honeygrow — Restaurant in Radnor Township

Wow, I can’t believe I’m seeing 4 stars because that is totally not what I think this place deserves. First of all, I’ve been to honey grow in Philly many times and have ordered the same red curry stir fry noodles before. Here, they totally messed up. I would expect better considering the area is for rich folks. But I guess they don’t care about taste, quantity, nor fully cooked food? First of all, I barely tasted any curry sauce in my stir fry, so I had no choice but to ask for extra sauce. I’ve done this at the Philly location and they would easily give me extra sauce. Here, the guy told me it’ll cost me $.58 for a small side of sauce. Since my noodles were tasteless, I just paid it and not make a fuss. I think it’s ridiculous that they make you pay extra. Also, I paid $20 for my fiancé’s meal which he got a stir fry with extra chicken plus a tea, but they barely put any chicken in his bowl. He took it back and they worker said they only put 2 small scoops in. But they charge $3 for extra? This place is ridiculously overpriced and insane. The noodles were undercooked as well. Mine had way too much lime juice in it. The staff clearly rushes through the orders so there’s lack of care and attention to the food. The guy who handles the pickup order isn’t nice or friendly either. It’s such a shame for the area and makes this place seem pretentious. I basically wasted $32 on tasteless and underwhelming food, let alone the poor...

I was in Philadelphia from way out of town, and had never heard of Honeygrow. However, there didn't seem to be a lot options for a quick bite at a reasonable piece in Radnor in the mid-afternoon....unless you wanted a sub. So, what the heck?

Friends, I gotta tell you, this place was/is good...real freaking good. I ordered the Red Coconut Curry, 86'd the pineapple (which didn't make sense to me given the other listed ingredients), and added broccoli. A dash or two of soy sauce, a little Sriracha, and I had a really excellent late lunch. As a bonus, the sign said it was less than 600 calories (but who is counting?)

The prices are somewhere in between lunch and dinner prices, which was certainly fine by me given the high quality and amount of the food. To that end, I could easily see this be a perfect 'casual, first date lunch' type of place.

I wish we had Honeygrow where I live. It would go over BIG time downtown in the...

So at first this review wasn’t going to happen but I felt necessary to praise honeygrow for helping me the other day. I ordered from caviar and got the wrong item. This was due completely to caviar and not honey grow. Unfortunately I was at work and couldn’t return the meal and was able to talk to one of the managers on the phone, Keishon. She went above and beyond for me by calling caviar and personally making my order for me and having them bring it to me at work for no charge. She even called when a confusion came up to make sure i got exactly what i ordered. She was amazingly helpful on the phone and ended up making a tough day just a little better. The food here has always been good I love the salads and noodles. Thank you again Keishon it might not have seemed like much but you truly made my day 10 times better. I would highly recommend them and can’t wait to get another meal...
