I have had brunch here twice. The best parts are the Mimosa pitcher, cocktails and service. My first time there I ordered the Banana Panckes. It was ok, and is really better to be shared since the serving is huge. However, I waited to go this second time for a different perspective. We ordered Breakfast items, and I chose the Fried Chicken French Toast. I was disappointed as it was obvious no part of it was cooked to order. Definitely on my list to meet friends for cocktails, but not for Brunch.

Was in town for the weekend to visit my best friend and this was the spot for brunch! The vibes were right (music was on point the whole time we were there!), the strawberry-orange mimosas had us right šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’ØšŸ¤ŒšŸ¾, and the breakfast sandwich with home fries was delicious! Definitely recommend this spot if you like the intimate and cute dining!

We landed in an outdoor private booth just beyond the maĆ®tre d’ desk. The views are good and the atmosphere superb. Becca took excellent care of us and is an asset to SOMO Manayunk. The Asian chicken wings are a must; we loved them. We added a fillet of salmon to our lobster ravioli and shared the plate. Perfectly cooked salmon is rare but there was no fishy taste here at all. Dessert was in order and beignets got top billing. Coffee magically tastes better here and no one rushes a good thing. šŸ˜‰ #LetsGuide Philadelphia

My friend and I stopped here for brunch while we were attending the Manayunk Arts and Craft Festival on Saturday. My friend got the Somo burger which was so big she could hardly take a bite of it. 6 ounces of beef with cheddar lettuce tomato and onion on a brioche roll. I had apple cinnamon french toast with pecans toasted coconut and whipped cream. It was delicious. Shout out to Sadie for her patience courtesy and pleasant service. Will be back for sure.

This place is busy on a Sunday and for good reason. I made a 1pm reservation for 4 people and once the entire party was there, we were quickly seated to a table. We ordered the Mimosa tower for $69 which was a great price versus individual drinks. I ordered the Fried Chicken French Toast which included a sunny side up egg (which I requested be fried hard) and a gravy drizzled over the chicken. The food was delicious. I plan to return and try something else on the menu.

The place is very warm and inviting, and the atmosphere is breathtaking. The tables are rather small, but plates for the most part were taken away quickly. The server checked in enough that it wasn't overbearing, and she was able to give knowledgeable recommendations. Food from ordering to table was timely, I didn't like the sweet potato fries but everything else was delicious.

Loved it. The Chicken & Waffles were the best I’ve ever had. It was a perfect blend of so many tastes that just worked perfectly together. It gets busy in here (for good reason), but our server was still great & attentive. Looking forward to going back.

This is a good lil spot. The ppl are friendly & the food is good. We got these Cheesesteak rolls for an appetizer which were delicious but they could’ve had a bigger portion for the $14 is cost. For the main entree I got the Ginger Glazed Salmon & the Mrs got Shrimp Scampi and she said was great. So this place gets 4 stars because it is a little tight & the prices are kinda high but the food is definitely good.

The food was great at Somo. It was a girlfriend of ours birthday weekend so we ate here. The ambiance was very comfy and the drinks had a kick to it, if you order alcohol drinks that is. The Sriracha sweet wings were delicious and the Salmon was well cooked. I will definitely come back with my husband and other friends.

Decided to swing by and try this place out.. Let’s just say I was satisfied with the outcome. The service was a bit slow, but it’s understandable since it was a little busy. Food came out pretty quick, but it seemed like my potatoes from my huevos rancheros were just sitting under the light for a while. The brisket gravy was very salty and all of their sauces are just random things with lots of mayonnaise. Another thing is the appetizer was better then my actual entree.. (Sriracha and honey wings) I would definitely give this place another shot in the future.

Let me start by saying I've eaten here twice, once for dinner with my husband and once for brunch with family. Both times the food was great. The service was good. With that being said the atmosphere is a classic case of trying to squeeze way too many people in a small space. The tables are so close that it was nearly impossible to get up from the table. It was cold outside on my last visit and we were sitting near a door that would remain open for far too long making my party and my food cold.

Went for brunch and made reservation…they have outdoor seating. The food was very tasty. Service was nice and friendly. Not perfect but still an enjoyable experience. Definitely would go back. Bottomless mimosas for $26 pp .. Bourbon Manhattan was $13.

Wish I took some pictures. Worldly fusion cuisine, with a heavy Italian influence. Loved the apps, including the burrata plate. Remember the bar area being sleek and clean, but no other particulars about the appearance stuck out to me. Waiter was excellent. Would definitely visit again!

This was a cute spot for a date! I had the Somo burger and my fiance had the disco fries. The burger had fresh toppings and the bun was very light and buttery. The sweet potato fries were not my favorite, I like my fries on the crispier side. My fiance really loved the fisco fries and said he liked them more than poutine. Outdoor seating was nice and the service was good as well.

The atmosphere was nice. The food was delicious, wings, fried chicken and french toast. The wings are hot so get some water. The mimso tower huge, we had 5 drinks each. I can't wait to go back.
