Lebanese Restaurant · Northern Liberties - Fishtown · 29 tips and reviews
Kath: Beautiful restaurant and courtyard for brunch or dinner. #outdoor dining #healthy
Caroline Li: Get the lamb hummus and Lebanese chai latte
Matthias: I could bath in the hummus, fell in love with labne & falafel, their oil where they serve the juicy kefta & the mouth watering shish taouk in is out of this world & I could just keep going like that.
Jonathan Hoster: Beautiful, modern Courtyard. Rooms and beds are very spacious and comfortable. Staff are outstanding. Ample free parking. Great location on City Ave. right off the Schuylkill Expressway (I-76).
Abdullah AlMohrej: Everything is perfect, basically
Erika Arrea: Hotel esta bien! Es diferente y moderno pero muy seria la decoración! Muy frío el AC todo el tiempo! Y el fin de semana la piscina no es para hacer ejercicios. Estaba full!

Italian Restaurant · Washington Square West · 55 tips and reviews
Adam H: When it's warm, the cute inside courtyard is such a fun place to eat in and has great atmosphere. The Sunday Gravy is delicious, too!
Philadelphia Magazine: Italian comfort food taken to the next level, with something on the menu for everyone. Standouts include wild mushroom arancini, and shrimp scampi. Order the polenta and meatballs to share. Read more.
Erica Nardello: The menu says that the meatballs are filled with fontina. What the menu doesn't say is that this cheesy filling might be a portal to heaven. See for yourself.

Bar · Northern Liberties - Fishtown · 131 tips and reviews
Philadelphia Magazine: "Seriously awesome beer list, seriously awesome outdoor courtyard, seriously awesome vintage arcade games."
Greg Reese: The only place to play some of the best old school arcade games. One of my go to stops when I'm visiting.
Thrillist: The menu delivers small cheese & meat plates, but let's face it, you want to be here for the 25-tap bar and 25-cent arcade games. Read more.

Italian Restaurant · Bella Vista - Southwark · 37 tips and reviews
Tracey Welson-Rossman: Service was excellent. Eat in the courtyard if you can.
Noah Manion: Best meal I've had in a long time. Get the octopus, porchetta and stuffed olives
Showtime Network: Luckily, you’ve stumbled across a Philly classic that’s under the tourist radar. If only the Vatican had such a place, the Borgia family would have surely escaped papal stresses and prying eyes here.

History Museum · Center City East · 27 tips and reviews
