"East Passyunk’s Townsend is dark, romantic, and has more candles than the set of a vampire movie. The first-floor bar is always popping, but it's the upstairs dining room that works especially well for a swanky date night (and they’ll even customize special occasion menus for you). From roasted striped bass served with a creamy potato pavé to tender pork belly, the menu here is what you might expect from a nice French-ish spot." - candis mclean, alison kessler
