Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Chestnut Hill

A perfect pick for our smallish family Thanksgiving dinner. We were stunned by the depth of the menu and the raw bar is probably one of the best I’ve had in a long while. They’ve nailed an elevated menu with comfortable and engaging service in an elegant setting that complements the Philly dynamic - it’s not New York because it doesn’t want to be. Our table lead, Erica, was absolutely amazing, responding to every ask with a yes and here’s something else amazing to go with it. Joe and George were bright spots, making a simple table service and plate clearing an event of their own. Totally and utterly satisfied. We found our new Philly Thanksgiving go-to.

Our Thanksgiving dinner at Fork was everything we hoped for, from inventive takes on traditional dishes (like cranberry sauce flavored with star anise) to the newly renovated (moody, sophisticated) dining room. Highlights included fresh oysters and perfectly dressed tuna crudo, and roasted butternut squash stuffed with tangy labneh. No detail is overlooked—even the parsley butter for the dinner rolls was memorable. Creative cocktails like the “Sibling Rivalry” and a surprisingly smooth barrel aged Wild Turkey (a nod to the presumed centerpiece of the holiday meal) set the vibe, and service found the sweet spot between unobtrusive and efficient. Can’t wait for the seven fishes on Christmas Eve.

The best food and best staff. I will be coming here time and time again ❤️

Redstone is always a great experience! Our waitress was excellent and was able to handle our loud large group of six very well. The food is always delicious. And service is great as well.  It's always decorated very pretty around the holidays too!

Excellent food & service you can tell they really care
