They do such a great job here all around. Easily one of the best byob's in the city.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMDelicious tasting menuSince everything on the menu looked delicious, we ordered the tasting menu, $50 each, 5 courses and loved it. We loved every dish although I think the sardine and the monkfish were both standouts. Also loved the octopus cooked with ham, the chicken gizzards, and a little coconut tart.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful food and service.Wonderful food and service. Love that the kitchen is in the main dining space. We had plenty of food to share between three of us. Two app, one entree and dessert. Would recommend all the dishes apps - chicken gizzards, octopus, entree steak and potatoes (a little salty for me) and dessert devine - coconut custard. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMWOWWe ate at Koo Zee Doo last night and it was one of our most memorable dining experiences anywhere including all of Philadelphia, many trips to France, Belgium, Holland, and Italy. The room is warm and welcoming, the staff are attractive, friendly and experienced. The food is sufficiently different to be exciting without being out of range for any reasonably adventurous eater. The concept is family style sharing so it would be most fun if you come in a group of 6 or so, but we were only two and it was great. The waitress explained it is good to order two beginning dishes and one entree and she was right on; we had the octopus and croquettes first and baked duck rice as an entree; excellent. We will be back often, it is our new favorite.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMMenu is very different inMenu is very different in a good way. Large sharing portions4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMKoo Zee Doo is a stand-out.Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff helped us find our way around the Portuguese menu for an distinctive and memorable meal. Even among the diversity of Philly's restaurants, Koo Zee Doo is a stand-out.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMIf you have not tried yet, GO!This was our 4th trip to Koo Zee Doo and it just keeps getting better. We took my father-in-law with us and ate in the back patio area. Very quiet. We all had the $50 5-course dinner and enjoyed every bite. The sauce used with the prawns was outstanding. A couple of rolls were used to get every drop!!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing food and love theAmazing food and love the family-style sharing! It gives your whole group a chance to try everything - and you can't go wrong. The octopus in gravy is one of my favorite things in the whole world, and the pork special was out of this world. Next time I return I'll have to buy a bottle of their house-made piri piri hot sauce!4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMif you haven't you shouldThis is an amazing place. For real, we ate our faces off for $61. $61!!!! We had the sardines, spicy shrimp, spicy seafood salad (I can't wait to have this again), and the croquettes. We were stuffed! And we were absolutely bowled over by the quality of the food and the expertise and helpfulness of the service. The server didn't try to sell us on an entrada and encouraged our interest in more challenging firsts. I can't wait to go back.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMEasily one of the best restaurantEasily one of the best restaurant experience I ever had.4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMAs a first time visitor, IAs a first time visitor, I wasn"t sure what to expect from Portuguese food, but this one is a winner. Although I did not love everything,
my table mates did. Service was competent and friendly. It seems a good place for a group (we were 4 people) because portions are quite large and definitely meant for sharing.
We will surely be making a return visit.4/3/2013 12:00:00 AMKoo zee doo is one of my absoluteKoo zee doo is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Philadelphia.

Unfortunately the food was also a bit too rich for us. Service was very good.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome BYOB in NoLibs!Koo Zee Doo is a total gem. The Portuguese food is awesome and I liked the Lupini beans to begin with followed by the shrimp in Piri Piri sauce and then the beef and egg dish. The roasted apple and caramel desert is one of the best deserts in Philadelphia. Service was friendly and efficient and the ambience is what you should expect from an intimate BYOB. Thumbs up!!3/14/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome...as alwaysAlways fantastic. Food is simply some of the best in Philly with at-home style service that actually cares about the restaurant.
