Tinto remains a favorite restaurant of mine in Philly.  I was taken there by a friend for my birthday.  It was delicious as always and they even provided dessert with a candle.

Little Pete's Restaurant is non assuming.  I've walked by plenty of times without giving it much thought except that there's usually a small loyal clientele when I walk by. 

We were hungry and looking for food and gave it a try.  It hits the spot for fun outdoor service with pleasant staff.

Pho 75 is the place featured with Anthony Bourdain for Pho in Philadelphia.  This is for good reason.  The Pho is very good.

Good Stuff Eatery (Rittenhouse Philadelphia, PA) 2014-08-02

Good Stuff Eatery (Rittenhouse Philadelphia, PA) 2014-08-02

Good Stuff Eatery
108 S 18th St
Philadelphia, PA 19103

Top Chef Spike Mendelson has expanded his Good Stuff Eatery Empire to Philadelphia, PA in the Rittenhouse neighborhood.

The burgers are quite good and you can now specify the temperature you want the burger cooked at.  The meat is thick and there are plenty of burgers to choose from.  The milkshake selection is quite large as well and many sauces are offered for their fries.  A worthy competitor to Shake Shack as the number of quality burger places in Philadelphia grows.
