Booker's Restaurant & Bar

• Rating: 4.5 (1.6K reviews)
• Cuisine: Southern
• Price Range: $$
• Tags: Women-Operated, Black-Owned, Outdoor Dining, Best of Brunch, Where to Drink, Date Night
• Location: West Philadelphia
  This West Philly hot spot, named for celebrated African American waiter Booker Wright, had already made its mark when Trenton power couple Cheri and Tracey Syphax took it over in the spring of 2023 … And it’s gotten even better. Expect an easy-to-love comfort food menu that ranges from Green Goddess hummus to fish and chips to limoncello cake.

SOUTH Restaurant

• Rating: 4.8 (3.5K reviews)
• Cuisine: Southern
• Price Range: $$
• Tags: Black-Owned, Good for Groups, Date Night, Climbing, Global Dining Access
• Location: Spring Garden/Fairmount
  First thing you do at South: Get the cornbread. Don’t even think about it, just do it, whether it’s for you alone or not. Fried green tomatoes, mac and cheese, gumbo — these are all reasons to dine here. But then the live jazz starts in the other room, and the whole evening just grooves.
