Reviews for Knishes and Dishes in Lafayette Hill, PA
Exactly what you would expect from the name. Really good stuff here. You can tell it?s authentic by the old waitress telling the... kitchen to make the French onion soup first. Wish I could try more Read more
My girlfriend and I used to love this place, 4-5 star experiences every time, homey brunch dine-in feel. Food is also delicious... and reasonably priced, in my opinion. However, after yesterday, we will probably not be coming back again. Never have I everreceived (or, rather, not received) such horrible service in a restaurant. I understand staffing may be complicated these days,but there is no excuse for being ignored for nearly 30 minutes. We started just standing at the door ignored with two otherparties (7 total people just standing around near the door ignored), then after 10 minutes we were unceremoniously yelled at"Whoever's next come sit here!" If that were the only error it could be excused, but the worst part was sitting unattended (NOTEVEN GIVEN MENUS) at our table for almost 15 minutes while watching the other two parties that came in after us be waited on andhave orders taken. Wait staff walked by us numerous times and never gave us a second glance. After we witnessed the second duohave their order taken and watched the waitress walk past us to put away the menus ignoring us yet again, we got up and left.None of the staff even noticed, and if they did they clearly didn't care.

First time visit. Great service from our server Lisa. Nice Delicatessen menu item selections
Food is really good but the take out service is terrible. They don?t pick up the phone and when you walk in to order a simple... sandwich takes 30 minutes. If you eat in, it?s great. Take out?.not so much Read more
Our experience at Knishes and Dishes was horrible. We won't be coming back, and I don't think you should either. Our server was... a lady with grey hair dyed purple, who did not actually greet us at the door. Usually, you expect to meet an employee afterentering the restaurant, tell them how many to be seated, and then you are shown your seat. Instead, with a mouth full of food,she wordlessly waved at us from the back of the restaurant and pointed at a table. Throughout our experience at the restaurant,she was actively chewing with her mouth open. Beyond that, the level of cleanliness was far below even basic standards - thetable was sticky with some kind of food, the menus were dirty and wet, and there were food particles flying from the waitress'smouth when she tried to speak to us through mouthfuls. That an employee was eating in front of us is unacceptable by any foodsafety standard. We had close friends highly recommend this restaurant and had brought us there as a treat, but it saddened usto have to leave our table before even ordering. Instead of taking our orders, she was socializing with other customers, eatingthroughout the dining room, and completely ignored us when we were ready to order. After waiting around for about 20-30 minutes,we decided to leave and were disappointed that we couldn't eat what was probably great food. The friends that had brought usthere recognized this employee from the past, and they agreed that, though this was indeed related to her usual behavior, thiswas egregious, even for her. In order to avoid this terrible experience, I recommend that you request a different waitressshould she be serving you. From a food safety and customer service perspective, I hope that her behavior changes or therestaurant hires a different waitress. Read more
The customer service was great! The seating was fast during peak time. My fiance and I went on a Sunday morning. Our server was... very friendly and patient. The food was very good. I had the pancakes and turkey bacon. I will return. Quality food at goodprices. The atmosphere was very nice too. Read more
OMG. The food here was so good. And the portions were amazing! We totally stumbled on this place, we were hungry and just saw... the sign and pulled in. The outside is nothing to speak of, but then we went in and it was packed! Always a good sign. I guesslocals know how good and authentic the food is, but I'm here to tell all you travelers that is definitely worth seeking out. Ifyou are looking for authentic Jewish favorites you will find them! I had the loaded latkes (picture) and couldn't finishalthough it was so good! My husband had a western omelette (picture). Atmosphere is nothing fancy, but it was clean. Read more
We got a kick out of our fun server, Sharon, who had way too much work to do! The other staff were likewise nice despite too... busy. Food yummy! Sad they ran out of the knishes and latkes we wanted to try. Read more
