MORIMOTO REVIEWS

Fantastic restaurant, everything we ordered was delicious. The appetizer grilled wagyu smelled amazing. The clarified milk punch was tangy and fruity. Music wasn’t too loud. Glowing walls and fun art everywhere. Service was fine. Worth the money. This place would be great for a special occasion.

Absolutely beautiful space and delicious food! The Miso Soup was delicious and large. The Hot Stone Wagyu was one of the coolest experiences/best dishes I’ve had all year. And the Wasabi Fried Rice was a super fun take on a classic.

The omakase was amazing. I loved the experience of sitting at the table near the chefs and watching them work. Andrew provided world class service and information. Don't keep reading reviews- just book your table and get excited!

DOUBLE KNOT REVIEWS

Double knot’s downstairs “speakeasy” was super cool and caught me by surprise- I didn’t know they had that! I felt as if the staircase down & the dining/ bar area was too dark and could’ve been more lit. My friend and I struggled to see the menu and the food in front of us, but we’ll just be mindful to sit in the upstairs dining area instead if we ever return. ( photos taken were edited with max brightness) Some items that stood out the most were the lamb chops and the soup dumplings!

The food was amazing. It was my second time dining with them. First time I did the chef tasting menu which I highly recommend. The second time was for drinks and happy hour with my girls. Both times I was completely happy with my experience. Great date night vibes.

Double Knot delivered an amazing dining experience! We absolutely loved our meal—the blue crab sushi roll was fresh and flavorful, and the cod fried rice was packed with umami goodness. The drinks were just as enjoyable, perfectly complementing the meal.

TERAKAWA RAMEN REVIEWS

I am not sure what to add that hasn't already been written positively. Amazing, delicious, fantastic. I dare say that I had the best Christmas dinner on a cold Philadelphia night, Spicy Ramen. I enjoy coming here solo because there is usually one last seat available at this always packed Ramen spot. Service is fast and efficient with the occasional smile thrown in. Whether you want, desire, or need Ramen, Terakawa will fulfill all of your longing for this incredible dish they do so well.

My fav ramen bar in philly. I always get the signature ramen and takoyaki, but lots of other great options. The service is fast and friendly; we were in a rush to eat which is by no means anyone else’s problem besides our own, but the staff made us feel like it was also theirs and did what they could while still being fair to other customers. How they treated us speaks volumes to how well the business is run!

This is the best ramen place ever!!! It's the perfect meal before hitting the movie theatre. I always leave satisfied & happy! The staff is very kind and quick, always with a smile on their face. The ambience is wonderful. Highly highly highly recommend.
