Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Norristown

Am a repeat diner to Gaucho’s Prime since it first opened. I’ve been back a few times, including for lunch and found the quality, service, and atmosphere consistently excellent. I would prefer coming back to this over and over. The wine list was updated which and it was of a good value as well for accompaniment. I do hope their success continues at this level as I enjoy returning.

We continually say that we believe Blackfish is the best restaurant outside of center city and can go head to head with most any. The lady had the oysters - the lemon 'foam' on top, oysters in the shell but 'free' so that you can just slide them in right from the shell leaving the foam in tact, were fresh and delightful. She followed that with the wild mushroom ravioli. Toasted home panko breadcrumbs and delightful sauce, all rich with mushroom flavor was also wonderful. I had the scallop more or less ceviche-type appetizer with thin scallop and radish slices in a marvelous orange and citrus sauce, finely diced onion and cucumber and fresh herbs - it was the best appetizer I have had there and I love the smoke salmon and quail egg and the brussels sprout salad (don't laugh until you have one - they too are delicious). I had the duck breast. Butternut squash, some home-made cranberry relish, another puree of something that was rich and tasty along with a brown a-jus gravy. It was really good. I could only eat half of it - quite large, but wonderful flavors. Blackfish continues to be at the top of our favorites list! Not to be missed. G

Excellent. Waited came to table because he read my shellfish allergy, and identified the items that were dangerous, I was so thankful and impressed that they took the time to explain- it made my dining experience most enjoyable. Food was delicious as always

The service there was exceptional. We can't say enough about our server.

This place is incredible!!! Delicious (and unique) food, excellent service, and the best whiskey list around. Highly recommend!
