Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Bala Cynwyd

Another fine dining experience at Honeysuckle. Enjoyed a luscious red cocktail in honor of Juneteenth and had a delicious meal--pickled collard as an amuse bouche, a special bread with butter and compote, hush puppies with thinly sliced country ham (amazing), "black caesar" (a very delicious salad) and the seafood alfredo (with freshly made noodles, lobster, crab, shrimp and more in a delicate creamy sauce--yum, yum, yum!) paired with a pleasant sauvignon blanc, and a dessert (with custard, pickled berries and mini-meringues). Very satisfying and a good value for the quality of the food and service. Food is locally sourced and the experimentation with sauces and fermentation takes things to the next level. Service is very friendly and professional. Ambience is warm (and cool), very inviting. One of the top five restaurants in Phila.

Mid-week lunch saw the restaurant with enough buzz to feel full but not so busy as to feel crazy. The food is really top-notch. My colleague had a salad with salmon, and I had the avocado BLT, which includes a fried egg inside. I wasn't sure it would work, but it was delicious. The side of fries was nicely presented, but more standard fare than the rest of the menu. The highlight of the meal was our server, who was cheerful, fun, and informed. She made the meal better, which is rarely the case with servers.

Our experience was fabulous as always. Our waiter Bill is always so knowledgeable and helpful. It’s true fine dining and the food is outstanding.

Very pleasant restaurant with small but varied menu. We had excellent smash burgers and fries. A little pricey for a casual lunch. Attractive and with a nice vibe - a big improvement in the Philadelphia Museum of Art food offerings.

Excellent food! The space could stand a little updating / refresh.
