Best Restaurants for Handcrafted Cocktails in Pennsylvania

This was our first time at lock bar and overall it was very good. We did not know being Christmas Eve of the kitchen was closing early which we were not thrilled about because we had a later dinner reservation and it forced us to order before we wanted to. The server also had a few miscues on the timing of things sending out the food too early but they rectified it and it was all okay. We both have the cream of crab soup which was very very good. I have the crab cake and the server said it was considered some of the best in the city and I would agree with that it was all pure crab meat no filler.

Our dinner at Daniel’s was an amazing surprise. The octopus dish was one of the best and most tender we’ve ever had. The flavor combinations were original but classic at the same time. Service from Josh and the team was great. Plus the kids loved their chicken, making it a great option for the whole family to go out in Conshohocken. We will definitely be back!

Came here to celebrate my birthday and we absolutely loved it. On the expensive side but so worth it. We had the dynamite sushi roll and a special sushi roll of the night and they were probably one of the best we’ve eaten, very fresh and flavorful. The special 28oz tomahawk was perfectly charred and so juicy. And the lobster Mac tied it all together, so amazing and cheesy with a whole lobster on top. They gave us a free desert for my birthday, which we got the warm butter cake and all I can say is wow… such an amazing desert. And to top it all off, our server Allegra, was impeccable. So attentive, made great recommendations, and did not miss a beat. All staff were super nice and made my birthday celebration great.

Intimate jewel of a place located upstairs from Ogawa omakase sushi bar. The cocktails are a marvel—loved the tomato essence riff of the dirty martini. But the bespoke cocktail made after giving your taste preferences (vegetal vs sweet, gin vs vodka, etc) were revelatory. While the menu is spare it’s all delicious and be prepared to order two sets of fries and their addictive wasabi mayo dip. The chicken is crunchy, the tofu slider satisfying and the hot dog rich and juicy. The celery and cucumbers are great palate cleansers. Don’t forget to order a beer to accompany the food and save your cocktail for sipping before and after. There were 4 of us and we ordered everything on the menu with doubles on sandwiches and fries. Your time slot is limited to 1 hr and 45 min and you’re going to want to take advantage of all of it so plan to order your next round of cocktails 10-15 min before you’re done with your first as they do take time to prepare. Budget $100pp with 2 rounds of cocktails and food. Server and host Eli Eisenstein is warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. Cocktail maestro Rob stopped by at the end to check in which was so appreciated. We will certainly be back. A wonderful addition to the Philly food scene.

The service was great everything else was great I would recommend this to friends and family!
