The Best Salads In Philadelphia Right Now - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"The fennel salad at this South Philly Sicilian restaurant costs about the same as one of their pastas. That logic adds up to us, given you can suss out the quality of the produce and it's just as exciting to eat as cavatelli. Strips of crisp fennel and onion slivers get topped with parsley confetti and lemon vinaigrette. It sounds simple, but the clean, citrus flavors are notably amped up. So you’ll still have room for the whole fish, agrodolce chicken, and maybe three glasses of wine. You won't struggle to find reservations for Irwin's, but your finger may cramp reloading Salvatore's Counter reservations page for those coveted four seats. They drop the reservations during the first of the month. We suggest setting a reminder or slipping a seat on the end to see if the chef will serve you anyway." - candis mclean, alison kessler
