- ZZachPhiladelphia County •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoHaving been to the previous Roxanne 3 times, I had high hopes for the new incarnation and was not disappointed. A la carte dining for chef Alex's food feels like a cheat code, this is nearly a perfect restaurant already - burger was crazy, dip homemade tater tots in panna cotta like the dankest version of dipping your fries in the frosty ever conceived. Service was great, space is so so nice and BIG compared to the former space. My only ding is that the wine list is only PA wines? Im not sure if thats a philosophical thing or a legal thing but if this place had a beverage program as good as its food program it would be a 20/10. Regardless, I will be back many timesMore infoRoxannePrice: Expensive• American• Queen Village•4.6
- WWayneVIPPhiladelphia County •13 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoFirst, you can't beat the ambience of this 4-masted sailing ship turned restaurant built in 1904 docked on the Delaware waterfront in Philadelpha. Add to that superb cuisine and service and it made for a memorable Valentine's Day dinner (a day late), Baked brie appetizer was excellent and large enough to share. My wife's scallops and my Alaska halibut were similarly outstanding. We both enjoyed the 2019 Mosel region Riesling that went well with dinner. To top it off, our server was one of the best ever. The Moshulu is not cheap but not outrageous, especially for the quality. If you drive there, parking is $20.More infoMoshuluPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Penn's Landing•4.6
- VVincentNew York City •12 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoNever had dinner here, so I decided to try it with brunch. Didn't disappoint. Parsnip soup is flavorful and rich and warms me up just right. I ordered the mushroom benedict with a side of sausage links. My partner picked the happy valley beef cheeks with pasta. I love the flavors and portions of our order. Service is attentive. I look forward to the culinary adventure here with my next dinner!More infoFork - PhiladelphiaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Old City•4.8

It was Valentine’s Day, and the staff signed a card for us! The food was so fresh and flavorful. The flavor of that Caesar salad… I’ll be raving about it forever.More infoLittle WaterPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Center City•4.7
- SSusanVIPPhiladelphia County •12 reviews4.0Dined on Jan 13, 2025Service by waitstaff and hosts was great! Food was good but couple of improvements to be made- such as branzino was over salted and bit too much dressing on the crab salad. Calamari was great!More infoKeating's Rope & Anchor Bar + KitchenPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Penn's Landing•3.8
