In Philly now - Restaurant Question

I'm in Philly now and am trying to figure out where to go for dinner - there will be 6 of us with varying tastes, and budgets. All can probably handle $20 entrees, but would like to be able to have choices. Any ideas? We are near City Hall and will walk...and can walk a mile or so if necessary. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

We went to an interesting place for a Fodors GTG - I was staying at the Marriott that is pretty close to city hall. Let me see if I can find the thread. A local Suki set it up.

It was actually Karens that arranged it but I feel like Suki helped us find the place... I am searching...

I like Sotto Varalli/Upstares at Varalli http://www.varalliusa.com/dinnermenu.php and they sometimes have good prix fix deals; they're quite close to City Hall.

Or you could go over into Chinatown to Imperial Inn and order the Imperial Feast for sharing--but be sure to ask for walnut shrimp as one of your entrees!

Estia! We were there a couple of weeks ago and it was fabulous. Sadly, I can't find the prices, but I do remember there were lots of choices. estiarestaurant.com
