I visit here everytime I visit Philly. It’s a great spot, good energy and most importantly dining alone is heaven here. The open kitchen is one of my favourites. Great vibes, loud music, delicious food, tasty and considered drinks - what’s not to love!

We were celebrating a bday. When they called to confirm, I asked for a specific dessert to be delivered along with dessert menus, which they did. It was our first visit and a much fancier restaurant than where we usually go, but they treated us so well and made us feel welcome and the food was amazing!

Lindsay is a rockstar (and very patient with me!). She totally deserves a raise!! If you are looking for a special, unique, gem of a place, where cocktails are rightly elevated and revered, go to Midnight and the Wicked.
