   Went with three friends for "Friendsgiving" and the food was exceptional! Were wowed with each of the five family-style courses that arrived. Standouts: 1) burratta, baby artichoke, sesame, warm caper vinaigrette, 2) sun-dried tomato panzanella 3) grilled dorade with sorrel pesto and tapenade 4) eggplant bonifacio with garlic breadcrumbs and tomme 5) pumpkin cake with citrus mascarpone and butternut squash marmalade. Cocktails were outstanding too. Service was warm, friendly, and knowledgable. Atmosphere was lovely and want the hotel bar to be a regular place to meet friends. Thank you to the whole team for making your home in Fishtown!

   The food was so good! I was apprehensive at first bc I didn’t even know what half the words were on the menu. But after googling a few words the menu was less daunting. Everything just had such wonderfully intense flavors. Even things I don’t typically like, like artichokes were made so uniquely delicious. I had swordfish skewers over walnut pesto with a zesty Greek yogurt and it was excellent. I asked the bartender what special cocktail I should try when my go-to is an old fashioned. He recommended an Islay of Beauty which was a pear/orange interpretation of an old fashioned and was fantastic.

   I wrote my entire review on yelp. Because open table doesn’t have enough characters to support how AMAZING it was. Bastia is the best restaurant I’ve been to in a very long time and I have eaten at all of the Philly spots. All of them.

   Our server was incredible, my partner has food allergies and she felt really safe and also the kitchen made a plate of carrots and dip in place of the bread service for her. The food was outstanding with our favorite being the grapefruit and burrata dish.

   Had dinner, then drinks at the separate bar afterwards in the atrium. Such a special place. When we left, we realized we'd lost track of time and space, hardly believing we'd been in Fishtown the whole time.

   We celebrated our 19th anniversary at Bastia, and it was perfect! The cozy atmosphere, amazing food, and thoughtful staff made the night very special. Everything—from the cocktails to the beautifully crafted dishes—was spot on. Can’t wait to go back!

    We had a great experience at Bastia. The food was delicious and the service was awesome. Favorites were the tuna crudo and amberjack crudo special (the lemon drop peppers were so well integrated!!). I enjoyed my orata entree and my partner loved his entrecote. Also, thank you for the carrot crudite with delicious tahini during the first course since I am gluten free! My only note would be that I wished the BTG wines were a little higher quality and that the pours were standardized to 5 oz. Thank you for a lovely meal and experience!!
