We went to Fork for my son's graduation from college. There were 6 of us at the table. We enjoyed the duck feast and the beef feast. Both were exceptional. The drinks and wine list were very interesting and fairly priced. Our server, Tony, was exceptional. The only downside was that with 6 people and a $700 bill I would...

Description: Fork, acclaimed for its contemporary American cuisine for 15 years, is proud to introduce Chef Eli Kulp. Chef Kulp’s inventive-but approachable menu is inspired by the region’s finest produce, seafood and meat as well as the area's deep history. Part of Fork's allure is its hip, stylish, sophisticated interior, where the dining experience is anything but stuffy and uncomfortable. Fork's hand-painted chandelier shades catch your eye as you look above the cast-concrete bar. Modern contemporary murals painted by Anthony DeMelas accentuate the height of the ceilings. Since opening, Fork has received the praise of many local and national publications, including the New York Times, USA Today, Town and Country, Food and Wine, Wine Spectator, Zagat's and Gourmet. Fork has received 15 Best of Philly awards from Philadelphia Magazine.

We had the chef's special menu that included appetizers, shared pasta, entree, dessert, and a few special courses in between ... including a donut course! Each dish was amazing and the service was wonderful. It was a leisurely meal of more than 3 hours and was fine dining at its best, in spite of our two-year-old guest. We highly recommend...

We had wanted to try Fork last year and were about to make a reservation when we read about a change in chefs. It struck us that the prudent approach might be to wait and see what the new guy had up his sleeve, could he be as good as the chef who left etc.
We kept our eyes on...

This is a quaint eatery, good location for tourists, food is surprisingly only so so despite the owner being somewhat notable, nice people, a little too much spent on selling other food related items. Sandwiches are nice and the beer is decent - just a tad over pricey - I just like the setting and location of this place, i.e....

Was there for dinner. We had the 4 course dinner for ~66$ a person. Food was amazing. Everything is fresh and nice presented. It was very creative, and you will see that they really try to give you a unique experience.
The chef worked before in NY in a place with a Michelin star.
Service was excellent.
Total was 130$...

Great food, lively ambience, comfortable, with good wait staff. A bit noisy, but comfortable overall. You can eat at the bar, if there are no tables. Great location after the movies at the Ritz.

Okay, we had read all the reviews and were ready for a great dinner - very interesting and local cuisine, eclectic and well chosen wine list. The reality was somewhat less. Great bottle of wine, excellent starters, a delicious pasta and a tuna and veal carpaccio, really well done. The Tete a Tete Cali Syrah was great.The main courses were...
