Old City Restaurants

  • Bleu Martini
    • Cuisine: American
    • Neighborhood: Old City
    • Price: $30 and under
  • Bleu MartiniDescription: It's name may be icy cool, but you can't get any hotter than Bleu Martini. Although located in Olde City, there is nothing 'old' about it. The ambience is a cool cove of blue hues & delicious drinks. The bar & the booth-laden dining area are swathed in azure-themed decor, and the musical fare ranges from floor-thumping house to trendy hip-hop, making Bleu Martini the perfect hotspot for a young-at-heart crowd that wants to party while it dines in style. The food is top-notch classic, with full seafood & meat selections & a host of tasty appetizers. But the drinks are perhaps the greatest draw. Skip dessert altogether & replace it with another drink instead. Specifically, try the Milkshake Martini, which is as tasty as it sounds. The popular Flirtini uses Champagne to get your romantic juices going: pure liquor bliss.

  • Buddakan
    • Cuisine: Asian
    • Neighborhood: Old City
    • Price: $31 to $50
  • BuddakanDescription: Stephen Starr's Buddakan is a spectacular restaurant featuring exotic flavors of modern Asian cuisine with creativity and drama. Bon Appetit notes, 'The mostly white space is striking, with a lit-from-within communal table in the middle of the room, a waterfall & a ten-foot, candle-bedecked Buddha. The religious icon watches over hip customers indulging in pan-Asian cuisine that far surpasses the fare usually found at hot spots like this.' Newsweek reports, 'Design also serves as a signifier for cuisine. You walk into Buddakan, one of the hottest new restaurants in Philadelphia, past a shimmering waterfall & Japanese river stones & you say to yourself, 'ginger-miso everything' even before you see the magnificent 10-foot Buddha dominating the dining room.' Named one of 'America's Top 50 Restaurants' by Travel & Leisure and 'Top Restaurant for Fun' by Gourmet, Buddakan has become one of the country's most talked about restaurants.

  • Beneluxx
    • Cuisine: Comfort Food
    • Neighborhood: Old City
    • Price: $30 and under
  • Description: Dinner features crepes, fondues, pizzas, paninis and salads for less than $9.99 seven days a week opening at 5 pm. Our highlight is the wine list with over 40 of the world's highest rated wines available by the glass or sample size. We are Philadelphia's best wine bargain, over a dozen glasses of wine are less than $7.99 a glass! Why pay twice as much for bad oxidized wine elsewhere? Oxidized wines suffer from contact with air since other restaurants do not have our cruvinet system, resulting in browning in white wines, loss of fruit and freshness, and possibly a high level of volatile acidity. Discover why people are calling Beneluxx the best and most extensive wine bargain in Philadelphia. Come taste the difference, you will then understand why our guests say they will never drink re-corked wine again !!!! Beneluxx has Philadelphia's largest Draught Beer selection with 36 of the world's greatest beers, and 50 beers in bottles. Imagine the tasting possibilities!
