ended up giving me the contract for the rehearsal dinner the day before the dinner. and the contract for the wedding, ON THE DAY OF THE WEDDING!!! what bride wants to do that on the day of the wedding? especially considering it was to have been done months previous?
3. At the start of the process, I was assured rentals would be included into the budgeted price, but when I finally saw the contract– the DAY OF– it was $ 500 over budget– which for a budget conscious wedding is A LOT. He negotiated it down, but had I known that it would be that much more, I would have foregone the tables to begin with and worked with what was at the venue. We couldn’t discuss those kinds of changes before the rentals arrived bc I didn’t know that the price would be that much over. I had such a great wedding week, besides this whole interaction– and any brides out there, I know making sure your caterer of all things is in order will make a big difference in the last days before the wedding.
4. Tardiness. They were late– and it was by enough to stress out my wedding coordinators, though they didn’t tell me about it until after the honeymoon.
5. Clean-​up. It was my understanding that this would be taken care of– but they did a shotty job and my family (sweet people that they are) stayed after to help the wedding coordinator fix up the place. An item was accidentally taken and any attempt to retrieve it by my coordinator has been met with unkept meet ups and now– radio silence.
6. The cherry on top: The rental tables that were over budget– were STILL AT THE CHURCH ONE WEEK LATER. The poor church, they had no idea what was going on, and my wedding coordinator, saint that she is went to meet him at the church and he never showed.
Now again, I didn’t eat much of the food at the wedding. I don’t know if they made up for all of the above with food like they serve at the actual diner– but the point of it is, with business… with GOOD BUSINESS…
communication and follow through are two things I believe are very important.
That being said, I would NOT use them again for a catering event.

Excellent little spot for take out and delivery. Some really inventive menu items. It’s a go-​to for breakfast. I have never had better creamed chipped beef. Delivery is always reasonable length of time and food always arrives still hot.

T&N is our go to. Food is amazing, service always quick and friendly. When in doubt, order some toys!

This is a really cool neighborhood joint! The food was great and the people were so friendly. I would definitely recommend this place!

No complaints here. Food was good and creative. Service was nice I got «Da Bomb» a stuffed pancake with bacon egg and cheese.

Try the tater tot chili omelet. It’s amazing! I highly recommend T&N for any occasion but especially for breakfast. You can’t miss with this quaint South Philly spot. Tell them Stefano sent you.

First time experience with this place… We ordered out breakfast. 2 different platters, scramble eggs w/​cheese, tater tots, toast the same for both orders… side of scrapple and pork roll both cooked to perfection, the toast was perfect, lightly buttered. We ordered through Unilocal,fast and efficient. The food was still hot when we received it, 25 minute deliver. 5 stars Our new breakfast delivery place!!!

Brunched here the other day. I was slightly disappointed as my grits were not smooth, and the eggs were a bit dark probably because the grill was dirty. I believe food should please all senses and a good presentation is just as important. The tots with cheese were yummy. I liked the staff, they were very nice.

Use to like this place ! I wasn’t here for like a year. But I went in on a Sunday mourning penrose was to busy didn’t want to wait ! They had 3 counter girls couldn’t get our order to save there lives !!!
Food actually came out wrong two times for my buddy girlfriend, they forgot my fries and side of bacon !! She asked for scrambled eggs she got a omlet !!
Service –1star
Food 2stars
Ps anyway don’t know if I’ll be back,

If you would like to experience joy on a Sunday morning, I have but one suggestion: get the Chili Tot Scramble. I expected this to be a good hangover meal, but it was much more. Homemade tots (fried mashed potatoes, essentially) covered in delicious chili, eggs your way, and cheese. I think there was some extra hot sauce on it, too. It’s hard to express the glory of this dish. Just order it.
Unfortunately, my vegetarian boyfriend’s Grik omelette was just okay with a side under seasoned potatoes. But it lobed the chili tots so much I almost don’t care what he thought. Make a veggie version of those! Delivery was faster than expected and the food arrived hot. Can’t wait to eat that delicious bowl of goodness again!

Friendly and quick service. Subs are tasty. My only grievance is that they could use more lettuce and tomato, but that’s easily solved by making the request. I highly recommend coming here before a game or event at Wells Fargo Center for both proximity and satisfaction.

So friendly and chill – the old classic music and small town feel make this the perfect neighborhood breakfast spot!

Hair in our delivery order (that took an hour to arrive). Mediocre food. Owner refused to refund any more than the one sandwich, as though the rest of this isn’t tainted as well

We chose this place because of their Unilocal reviews because we are out of towners. We were lucky to come on a Monday morning as seating is very limited. I had the protein sandwich– egg whites, turkey bacon and greens (broccoli rabe!!) with Swiss on toast. So delicious– I’ll be disappointed when my next breakfast sandwiches don’t have broccoli rabe. We had a side order of the homemade tots and they were wonderful. As we were waiting for our food we kept checking out the menu and decided to get a hoagie to go for lunch later in the day. This is only our second time visiting Philly– but we will be back here when we visit again!

I stumbled on this place, via GrubHub in search of someone who delivered breakfast. The Unilocal reviews weren’t a lie! There was 1 issue though that keeps from giving it 5 stars: They buttered my toast for me (thanks!) but placed it in the same container with my eggs, bacon and potatoes. So, it was soggy by the time it got here. If anyone from T&N is reading, perhaps you can pack the toast separately?
Other than that, it was a really yummy, old-​style breakfast like your mom or dad would make you when you were young! I will definitely order or visit here again.

This local eatery showed up on my Unilocal search of nearby places on a frigid, icy February day. And it said they serve breakfast all day! Jonesing for breakfast at 3pm I left the Art Museum and stopped on my way home. If you’re from the burbs you have to get that parking is hard but a few runs around the block and you are sure to find something.
The place is small but who cares. That was the charm of the place. You can interact with your fellow humans I got a seat and ordered within minutes. It was very hard to decide as they had breakfast and an amazing array of sandwiches, Italian and otherwise. The hoagies looked amazing and I ordered an Italian hoagie to go and breakfast to stay.
MEAL: Creamed Chipped beef on toast with potatoes and a coffee. This was comfort food at its best and to die for. Plenty of chipped beef and the potatoes were real, not out of a box and seasoned so well they reminded me of something you’d see on a dinner menu. And the coffee (pressing fingers to lips like the French do to signify something great). The coffee was great. In reading a previous review they say it is La Columbe? If so it was my lucky day.
I’ve been a suburban since I was 7 but I am still that person in the burbs who stops to talk with everyone. I met some really cool people here today and the conversation with staff and patrons flowed over my long afternoon breakfast. That’s how cool this place is. One gentlemen was a film aficionado so using a film reference «I’ll be back»
