Reviews for Double Knot in Philadelphia, PA
Very intimate and cozy main dining area. The ambiance is unique and it’s a great experience. Many Small plates and shareable... options. Our server was attentive and made sure to explain the menu thoroughly when we were ordering. Drinks were great as well. Read more
I never wanted to like a restaurant more than this. The atmosphere, the staff, the over vibe was perfect. I was excited to do... the tasting menu and each dish came out super quickly and had amazing preparation. But then I tasted them, and each dish wasslightly off somehow. The scallops were slightly fishy or the meat was slightly underseasoned or the rice was too sweet oretc... each dish was close to being good but missed the mark. I did however really enjoy my experience there given the ambianceand large portions made me get my money's worth. Read more
The Japanese food here is some of the best. For places that try to bring modern Japanese to a swanky atmosphere and incorporate... candle light and cocktails, maybe no one in Pennsylvania does it better. The attention to detail in these small plates isevident. With these small plates comes the opportunity to try a large selection and I'd recommend doing just that. Our sushiwas spot on, our skewers were cooked just right, and out dumplings were full of flavor. I'm not giving this 5 stars for onereason alone; poor reservation management. The reservation was easy to make. We got there (party of two) 1min ahead of outreservation time. The host told me it would be "a few moments." 20min after my reservation time we were still waiting. I wastold the delay was due to our table not being set. I asked if we were waiting on another party to leave and was told that wasnot the case. I was finally sat 23min after my reservation time. I know times are hard and staff can be hard to come by. But ifyour establishment cannot handle the volume, then don't allow for so many reservations. A 23min delay does not encouragere-patronage.

Always a great time, best tasting in the city! Hazel is a saint and always delivers a great experience. Their knowledge of sake... is amazing! Food was impeccable, we went with all choices we’ve never tried and found some new favorites in the Creamy Udonand Pork Belly. Read more
My girlfriend and I can here tonight to celebrate our first year anniversary and this place was incredible. We were seated... downstairs in the corner from the bar. We were greeted by a very nice and welcoming waitress. I loved her energy and vibe; shemade the night extra special for us. We ordered the tasting menu and a few of their cocktails and everything was 10/10. Theplace was beautiful, and everything about it was great. Again, we were very impressed by the food and the friendly service bythe waitress. We will definitely be coming back again. Read more
Very unique and upscale place for a night out. Beautiful and romantic atmosphere, good service, and tasty meals. Don't let them... scare you about ordering 4-5 plates per person! We ordered 2 meals per person and found it was more than enough. Plus you canalways find good options(their skewers maybe be small but it's very filling). The cocktails are ones of the best I've ever had! Read more
We got the chef’s tasting menu and it was well worth every penny! Got to try so many delicious dishes with a standout being... the edamame dumplings. The downstairs restaurant really feels like a Japanese restaurant with the moody, dim lit ambiance andsushi counter. The server was very friendly and answered all of our questions. Can’t wait to go back! Read more
Had a fabulous experience here! Decided to go off the tasting menu and order our own plates. We ended up WAY over ordering even... by staying within the dish count they recommended. The waitress was super gracious and let us cancel a dish when it was apparentwe wouldn’t even finish what we already had. All the food was delicious! The skewers in particular were very good. Theatmosphere was also perfect for a date night. It was dark and trendy but still quiet enough to have a conversation. Read more
