The 15 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Philly - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"So, no, Casablanca near Passyunk Avenue is not brought to you by the people behind Marrakesh. There are similar tasting menus, the same warm, dinner party-like atmosphere, and they both look like they were designed by someone who went to interior design school in North Africa. But only at Casablanca can you go for their vegetable salad, spicy chicken, and sweet baklava $30 tasting menu and throw in extras like creamy hummus and chicken shawarma over rice. The large menu gives the Mediterranean restaurant the versatility to work for a lunch with friends and an exciting date where you’ll share a couple bottles and want to order everything in sight (you should). Plus, the marketplace area means you can take unique spices to go." - alison kessler, candis mclean
