You would never think that across the street from a pizza joint in Fishtown, a small, friendly, quiet, bar--named Jovan's Place, is excellent for it's food! With Mom & Pop's cooking, large portions-friendly service--excellent atmosphere--great prices--you can't go wrong! Try it and let your taste buds be the judge.

Pros: fresh/not frozen food
Cons: it's worth the wait

Extremely Good Food in an Unlikely Place
05/25/2005 Posted by danroth

Located in Fishtown even before the neighborhood's current trendiness, this place offers great food, huge portions, moderate prices, and leisurely (friendly and slow-paced) service. Every item on the modest-sized menu is a winner. No Fishtowner should miss this place, and it's worth the trip for others.

Pros: great food, huge portions, moderate prices
Cons: rare smoker at bar
