We are big fans of Osushi and this was our first time at the Wayne location. The Shishito peppers and special rolls were delicious. Service was excellent and the space is lovely.

The crowd size was perfect for a buffet. The food was delicious. The servers were very nice. Full bar was great. Comedians were very fun. Especially Missy. The other two should have read their audience a little better. Will definitely go back for other events.

This was not our first visit to 118 North but possibly one of our most enjoyable. We decided to check out the happy hour for the first time and found it much more relax than when we were there for ticketing concerts. The concerts were enjoyable , but often crowded. I think our favorite evening was when Adam Ezra was there. The drinks and the food are always top-notch, and we did decide to become members.

About the restaurant

From the people that brought you Trattoria Carina, Pub & Kitchen and The Diving Horse comes their newest restaurant, Carina Sorella.

Carina Sorella is a casual neighborhood Italian restaurant with a focus on delicious and approachable food in a bright, vibrant atmosphere. Our menu is built around classic dishes - Spaghetti and Meatballs, Cacio e Pepe, Caesar Salad, Chicken Parmesan - but we surround that core of dishes with seasonal, chef driven specialties.

The Bryn Mawr location will include the addition of a pizza oven and a full bar, building on the smaller footprint of the existing location in Philadelphia, Trattoria Carina.

We loved the use of the space, the decor and especially the plantings outside the half-moon windows. Service was wonderful with all the little touches you don't get much anymore like crumbing the table, filling your water glass and not forgetting about you once you've gotten your entree. Everyone was very pleasant. Overall, the food was very good, especially the arancini and the swordfish The only problem was the noise- it's extremely loud.

Panache Woodfired Grill

Blue Bell

About the restaurant

Over the past few years, the tract of Montgomery County between Horsham and Blue Bell has become something of a hot spot for exciting new restaurants. Thanks to Habib Troudi, it’s about to get one more in the form of Panache Wood Fire Grill. Carved out of the building that had been home to L’Angolo Blue, an Italian restaurant that closed earlier this year, Panache is based on a “simple concept,” as Troudi says, offering thin-crust Neapolitan-style pizzas cooked in a wood-burning, coalfired oven, as well as prime steaks, seafood and other new American cuisine. Once complete, the space will have two bars, one of which will also house the massive 10,000-pound oven needed to crisp up those pizzas and cook other dishes in castiron skillets.
