Restaurants near Iron Works Park

Cannot say enough good things. It is a must for every visit to Philly and every Christmas morning each year. The service is above and beyond, food is exceptional and the atmosphere is so special.

I have been a fan of Carlucci's Waterfront for some years now, but I must say that the Meal for the Feast of the Seven Fishes was the best we have had there. I don't know if there is a new chef or what, but it seemed as if the whole meal was elevated a step. The marinated Seafood salad was superb, and baby octopus was superlative.( I ordered two appetizers of the baby octopus to take home!) Our Server, Laurie, was exemplary, as was the team of busboys(?) scurrying to replace water, butter, napkins, etc. Even the cannoli was better, with small chunks of chocolate and not overly sweet like so many. We were VERY happy with our Christmas Eve there!!!

We are repeat visitors - this is now our “go to” spot for many reasons. We love to come here to watch the Eagles. We also bring out of town friends here for meals. We love to play trivia here on Thursday nights. We also celebrate our family milestones here. Why? Because they always provide best in class service coupled with high quality food that is decently priced. This place ALWAYS delivers. We are so glad to have a local spot that hits high marks every time we visit. P.S. get the free Captain’s Club card. Its perks are actually worth having it!

Always enjoy eating at Robin’s Nest. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. The food is great!

The perfect spot for wine lovers and foodies alike! I visited Vino 61, and it’s safe to say this place has quickly become my go-to for a great night out. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and just the right mix of cozy and upscale. The wine selection is incredible—everything from classic favorites to unique bottles you won’t find anywhere else. The staff is so knowledgeable, helping us find the perfect pairings for the dishes we tried. Speaking of food, the tapas menu is to die for! The special last night was a burrata salad with arugula, fig jam, and crispy prosciutto - complete standout—every bite was heavenly. It’s clear that a lot of thought and care went into every detail of this place, from the decor to the menu to the service. If you’re looking for a spot to relax, catch up with friends, or even celebrate a special occasion, Vino 61 is it! Highly recommend!
