Getting a table at "Top Chef " Nicholas Elmi's tiny BYOB can be difficult, but when you get there, you may have your best meal of the year. Elmi may be best know for his ricotta gnocchi . Read more

CITY GRIT

Chef/Owner Nick Elmi 's new Modern-French influenced American cuisine is some of the most beautiful and delicious food we tasted in 2013! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

Service was top-notch. The lamb neck may have been my favorite. Perfect dinner option for special occasions .

Nathaniel Bowen

Probably the best meal I’ve ever had. Great tasting menu and excellent, of-the-beaten-path wine pairings . You’ll spend a lot, but it’s well worth it. Also, the service was knowledgeable and friendly .

Hard to get a reservation.tiny and expensive . After two months of anticipation it was still one of the best meals I've had in philly.
