- HHeatherVIPPhiladelphia County •8 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoEverything was fantastic. Lunch specials were great - but we ordered a cup (not a bowl) of French onion soup and it was $16 for a cup. Extremely pricey for a cup of soup.More infoThe Capital Grille - PhiladelphiaPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Center City•4.8
- JJasenDallas - Fort Worth •2 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoWe had a great experience overall. While my wife’s food was cold in the middle, the staff handled the situation promptly and professionally, which we appreciated. One standout moment was their attention to detail. I had noted on the OpenTable app that it was her birthday, and they not only read the note but acknowledged her special day without me having to say a word to the staff. That personal touch made the experience memorable. Despite the small hiccup, we would definitely recommend this place, especially for special occasions.More infoEl VezPrice: Moderate• Mexican / Southwestern• Center City•4.7
- MMarylisPhiladelphia County •22 reviews5.0Dined on 24 Dec 2024This was our first dining experience in Estia and the restaurant did no disappoint! The service, food and ambience during our Dec. 24, 2024 dinner were all one could hope for. Our party of four went for the $40.00 pre-theater menu, which had a generous selection of the restaurant's dishes. Our starters---lamb keftede, octopodi and Romain salad were all tasty, fresh and well-prepared and served in generous portions. Three of us chose the fish of the day---Mediterranean sea bass simply grilled, with a side of spinach accented rice; the shrimp souvlaki, with its cherry tomatoes and onions was outstanding---its tomato flavored rice complemented the dish perfectly. The lemon sorbet was a lesson in balance between sweet and tart. Overall a wonderful Christmas Eve treat.More infoEstia - PhiladelphiaPrice: Very Expensive• Greek• Center City•4.8
- NNeilVIPPhiladelphia County •58 reviews5.0Dined on 23 Dec 2024If you like high-quality meats, Fogo is the place to go. I recently hosted an office holiday party there (in the main dining area). Everyone loved the range of options at the superb salad bar, and the choice of meats (beef, lamb, pork, chicken), and the serving style is a lot of fun. Service was excellent -- there was never an empty water glass or an unmet need. The full service lunch price of $49 pp is worth every penny.More infoFogo de Chao - PhiladelphiaPrice: Moderate• Brazilian• Center City•4.4
