CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014This gem featuring Chef Ben Puchowitz's creative cuisine is a great spot for lunch and dinner. Our favorites include the Cobia, the Long Island Duck Breast, and the Peppermint Ice Cream Sandwich.
Rachel MarcusJanuary 31, 2014One of my favorite Philly meals. The cobia is out of this world, as is the arugula/ricotta salad. Don't miss the incredible desserts!
Philadelphia MagazineJanuary 14, 2013The regular menu is there for those who want to play it safe. The tasting menus exist to please those looking for something more challenging and to give the kitchen space to flex its muscles.
Tracey HackJanuary 25, 2014Great restaurant. Scallops and short ribs is easily one of the best dishes I've had in Philly. The duck was delicious as well.- Philadelphia MagazineAugust 5, 2014The crowd is all ordering the same thing these days: the five-course tasting menu. And once again, why shouldn’t they be? After all, the Foobooz/Philly Mag brain trust more or less told them to. Read more
MarshallApril 20, 2013The servers are super nice, which added to our amazing experience. Definitely get the foie gras for an appetizer and the cheesecake for dessert!
Philly.comAugust 3, 2014The city's contemporary BYOB scene has staked a flag just north of Rittenhouse Square in this charming (albeit noisy) storefront bistro. Read more
Irena BDecember 22, 2012Hands down the best meal in Philly. Every dish was great. Hamachi, fois gras, scallops, pork roulette.

John Paul CzerniawskiOctober 20, 2012The pork shank was unreal. Brussels sprouts, bacon and au jus.. Never can go wrong
Doug AdamsJune 29, 2011The calamari are lightly breaded and slightly salty, in a beautiful cream sauce with lemon, capers, and dill. Yum!
Karin RAugust 12, 2012Try the Butter poached lobster - Pork belly, buttermilk-thyme waffle with fig jus.
- Philadelphia MagazineJanuary 3, 2011If you're having trouble on deciding what to get, try the scallops in lobster “pho” broth. Read more
Chefs FeedAugust 5, 2014Lynn Rinaldi, chef of Paradiso, eats here on her nights off. She loves the Seared foie gras. Read more
James MoralesMay 3, 2013Rebecca the host / manager whatever she is, is awful. Got our reservation wrong, showed her confirmation she said "oh well, leave". Cranky b@$? Shouldn't be in the service industry.

Rob Lendler - 8.0
"Loved their Dorito crusted mozzarella sticks, and great milkshakes!"
Christina Dahl - 8.9
"Phenomenal! Appetizer—whipped goat cheese and ricotta, drizzled with a balsamic reduction and dotted with sweet figs. My entree—the spicy lamb bolognese. I would return in a heartbeat!"
