10 Best French Restaurants in Philadelphia
"The eatery features neon colored booths lit from within, wavy bamboo walls and ceilings, and funky little tables in the lounge that give the place a super stylish, modern atmosphere. You may recognize chef Morimoto from his Iron Chef days, or even from Nobu in NYC. The menu includes a number of entrees, including several dishes from Nobu, but for a truly unique Morimoto experience, you must order the Omakase."
"There's a lot to choose from besides sushi at Starr Restaurants’ long-running Morimoto, including hot entrees and standout desserts, but if ever there was a time to go the omakase route ($90 for 38 bites), this is it. Cheaper options (like a $45 package) and a la carte sushi are available as well. Call for pickup or order delivery on Caviar or DoorDash."
"This is the flagship restaurant of renowned chef Masaharu Morimoto, and he offers creative takes on traditional Japanese and Western dishes. Featuring sushi, steaks, and a variety ..."
"Buddakan is an award-winning restaurant from Steven Starr that serves exotic Pan-Asian cuisine in a spectacular setting. Opened in 1998 and part of Steven Starr’s dining empire, Buddakan is housed in a former post office with soaring ceilings and striking décor, including a shimmering waterfall and a 10-foot-tall candle-bedecked gilded Buddha statue. The menu features modern Asian-fusion cuisine with signature dishes like wasabi-crusted filet mignon and Malaysian spicy lobster, and the cuisine is accompanied by an extensive selection of global wines, craft beers, and classic cocktails."
"It’s been 20 years since Stephen Starr opened his modern Asian mainstay Buddakan in Old City. A 16-foot-tall golden Buddha sets the scene in the swanky restaurant, which is known for its edamame dumplings, pork buns, and Kobe beef satay. The kitchen has been fusing together Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, and Indian cuisine in elegant ways since before Asian fusion was cool."

"The upscale, but casual barbecue joint is worthy of a stop on your travels. The tender brisket and pulled pork are cured and smoked overnight. Thankfully, sandwiches come with a side of fries and coleslaw, because the appetizers and sides here are a highlight."
"This classic 24-hour diner opened in Northeast Philly back in 1932. It has undergone a few changes since then, but today the Mayfair Diner remains a pure 1950s-era throwback for chicken croquettes, creamed chipped beef, and thick slices of pie."

"Gray and bunkerish on the outside, comfy and welcoming on the inside, with a 100-year-old bar and an attached bottle shop (Tinys), the Lunar Inn is like a study in what would happen if you assembled a multidisciplinary dream team of industry pros and let them all loose in a neighborhood in transition with the goal of creating the perfect bar. So whether you think “perfect” means PBR and a plate of chicken wings or a tofu banh mi and a glass of natty wine, Lunar Inn is it. 3124 Richmond Street, Port Richmond."
"One of the standard-bearers of the gay nightlife scene, this Gayborhood club offers show tunes in the Piano Bar seven days a week for those taking a break from boogying. Showtunes also take center stage at the second-floor Ascend nightclub every Sunday, though disco, karaoke, DJs and a Wednesday ladies night populate the weekly calendar. Considered one of the most welcoming and least pretentious gay bars in town, T.O.C. also serves a full tavern menu in the downstairs Tavern Restaurant should you get hungry either before or after arriving."
"It’s good to have a place like Tavern on Camac in your pocket. It draws a big, loud, fun crowd; pours the drinks strong; and shakes the dust from the rafters with show tunes, Broadway standards and pop hits. There’s also dancing upstairs, for those after a more raucous night."
"The Moshulu lands on this list not for its fine dining restaurant, which has long drawn out-of-towners to dine on the world’s oldest and largest four-masted tall ship, but for its fresh and fun outdoor space. The Deck — open May to September — is known for its frozen wine pops, DJ nights, fireplaces with S’mores kits, elaborate ice cream concoctions, and fitness events.
