bettyjoan Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Going to Philly next week for the first time ever. I already have reservations at Morimoto, but after splurging on omakase, I'll be looking for some more bargain-oriented places. I'm staying at the Marriott on Market Street--any recommendations? Bonus for restaurants where both meat-eaters and vegetarians can be happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edenman Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Monk's has a few veggie options, and great (mostly) belgian beer. Nodding Head brewpub also has a small handful of veggie menu items, and again great beer. Eulogy is another great belgian beer place, but maybe not as veg-friendly. And the carnivore(s) will be really happy at any of the above, especially at Monk's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monavano Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Perhaps not on the cheap, but when you consider a BYOB (click that) you are saving a lot of money on wine. Mandoline and Matyson are among the city's most loved BYOB's. One the cheap: walk over to Reading Terminal Market. Both meat eaters (read: DiNic' roast pork with greens) and vegetarians (I"m thinking mac and cheese with some collards from Delilah's) can pick from among a myriad of food options. Grab a beer in back at the beer garden. Also in RTM is the Down Home Diner; a nice place for breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesachi Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Nodding Head brewpub also has a small handful of veggie menu items, and again great beer. also, literally down the street from nodding head is su xing house, a vegetarian chinese restaurant that is pretty decent. here's a write up my friend wrote last year for the philly weekly. i was pleasantly surprised that my carnivorous brother liked the food, even though it was all vegetarian.
