First time at this restaurant and it exceeded expectations! Homemade sodas were interesting and refreshing. The burger was well prepared and the fries were well cooked and seasoned. The desserts were excellent - chocolate torte and apple cobbler.

First time at Moshulu and definitely won’t be our last! The ambiance and decor were such a vibe, and we loved our window table. The hostesses were so welcoming, and our server Michael was fantastic! We’ll definitely be asking for him next time. The food was delicious, too. We had the wagyu burger with truffle fries and the Waldorf salad with chicken, and both were great. Overall, a 10/10 experience from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back!

• Contemporary American • Center City

Lived up to the hype. The raw bar is worth the trip and the wine menu measures up. But the real star is in the thoughtful preparation—every dish that came out includes a surprising flavor, texture, and delightful plating. We had so much fun talking through the dishes as they came out, sharing communally at the table, and soaking in the recommendations from our truly lovely server. It is a little loud in the restaurant though, so keep that in mind for the older diners in the party.
