Eater: National Eater 38 member: In a dish inspired by flavors of a Reuben, smoked carrots stand in for brisket, with cabbage bridging the gap between sauerkraut & kimchi & a strip of pumpernickel crumbs. Read more.
Marie La Rue: Memorable dining experience. All dishes were perfectly executed and creatively played with textures: rutabaga fondue, trumpet mushrooms, shaved Brussels sprouts, miso tofu and grilled beets.
Eater: This isn't a great vegan restaurant, it's one of Philly's best restaurants, period. Don't sleep on this one. Read more.
