    Delicious food, expertly prepared. The Estia chips are a must. No matter all the other tempting dishes on the menu, can never resist the grilled prawns -- huge, sweet, cooked just to the right point. And, of course, perfect service from old friend, Saki.

    Estia was the perfect pre-show dinner. Their theater menu was perfect and everything came out as expected, delicious, and with more than enough time to get to the show and in our seats. Would definitely recommend and go back again.

    This was our first visit to this restaurant which is conveniently near the Kimmel. The menu offers a special theatre menu for $40. The menu offered 6 options for appetizers and entrees as well as 3 for desserts. The options were nicely varied. We had the tomato salad and the meat ball options as appetizers. These contain ed plentiful amounts of fresh ingredients and were very flavorful. We chose the eggplant and lamb options as entrees and they were delicious. The sea salt enhanced baklava was well work the extra $5 price. The service was attentive and the restaurant interior was warm and delightfully decorated. As an extra bonus they recommended on their website a cheap parking option!

    Once again we stopped in for dinner before an evening concert of the Philadelphia Symphony. We were seated in a small but quiet table in a corner as we had requested. And, as usual, we ordered off of the pre-theater menu which is a terrific value and assures that you make the concert with time to spare. The lamb was superb, the desserts to die for, and the tempo of the evening leisurely. It was the perfect balm after a miserable trip down the Skuylkill to get to town. Estia has become our pre-show favorite.

    We dined at Estia on a Thursday evening prior to a concert at the Kimmel Center. We ordered from the pre-theater menu which includes an appetizer, main course, and dessert for $40. I had the meatballs, fish of the day, and the honey walnut cake. My wife had spanakopita, moussaka, and baklava. Everything was delicious and the portions were decent - just the right amount of food for an early dinner. The restaurant is very attractive, with good spacing between the tables. The service was excellent. I highly recommend Estia!
