- MGMG520vipPhiladelphia County •35 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWhat a phenomenal dinner! The restaurant was bustling when we arrived, and the host seated us immediately. The service was exceptional, and the food was incredibly fresh, inventive, and delicious, and coursed perfectly. If you love seafood, this must be at the top of your to-do list. We will definitely be back!More infoLittle WaterPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Center City•4.6
- KKerryWashington, D.C. Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Our only disappointment was that it is no longer BYOB and charged $35 corkage for each bottle. The wines they offered were from a Pennsylvania winery.More infoRoxannePrice: Expensive• American• Queen Village•4
- DDaylevipNew York City •146 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoWe expected to eat a Thanksgiving dinner at this restaurant. Imagine our disappointment when we saw a big sign advertising the Brunch. We had to order from the regular menu with no specials. It was clean and our waiter was very good.More infoKeating's Rope & Anchor Bar + KitchenPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Penn's Landing•3.9
- JJudePhiladelphia County •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoOur Thanksgiving dinner at Fork was everything we hoped for, from inventive takes on traditional dishes (like cranberry sauce flavored with star anise) to the newly renovated (moody, sophisticated) dining room. Highlights included fresh oysters and perfectly dressed tuna crudo, and roasted butternut squash stuffed with tangy labneh. No detail is overlooked—even the parsley butter for the dinner rolls was memorable. Creative cocktails like the “Sibling Rivalry” and a surprisingly smooth barrel aged Wild Turkey (a nod to the presumed centerpiece of the holiday meal) set the vibe, and service found the sweet spot between unobtrusive and efficient. Can’t wait for the seven fishes on Christmas Eve.More infoFork - PhiladelphiaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Old City•4.7
- JJeffreyPhiladelphia County •7 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 24, 2024An outstanding experience as always. Whether I bring family, clients or business partners, The Moshulu food and service is 5 stars. As usual the service, smiles and promptness is perfect. "YASMINE" our server made my business partners very comfortable and brought top dining service to a new level. Professional, confident and well learned about the menu (including the specials) there was no doubt what we ordered would be spot on. Our hostesses greeted us with smiles and seated us promptly, well dressed and proper. Hats of to the chef, spectacular food prepared perfectly, and the dessert was to die for. It felt great to tell the manager how awesome their team is. He does a fine job keeping up on things. Whether you're on a long trip up the coast or local do NOT miss this Jewel, the ambience alone will "Awe" you. They have plenty of seating, and even an outside upper deck (weather permitting) Make reservations to assure you have a seat. And take care of those those taking care of you, the world doesnt like cheapskate...More infoMoshuluPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Penn's Landing•4.6
