$$ | Rittenhouse Square Fodor's Choice

What was once a Rittenhouse institution is now a Rittenhouse darling after the restaurant was sold to husband-and-wife team Chad and Hanna Williams and revitalized as a warm yet elevated space with boundary-pushing but still familiar food and drinks. The new American fare ranges from a curated raw bar, featuring oysters and caviar, to delicate pastas coated in punchy sauces with proteins like lobster and pork cheek. Equal attention is given to the bar, which offers well-thought-out cocktails that look like they’re ready for a photo shoot. The restaurant received the James Beard Foundation's Outstanding Restaurant award in 2023, which has made it hard to snag a reservation, though it's worth going out of your way for special occasions.
