Townhomes in Delaware let you take advantage of Philadelphia’s best restaurants

First things first: When you are talking about food and Philadelphia, you have to talk about the cheesesteaks. One of the best can be found at South Philly institution Tony Luke’s: the Roast Pork Italian, with spicy roast pork, garlic-laden broccoli rabe, gravy, and plenty of provolone. Maybe the only roast pork sandwich to match it is also in South Philly at John’s Roast Pork, where the secret recipe for the namesake hero has been closely guarded for 80 years. And don’t skip ground zero for Philly cheesesteaks, Pat’s King of Steaks, where founder Pat Olivieri first invented the steak sandwich in 1930.

Of course, Philly cuisine is about much more than just cheesesteaks. In fact, the city’s culinary variety can sometimes be overwhelming. Highlights include perennial foodie destination spot Le Bec Fin, with its legendary 8-course tasting menu, and Alma de Cuba, a chic Cuban spot sporting the best ceviches—and mojitos—in the city. Roll up your sleeves before you attack the juicy, oversized burgers at Sketchin Fishtown, or marvel at the all-vegan haute cuisine at Vedge. Other dining spots that are routinely ranked as Philadelphia’s best restaurants include:

• Bibou– rustic French fare at Philly’s classic bistro
• Fountain– Sophisticated fine dining—and an extravagant wine list—at the Four Seasons
• Talula’s Table– Two tables, a year’s wait for reservations, to-die-for 10-course tasting menu
• Vetri– Innovative takes on Italian pasta dishes
• Zahav– Modern Israeli small plates get big ratings
• Amada– Terrific tapas from Iron Chef Jose Garces
• Morimoto– Superb sushi
• Lacroix at the Rittenhouse– Most famous brunch in the city
• Osteria– Delectable thin-crust pizzas
• Tinto– Basque wine bar taken to the next level
