Five stars, an unforgettable anniversary dinner at Authograph Brasserie! We celebrated our anniversary at Authograph Brasserie last night, and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with a glass of champagne and a complimentary box of macarons, such a thoughtful touch that made us feel special right away. We came for Restaurant Week and the food was delicious from start to finish, and the Maple Crème Brûlée was out of this world. A special shout-out to our server, Julio, whose service was simply spectacular. He was attentive, warm, and made the whole evening feel effortless. Thank you for making our anniversary so memorable. We'll definitely be back!

I've been to La Famiglia before a number of years ago and since we were so close during our visit to Philly I decided to try it again. It did not disappoint. The staff, especially the Maitre'd, Jesus, were superb. Jesus made a great presentation of the bottle of Barolo that we ordered. The food was outstanding. We split the tuna tartar appetizer. Unlike any we had before. Delicious. My partner, Margaux, ordered the pork chop. Wow, I'm not a pork chop lover but after tasting this one, I changed my mind. I ordered the house special pasta, penna La Famiglia. Penne done perfectly but it was the sauce that was the standout. Highly recommended. We had to skip dessert since we ate so much and even took some leftovers home and had them the next day. I highly recommend La Famiglia.

Service was fantastic. We enjoyed our waiter very much. He was very good at his job and made it a pleasure.

Smash Burger and Filet were perfect. Salmon was cooked to perfection, just a little busy with a veggie like soup base it is served on. Service was exceptional.

In our party of 4, only I had been to Louie Louie before. We were dazzled! We started with oysters on the half shell, roasted bone marrow (exceptional) and steak tartare. Mains were all delicious and well presented: Flounder Françsise, Verlasso salmon, moules frites and Mediterranean bronzino. Desserts were Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée and cookies and cream trifle. A splendid meal!
