Reviews for Silk City in Philadelphia, PA
What an awesome concept. The food far exceeded my expectations. Definitely not the "diner" food I was expecting at almost 1am. ... The entire staff was definitely hustling and looked to actually be enjoying their jobs. I was shocked when I asked about the 20%service fee noted on the bottom of the menu. As a bartender myself I'm normally salty about gratuity , but after the explanationfrom staff about employees not being tipped or taken care of after covid, I'd like to high five owners/management for makingsure your staff is properly taken care of. Still tipped an extra 20% because they deserved it! Read more

I visited this place multiple times and each time I came I can say all the food and drinks are good I mean great. I ordered the... salmon and cornbread and it was so good. The atmosphere was chill and the music was nice. The manager came out multiple times tocheck on us and to make sure the food was excellent. Read more
Great food & drinks! The garden seating is wonderful for a great outdoor dinner! A beer & a frozen painkiller for drinks! Mac &... cheese with shredded beef & roasted tomatoes was so filling and delicious! The cheesesteak egg rolls were amazing! Turkey BLT isa classic! Definitely a great spot in the city for a summer night out! Read more
Great place to go for brunch, good ambiance and outdoor seating, food was ok. Definitely everything we ordered looked amazing... but fell short a little in the wow department. Maybe. 6/10 for taste but on presentation it was a 10/10 and looked absolutelyamazing Read more
Not gonna lie when I saw pictures, let alone walk up to this place I was very turned off. We went with a group of eight and they... were extremely accommodating!!! The service was top notch and the food was out of this world and full of flavor!! Highlyrecommend Read more
Stopped by for a Sunday brunch inside the diner. With the recent heat in Philly, I decided to not reserve a spot on the patio,... but it is an option when making a reservation. Overall, this was a fun brunch spot with a few items that I didn't love. First,service was fairly slow. I would imagine they were short staffed, but it did take a good bit of time from being seated to beingable to order. Next, drinks were tasty, but I would argue overpriced for the amount of drink received and how strong theywere. Finally, in terms of food, the pancakes were excellent. However, I was not a fan of the almost chicken stock flavoredgravy on the chicken and waffles. The flavor was odd, and the gravy made the waffles soft far quicker than normal. I would comeback to give brunch another try, but it's a tough sell when there are other top tier brunch spots. Read more
This place is amazing, I ate here almost ten years and had the most amazing biscuits and gravy... i tried coming back for... breakfast two weeks ago and found they are open 5pm on weekdays but on weekends you can have brunch starting at 11-3 thendinner. Now this time around there's no biscuits and gravy but the chicken and waffels-silk pancakes and- avocado toast knockedit out of the park!!! Read more
