For good comfort food, head to Jones. Just a quick trip from Meetinghouse, this eatery offers plenty of favorites, like fried chicken and waffles, or brisket sandwiches. The interior of this Center City restaurant is charming, to say the least; you'll find wood accents, stone walls, and colorful combinations of tables, chairs and booths, plus gorgeous overhanging lights that help set a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.
Customers recommend the Cheese "Hold the Beef" Burger — a meatless sandwich simply consisting of marinated and grilled halloumi cheese with lettuce, tomato, avocado and a lemon aioli spread packed inside a brioche bun. The pecan crusted tilapia is also worthy of note, served with wild rice and spinach in an orange vinaigrette. Jones also offers dishes like matzo ball soup, perfect for keeping warm on a chilly day, and beef shish kebab with tabouleh and grape tomatoes. Head over on the weekends, and you can enjoy the popular weekend brunch.
