About this business
It has been said that the owner consulted a Feng Shui expert when designing the harmoniously arranged interior of this restaurant. In the belief that superior food must be balanced by not only quality service but an equally balanced environment, there is an intriguing, moody, film-noir quality to the space. The menu has a way of appealing to the senses in a sort of subliminal way, combining an otherwise common ingredient with a surprising twist. See website for full menus and more. Note the extensive lists of both wine and i... read more

Check out Fork Etc. (right next door) for awesome imports and take-out. – The little store on the side of this restaurant is wonderful. As far as I know, they're the best (if not the only) place in Old City to get delicious imported French, Italian, and Spanish cheeses and crusty baguettes with which to enjoy them. They also have a variety of crackers and biscuits for serving your cheese course, and many freshly made sides and specialty entrees. For my money, it doesn't get better than the spiced goat cheese on English walnu... read more
Liked it did not love it – We walked in on a friday night without a reservation in April and were treated very well. Given a great table, and told it had to turn over in an hour and fifteen minutes, which was fine by us as we had to travel anyway. Service was fine, food was good but nothing out of this world. This was a great experience, but given the hype was not blown away. You will love this place if you come without great expectations. If you expect the best meal in your life, do not come here. For an Old City experience... read more
Great Service – I went to Fork this past weekend and I must say the most outstanding was the customer service. I had reservations for 6pm and was about 15 min late. (Parking can be difficult unless you are willing to pay)This was not a problem. We were seated right away and greeted by a pleasant server. She was more than happy to explain certain dishes to us on the menu that we had never tried before. Unfortunately, we were seated in the back right by the kitchen. Some people like to see their dishes being prepared though, m... read more
Classy joint – Serious eating and drinking establishments don't make apple martinis because they aren't real drinks. This isn't Friday's, afterall. Fork is an elegant and sophisticated space that for some reason, doesn't feel stuffy. I go there regularly for brunch. The cocktails are always amazing (bloody mary especially) and the food is always fresh. The hostesses are gems and the service is typically good. Getting good service at the bar can be a challenge, but nonetheless, I'd recommend it to anyone. I've also had food f... read more
Excellent Atmosphere and Food – The elegant yet funky decor at Fork was the first thing to allure me. After reviewing an eclectic and extensive wine list, our waiter helped us choose several different wines as members of our table were quite varied in the preference - sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, pinot grigio, and merlot. Our waiter was excellent in helping us pair our wines with our food, which far surpassed my expectations. Fork puts a delightful spin on typical upscale cuisine - incorporating uniquely savorous sides such ... read more
great food, alittle crowded, nice atmosphere, we found the wait staff good could have been alittle faster with the food
Great Party – I held a party in their private room and it was excellent. Everyone commented on how beautiful the room and mural in the room were. The food was delicious and the staff was wonderful. I would recommend this restaurant to hold a party and would hold my next party there.
Old City stalwart continues to draw national accolades for its New American cuisine and reliance on fresh, local ingredients. – In Short An era has ended for one of the primary restaurants to spur Old City's 1990's renaissance, as original chef Thien Ngo has retired to his native Vietnam to be replaced by Maia and Striped Bass alum Terence Feury. Under the guidance of national food darling, owner Ellen Yin, Feury shifts Fork's New American cuisine ever so slightly to emphasize hearty artisanal, handmade (and locally sourced)... read more
Restaurant Week Review – I went during RestaurantWeek, and was disappointed. The menu we were given, the menu on their website, and the menu on the Week website (that's 3 menus) were all different, and then they were out of an entree and all veggies! After ordering, we found out that another entree had run out, and was replaced with an entree that had partial substitutions! It is hard to understand how a restaurant with filled reservations doesn't anticipate ordering enough food! Service was slow, something had burned in the... read more
