The service was exceptional, the food and drinks were delicious! Our reservation was at 9:30, if you’re looking for a more quiet ambiance I would suggest going later in the night. Definitely will be returning
Lovely birthday dinner. They noted the occasion from the reservation and put a candle in the dessert. Food was delicious and the service couldn’t have been better. Delicious cocktails wine and beer too.
Fond has come back, and we can't tell you how happy we are! We ended up with three appetizers each because they were all so wonderful! Oysters were the best we've had, and generally we like West Coast, but these were Eastern seaboard and could best those West Coast ones with no problem! The chicken liver mousse was ethereal, and the pork country pate was awesome. We ended with the shrimp congee each, and, as usual, Lee's take on congee was great. We look forward to coming back soon.
All of the food was excellent! The staff was so friendly and helpful. The bartender's choice drinks were really well crafted. All in all a great dining experience. Thanks for having us!
Excellent food. Very pleasant service
Lovely experience and ambiance at the chefs table
Fond makes great Old Fashioneds and amazing food. Their chicken breast was perfect.
Sad what happened to this restaurant. Very very small menu, The 3 entrees had nothing to them. Hope to see it bounce back. The online menu not being updated was a little deceiving
As a patron for many years, I was disappointed in the decline in food preparation and the absence of a byob/corkage option.
We enjoyed a wonderful meal for a Birthday celebration! Had the awesome chef’s table which is great for watching the behind the scene action!
Awesome food and cozy, sweet place. The drinks are amazing
Frequent diner at their other restaurant the Dutch. Was not surprised this was just as great. Service, wine, and menu was great!
I love them because they love me. Some of the best food in Philly.
We enjoyed eating outside at Fond. I had the ceviche,braised short rib and blackberry sorbet on lemon cream. Everything was delicious!
Gorgeous spot on Passyunk. We (4 total) sat outside and it was perfect weather. The service was excellent with wine suggestions, and specialty drink creations. The food was delicious and the courses came out at a great pace. I have been here multiple times and I will keep coming back!
They were so attentive to the sidewalk tables. The food was superb and the best I’ve had in 5 months since the pandemic began.
Amazing experience. Adam was phenomenal, explaining the wines when we mentioned we had an interest in learning more about the pairings and where Fond acquired the wines. We had some great discussions about them and he even followed up the next day to answer one of the questions we had asked. 10/10 and we’re heading back just because of the phenomenal service. Excited to support Fond through whatever winter + Covid brings here in Philly.
Can’t speak about ambiance due to curbside COVID restrictions. Only had dessert. Malted Milk Chocolate Ice Cream was amazing. Service was timely. Would definitely go back for dinner. Menu looks great.
Food was absolutely delicious, friendly staff right on passyunk square!
Always excellent...food, service and a nice sidewalk setup! Thank you.
Loved the tasting men
Food was delicious from start to end!!! Can't wait until there is indoor seating to go back!
The most impressive dining experience I had in the month of August; overall.
Excellent food, service, and ambiance! I will definitely return.
Great service with excellent food
Outstanding dinner for two dining outside due to the pandemic. $55 price-fix three-course meal was excellent. All of our choices pleased! our waiter, who was also the bartender, was knowledgable about the short but very good wine list and prepared wonderful cocktails for the two women dining at the next table. I would be glad to go back.
Professional service and great food and wine!
Amazing food & service.
Wonderful littel outside setup, fantastic food and drinks
One of the best meals I have ever had in Philly. Extraordinary food and service.
Thankfully, Fond is back in gear with table service — even if on the sidewalks. For us, Fond has always been about the food and our “outdoor”dining experience was just as pleasant as before covid-19. The 3-course fixed price menu features lots of choice and a terrific range of flavors. Service was attentive and timely. Overall, a wonderful meal and experience.
Great food and service. Tables were well-spaced apart from each other and lovely wait-staff.
Great cocktails and service. The menu left us feeling full and satisfied, we can't wait to go back!
As usual, it was exceptional. It does not seem to matter whether you are dining inside or outside. The outside tables are placed perfectly to keep social distancing and all measures are taken to follow CDC guidelines. Even though it was hot we were very happy to be there to enjoy Lee Styer’s wonderfully executed offerings. Fond never fails to be our favorite place in Philadelphia!
Fond solidified its place as one of my favorite restaurants in Philadelphia this past weekend. I convinced my picky-eater friend to try the chicken liver mousse and he was blown away. Every plate is thoughtful and absolutely delicious. Great, knowledgeable service to boot.
One of my favorite spots in philly. Food is always amazing, drinks are great, impeccable service, and a true neighborhood spot that’s at the same time good enough to travel for.
A Perfect Night Out In Philly!
Fond was perfect from start to finish. They greeted us with masks on and gave us the option of two different seating choices outdoors. We were comfortably spaced and safely apart from other diners and our waitstaff was outstanding. We had perfectly prepared cocktails and a lovely bottle of wine to pair with our three course menu. The food is always beautifully presented, fresh, creative and dream worthy! Get out in Philadelphia and get to Fond for a romantic and special meal.
Nice to have good restaurant food (not out of a box!) again. Thank you.
Amazing food, will be back very soon!
