I was in Philly for work, and luckily had a free night during a busy conference weekend. I was able…read moreto meet up with a local friend, and Vedge was an awesome vegan find. At first, I was worried we would only be able to get bar seating since neither of us put in a reservation. Luckily, the wait staff was able to seat us at a booth as long as we finished by 8pm---perfect! We weren't super hungry, but we were able to share one of the appetizers and get dishes for each of us. The appetizer we got was the rutabaga fondue, with pretzel bread and pickled veggies. It was an intriguing dish and the pickled veggies added an interesting tang. For my entree, I got the grilled tofu with kanzuri glaze, okinawa potato, sunchoke miso butter, fancy radishes, and shiso. The presentation was very much on point! For the two of us, our entire meal was around $80. A great experience from start to finish!

I had high hopes for my meal here. I love vegetables. But I don't care for smoky flavors, and that…read moreseems to be a key characteristic of the menu. I enjoyed the spicy dan dan noodles, made with delicious mushrooms. Everything else was just fine or too smoky for my tastes. I had a really nice glass of wine with my meal.

We popped in after a show in the area. It was our first time trying a vegan restaurant, so our…read moreexpectations were nonexistent. This place is beautifully decorated. The vibe is horror movie chic, if ya know what I mean. We were greeted and seated promptly and immediately checked out the menu to see what we should try. We asked for the macaroni balls as an app, but they were sold out. A few minutes later, we were told we could order them bc the chef had made a new batch. Yay!! So, we started with the Mac balls and seitan Korean wings. Our apps arrived and I must admit. I enjoyed the seitan wings more than I did the Mac balls. The Korean BBQ (seitan) wings had an amazing sauce that truly made me forget I was at a vegan restaurant. They were crispy, savory, and just delicious. I decided to go with the gyro and my partner went with the cheese steak for his entree. My gyro was yummy! The impossible beef, lettuce and tomato were reminiscent of a regular gyro. I truly couldn't tell the difference. My partner loved his cheese steak too. Monster vegan is a HIT!! Would we try it again? Absolutely!!

Everything was extremely flavorless. I was plant-based for four years and I enjoy vegan food. I am not new to the scene. The menu offers some nice dishes, but flavor was lacking in everything we tried. I also ordered a cold brew and it was served to me bubbling and sparkling. Took a sip to make matters worse and it was stale/something was wrong. Fortunately, they removed it from the bill. This place was a total let down.

One of the best meals I've had in Philly, which is a bold statement for a city with a phenomenal…read morefood scene. A server at a restaurant in another part of town recommended Pietramala. "Even if you're not vegan, go," she advised. Making a day-of reservation for 9:15pm on a Saturday in June, I walked in and was seated right away by a kind staff member. Within minutes, my glass of water was full and my equally kind server was walking me through the menu. The menu elevates vegetables and they source their ingredients from 16 farms nearby. (Most are in Pennsylvania.) Not overly hungry, I ordered two mid dishes and a dessert. (The menu is organized by small, mid, large, and dessert.) Each dish was masterfully executed and full of flavor. Suzuki Farm Kyuri Cucumbers were perfect. They come out as four large cucumber halves with all the fixings. Don't be shy. It's easier to eat them with your fingers per recommended by my server. The next dish was the Urban Roots Farm Sugar Snap Peas. The crunch of the peas with the wasabina oil complimented each other well. For desert, I ordered the Bomboloni with pistachio cream. The warm texture of the dough and creaminess of the pistachio cream was divine. I ordered another. It may be my favorite dessert I've ever had at any restaurant anywhere. If you love creative and quality food, go here. You won't regret it!

My boyfriend and I walked in on a Saturday night for a celebration dinner. They were very busy and…read morethey didn't have any open reservations but when we called and told them we would arrive in 30 mins, they saved two of the bar seats for us. For drinks, we ordered the elderflower shrub and sanguinello to drink. I liked the elderflower shrub since it was sweet and refreshing (slightly carbonated) but the sanguinello tasted bitter and medicinal. Since my bf really didn't like his drink, the server was nice enough to let us change our amaro drink to another elderflower shrub. For food, we ordered sourdough focaccia with tomato xo sauce (similar to chili crisp oil) and the potatoes dish. The sourdough was fluffy and delicious and the xo sauce gave it a nice flavor but it did make the bread greasy. The potatoes dish tasted good because of the creamy sauce that was drizzled on top. We also ordered the kyuri cucumbers and durum ravioli. The kyuri cucumbers had a fermented ramp ranch that gave the cucumbers a nice creaminess and the garnishes (spring onion and giardiniera) gave the cucumbers a nice texture. The durum ravioli had a cheesy taste due to the cultured cashew ricotta but I wasn't a fan. Overall, we would order the potatoes and cucumbers again, maybe we would order the sourdough focaccia (if you don't mind the greasiness), but we wouldn't order the durum ravioli again. For dessert, we ordered the macadamia ice cream with strawberries, shaved ice with rhubarb, and basil. Even though the ice cream was unique, we also wouldn't order it again. The basil flavor was a bit strong and the dessert tasted mostly like macadamia nuts and strawberries rather than ice cream. The ambience was nice though and even though we were not able to get a table, we had a nice view of the chefs' cooking. We would come here again since the menu changes based on what's in season. It was my second time at Pietramala and it was my boyfriend's first time and it won't be our last. :)

If you're looking for vegan breakfast options at Reading Terminal Market, Luhv Vegan Deli is…read moredefinitely worth checking out. I was so excited to see a fully plant-based spot with a few breakfast choices since that can be hard to find while traveling. I ordered the Sausage, Egg & Everything Bagel. I really appreciated having a hearty, completely plant-based breakfast, and it definitely hit the spot. I'd give it a 7.5/10. While it wasn't my favorite vegan breakfast I've ever had, it was satisfying, flavorful, and a great option if you're exploring Reading Terminal and want something quick without compromising your diet. I'm always happy to support businesses that make vegan food more accessible, and I'd absolutely stop by again to try some of their other menu items.
