After living in Philadelphia for 4+ years it sucks that I've only gotten to visit this restaurant once I moved. It was wonderful. The food is great and really fills a different sort of niche in Philly. The restaurant itself is cool and sleek and our waiter was awesome. Super knowledgeable with the menu, attentive, and also just seemed like an incredibly nice dude. I'm so bummed it's closing - it was an awesome experience.

So special Jewish dishes and wonderful menu dining experience!!! The housemade roll and all the bread in the dishes are so tasty that I had too much carb for sure. Strongly recommend the chicken liver mousse and Montreal smoked short ribs, must order!!! The overall tasting experience is just amazing!

Having been here three times, Abe Fisher was a phenomenal experience each time, taking Jewish Ashkenazi food to unprecedented heights. I’m so sad they are closing. The menu during my last visit was the “Greatest Hits” menu. The service was incredible, Justin was the best waiter we ever had in Center City. We started off with the Roll Right In cocktail which was magical with the za’atar finish. Then the challah rolls came in with the spreads, each delicious. Then came the roasted sweet potatoes and the heirloom tomato caesar salad, both were very tasty. Then came the latke fries which are the best I’ve tried. Then came the veal schnitzel tacos which are some of the best tacos my gf and I have had in our lives. Finally, the short ribs arrived. What can I say? It’s perfect pastrami on another level. Unforgettable. Last came the desserts, of which my favorite was the bacon and egg cream. All in all, this spot will go down as one of the legendary places I’ve been to. The chefs behind the ki
