Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in University City

Delicious lunch of Nicoise Salad, chicken liver parfait , mushroom soup, and profiteroles. Lunch delicious as usual. Service very good. Bar seats full at 2pm, reservations recommended. Take out order of cheeseburger was missing the caramelized onions. Tomato and lettuce are not automatically included on burger and must be requested if desired.

Great crème brûlée for dessert. Outstanding mushroom omelet. Steak Asian salad Was good but the steak was a bit tough

Really cool spot atop a pretty new skyscraper. Great views of downtown Philadelphia and the surrounding area, but the food was just as good! Will definitely go back on my next visit for drinks and dinner!

Wow! I walked past this resto so many times, and, from the outside, it looked average. However, as soon as you walk in the front door, you know that you are some place special. The ambience is great, but, more importantly, the food was exquisite. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was worth every penny. To start, we ordered rolls with chive butter, and, for an entrée, had pumpkin ravioli with walnuts, apples, onions, and ricotta cheese--yum! The food was so good that we decided to order dessert, an apple tartan which was equally delicious. On top of that, our server was excellent, very helpful, and friendly. You have to try this place at least once!

One of the best meals I’ve had recently from the mouth watering biscuits to the tuna tartare and of course the perfectly tender and deliciously seared filet. Amazing!! And for as busy as it was we didn’t seem to have issues hearing the whole table talk. Jeremy and the team took great care of us.
