Atmosphere is amazing for dates and special occasions . First timers should definitely try the chef tasting menu to get the full experience of the master chef ! $100 regular/$150 seasonal

Went there for lunch , service was great, not too crowded on Friday, you can upgrade your soup to a pork belly ramen with the lunch menu

New fall cocktail menu launching today including this Kobacha cocktail : roasted kabocha infused bourbon , angostura bitters , ginger beer lime , garnished with bourbon roasted kabocha & bamboo leaf

I went to this Japanese restaurant not too long ago and I experienced drinking sakè for the first time and it was delicious. I also ate sashimi and sushi . Everything was very delicious. #パーカーアミン

The atmosphere alone is amazing. It's expensive for sure, but the quality of the fish is outstanding. I had an otoro sashimi that was good as I have had in Japan

Authentic and creative à la carte dishes include toro (tuna ) with caviar and wasabi and tempura with Gorgonzola sauce . Reservations are recommended. Read more

One of the great places in Philadelphia for pristine raw fish and clever composed dishes. Hope to God that the foie gras chawan mushi , maguro niçoise , and ten-hour pork "kakuni" make an appearance.

Modernist Iron Chef wizardry may dazzle the tourists , but it's the straight-up sushi and sashimi that really steals the show. Scallop , amberjack and fresh water eel are the must-haves.

Everything was amazing here, especially the duck and the yellow tail tuna . If you go here ask for Raymond. He was amazing!

The 10 hour pork belly is absolutely incredible, as is the yuzu meringue tart . Yuzu meringue is a oerfectly light and citrus-y dessert for a hot, muggy day.

The Iron Chef 's first restaurant put Philadelphia on the culinary map, and the quality has never dipped below perfection. Of course, the Omakase is where it's at, but we love the Ramen , too. Read more

Great sushi in a beautifully modern setting. Dining at this Japanese hot spot won't leave you disappointed after your night out in Philly. Try the duck duck duck !

Enjoy our contemporary menu that mixes traditional Japanese ingredients with classic Western preparations. Daring diners can put themselves in the chef 's hands and partake in the tasting menu .

The Iron Chef 's restaurant in the City of Brotherly Love will have you loving your neighbor by the very first bite of tuna carpaccio pizza or soba carbonara (try the half order for a great deal).

Exquisite sushi . We split the chef 's combination and wasabi fried rice . Everything was very fresh and high quality. Swanky atmosphere, too!

Take advantage of the under-the-radar weekday happy hour in the lounge . Try a selection of maki for $6, apps for $7 and select cocktails , beers (including Morimoto's Rogue beers ) and wines for $6. Read more

This place is awesome. Any appetizer is delicious. Rock shrimp , duck duck duck , Kobe filet, all great entrees. The asparagus side is also delicious.

Excellent sushi , obviously, and the omakase is amazing

With Stephen Starr and Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto at the lead, Morimoto's original Philadelphia location is the perfect place to start a night in Center City .

Try anything with wagyu beef and the duck duck duck . One of the best meals I have ever had!

This imaginative Japanese fusion menu creates a notable dining experience. The Yellowtail on rice is delicious and entertaining since it is prepared tableside in a hot stone bowl.

Service and food are outstanding.

Duck duck duck : hands down one of the best dishes I have ever eaten.

Seared scallops , wagyu beef carpaccio and the tartare ! Mostly I love all their appetizers more than the entree :)

Love the veggie tempura roll , tuna roll and shrimp tempura roll . Rock shrimp is good too.

You wouldn't expect it, but Morimoto has a happy hour in the upstairs lounge from 5-7pm with drink & food specials mostly under $10.

Hands down the greatest sushi place in Philly. Awesome food, amazing decor, great service, well worth the price.

In the upstairs lounge , the Signature Hour (Sunday-Friday, from 5pm-7pm) is the perfect way to experience chef Morimoto’s signature appetizers ($7), maki ($6), cocktails , beer and wine ($6)

Try the Tuna Pizza , Angry Chicken or Braised Cod . Then try cooking Morimoto's recipe for the dish on KeepRecipes! You'll be donating to the American Red Cross's fund for Tsunami & Earthquake Relief. Read more

Rock shrimp tempura , waygu carpaccio , waygu dumplings , and kanpachi sushi or sashimi

great affordable , quick lunch . get the sushi combination (and carpaccio )

Not crowded on a Wednesday night. Great service and delicious seafood options . Pretty too.

Omakase . Expensive but worth it.

Atmosphere is amazing! I would order the omikasa. It is a 4 course meal to give you a chance to taste the best they have to order that day. They have the 3 choices based on your budget. Read more

At the far end of Iron Chef Morimoto's sushi stronghold is a sushi bar where you can watch the culinary wizards make rolls and maki .

Tuna pizza was amazing! My husband had the steak and it had to be the best steak I've ever tasted!

Excellent fresh "mix"

Do not be scared of the price tag on the ishi yaki bop w/ kobe beef it's absolutely amazing. The plus is that it is prepared in front of you!!!

Excellent sushi in downtown Philadelphia - owned by the same guy who opened Wasabi in Delhi

Get the Omakase which means roughly, "In the chef 's hands". Went there twice before I was a vegetarian and they were both amazingly inventive dinners . Most interesting dish was the jalapeno sorbet . Read more

From 5 p.m. to 7pm. the second floor lounge features half-price cocktails and snacks in the $5-7 range. Read more

Toro roll, spicy tuna roll is the best I've ever had! And the hazelnut beer is to die for!

Even if you don't like tofu , the yosedofu is amazing. I even got my dad to take seconds and he's usually a pure meat eater!

TV chef Masaharu Morimoto offers the culinary direction for this downtown Japanese restaurant . Read more

The tempura has along with all the fish and vegetables a chunk of mozarella wrapped in applewood bacon and tempura fried! Can't wait for the main course.

The appetizers were unfortunately underwhelming. The sushi and sashimi did redeem the overall dining experience, however, at around $200 a head with drinks, I find it hard to recommend this place.

The service is impeccable and the spicy king crab is like nothing I've ever tasted #delectable

Score the Iron Chef’s freshest catches at the back-of-the-house sushi bar .

Get the Omakase !! Totally worth every penny!
