Fresh, delicious food in a relaxing setting in the museum. It was a perfect place to rest and replenish before looking at more art. We liked the offer of mocktails since we didn't feel like alcohol at lunchtime.

This is a small but interesting place, and the Gehry details are evident in the curved edges of the marble top tables, service items like coffee/tea cups and cream pitchers, and the interesting curved beam grid that’s suspended over the room.

Every thing was lovely. We asked the server for advice to order. With good suggestions we ordered 2 small plates and a salad . They split the small dishes. As we were eating the small plates, we realized that we wouldn’t be able to eat anymore. He cancelled the salad. Food was delicious, new combination of tastes. Wonderful celebration of end of treatment.

A great experience at the Stir restaurant. I visited the museum around lunch time to enjoy the meal first. Tried 3 different dishes within the past week.The food was meticulous every time . Had the best seared Salmon yesterday. Loved the relaxing ambiance and open kitchen but I was hesitant to approach the chef as he seemed very busy. Highly recommend. Compliments to the Chef!

Two of us shared a delicious salad and ricotta toast. Kitchen divided the portions for us, which we really appreciated. Wait staff were helpful and service was prompt. Flat white coffee excellent. Overall an excellent experience and I will return for lunch on my next visit to the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Sad to know Chef Mike has left. The menu he created is still fantastic. The quiche is the best in town. Looking forward to the next chef to keep this a wonderful place to dine, whether you are visiting the Museum or not.
