This restaurant remains an icon and treasure among Philadelphia’s dining scene. It is structurally a beautiful place with waterfall walls and the outsized Buddha centerpiece. Every dish I have ever had over the many years is consistently delicious and the service is top notch. We even take out for birthdays and every Valentine’s Day and the food is just the best! I would eat at Buddakan every day if I could. Congratulations to the entire team for the exceptional food, decor and service.

Let me begin that the food is amazing here. All homemade pasta and decadent dinner choices. The squid ink pasta- recommended by our wonderful waiter- was fantastic. The bucatini in a cream cognac was outstanding. Everyone had a great meal in our party and staff was amazing. Desserts like the oil cake is a must try. I highly recommend dining here.

First visit to A.Kitchen and it was a great experience from start to finish. Sat at the chef's counter where we watched our chef juggle the lunch crowd by himself with a smile and great skill. We had a glass of wine from the small but well-selected list and a specialty cocktail. Great start. One server for the small room but she was so nice and attentive despite the challenge. Opened with the Chickpea Panisse. A unique taste of delicately fried chickpeas, not a falafel ball, but a relative over tahini and charred veggies. Large steak frites came with huge steakhouse fries, perfectly grilled as ordered. Branzino was a filet grilled to absolute perfection with tiny veggies all around. One chance for a first impression and A.Kitchen over delivered.

I have been wanting to get to Amada for a while. It was really a nice experience. My wait staff person was really helpful - recommended a great wine and what he liked on the menu. Service overall was excellent. The recommended wine as really enjoyable - just what my palate enjoys. The food was Scrumptious - i loved the rellenos and the patatas. Had a few bites of the basque cheesecake and then had to wrap it for home. I will come back and bring a friend or two.
