Restaurants near Witherspoon Building

We love Estia before the Orchestra. There is a strong commitment from waitstaff and kitchen to getting us out on time while also allowing us to enjoy a relaxing delicious dinner (6:00-6:15 arrival before an 8:00 concert). Food was delicious, as always. Estia is a bit pricey, but it is a dollar well spent. Can be noisy. When reserving, request a quiet corner table.

First time here and OM GOSH it was AMAZING!!!! The steak was perfect, the seafood fresh, and the SUSHI was out of this world!!!! The drink Berries bubbles was so to perfection that 2 was not enough bit then again I had to be careful haha!!! Now as for the staff and ambience, I could not ask for a better place. My man Marcus (hope I spelled that correct) was unbelievably amazing. So professional, amazing smile and just so welcoming. Thank you Marcus for making my birthday very, very special!!!

El Vez is always a must do in Philly and NYC, it’s that good! We stick with the Tacos Al Carbon for 2 with the steak, and a side of black beans and rice. Don’t mess with perfection!! We used to do the pitcher of margaritas which is more economical than single glasses- you get about 5 drinks from the pitcher. The problem is that you sometimes end up forcing yourself to drink more lol I know right? They are fairly stirring and let’s just say I drank more than I should have once- and although good I don’t remember part of the night. So now we stuck to individual glasses of margaritas! This time our waitress Kayleigh was excellent! She is one of the best. Every time we have dined in the Philly location we have never had a bad experience!

John our server and Matt our busboy were amazing! Food was incredible as always.

Excellent experience, starting with delicious drinks at the bar, and carrying through to a wonderful dinner. Service was also terrific, with special kudos to our waiter, Finn.
