   Excellent higher end farm to table type restaurant. Particularly recommend the carrots and chocolate lavendar pie from the May 2022 menu. Great service.

   Very rarely does a restaurant actually make you feel special when you have a special occasion. The team at Fork executes precisely on all fronts. The food, the service and the overall attention to detail was a joy to experience. Thank you all !

   Great food at a great place made and served by great people! We had a wonderful diner, partly because of the great advice from the lady that helped us at our table. The duck in the charcuterie as well as the duck in the entree are amazing!!!! Thank you for a great diner!

    I have visited Fork several times before, though not recently. The experience is certainly pleasant, but I have never quite understood its stellar buzz. This week's visit did not change my opinion. The service was excellent, and they have done a good job about making their outdoor dining space welcoming and comfortable. The food was tasty, creative, and well-prepared, but not incredible considering the price tag. There are other, equally attractive options in Old City without the overinflated sense of self-worth.

    Wonderful attentive staff. Each and every individual was so kind and genial. I greatly appreciated the service. The food was outstanding. Finally a restaurant that doesn’t flood the food with salt. A variety of small plates were a perfect start to the meal, yummy and healthful. We had the tofu entree and two fish dishes which were tasty and plated works of art. The coconut custard merengue dessert was outstanding with so many different textures and flavors. Love the decor, the open working kitchen and the beautifully painted walls. Lovely overall.

    Very slow service. Seating was puzzling. This place requires proof of vaccination but then seats all guests next to one another despite the restaurant being less than 1/3 full. Vaccination important. Social distancing not so much. Go figure. Food was good and our server was very attentive.

    The positives: The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was pretty good. The environment was relaxed. The manager was flexible on a few issues that arose (see below). It seems a great place for a business lunch (though it might be noisy if crowded - it was uncrowded for this Thursday lunch). The main negative is that the lunch menu is very limited - far too limited for me. It was reduced basically to a cobb salad or a very expensive hamburger. That limitation alone would keep me away in the future. There were a few wrinkles, both of which might impact one's decision to go. First, the website promised that parking could be had at the Bourse garage at a reduced rate with validation. That was incorrect. It cost me and my friend each an additional $16 (though the manager comped our sodas and a dessert as an alternative.) So, be aware that there is no reduced rate parking available. Second, I got an email less than three hours before my reservation that proof of vaccination would be needed. I was already en route and had traveled 150 miles already, and my friend was coming from 50 miles away. Luckily, I had mine on my phone, and I think the manager just took my friend's word. I don't recall seeing any such notice prior to then, and I knew that Philadelphia had already cancelled its mask mandate. So that could have been a problem. Overall, however, the experience was positive.

    John our server was absolutely pleasant and hospitable! The food at fork is the very essence of Contemporary American cuisine and the consistency is what makes Fork a Philadelphia staple when it comes to delicious food, beautiful presentation, gracious service paired with a humble elevated ambiance! Thank you Ellen for always being so gracious and I look forward to sharing Fork with many more guests to come!

    We enjoyed an fabulous meal at Fork. We chose to sit outside because of COVID and so it was a bit noisy on Market Street between 3rd and 4th. Inside, the noise level is very pleasant. Our server Sasha is absolutely first rate. She guided us through our choices of cocktail, appetizers and entrees. We chose the salad and scallop appetizers, both were uniquely and really well flavored. For our entree, we selected the special trout for two. It was pan seared and relatively uncooked inside. It was so tender and wonderful, my mouth is watering now as I describe it. The custard dessert was very good. The coffee is from a local Philadelphia roaster and was really good. The price is not cheap, but for a special occasion, this is a really nice choice.

    Really outstanding one of the best fish meals ever/ whole local grilled trout, prepared in a unique way w capers olives, kale carrots. So good. Plus completely allergy friendly this was GF and prepared DF for us as well, and was much appreciated. Everything on the menu has a farm to table - fresh super healthy vibe. Great service and a warm welcome when we arrived.

    The food was remarkable and reasonably priced for the exceptional quality of the food. The service was outstanding and no detail was overlooked but still friendly and casual so nothing felt uptight. We went on a Thursday night and it was crowded so definitely make reservations far-ish in advance. Have already recommended Fork to a few friends. I'm of course inviting myself to join them so I have more excuses to go back.

    Fork is generally a good choice to make. However, their food (at lunch) was not good at all. Two of us had the Cobb salad and it was anything but a traditional Cobb salad. The greens were really white lettuce and mostly the butt end of it, the egg was only a half of an egg, the bacon was a measly 5 to 6 bacon bits (not real bacon and after one forkful there was no further bacon taste), the avacado was not even a half of an avacado so there was barely any avacado flavor and the cheese was switched from blue cheese to cheddar but barely a teaspoon of cheese. All in all, extremely disappointed for the two of us who ordered it. The other two people in our group also complained about the sparse amount of food in their plates. And for the discounted food the price was full price. Would not recommend going to Fork
