Restaurants near Frances Ellen Watkins Harper House

Exceptional!! Everything from the food to the service was simply wonderful. The menu rotates so i had very different mains from my first visit this summer. Truly a gem in a city that is known for great food. Amazingly inexpensive given the quality of food as it’s BYOB and the prices are reasonable. Will go back!!

I have had the pleasure of dining at Fiorella's several times before, both in the downstairs dining area and with their pasta club dinner series. This was the first time, however, we visited with an 8 month old. Friends of ours were in town from California, and we really wanted to show them an example of a dinner that makes us appreciate Philadelphia so much. The staff was incredibly patient and accommodating with our young pasta lover. The noise level and other diners that evening made our experience feel simply like you were eating in a friend's living room. We're grateful for Fiorella's in many ways, and always suggest this restaurant for smaller, more intimate gatherings for friends and family.

We had an excellent evening at Saloon. From beginning to end our dining experience was wonderful. Our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and the dessert a great way to end our meal. A bonus was valet parking, which made our evening so much easier. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

Our table was ready for us at the reserved time. Excellent service, all of the food brought to our table was appealing in presentation, at the right temperature, and very tasty. The manager (owner?) was very interested in our satisfaction with our experience. This was my first visit, and I will definitely be back.

Loved this restaurant 15 yrs ago and haven’t been back in at least 6… but it was just as good as we remembered and so happy it is still a staple in town. As a Cuban American, it’s so close to my family’s recipes.
