    I had a truly outstanding and memorable meal at Fork. The evening exceeded my expectations. My server, whose name I unfortunately did not catch, was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and preparations and origins of ingredients as well as being very personable and attentive. The menu is not especially large but each item is so creatively and carefully thought out and so beautifully crafted that it’s really quite difficult to make a choice. The bluefish rillettes would have been excellent  even without the salmon skin chips served with it but together they became something special and very unusual, showcasing the best of bluefish. I won’t get into a big description of the lamb chop presentation but again, it was unusual and outstanding.  finally, if the pretzel cannoli is on the menu, order it. It is in no way like either a pretzel or a cannoli, involves no ricotta and no deep fried shell, and is again such a beautifully balanced and creative dish with its hint of rhubarb coulis, caramelized sugar shell, and lovely not too dark chocolate mousse plus a savory touch of pretzel crumbs that I will be thinking about it for a long time.

    The experience at Fork was superior and evocative of service of one receives from a family owned establishment. Richard was well versed in his craft and guided me through my meal with the deft hand of a seasoned professional. I will make it a point to return to Fork on my next trip to Philly.

    I went to a variety of different restaurants in my life (high-end, super-popular low-end, secret gems, etc.) and at Fork, our family had the perfect dinner. Every single menu item that we ordered were made with very creative twists and ingenuity. We could taste the thought process that chef and the entire team went through in order to make that dish. None of the items were cliche items or ordinary. Every single menu item was a work of a genius, and the fact that the dishes kept on getting better and better throughout the course was the kicker. Our waitress was great and all the other members of the staff worked as one. It was like that scene from the Ratatouille but in a non-Disney animated, real world kind of way. Thank you. We'll be back for more.
