Tabu is Not So Tabu.

This bar/restaurant reminds me of Cheers. The buffalo chicken friends is big enough for two and taste great. It has a mixed crowd, with a restaurant downstars and an open space upstairs where I saw a karaoke show on a Thursday night. A must visit in Philadelphia.

Just what I needed

I am new to the city so I was very relieved to find an establishment that was so welcoming such as Tabu. The staff treated me like family from the time sat down at the bar. I continuously go about once a week for their karaoke Monday which always has an awesome crowd.

If they have it on tap, try the Abita Purple Haze.
