Best Restaurants with a Vibrant Bar Scene in Northern Liberties

We had a great meal at Talula’s Garden. Interesting selection of cheeses on the cheese board, the pork chop was excellent and the broccoli and cabbage side dish was a stand out. Portions are extremely generous. Excellent service from the staff. We also enjoyed the beet salad, the salmon, the cucumber salad and the baklava ice cream and would recommend any of those dishes as well. Seems as though you can’t go wrong!

I have been wanting to get to Amada for a while. It was really a nice experience. My wait staff person was really helpful - recommended a great wine and what he liked on the menu. Service overall was excellent. The recommended wine as really enjoyable - just what my palate enjoys. The food was Scrumptious - i loved the rellenos and the patatas. Had a few bites of the basque cheesecake and then had to wrap it for home. I will come back and bring a friend or two.

The Tuna Crudo and the Old City roll are a couple of my favorites. Also, to Torro is really good.

As always, this place does not disappoint! It’s like coming home and we love it!! Food- decor- ambiance and service- always impeccable!!

First visit to A.Kitchen and it was a great experience from start to finish. Sat at the chef's counter where we watched our chef juggle the lunch crowd by himself with a smile and great skill. We had a glass of wine from the small but well-selected list and a specialty cocktail. Great start. One server for the small room but she was so nice and attentive despite the challenge. Opened with the Chickpea Panisse. A unique taste of delicately fried chickpeas, not a falafel ball, but a relative over tahini and charred veggies. Large steak frites came with huge steakhouse fries, perfectly grilled as ordered. Branzino was a filet grilled to absolute perfection with tiny veggies all around. One chance for a first impression and A.Kitchen over delivered.
