    We had an early reservation (5pm) and the place was quiet and fairly empty. The tables were close to each other but that was okay for an early reservation. The menu was varied and not overly large, but with enough choices as to suit just about everyone's tastes. The food portions were good and very rich, so you may only want to split an appetizer or a side. I highly recommend the short rib entre or the seared scallops and shrimp entre. Please note that your tab will grow quickly as the prices are a bit steep, but worth every penny. The wait staff was awesome. Our waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and spoke freely about what his favorites were. He also emphasized that all entries were made fresh and there were no bad choices. The only downside was that the noise lever increased as the restaurant became more full, but that was to be expected. I highly recommend Talula's if you want a special place to treat yourself to a fine meal.

    Had some of the best food I’ve ever eaten at Fork. The service was excellent and they went out of their way to offer recommendations to us while visiting Philly. Recommend it to anyone visiting who doesn’t want touristy vibes.

    We had a wonderful evening at Paloma! Our waiter was fabulously attentive, knowledgeable about the menu. We shared guacamole and the Tostado de Cameron. It was light and refreshing. There were 4 to an order and not too big and not too small. Perfect size for an appetizer. I had the one of the specials. Butternut squash and shrimp in a lobster-based sauce along with ricotta. It was amazing. We all enjoyed our meals very much! We brought tequila to add to the delicious pitcher of Margaritas. Although a bit loud it was a great evening of great food!!
