Pepperoni Pizza
Joyce K.

Came to High Street for July 4th and had such a great experience! We got a salad, pizza (pepperoni and another with arugula and prosciutto), and chicken pasta. The pizza was definitely the highlight - we loved it so much that we ended up getting a third. They were also able to make us custom mocktails after we gave them a flavor profile, which was fun! The inside is cozy and elevated, perfect for a special night out!

Allium pizza

This was our second visit to High street. Based on both experiences, I found the food to be very consistent along with service. The halibut was cooked perfectly, and I enjoy the fresh spring vegetables that came with it - and the beluga lentils! The rock shrimp pasta was the star, well seasoned, savory deliciousness and a perfect bite to the pasta. I loved that the menu was updated with seasonal ingredients compared to our visit in the winter. The restaurant itself is bright, well lit and inviting. We had reservations on a Saturday at 5:15pm but there were at least half the bar seats available. We look forward to returning in the future, possibly for the tasting menu!

Yum!! Haven't been here and years, not sure what I was waiting for! Stopped in today for lunch, even right at open, their we're a few tables of customers. Our server was super friendly and checked in enough without being overbearing. Our food came out fast and fresh. I got the chicken caesar salad which was GREAT. It was such an elevated salad compared to the standard caesar you get. The rest of my groups food looked great as well. I'll def be back soon!

Took my daughter to Philly for the weekend and stumbled into High Street on Market for brunch without a reservation -- walked right in, no drama. Already off to a good start. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, service was genuinely great (attentive without being hovery), and then the food showed up and honestly just shut us both up for a few minutes. I had the cipollini onion bialy with dill-cured salmon, fromage blanc, and all the fixins -- and I mean ALL the fixins. Soft-boiled egg, capers, pickled everything, microgreens, tomatoes. It looked like a still life painting and tasted even better. The bialy itself was perfectly chewy, the salmon silky, and the fromage blanc was a smarter, lighter move than the usual cream cheese. Plate was basically clean. My 12-year-old went for the cast iron Dutch baby with roasted apples, malted caramel, and maple syrup. It arrived puffed up and golden, and she demolished it. No notes. This place earns every bit of its reputation. If you're in Philly and skipping it, you're making a mistake.

Came by NYE. They were extremely slow to take my order and I had plans at a certain time so I asked to order and make it TOGO. They ended up giving my pizza item complimentary! I ended up tipping much more to cover it a little bit but very gracious and unexpected gesture. More uncommon to see these days and very appreciated! Food was also delicious.

High Street deserves a lot of recognition! It's a cozy place in the historic Franklin Building. I'd describe it as chic and I really enjoyed the art in the restaurant. Service was top notch. Not intrusive, but attentive and helpful. We ended up here for a last minute lunch and I'm so glad they were able to accommodate us. From drinks to the food, we loved everything. We started with bread and butter (I'm a big fan of warm bread and soft butter and this lived up to my expectations), an amazing salad (I wanted to recreate it at home), and the soup of the day. Followed by the popular crispy chicken caesar hoagie and delicata squash pizza. Yes, carbs heavy and I loved every moment of the meal!

What a great place to enjoy lunch in Center City Philly! A cozy spot that buzzing with patrons having a delicious meal. Made reservations through OpenTable. I met up with a friend there, and our server was so very friendly and engaging in conversation. I had ordered the Crispy Chicken Caesar Hoagie. The combination of the kale and Parmesan with the crunch of the chicken was such an incredible flavor, I wish I ordered another to go! Overall, a great spot to dine in! Can't wait to return here!

My friends and I decided to come here for dinner because High Street was recently added to the Michelin Guide's Recommendations list. I had previously come here for brunch for my sister's birthday and was interested in trying their dinner items. Food Ordered: * worth trying - [Charred Savoy Cabbage, Chanterelle Beurre Blanc*]: I liked the smoky flavor of the cabbage and thought that the beurre blanc paired well with it. - [Gently Poached Shrimp, Castelvetrano Salsa Verde, Toasted Pistachios]: I don't personally like olives and didn't realize that castelvetrano is a type of olive so I'm a bit biased in not recommending this dish. But, I also wasn't a big fan of the taste of the pistachios used or the combination of textures. - [Spaccatelli, Trumpet Mushrooms, Buckwheat, Leeks, Egg Yolk*]: Conversely, I liked the textures and flavors of this dish, with the buckwheat bringing a nice crunchy element. - [Pizza with Delicata Squash, Burrata, Honey, Calabrian Chili, Oregano]: The crust was fantastic and the perfect amount of crispy. I liked the flavors except for the fresh oregano leaves, which I didn't prefer the taste of, but thought that the pizza was a bit too sweet as I ate more of it. There was also too much moisture from the toppings causing the bottom crust to become progressively soggy. I would recommend their pizza because of the A1 crust but I would probably choose a different set of toppings next time. I do think this set of toppings was worth trying though. Would I go back?: Definitely for their pizza and baked goods! When I had their brunch, those were the two things I liked the most and the pizza from dinner was the best item from that meal. I think they do bread-like items well but I would more accurately rate High Street a 3.5 because I didn't think their other items left a strong inpression on me.

Portions have potentially gone down, but service is attentive as always. Good casual - business casual place to have a meal but may be a bit overpriced now. I thought the bakery closed but turns out they just changed locations!

Inside decor
Miles A.

