Celeb chef Jose Garces' stylish American hot spot offering an ambitious tasting menu.
"The ever-evolving menu at Volver is inspired by the culinary adventures of Chef Jose Garces. If the convenience of being located in the heart of the Kimmel Cultural Campus doesn’t convince you to make a reservation, you must check out its special pre-theater prix fixe option, which includes two courses and dessert." - George Banks-Weston
"Inside the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, Jose Garces’ Volvér has gone through a few conceptual changes in the last five years, but it remains one of the most interesting dining experiences around. These days, the stylish, glass-enclosed restaurant serves as chef Garces’ test kitchen to develop new menu items for all of his restaurants. Hamachi tartare, ramen with Iberico ham, veal hanger steak, and an eggshell filled with chocolate custard and salted caramel are a few of the dishes on the latest version of the eight-course, $95 tasting menu. The wine pairing is $65. An a la carte menu is also available." - Sarah Maiellano
"Last month, Volver, the swank restaurant at the Kimmel that got attention when it opened in 2014 for selling tickets instead of taking reservations, was given a more casual tweak. The restaurant used to be tasting menu only; now there’s an a la carte menu too, plus a shorter tasting menu." - Rachel Vigoda
