Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Anthony Bonett

From the OpenTable editors: One of Philadelphai's most unique dining experiences, Moshulu brings diners aboard the deck of a more-than-century-old ship that's been docked on the Delaware for upscale seafood since 1996.

    I thought their drink pour was light! The manhatten glass was half filled. At these prices they should be filled.

    My girlfriend and I came here to celebrate my promotion at work. The experience was everything I hoped it would be and more! The food was incredible and our server, Amelia, was phenomenal. She deserves a raise!! WONDERFUL customer service all around. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you for such an awesome evening!

    Traveled all the way from the Washington, DC area to dine with family in Philly and was eager for Sunday brunch. What started off as a great experience ended with us not getting our meal until over an hour after being seated. In a party of 4, the first course never arrived for me and another guest (smoked salmon dish), the second course came out first and was cold (shrimp and grits). The manager who eventually removed those items from the bill was misinformed and the waitress lied to us about why our meal was delayed. I left hungry after sending back the cold meal and left only having eaten the bread and a picking from my significant others plate. Not sure if I'm willing to try this place again. After paying $20 for parking, I definitely didn't feel like I got our moneys worth.

    Beautiful spot! The service and food excellent, but it's a bit noisy, and the wait for food a bit long.

    The atmosphere was romantic and relaxing. The service was top-notch, from start to finish. Attentive, knowledgeable, polite, and pleasant are just a few ways to describe all employees you may encounter. And the food was absolutely amazing.

    I loved the unique atmosphere of this place. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The baked Brie in puffed pastry first course was simply divine and the cocktails creative as well as delicious. Main meals were scrumptious and the service impeccable.

    It was a very busy night being Mother’s Day. However, it took an hour for our food to arrive after ordering and the appetizer was just warm instead of hot. Otherwise a good experience. Great ambience. Worth going.
