From the OpenTable editors: More than 20 years into its run, James Beard Award-winning restaurateur Ellen Yin’s pioneering restaurant is still a hotspot for elegant, farm-to-table fare. Dig into hyper-seasonal dishes that could include dry-aged, grass-fed steak with bone marrow butter, potatoes, and bibb lettuce in the inviting dining room dressed with colorful murals and lush greenery. Add in a pitch-perfect wine list and exceptional service, and this is a neighborhood destination you’ll want to return to again and again.

    The food here is among the best in Philly. They gave us a 10% discount because we had tickets to the Arden Theater, which is fantastic. The chili rubbed pork chop was the best I’ve ever had. Oysters were amazing. We will return.

    I think I want to have Thanksgiving this way every year! The dark meat option is maybe the best version of turkey I've ever had!! Bread pudding reminds me of my grandfather's. The cranberry sauce with the beet salad is a new favorite combination!!! Even my daughter who won't eat turkey normally loved the turkey!! Apple pie is stellar as well!

    There was a slip in quality compared to Thanksgiving last year, so we probably won't return. First course was a bit odd - large helpings of too sweet brussel sprouts. Main course was disappointing. All three of us got turkey, was presented on one plate. Stingy portions for white meat, stuffing and gravy, not enough for three people. Also included a turkey Pate, which was not to our liking. Chocolate hazelnut cake was good, while apple pie was average. Nice atmosphere, friendly service.

    Our Thanksgiving dinner at Fork was everything we hoped for, from inventive takes on traditional dishes (like cranberry sauce flavored with star anise) to the newly renovated (moody, sophisticated) dining room. Highlights included fresh oysters and perfectly dressed tuna crudo, and roasted butternut squash stuffed with tangy labneh. No detail is overlooked—even the parsley butter for the dinner rolls was memorable. Creative cocktails like the “Sibling Rivalry” and a surprisingly smooth barrel aged Wild Turkey (a nod to the presumed centerpiece of the holiday meal) set the vibe, and service found the sweet spot between unobtrusive and efficient. Can’t wait for the seven fishes on Christmas Eve.
