Pod, Stephen Starr’s Restaurant, Is Closing After Nearly 25 Years in Philly - Eater Philly

"Pod was a futuristic restaurant located in University City, Philadelphia. Known for its Space Age dining room and sushi conveyor belt, it was a popular spot for its interactive dining experience. Over the years, it evolved from a sushi spot to a pan-Asian restaurant, then to a Korean concept as Kpod, and finally back to a Japanese restaurant and izakaya." - Emma Orlow