Stopped in for lunch and it's a fairly cozy layout inside decorated nicely. Welcomed in and sat quickly, though the bar or low top tables are best. I disliked the half height stool tables as others mentioned. As to the food, the bread is phenomenal. Crusty with a soft inside, sourdough style. Slightly warm so the butter melts. Had the niçoise tuna salad which was quite sizable and all very fresh ingredients. Dressing was a perfect amount to toss the salad in and didn't weigh it down much or make it soggy. Very filling and a good price. Definitely want to come in for happy hour and dinner to try that menu. Thanks

What a wonderful little treat of a place nestled next to its sister coffee shop. It's a nice spot to enjoy a hearty Italian inspired meal. They work with seasonal ingredients, and make their own bread with smelt flour. We enjoyed the warm olives, stracciatella salad, and their allium pizza - plus their peach cobbler for dessert! The ingredients were fresh and I like the twist in flavor profiles of dishes familiar but the added edits were a great experience! Our service was decent, a little absent minded at times but overall got the job done. In the end, they were kind enough to provide us with a loaf of their bread to take home - so nice!! Enjoy your time - it's a great meal!

lemon ricotta pizza
Elaine T.

They waited to seat us about 5-10 minutes after our reservation time. The interior is also dark and intimate. The food was really good but I think I've had better pizza elsewhere. It did smell and taste really fresh though. The salad was delicious with the croutons. Need to come back for brunch!

Hanger steak
Alexa C.

This was our first time at High Street and we will definitely be returning. My wife and I went for a date night. From the time we arrived everyone was so friendly and accommodating. We were early for our reservations so the hostess sat us at the bar while we waited for our table to be ready. We both had the Vermont amigio which was great and the bartenders were so friendly and helped us with recommendations for dinner. When we were sat our waiter was also super helpful and friendly. We started with the Caesar salad which was large and very tasty. Then we got the black garlic knots which were insanely delicious. Lastly came the kennett square mushrooms which was incredible and by far my favorite dish of the night. For our entrees I got the hanger steak which was plated beautifully and was very good. My wife got the pepperoni pizza which was extremely tasty! We couldn't pass up on dessert even though we were beyond full. We shared the butter cake which really ended our night with a great farewell taste. I would 100% recommend High Street to anyone! From the ambiance, service and food all were 10/10. Thank you all for a great night!

The dish was delicious. I enjoyed my plate of sea-inspired tonnarelli nero. Bay scallops in crab ragu with fennel sofrito. Served with squid ink pasta that imparted a slight brininess. The pasta was cooked pangrattato style-- coated in panko bread crumbs and garlic. The dish had many flavors but they all came back to the theme. Cocktail prices and entree prices were very reasonable. They offer happy hour drinks and specials. Certainly a very good choice if you're in the area.

I personally would order this as my meal if I could. room temp, oily, good crunch to soft ratio. Judion Beans: good beans. they are on a similar wavelength as butter beans. honestly I get them for the table for the extra bowl of oil at the bottom to dip the crusts in. Creamy Oregano Salad: very interesting. small shaves of mushroom and fennel. very slight bitter taste. oddly addictive. the olives were my favorite part. i'd consider these friendly olives to those suspicious of olives. and the olives are cut in halves, so easy to pick out. so are the mushrooms. easy split for a table of four. beyond that i'd get two. *ADD ON* pickled chilies: very good. I suggest adding this to the pie. they are green, spicy, delicious, absolutely lovely. Corn Pizza: all together very delicious. my favorite part are the cherry tomatoes on top, which I would really like to be an add on option to other pies. they are the perfect flavor and size. i'm not particularly a tomato fan, especially whole. these are a rare exception. Classic Pizza?: solid, no notes. good as always. My only wish is that they offered a sauce to dip my crust in. they have very good crust, perfect ration of crispy and fluffy. just needs a sauce. Overall, great service, the manager greeted us to check on our meal, our server was attentive, the vibe is great inside.

I loved the burrata! Super creamy and well complemented by the umami flavor of the mushrooms. Mains: Pizza Arrabbiata and Roasted Peppers Pizzas - Both were delicious! If you liked spicy, you'll love the arrabbiata. The cream and cherry pepper vinaigrette on the red pepper pizza was so perfectly savory with a hint of acidity. If you have to go with one, I vote for the red pepper pizza.

We got the gnarlic knots which were decently tasting, but since it was to go, we didn't check it before it left. They didn't put on the parm-romano cheese and they didn't include the garlic dipping sauce. It just seemed like the running around not knowing who was going what led to oversight. There are tables to dine in, but it's not too much to expect not to inspect food to go to make sure it's as ordered. It seems like this location was just disorganized and the quality of the food suffered.

I was immediately seated upon arriving to Pizzeria Vetri. I was asked if I wanted to sit at the bar, at a table, or at the pizza counter. I chose the pizza counter so that I could watch staff making pizzas. As I was there on my own, the serving staff continued to stop by and check on me. The menu includes neopolitan pizzas (12" feeding 1-2 people) and metro pizzas (28" feeding 3-4 people). They make pizzas, calzones, antipasti, and salads. I chose a Neapolitan-style pepperoni pizza consisting of pepperoni, tomato sauce, mozzarella, and fresh oregano. It was quite filling and absolutely delicious! They also sell pizza kits so that you can make your own pizza at home. Pizzeria Vetri was created to celebrate the art of authentic pizza making. They aimed to create simple food made exactly the right way using the best and freshest ingredients served in a space where all are welcome.
