Our party ordered 4 spritzes and 1 N/A drink, which they messed up and brought all alcoholic drinks, but quickly fixed it when we noticed. The bartender was very apologetic (though i think our server gave him the wrong order so it wasn't his fault). We also got a cheeseboard to share, which was bigger than the server made it sound and not bad for a little snack between the 5 of us. Overall nothing was super special, but it was a nice spot to stop in and have a drink and a bite. Would consider coming back if I'm killing time in the area.

A great meal at Chateau Rouge! My first time there, but looking forward to coming back…read more Its is a small and cozy space, comfortably decorated and - special kudos to them - appropriate music level for dinnertime conversation and enough lighting to read the menu! We had the price fix menu (which unknown to us was actually discounted $10 for Black History Month) that includes an app, main, 2 sides, and desert. The turnovers were popular apps, and grilled skewers and Yassa chicken mains were delicious. I recommend the caramelized pineapple for desert - unusual and delicious. Service was excellent. I thought that for the food, service and ambience it was a great value, even more so considering that it is BYOB. All around really nice evening!

This is hands-down my favorite bar in Philly! Every time I'm in town, I make it a point to stop by…read more If you're a fan of Belgian beer or rare brews that are almost impossible to find elsewhere, this place is heaven on earth. The first thing I did was head straight for my favorite, Cantillon from Belgium. This visit, I tried their Kriek LG, a fruited lambic made by adding sour cherries to a two-year-old aged lambic. All I can say is... WOW! Tart, complex, refreshing, and dangerously drinkable. If beer could win an Academy Award, this one would be giving an acceptance speech. Now, let's talk food. I ordered the Thai Curry Mussels, and they were absolutely outstanding. The broth was packed with flavor, and the mussels were cooked perfectly. They easily rank in the top five mussel dishes I've ever had, and I've done my research! Pro tip: Don't make the rookie mistake of eating all the bread first. Save some for the end so you can soak up every last drop of that incredible curry broth at the bottom of the bowl. Trust me, you'll thank me later. The service is always excellent. John usually takes care of us in the back, and he consistently makes the experience even better with great recommendations and friendly service. In side is cozy and friendly! If you live in Philly and haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for? Great beer, amazing food, and outstanding service--this place checks every box. Just be warned: one visit and you'll be planning your next trip back before you even leave.

And it was walking distance from my hotel. Indeed their beer selection was impressive and carried Belgian Tripels, ales and IPAs and the elusive Pliney the Elder on tap at $8.50 a pint. I also learned their food menu boasts some well known choices. However, on this lunch visit the grill was out of service; no burgers, steaks, etc. I pivoted to their popular steamed mussels. A sizable pot of plump mussels in their black shells swimming in their liquor and considerable diced garlic and chopped fresh parsley. Delicious. The meal was accompanied by pommes frites and small slices of baguette for sopping. A chilled pint of Elder finished the monk's testament to excellence. Take a break from the cheesesteak and commit to the Monk. Well worth it.

A+! It took a while to decide how to proceed with the ordering at My Loup, but I suspect you can't…read morego wrong no matter what you decide. Similar to an omakase, My Loup has a "Let Us Cook For you" option. It's $125 for this option, and given the price ranges of the dishes on the menu, you're guaranteed to cover a broad swath of menu items regardless of whether you go with the Let Us Cook For You option or select $125 worth of menu items to order. While My Loup's menu frequently changes--stated on their website as changing daily--there are some items that seem to stay consistent. The Green Garlic 'Escar-roll' seems to be a staple menu item. And for a good reason! Who would have thought a garlic knot of bread in a green sauce could be so tasty. A lot of other menu items went above and beyond expectations like the apple stuffed cabbage with winter crunch and the roast chicken. On the flip side, the pickled shrimp with aioli and saltines is a popular menu item that I found very uninteresting. Given the mix of solid menu items that are consistently on the menu and the ever-changing new options, I look forward to returning. Very good and IMO, under-hyped restaurant!

Wish i could give it a 3.5! Def some winners but misses as well…read more Oysters were excellent (and even came with two different varieties), amberjack crudo paired well with the nectarines/hazelnuts (although couldve used a touch more acid), and the escar-roll was buttery goodness. The cold lamb was interesting but the green sauce on top helped elevate the flavor + our waiter recommended getting fries on the side (and who doesnt love a good fry?!). The trout fell flat for me - still decent but not worth the $42 price tag. Also disappointed that their online menu didnt match what they had in person because i was ready for a steak and couldnt get one unless i wanted to pay $162! Pro tip is to sit outside if you can because it feels v european and is shaded. :)

