People need to stop letting restaurants get away with charging $18 for basic cocktails

This was a really special brunch experience and the food was exceptional. The parfait was perfect - sour, creamy homemade yogurt, mint, and sweet crunch granola. It was spicy, sweet, creamy. The Corsican breakfast was great and very different. Finally, the pancakes were great - the cinnamon was powerful, fresh. This was a great meal and I will make an excuse to come again!

Cute restaurant by the pool with a charming atmosphere and great food. We went there for brunch and enjoyed it a lot. The omelette was especially delicious. And they have a nice list of nonalcoholic cocktails. The service was excellent I have to say and made our afternoon very enjoyable. I’d definitely come back to try more of their food and soak up the sun.

I think this is one of the best hidden gems in Philly! I’ve been twice now and have never been disappointed. The cocktails are incredible, and the swordfish brochettes with pesto and black rice…one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Their fresh pastas are incredible and perfect for sharing as an app. Dare I say their version of an espresso martini is the best I’ve had? I love that it’s not vodka based. We have sat at the bar both times & have had lovely conversations with the bartenders, who are very friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve never felt rushed and the overall vibe is elevated while comfortable. This is a spot I will keep coming back to!

This place is superb. Definitely one of my top meal experiences. We’ll be back for sure. I love the Corsica / Sardinia inspired menu and the staff were brilliant to us.

This new American spot inside a boutique hotel in Fishtown has a great ambiance, so nice inside! We came to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and the staff were attentive, even giving us a complimentary starter and ice cream dessert. The seasonal menu is full of creative dishes, and we tried almost everything! My favorites were the grilled octopus and the T-bone dry-aged ribeye with frites, the mushrooms were great. The only downside is the menus, they hand each of us about five sheets for drinks, food, specials, and bottles, which felt a bit much. Portions are a bit small for the price, but overall the food is good and worth trying.

great atmosphere, drinks are excellent, food is delicious.
This has to be the best newcomer to the Philadelphia food scene. Located in a boutique hotel in the Fishtown area, Bastia exemplifies haute cuisine in a cool, chill atmosphere with attentive service staff. Albeit a bit pricey, the old adage you get what you pay for shines here. From inventive cocktails to apps and entrees, this place checks all the boxes. Pry yourself away from Stephen Starr for a meal worth every penny.

Went in for breakfast last week and had one of the best cortados I’ve had in a while, and a delicious matcha tea (not latte) which was nicely prepared. Caleb was our server/barista at the bar and was lovely to talk to.
Unfortunately the drip coffee was off tasting, and had some odd residue floating in it. It was removed from the bill but still disappointing for what is $4 . Pastries were great, try the tomato tart, and the parfait was delicious.
Also their hours on the website are wrong? Came in for breakfast at 7 but apparently they don’t actually serve food until 8.
Hopefully they improve their coffee, I wouldn’t say it’s worth it when reanimator is cheaper yet much higher quality down the street, but cool atmosphere in this well decorated upscale hotel.
