Tapas Restaurants in Philadelphia, PA

“Una experiencia culinaria deliciosa y única. La cabeza de cerdo estaba de show al igual que el pulpo y los boquerones. La atención fue muy buena y agradable. Gracias a todos y al Chef. Lo recomiendo altamente y regresaré.“

“An extensive variety of tapas restaurant with a good selection of wines and outdoor seating area. A focus on fresh, all crafted with the finest authentic ingredients. **Wine Selection**: A curated list of wines which achieve recognition as the "Best Organic Wine List" in North America in 2023. **Ambiance**: A cozy, inviting outdoor patio with comfortable seating, perhaps with Spanish decor and ambient lighting to create a relaxing atmosphere. **Service**: Knowledgeable staff who can provide recommendations on food and wine pairings, and who offer friendly, attentive service.“

“Our first experience at a James Beard award winning restaurant (2017) and chef was incredible at Vernick Fish in Philadelphia to celebrate Trent’s graduation! I know now what this caliber of food and service means and all other restaurants pale in comparison to Vernick Fish and Greg Vernick(semi-finalist chef 2025). From the appetizers (dozen oysters from RI, MA, ME, PEI) to the drinks and main course were all uniquely exquisite and cannot be replicated anywhere else. The constant doting with new silverware at each course and cleaning of the table was undeniably royalty treatment. Even the bathroom was an experience-I need the hand lotion in my life (instantly made my hands look 30 years younger). The portions, ambiance and service were all equally perfect! I highly recommend you check out Vernick Fish. We will definitely return!“

“My go to bar!! Baby the 50/50 burger and beef skewers on a Caesar salad are my favorites....good food, good vibes, I love how the owners are always friendly,welcoming, and present amongst the workers“

“Not child friendly need more option“

“Right from the time I walked in, the customer service was through the roof. We went for happy hour and had some of the best drinks. If you have a reservation, ask for V. His service, personality and recommendations were amazing. Will be returning“

“The menu was perfect size and covered everyone's tastes. Everyone in our group enjoyed their dishes and raved about how delicious everything was. Luis and the rest of the staff were so attentive and engaging and made our celebratory dinner special and memorable! Thank you Olea for an amazing experience.
Best, Veronica R.“

“Amazing service amazing bartenders Cecil is the man!!!! Big shout out for great selections and amazing drinks all night!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Classy but casual atmosphere and some of the most inventive and impressive vegan dishes I’ve had anywhere. A mandatory stop whenever I’m in Philly!“

“I was skeptical because I absolutely love eating meat. Meat and bbq is a huge part of my life. That being said dinner Saturday night was unbelievably fantastic. I absolutely loved everything that we ordered. Moms meatballs were my favorite dish. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that they are vegan. The cocktails were also delicious and strong. A++++ for this restaurant!“

“The highlight of this restaurant was the atmosphere. Great service and a really nice place to have dinner. The food was good (with the meatballs as an excellent standout dish), but not up to the quality of the other Michelin bibs I’ve tried. If I were invited for dinner here I would have no hesitation going, but I probably wouldn’t go again on my own.“

“Very nice service food was excellent“

“Fantastic dining experience our server Sean Martin was amazing.“

“We came for bunch for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. The crab Benedict was amazing, the sangria pancakes were fluffy and perfect! My daughter absolutely love everything! Served super friends, and staff quick to clear dirty dishes. We will definitely be returning!!“

“Just visiting Philly for the weekend and stopped by to try this place, as it was on my way to the subway. Had the vegetable bao and it was AMAZING! I don’t know how or why it was so good but it was and I felt compelled to leave a review. We were the only ones in there and it took a few minutes for them to make the bao but it was totally worth it!“

“I’ve eaten here a few times and it’s always been fantastic. Tonight especially so. The setting is obviously unique but the food and service would deliver in any location.

From the second we got off the elevator we were friends. The host welcomed our kids and us (we normally don’t bring our kids to dinner) more naturally than those closest to us. We had a temporary diet restriction and the chef came out and talked us through it and tailored something specific to what we needed.

I work in this industry and spend pretty much all my free time in it too. Places like this are rare sources of both inspiration and aspiration for me.“

“You see the picture? That is a best view of the bar so sut there. Good beer, good food. The burger came with just fries and it had a very fresh seasoning: fresh heated up shallots on fries and sage seasoning. The combination you can describe in high end food places and this is just a bar! The bar is a late period design art nouveau with a pretty surprising design - whoever created it they imagined this bar in art noveau from the perspective to be seated in the middle (where they actually have a check machine now). Philly, I love you okay?“

“Love Fishtown Social! I always look forward to Mystery Wine Mondays, where you can get $10 glasses of wine and get to guess what kind of wine it is. If you win, you get the bottle! I've really come to look forward to Mondays now, which is hard for anyone to say. Their selection is great, and their entire staff is super knowledgeable and kind :) def check it out if you're a wine lover and in the area!“

“Super friendly owner and staff. Nice selections of authentic Spain products. I recommend the jamon sandwich“

“Lovely little spot. It appears to be relatively new. Bright, open and clean. I’d call the decor Minimalistic. The irony of Our Town is that they are from Lancaster. It was quizzo night so they were crowded. The woman next to me at the bar ordered a sour beer. She kicked the keg. No sour beer from Jimmy. We had a nice chat. I think she just wanted to gloat that she got the last sour. I got a $6 citywide. I think I won. Nice little spot.“

“Great atmosphere, service, and quality 👍“

“It was a wonderful experience the service was great the food was great !!!!! Highly recommend!!!!!“

“Stayed at the hotel here before a flight out of Philly. Didn’t have high expectations based off the reviews. Don’t listen to the bad reviews. Food was exceptional for a hotel bar. Service was prompt and the atmosphere was lively. Only downside is it’s very dark and hard for some people to read the menu.“

“The food was very good and the vibe was perfect. Unfortunately there was not much staff to work the food and drink service and we waited a long time to be seated and had to keep going up to the bar for drinks since no one would come to our table.“
