I've been here several times and have always been completely satisfied. The bartenders are fantastic and are exremely knowledgeable about the drinks--I reccommend trying the sake they often have themselves infused with fruit--quite tasty! As for the sushi--party in my mouth. Best I have ever had, and that's quite a bit for myself. All in all, I'd have to say that combined with the atmosphere and variety offered, this is not just my favorite sushi place, but my favorite restaurant/bar in the city!
Pros: menu tour-guides, variety of food/drink, great spot
Cons: can get rather busy

Forget the nachos and try the platter specials at lunch. They are inexpensive, filling and unlike any mexican food I have ever had in a U.S. restaurant.
Share a table with a stranger - who said Philly people are grumpy.
Pros: Imaginative food, inexpensive
Cons: Saturday's are a zoo

This stall in Reading Market is one of my standbys for Saturday lunch- I usually go for the Yucatan Pork Salad (ask for no chips- otherwise the chips take up hald the bowl) , and everything else I've had there has been tasty as well. Try any of the grilled steak or chicken dishes- you can watch them grill it fresh for your meal.
Pros: tasty and fresh food prepared for your order
Cons: it's a food stall- don't expect ambience!

I have been going to the gym for 2 years. Every gym is busy at peak hours, and 12th st is no exception; however, what makes the place stand out are the classes offered by great instructors. Also, they are in the globalfit network, if your employer offers that.

This place used to be a dump until Matt transformed the place. You can get a slice of pizza and much more in the center of Philadelphia's Gayborhood. It is what it is, a slice or a pie to go.

Ernesto's is just up the street from the new Kimmel Center of Performing Arts & is a perfect choice on a concert night. A renovated brownstone, the interior architectural details are lovely with its high ceilings, hardwood floors, fireplace.
All four of us opted for salad appetizers, each ordering a different kind and each one of us enjoyed our choice.
It wasn't an evening for individuality as three of us had as our entree the vegetable napoleon. It consisted of fried eggplant, tomato, zucchini, lentil polenta, parmesan cheese & perhaps something else, resting on a bed of pureed red peppers. This was utterly delicious! The fourth in our party had baked chicken breast with mashed potatoes. It may not have been an out of the ordinary choice, but I noticed that he finished it off quickly, leaving not a trace on the plate.
We were stuffed & decided not to have dessert or coffee. Besides, the concert was beginning in 15 min. They also will allow you to return after a concert for your dessert and coffee.
We have returned to Ernesto's many times since this first review and never have we been disappointed.

Surprisingly smart and thoughtful beer selection. Three Philosophers on tap, tall bottles of Rodenbach, and a seven malt scottish ale made in the US(did I mention it comes in a can!). I had a barley wine smooth and creamy as a stout with double the taste and triple the alcohol! One basket of their specialty white truffle and locateli frites emerged from the their kitchen, and had everyone's mouth watering. Accompanied by a creamy horseraddish dipping sauce they tasted even better than they smelled. Comfortable inviting atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. The best thing happening for South Philly Gastro-pubs right now.
Pros: Top quality. Low price. Great people
Cons: parking(take a cab)
