• Asian • Old City

Stephen Starr’s Buddakan is a spectacular restaurant featuring exotic flavors of modern Asian cuisine with creativity and drama. Bon Appetit notes, "The mostly white space is striking, with a lit-from-within communal table in the middle of the room, a waterfall & a ten-foot, candle-bedecked Buddha. The religious icon watches over hip customers indulging in pan-Asian cuisine that far surpasses the fare usually found at hot spots like this." Newsweek reports, "Design also serves as a signifier for cuisine. You walk into Buddakan, one of the hottest new restaurants in Philadelphia, past a shimmering waterfall & Japanese river stones & you say to yourself, 'ginger-miso everything' even before you see the magnificent 10-foot Buddha dominating the dining room." Named one of “America's Top 50 Restaurants" by Travel & Leisure and 'Top Restaurant for Fun' by Gourmet, Buddakan has become one of the country's most talked about restaurants.

• Cambodian • Bella Vista

Booked 2 times today

Mawn is a noodle house with “no rules,” and the first restaurant for Chef Phila Lorn and his wife Rachel, who bring with them close to 20 years of experience in Philly’s restaurant scene. Phila, pronounced “Pee La,” broken English for Philadelphia, is a first-generation Cambodian-American chef. The first in his family to be born here, his parents and siblings came to Philadelphia as refugees in 1985 after surviving the war in Cambodia.Mawn, which means “chicken” in Khmer, the Cambodian language, represents more than one thing. To Phila, chicken was at every meal growing up, and to his parents, chicken represented peacetime. During the war and genocide of the Cambodian people, there was mostly only what was found in nature to eat, including rice and salt. If there was chicken, it meant no war. At the end of that dark time, recipes were lost, and culture was wiped out, but through survival, a new authenticity was born.

Nice ambiance for date night. Excellent service, delicious food. The Porterhouse for two was a great choice, cooked to perfection. We enjoyed the new crab cake, Brussel sprouts, and hash browns. The cocktails were lovely.

Exciting atmosphere. Duck was succulent. Service staff was attentive but interuptive: a short pause to be noticed prior to barging into a conversation distinguishes good service from great servive.

Absolutely delicious food packed with flavor. Every dish we ordered was perfectly done. The papaya salad was delicious and a must try - who says that about a SALAD. The marinated beef skewer melted in your mouth. The noodles were of course a stand out! I'd probably skip the crab stir fry. It was good, but not great like everything else I tried. And make sure to save a bite of room for the rice pudding. It s was all phenomenal

Food and service was great as always, my only complaint - we had requested a special table, we come here once a year for a birthday and they did not accommodate our request, and the table remained empty for the entire duration that we were there.
