I recently traveled to Phila for business and had 2 exquisite dining experiences.
FORK
Fork is a New American Bistro restaurant and bar located in Philadelphia's Old City. Fork's interior is hip and elegant (and small, so call in advance for reservations because you will need them). I had the baby arugula salad, pan seared salmon, and the white chocolate-cinnamon brioche bread pudding aside Tahitian vanilla gelato. If your mouth is not watering it should be. Mine is watering just remembering this scrumptious meal. My colleagues were equally enthused about their meals. I found Fork to be the perfect ending to a long day. You'll love it for any occasion. 5 Stars, $$$

STRIPED BASS
As the name suggests Striped Bass is a seafood restaurant and bar. The dining room is striking. Formerly a brokerage house, Striped Bass has many of the original architectural details, including 28 foot ceilings, grand marble columns, and a metal striped bass sculpture. The space is warmed by an open kitchen, subdued lighting from stunning crystal chandeliers, and earth toned furniture, floors, and carpets.
At Striped Bass your favorite seafood is fresh, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented to you by knowledgeable and friendly staff. I particularly recommend any of the yellow fin tuna or lobster dishes. But whatever your choice, my guess is you will be pleased. 5 Stars, $$$$
