I honestly think this may be the best restaurant in Philadelphia. Hyper seasonal dishes, executed perfectly. Thoughtful wine and cocktail list, amazing cheese board. Appetizers: don't miss riccota gnudi,corn soup, meatballs. Mains: Best chicken in town, ravioli are amazing as well. You can't go wrong with anything however. Desserts amazing as well including the donuts and the blondie skillet. Ambience perfect both indoors and in the garden. Top this off with the best hospitality and service in Philadelphia. If you're only going to eat at one restaurant in Philly, Talulas is the spot. We have been coming here for years and will continue.

We were greeted by a warm, welcoming and professional staff. Our waitress recommended an excellent bottle of wine, and provided outstanding service throughout the meal. Each of our four courses were expertly prepared from high quality ingredients and were absolutely delicious. Such a wonderful meal and evening. Thank you!

Wow! I was completely blown away by the food at High Street. It was both inventive and delicious. Homemade pasta with toasted buckwheat gave a wonderful crunch and taste. The fig and ricotta flatbread was super fresh and not too sweet. And the pizza had a perfectly baked crust and marinated mushrooms. The server was also super friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to go again!

    Jules@Market is absolutely incredible and easily one of the best restaurants in the area! I know they’re known for their seafood, which is amazing—the oysters alone are worth the trip—but the STEAK… WOW! Honestly, one of the best steaks I’ve ever had, and that’s comparing it to some of the top steakhouses I’ve been to in Philly and NYC. It was that good! Service was fantastic from start to finish. We also got to meet Jules, and she was awesome! You can tell how much she cares about the restaurant and the experience her guests have. I can’t rave about this place enough. Amazing food, great service, great atmosphere. Definitely one of the best restaurants in the area. Can't wait to go back!

    Love the cowboy ribeye bone in steak. Prepared to my request. Sides are delicious. Service is impeccable. Our special server was Scott, who was on top of everything! I’ve had the chicken parm and thick cut pork chop and both are excellent. I’ve never had a bad experience here. Lastly, the “Juniors “ cheesecake is to die for. Its presentation is superb!
