I love Thanaal. Every dish was delicious. We ordered chicken tikka masala, channa masala, vegetable biryani and tandoori naan. The chicken tikka masala was tender and succulent. The vegetable biryani was very well seasoned. The waitress was attentive and efficient. Overall, this restaurant is a great addition to Philly scene. I would like to see more South Indian items on the menu. More

Lobster was supposed to be out of the shell but wasn't and was so attached that it could not be removed from the shell. The waitress specifically instructed that the lobster be out of the shell. The manager removed the lobster from the bill. Despite this, we like Davio's and will be back when we next visit Philadelphia. More

Always a great meal for a great value. The dolmades are the best I have ever had, and the special lamb shank stew was beyond excellent. All of the desserts are calorie worthy, however, the of lemon mousse is my little obsession! More

Our server was lovely, when the fried cow was too salty she had them prepare one with no added salt and it came out perfectly. It was my husband’s birthday and so I took him to one of his favorite places and our server gave him another glass of wine and a chocolate cigar with candles for his birthday it was truly delightful.

I have been to Cooperage a handful of times and it has always delivered in regards to the cuisine, customer service, and beverage selection. This past Friday I invited a few friends to celebrate my sister in law's birthday. I was able to reserve a table with no issues. I was able to sit at my table before the whole party arrived. We were able to order happy hour specials even at our table. The owner also brought 2 free desserts for our party. If you are in the area, you should definitely check it out! I will continue to support this establishment. More

OpenTable Diner -
Small quaint restaurant located in Rittenhouse Square. Portions are large and the service was excellent. We are monthly customers and will be returning more frequently. Lobster ravioli and the chicken marsala were to die for. More
OpenTable Diner -
Overall, the food was solid, but some of the dishes, e.g. the brussel sprouts, were underwhelming. The cauliflower tortelloni was delicious as well as the toasts. Service was very good especially since the restaurant was quite busy. In terms of ambiance, one problem was that the 2-person tables are shoved too close together making it very cramped. Also, they need to consider a covered entryway in winter since every time the restaurant door is opened, diners are exposed to an icy blast. More

We had a great time at South last Wednesday. The performer Geraldine Oliver and her awesome band - Aaron Graves-piano, Dylan Taylor-bass, Tony Day-drums, were just exquisite! Geraldine Oliver was wonderful to listen to and watch. The Concert was very enjoyable. We're both Vegetarians, and unfortunately there's not as many choices for us. We ordered food from their side orders, and my husband couldn't get the kitchen to cook string beans tender enough for him to eat. We sent them back about 3 times, then we finally had them removed from our list. The waitress was very nice, though. More

The open-table reservation system should be more efficient with scheduling reservations for the Jazz Parlor room that is feature at South. I made my reservation and was under the impression that I made it correctly for the Jazz Parlor Room. However, that was not the case upon arrival. So better clarity on the on-line system for reserving is much needed. There should be some training for the servers as well, as my server was not to good at all. She provide zero suggestions, never asked how we were doing once we got our food and had a bit of attitude like she was annoyed with the day. Besides these two issues I enjoyed the experience and am willing to dine here again hopefully with my next visit I have zero to complain about. More
OpenTable Diner -

They were very accommodating to leave out ingrediants or add an ingrediant to their menu items. Nicely paced meal. Food tasted fantastic. Everything seemed homemade. My fish taco's were very fresh and tasted great! Pierogies were fantastic as were the flatbreads. Would recommend! More

We met our party here after the Army Navy football game...ambiance was great, service was great, drinks were spot on, and the bill for 10 didn't break the bank. This is our third year for the game in Philly, and we've been to this restaurant each year...we'll go back again! More

Discover Center City
The whole world should knows that there’s more to the diverse dining scene of Center City than cheesesteaks and hoagies. Israeli, Mexican, Japanese and a melting pot of other cuisines are dished up daily in the shadow of the Liberty Bell. French bistros are becoming as commonplace as Italian delis. If you haven’t tried black truffle pizza, what’s stopping you? Whether it’s a cocoa-cured rack of lamb or a vegan wood-roasted carrot that you’re craving, Center City likely has it. Fine dining establishments and casual rooftop bars co-exist in perfect harmony, and top chefs collaborate rather than compete. By the way, the iconic cheesesteaks and hoagies aren't bad either.
