As Philadelphia’s restaurant scene continues to thrive, several new spots are emerging as must-visit destinations, writes Kae Lani Palmisano for Philadelphia Magazine.
Bastia in Fishtown offers excellent food served in a romantic ambiance. Nestled inside Hotel Anna & Bel, the restaurant transports you to the northern shores of Corsica with each dish. Highlights include grilled octopus with a kick of salsa verde and storzapretti ricotta dumplings.
Provenance in Society Hill will serve you one of the most extravagant meals of your life. The dinner has 22 or more dishes and you will want to try all of them. Part of the amazing experience is watching Nicholas Bazik lead the kitchen with the precision of a maestro guiding a grand performance.
If you are looking for a mouthwatering takeout to last you for days, head to Black Dragon Takeout in West Philadelphia. The eatery combines Black soul food and Chinese American takeout, creating a truly unique experience.
Meanwhile, Sorellina in Callowhill is a casual spot where you can enjoy the fantastic Stella pizza. All the classics are available, but be sure to try one of the more underrated pies that are not available anywhere else in the city.
Amy’s Pastelillo’s in Kensington features many flavors, including guava barbecue pork, shredded chicken, and ground beef picadillo.
