Double Knot

Our 15 favorite places in Midtown Village - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Double Knot is one of the first spots that comes to mind when you want to eat in Midtown Village–and not just because it has as much range as Jim Carrey's acting. Hang at the first floor cocktail lounge and sushi bar, or head downstairs to the intimately lit izakaya that looks a bit like Dracula’s dungeons. For a little taste of everything, get the $65 Chef’s Tasting Menu, which includes 10 selections plus dessert. Try the dreamy edamame dumplings, crispy Japanese fried chicken, and finish with larger dishes like the Japanese scallops in an onion ponzu. You need reservations to get into the vampire’s lair, but you can always pop in for sake and hand rolls up top." - candis mclean, alison kessler
