"Despite the fact that this Philadelphia-born izakaya has a menu the length of a coronation roll, Double Knot doesn’t overcomplicate its food. Our favorite bites here are simple grilled things on skewers, and the sushi is good, too. Ordering a la carte for a group can feel daunting, but five to seven plates per person should result in a satisfying meal. You can also opt for the $68 tasting menu if—and this is very understandable—you simply want to avoid the task of ordering a long list of dishes." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
