- KKimberlyPhiladelphia County •22 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe always have amazing food and service here. This morning's brunch was exceptionally busy. We did not mind the wait, as we could catch up with our college-age son while waiting. The wait staff was a bit slow returning to bring take-out containers & the bill, but I am certain it was due to busyness. No matter -- we will be back!More infoUnion and FinchPrice: Moderate• American• Allentown•4.8
