Roxanne in Pennsylvania

"Such an awesome experience and the food was absolutely delicious! One of the best, most thoughtful, and tasty places in Philly. From the decor, to the menu, to the presentation and flavors, it was hit after hit. Can't wait to go back for their tasting experience!"

"The service was seriously impressive at Roxanne. One staff member manned front of house, waited on, and ran dishes for all tables yet was efficient enough that we never felt forgotten or unattended. Food was excellent and the large protein portions were a pleasant surprise. We ordered six dishes for two guests and ended up being full halfway through the meal. My personal favorites were the gnudi and octopus."

"Roxanne might be Philly’s best kept secret. Doing what they do with such a small group of people is extraordinary. I don’t know what’s more impressive: Creating something as uniquely delicious as the Yuzu Poppyseed Cod OR staring at the best burger you’ve ever tasted (as your dessert!!) and wondering how they made something so simple and so perfect. There’s an infinite amount of great restaurants in Philly, but it’s hard to think to one more inspiring than Roxanne. Go now!"

"What an absolutely spectacular experience! The service was warm and friendly and low-key. We felt really taken care of. Then the food started coming out, and we were blown away from the first appetizer all the way through to the end of the meal. We had octopus with onion dip, raw cheesesteak (like an elevated tartare), potato on potato, cod with the tiniest pepperoni ever, persimmon sorbet, and pasta with a Vietnamese style treatment. Everything was so inventive and original. You’re not going to get cooking like this anywhere else maybe in the whole world. A really special experience. I wonder if this is what it would be like to eat at El Bulli."

"I was excited to try Roxanne and it exceeded my expectations. Everything was fun and creative, but it was clear, putting the best bite of food on your plate remains the priority. I know it sounds silly to say, but the bread and butter might be the star of the meal. The bread was piping hot and the better was perfectly salted and flavorful. The raw cheesesteak was great, but the beef on its own might be the best tartare I’ve ever had! The short rib gemelli and duck breast are a must!"

"Incredible, whimsical food! Had the pleasure of dining at Roxanne on a hot day and it felt like the dishes we ate were an artistic commentary on classic summer foods. The combinations of flavors were fun and surprising. This place deserves a Michelin star. Will definitely be back to try more of their amazing creations!"

"A truly memorable dining experience. The burger is, without a doubt, the absolute BEST I’ve ever tasted, complemented by top-tier service that is both professional and incredibly attentive. To top it all off, the chocolate cake is simply INCREDIBLE, unlike anything I’ve had before. It melts in your mouth. I highly recommend this spot to any food enthusiast, it is an absolute must-visit in Philadelphia. Also, the chef runs EVERYTHING on her own in the kitchen… we still can’t figure out how she does it!! Thank you for the incredible experience!"

"She’s a wizard in the kitchen with incredible creativity in her dishes. The tuna cheesesteak and pork chop were the standouts but all th food was delicious. I would definitely recommend a dinner here when you’re in Philly."
