James Beard award-winning restaurant with tasting menus & cocktails
"Located near Rittenhouse Square, this is one of Philadelphia’s longest-running restaurants and offers a refined tasting menu that helped it earn a spotlight in the first MICHELIN Guide to Philadelphia in 2025." - Julia Eskins
"Friday Saturday Sunday received its first star. Husband and wife duo Chad and Hanna Williams preside over this intimate, seasonal tasting menu upstairs, while downstairs the raucous bar serves some of the best cocktails in the city. The tasting menu costs $185 per person." - Maddy Sweitzer-Lamme
"Transformed by Chad and Hanna Williams from a longtime neighborhood stalwart into one of the country’s most-watched tasting‑menu restaurants, this landmark now carries a Michelin star. Downstairs, the cocktail den Lovers Bar has become a destination in its own right—already a finalist for the James Beard Outstanding Bar award—and that same room now sits within a Michelin‑starred restaurant." - Melissa McCart
"And Wednesday and Thursday. Chef Chad Williams and his wife Hanna, both Philadelphia natives, took over this veritable institution in 2016 and then pivoted to offering a set multicourse menu. It works well, as it allows the chef to provide a balanced, varied and consistent experience to all. Thanks to skilled technique, just the right amount of innovation and an innate understanding of the luxury ingredients he uses, his dishes fill the mouth with flavor and succulence. His delicious crispy sweetbreads will convert any skeptic; quail with pâte plays with texture, and the New York strip is a lesson in expert seasoning. Expect an atmosphere as spirited and enjoyable as the food; there’s also a great cocktail bar on the first floor." - The MICHELIN Guide
"The fine‑dining restaurant’s pastry program brings Michelin‑caliber craft to casual frozen desserts: nightly soft‑serve sundaes created by the pastry chef in the downstairs Lovers Bar pair adventurous flavor combinations (for example, passion fruit soft serve with shallot caramel and tropical fruit crunch) with the precision that defines the tasting‑menu kitchen." - Regan Stephens
