Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Anthony Bonett

From the OpenTable editors: One of Philadelphai's most unique dining experiences, Moshulu brings diners aboard the deck of a more-than-century-old ship that's been docked on the Delaware for upscale seafood since 1996. The landmark restaurant, featured in movies like "Rocky" and "The Godfather Part II," serves up standout dishes like an “Admiral’s Plateau” of oysters, crab mac and cheese, and lobster frites.

    My siblings and I came here for my birthday and I have been dreaming about the food ever since! The ship was beautiful, food was very budget friendly, and the service was amazing. They were very accommodating about my allergies and gave me a complimentary drink, card, and birthday dessert. I can’t recommend enough!

    We were seated next to a window overlooking the Delaware River on a beautiful Spring eve. We had a waiter ( I think his name was Serillo) who was very attentive and helpful. The food was excellent! I commented to my wife that I hate to go to restaurants and get food that I know I could have done a better job preparing but this wasn't one of those situations. We had an excellent Kale and Beet Salad with a wonderful dressing with pistachios and other good stuff in it. We got the Delmonico steak and Shrimp surf and turf with a spicy garlic butter. It was to die for. The steak was tender and perfectly cooked and not overly expensive.
