Saw via Jessica Sidman's tweet that they announced on Facebook that they closed tonight. -
The hotel right across the street from Zahav is Sheraton on Society Hill. It's fine. If you're in that area, Olde Bar (former Bookbinder's location) has a happy hour every day (5-7 on Mon-Fri, 4-6 on Sat and Sun). The bar at Zahav fills up right at opening, at 5pm, and even earlier (they let people in to the bar earlier). Even when I walked in last night at 5pm on a Sunday, the bar was already almost full except for 2 seats. Going back to Center City, I also liked Abe Fisher (also has a weekend happy hour at the bar, 5-7 pm). I tried to stop at the bar at Tinto once, but it was too crowded. I like Sampan as a solo diner at the counter in the dining room where you can see them cooking. I've had no luck the few times I've tried to sit at the bar, which isn't that large and is hectic. But I've been able to get the dining room counter without reservations.
