    One of the best restaurants in Philly. Even for an expensive meal, it feels like a steak with how much you get.

    Food was good as was service. It’s a bit pricey especially the wine which seems overpriced for small pours

    We had the 8 course tasting menu, which was very good with exclusion of the supposedly Wagyu beef, which was extremely tough

    Every chance I get I dine at a Morimoto restaurant, which is funny because I don’t prefer fish. The non-fish options are plentiful and excellent.
