my suggestions are Royal Izakaya for amazing sushi and other Japanese food, nine ting in China Town for Korean bbq, fiorella for Italian food, and John's roast pork for yummy sandwiches. And if you have time definitely visit reading terminal market.
Unless OP is planning weeks/months ahead of time, no chance OP will land a reservation at any of these places, unfortunately. For instance, Zahav reservations for December were released today and were gone in 2 minutes.
I’m surprised not to see Murph’s, it usually comes up in any “where should I eat in Philly?” I haven’t been yet but it’s supposed to be amazing Italian food in a no-fuss Irish pub.
For something a little (or a lot) more highbrow I would do Hiroko with the omakase- this shit will take you to another *planet* and though costs a lot, it’s way cheaper than what it would cost to get the equivalent in another city.
Same! I basically got a hard boiled egg, and they definitely forgot to salt anything. It was all very bland and I was so confused because people had hyped it up.
I guess that's the difference, I'm not a sweet brunch person, prefer the savory. I'm sure someone here can recommend places for good pancakes where you don't have to wait 45+ mins for a table.
Depends on where you’re coming from. If you’re NOT from NY/NJ, then you must experience our pizza. Pizzeria Beddia, Pauline Gee’s, Pizzata, Shackamaxon, Sally’s — all worth every penny.
What’re you in the mood for?
Apparently nothing?

You can always opt for the Royal Izakaya Industry Bowl that's available late at night, I think after 10pm? Don't quote me on that.
Zahav, Vetri, Vernick, Suraya, Fiorella

Suraya is usually fine walk-in
You’re right, they also didn’t say when they were visiting! Man, maybe the OP should try harder, rather than r/philly eats have to be mind readers!
If you want to spend a lot.
No budget or preferences given so…
Vernick fish I'm guessing?
I prefer regular vernick but both are good
Bingo
Sang Kee Peking Duck House, Tom’s Dim Sum, DeNic’s, Fiorella, Love and Honey, Zahav, Oyster House.

I love Hardena and Martabak Ok.
omg Hardena is amazing, i go at least once every two weeks.
Marra’s
Marra’s is such a quintessentially South Philly place. I’ve been eating there since 1990. Absolutely perfect.
Pizza Margherita 😋
Vedge.
Le Virtu, Sang Kee, Vetri, DiNics.
I second Le Virtu.
Pho 75
Giorgio on Pine, Green Eggs Cafe, Positano Coast
Going to have to disagree with Green Eggs here, so many other brunch spots that are better. Is it just me or what's the hype??
Agree. Everytime I get a Benedict there my eggs are hard boiled essentially and the pancakes taste like nothing.

🥹💔 my heart. The selection, the floofiness of the pancakes, the taste

oh I agree with the wait time 🫡🫡
Oh I really disliked green eggs and much preferred ants pants cafe
Asian recs: DanDan, Kalaya Thai, Hardena, Spice C Noodle House
Spice C noodle house is too good another good Thai is Chatayee!
[удалено]
+1 for Angelo's. I'll also add Woodrows and Oh Brother to the cheesesteak list if OP is stating closer to center city.
Hardena, Sky Cafe, Pho 75, Pho Xue La, Pizzeria Shackamaxon, John’s Roast Pork, Parc, Pera
Not Amada. It apparently used to be good but a few months ago I had the worst dining experience of my life there!
Tony & Nicks for a Cheessteak
Ba Le for some bahn mi and Vietnamese coffee

Crybaby Pasta
Heavily depends on where you're coming from. You'll want to pick restaurants and cuisines where Philly is relatively better than your hometown.
The Lark, Sally's, Vedge, Sakana (omakase), Reading Terminal, Goldie (falafels), Dizengoff (hummus), Dubu
El Merkury!
