Bonus Web Content
I remember Twenty Manning. I remember the come-hither sofas and the lounge lizards splayed across them. I remember light that felt sexy and food that felt exotic. I remember this was the first place I tasted lemongrass. It was the year 2000, and it was in a martini. Go figure.

Only thing good is the atmosphere. Food, service, and wine list stink. I'd rather eat fast food than waste my money again here.

The matza ball soup was good. The beef and chicken satay was so so, and the amount of meat rather petite. Onto the next course chicken pot pie: Arrived »»

I have eaten here about 4-5 times now and each time the food was amazing. You get decent size portions, the cook is wonderful as is the bartenders. »»

Pizzeria Beddia

Average entree under $10 Takeout menu
115 E. Girard Ave.

No one’s going to accuse Joe Beddia of rushing to market. He’s been making careful study of pizza for years, and early responses to the American-style pies coming out of his new Fishtown spot suggest that all that homework’s paying off. His thin-crust pies are fired on a gas deck a ... more »

Dolphin Tavern

Cedar Point Bar and Kitchen

Average entree $10 - $20 Liquor license
2370 E. Norris St.
215-423-5400

This brand-new Fishtown spot is the follow-up to NoLibs’ A Full Plate Café, which shuttered late last year. The menu has an unmistakable Southern-comfort motif and seeks to welcome all comers — there’s chicken and waffles and a healthy dose of pork, sure, but there’s also a strong ... more »

This Delaware-based café chain has expanded into Center City by acquiring the space that formerly housed Millennium Coffee.
