- JJessePhiladelphia County •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe were running a bit late due to a storm that had passed through in our area. We called and said we were running late. The staff was quick to tell us no problem to drive safely. We were seated promptly even still after arriving 15 mins late . Service and food was top notch. Enjoyed everything. We will definitely be back again. Thank you Fork staff and chefs for allowing me a great Valentines dinner with my wife.More infoFork - PhiladelphiaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Old City•4.8
