Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in East Passyunk Avenue

Most beautiful restaurant in Philadelphia! The views! The lighting! Amazing! The food was just okay for brunch but the dessert bar made up for it! I always love the vibe and service when I dine at SkyHigh!

"It was absolutely amazing!!! Highly recommended!!! P.S. Yesterday, we celebrated our anniversary with friends at an incredible restaurant that doubled as an opera house! The professional performers blew us away with their talent. We loved opera. As opera enthusiasts, we were particularly impressed by the stunning performance of Eugene Onegin by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, sung in Russian. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience.

Our server Brandon made our experience exceptional. He provided us with food and drink recommendations and did not steer us wrong. Two of us at our table immensely enjoyed the Romarin specialty cocktail. Four of us shared three hors d’ouevres - the charcuterie, the mushroom tart and the crispy artichokes along with the beet salad. The serving sizes of each were perfect for the 4 of us to share. Our water glasses were continually refilled and the service was excellent. Two at our table had the Saturday special - poultry feuillete - an elevated chicken pot pie with mushrooms and black truffle oil. I sampled the special and the sauce was superb! I ordered the Moules Frites and another had the veal escalope. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food, the atmosphere and didn’t feel rushed. The interior of the restaurant was decorated for the holidays and it was a warm, welcoming environment. We completed our meal by sharing the moelleux au chocolat - a warm chocolate cake with hazelnuts and praline sorbet…delicious! I would highly recommend this restaurant for the quality of the food and the inviting atmosphere.

We had not been there in 5 years and it was amazing as always. We def wont be waiting another 5 years for our next visit. Dirk provided great service. We had the amazing crab cocktail as an app which both the mustard and cocktail sauces were not wasted. We tried 32oz porterhouse for 2 and it was a real winner (gotta add that truffle butter). We were celebrating my wife's birthday and they provided a complimentary birthday treat which was a homemade vanilla ice cream on top of a chocolate shell on top of a brownie. It was the perfect size for two "full" people to share after a big meal.

Consistently EXCELLENT for 35 years. Never had a bad experience. Parking is easy, service is always great and the food is as good as anywhere in the world. Never disappointing...except when we can't get in!
