What did you have? The menu on their website sounds pretty good. Do their wine suggestions correspond to wines that are available at the Wine & Spirits there on Chestnut?

We started off dinner with:
House Cured Lomo with blood orange, chili oil and wild arugula
Roasted Beets with gorgonzola dolce, grilled scallions and red kale
Whole Wheat Bigoli with Shrimp, Scallop and fines herb butter
Squash Ravioli with pecans, parm-regg and rosemary
Wild Striped Bass with salsa verde, fingerling potatoes and carrots
Roasted Whole Poussin with maitake mushrooms, chard and polenta
Dry-Aged Ribeye with potato, braised leeks and penn crisp celery
Blood Orange Sorbet with thyme shortbread cookies
Olive Oil cake- pinenuts, cherries and ice cream
I absolutely loved every dish I had that evening. As far as the wine goes, I'm not sure if the wine suggestions are available at the Wine and Spirits on Chestnut but dinner was fantastic with the bottle we took along.