i have been to her place 2x now (3 if you include his place thai supper club) and absolutely…read moredeserving of a michelin star. my favorite thing about her place is that the menu rotates every 3 weeks; it's a different experience every visit. they use local suppliers and the ingredients are fresh and season dependent. if you are a picky eater, this is not the restaurant for you. the food here is creative and unique, each menu is so different but delicious nonetheless. i will say: definitely check the menu beforehand -- if there's something you definitely will not like, try for a different menu rotation. also, her place was much better than the his place pop-up. (his place was not worth the $$$, her place was worth the $$). my boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed our last experience here, we already have a reservation booked in may and are excited to see the menu for that rotation. the pasta here is always phenomenal. during the dinner, they typically offer two additional options for entrees -- a pasta and a entree. my boyfriend and i opted in for both this last visit, and they were both phenomenal. i really enjoyed the soft shell crab addition, an indication that summer is here. we were absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal... perhaps we didn't need both add-ons. i absolutely adore how small & intimate this experience is. chef amanda talks about each dish and her inspiration between courses, and she even personally brings food out for the tables. the decor is beautifully thought out with stunning plates, and celebrations will earn you a card, party hats, or a happy birthday song. absolutely perfect for a small celebration or date night! can't wait to come back in may :)

What an incredible experience at Her Place! I've heard so many wonderful things and I'm so glad I…read morefinally got to check it out. We went toward the tail end of the menu (it's rotates every 3 weeks) and everything was so fresh and delicious. The space is so cute and intimate, which makes sense why it's so hard to get a reservation, it probably holds about 35ish people. Their team is ON IT. Explaining dishes, checking in, offering wine pairings. While you're paying for the delicious food, it's really the experience as well. The food was so incredible and they do such a great job of explaining each dish and the thought process behind it. Everything was so great and even the things my table were a bit intimidated by (raw fish), was fantastic and great to give it a shot! The sourdough cookie handed out with the check literally changed my life. If you have an opportunity to snag a reservation at Her Place, DO IT!

Based on Tik Tok, the menu and pictures, I wanted to love this place! We ordered the following…read more(all recommended by the waiter as well): 1. Mini Beef Wellington- prosciutto, mushroom, smoked mustard; 2. Onion Crêpes- gruyère, chives, red wine jus; 3. Wagyu Shortrib Bourginon- red wine, pearl onion, carrot; 4. The Cowboy Ribeye (medium); 5. Mac & Cheese; and 6. Apple Pie- salted caramel ice cream. The Oion crepe was good (tasted like French onion soup). The short rib was good, but very fatty, and Apple pie was good (could have used more cream honestly) The drinks were also good! As for the rest, I LOVE beef Wellington, have it at Gordon Ramsay's in AC a lot. I was so excited they had a beef Wellington appetizer! I can't tell you what tasted so bad in it, but it tasted bad! My wife said it tasted like plastic. I had a second piece thinking it had to be me..maybe too much sauce..nope, it was still off. I saw someone rave about the mac n cheese, however mine had no seasoning or flavor. It tasted like bland melted cheese over plain pasta. The steak was ok, like any other steak. I did ask for medium and it was medium rare (could see the deep red even in the dim light). I didn't bother sending it back since I knew I'd reheat it the next day and bring it to medium. Unfortunately at those prices I would not go back. If the food lived up to the hype, I'd pay those prices in a heartbeat.

This swanky, hip place…read moreoffers up elevated tasty food and superb service in an exquisitely decorated, albeit small, cafe. We braved negative degree weather for the roughly 10 minute walk from our hotel. We walked in at a good time. This is the type of place where a reservation for breakfast would be required. We were sat immediately. The dining area is tight. A green velvet bench, marble tables, metal chairs, all packed into a small area. You could very well have your butt brush over the table of the patrons next to you if you have to get up for any reason. It's tight. Our server was around quickly. He was super friendly and kept things conversational, light and sophisticated. My wife ordered an iced latte, I had their hot drip coffee. For a starter, we had to try the cinnamon knot bread. While it wasn't what we were expecting, it was good. Although, we wouldn't order again. The bread is presented as a small loaf, room temperature with a cold cream cheese icing drizzled over top. The bread had a mild cinnamon flavor and was dry. It lacked the sweet, moist dough you expect from a cinnamon bread. My wife ordered the French style omelet. This had gruyere cheese and chives. Beautifully plated, perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on. It was good enough to forget that she paid $21 for just an omelet, no meat, no sides. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Pretty standard here. The eggs had bright orange yolks which is common for farm fresh eggs. The "coffee" hollandaise didn't come across with a coffee flavor but it was rich and went well with the ham and English muffins. One thing that stuck with me was their drip coffee. Not sure if it has been a while since I had a light roast but the Rival Bros. Revolver coffee was so good, I got a bag of whole beans to bring back home with me. I may even order it again online. Enswell succeeded on all fronts. The ambiance and service was great. The decor, impeccable. The food, thoughtful and tasty. The details from the silverware to the plates added to the experience. We would come back.
