Philadelphia Magazine rates this as the best restaurant in the city. After waiting for 2 months for the day of our reservation to arrive, maybe our expectations were too high! Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of great things to say. Service was excellent! The seating was very good; no feeling of being crammed into a small space and everything was tastefully decorated. There were some great highlights. Starting with the crudo which had a mixture of great flavors with the caviar, the tuna, and the crustiness of the “cracker”. I could have eaten 10 of these!! The cod with the peas, leek, and coconut was also crazy good with a creamy texture that made it really inviting. Finally, the bay leaf semifreddo was a perfect ending with the bay leaf adding an unusual flavor to what is often an overly sweet dessert. But that is 3 stand outs in a tasting menu of 8. The rest (tomato, beet, sweetbreads, quail, and New York strip) were all good but didn’t reach the same heights. We also learned that the tasting menu price has risen from the $155 we pre-paid to $165 for future dining (not including drinks). I was hoping for more home runs at these prices, but still was a great night out!!!

Heard a lot about this place, and it exceeded expectations. Food was very interesting and was perfectly cooked and presented. The small elements of texture, smoke, and other neuances really enhanced the entire experience. It was one of my favorite meals of my life, and that includes 3 star Michelin restaurants form NYC and Tokyo. Can't not recommend this enough. The day I was there they had white truffle from Australia... I had to get it with the dishes. It was all so decadent. Good drinks too! Good wine selection (and I'm a wino).

Amazing food and cocktails in a perfect setting. From the first course, your taste buds are awoken by culinary perfection. The servers are elite and very knowledgeable about the menu (and off menu cocktails)!

Wow, wow, wow! What a way to close out the year! At $165, this tasting menu was a steal. In terms of flavors alone, Fri Sat Sun compares favorably against the $250-300 two Michelin star tier. I found Fri Sat Sun more enjoyable because the cooking’s got personality; it doesn’t have the homogeneity and sterility that comes with hunger for stars. Every single dish was designed to impress with big bold flavors, many with enticing aromas. Inspiration came from all parts of the world. Some bites felt Caribbean, some Japanese, some Chinese, some Italian—you get the idea. A few dishes felt inspired by Northeastern fine dining’s greatest hits, but turned entirely into FSS’s own original creations. The crudo, at first glance, is Gabriel Kreuther’s signature dish, a sabayon tart. It has been hybridized with the raw fish tartlet that’s in every single tasting menu nowadays. (Confession: it’s my fine dining PSL. It’s so basic but I love it anyway.) I prefer this over GK’s. The sweetbreads course felt familiar: the sticky fluffy texture of the egg yolk sauce… ah, yes, Aska’s signature langoustine dish! The flavor profile is entirely different, but that addicting mouthfeel of the sauce is recognizable (though Aska still does it better). The steak dish made me wonder if I accidentally walked into an alternate universe where Aquavit were Caribbean instead of Nordic cuisine. And then they poured the allium broth packed with dried shrimp—is China part of the Caribbeans in this alternate universe? I am not implying plagiarism or copycatting. Any art form (which fine dining is) must take inspiration from others’ work and build upon it. It was very fun to experience the re-imagining of others’ signatures. Besides those three, the other dishes did not bring other restaurants to mind. This meal was such a fun journey. Cocktails were excellent with proper chill and dilution. I like bitter herbal flavors so my choices were similar in feel. The Carte Blanche is my favorite of the three for its bright acidity. Service was attentive. The meal was slightly unevenly paced, but who cares when the food’s this tasty.

The cocktails -strong, greatly balanced -were almost my favorite part of the meal. Definite highlights in the eight courses (starter amuse bouche, scallops, bread-type side and desserts) but more "this is ok and interesting" to me than mind blown how good this is.

I finally made it to FSS this year and this was before they won the James Beard Award! I was so happy they won…Well Deserved! I was there to celebrate my birthday and now I am spoiled..it was an OUTSTANDING experience! The Ambiance..The Service…The Music Playlist…ALL STELLAR! FSS is an absolute VIBE! The food is NEXT LEVEL AND ELEVATED! Tasting Menu…The course range from: 1-3 bites…mouthwatering in anticipation of the next course! Our waiter was attentive and provided great insight and feedback on each course! My favs: 1. Lamb 2. Fish 3. Quail 4. Confit Artichokes! I didn’t select the wine pairing…but I will next time…I know it will further elevate the experience! Note: The meal is paid in advance…although pricey…well worth it!

10/10 the service was excellent, the presentation and taste of food was fantastic! Pictured are a few of the beautiful dishes served! Tomatoes in corn puree, beef tartar, beet and goat cheese pasta, and a chocolate hazelnut dessert.

FSS is a must-try if you’re into the Philly food scene. It is quite a price tag and the majority of that cost is going to the culinary technique; the presentations are on the simpler end and there aren’t extreme exotically, innovative combinations. The food is overall exceptional though. The ambiance is nice but it was just a tad too damn dark!

How could you give a freshly awarded James Beard winner anything less than 5 stars? They lived up to the hype in every way! The atmosphere is great, and it isn't too noisy during a full house. The service was excellent from the hostess whom greeted and seated us to the multiple wait staff whom waited on us. They nailed the timing between each dish as we ate from the tasting menu. Operationally the restaurant runs on point. Kudos to the entire staff. I don't eat any beef and they substituted with amazing options that were still complimentary to the original dish. Every dish was full of multiple very complimentary flavors. Nothing was bland. I usually don't eat liver but the liver pate complimented the quail so well. I didn't know I could love liver. Thats why I always say you have to try everything. You never know when it will be prepared in a way that you'll love! I wanted a drink they didn't have the items for so the bartender made me an 'as close to as possible' option at their creativity and it introduced me to something entirely new to my taste buds & food knowledge. They also served us a couple of small bites that weren't on the menu. They were amazing! I loved everything about this place! Almost made me want to work as a chef again. FYI: You can come in to sit at and eat from the bar menu which has a lot of excellent options. It opens at 4:30pm I believe and is first come first served.
