Wow! My first time and won’t be my last. This was an amazing experience - the food was so flavorful and the service was immaculate. I had the pumpkin soup and the short rib - sooo yummy! Highly recommend.

We have never had a less than stellar meal at Forsythia. It is a gem that seems after all these years, to be undiscovered. The duck is amazing. The wine list superb. Every dish is delicious. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!

One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had, hands down. Their restaurant week menu was amazing. They have some of the best bread I’ve ever had (a house made focaccia, served with a peach & espelette butter).
Everything from top to bottom was top tier.
I should also mention my girlfriend told me this was her favorite meal in Philly so far! For me, it was definitely top 5.

We had an amazing night. The staff were so courteous and kind. They handled my kids’ food allergies amazingly. And they were so thoughtful with providing a hand signed birthday card and a little extra dessert for his birthday. So personal and amazing. Btw the food was amazing as well. Would come again definitely!

Went for restaurant week 2026. Fun experience, but nothing really stood out for the price. It’s not that impressive. The standouts were the duck and the pineapple tart.
