    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!

    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

    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

    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!

    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!

    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!

    We had dinner at High Street using our Chase Sapphire dining credits. We were able to snag a reserved reservation through the card, getting a prime spot on a Friday night. We are lucky to live close enough to walk, so the location is ideal for us. Even with res, we did wait a little bit to be seated, which was no big deal. The restaurant is decently large, although it can get a little loud. Our server was a little slow to take our order, but the food came out at a decent pace after that (it actually could have been a little slower with each dish). For drinks, I opted for red wine (it was a cold December day, red hit the spot!) and my husband opted for a cocktail. For food, we didn't want to make choices, so we went for the chef's tasting, letting the kitchen select all our dishes. Our server didn't fully explain how many dishes to expect or which sections we'd get items from, so we were a little in the dark of what to expect, which made it hard to pace. We were started off with some olives, which were briny and smooth, a great starter. We then had a pate with grilled bread, a mixture of veggies, and a savory jam. I'm not a pate person, but there version was doable and tasty, especially with the accompaniments. We then had a shrimp dish with an olive salsa and pistachios - this was fresh and light with a good blend of flavors. Our pasta dish featured mushrooms, leeks, and an egg yolk that got blended into the dish upon mixing. This was quite a unique pasta dish that was good, but for how well Philly does pasta, didn't rank among my top dishes. The black garlic knots came out around this same time. A Yelp fan favorite, I was excited to try them; they were quite good, so soft and with delish savory flavors. This was one of the highlights of the meal! Our first bigger dish was the roast half chicken, featuring potatoes and leeks alongside the meat. The chicken featured such crispy skin and was yet so moist inside. The potatoes were OK, nothing too exciting as a side, but the sauce underlying the entire dish made for a nice pairing. The second bigger dish was their trout, accompanied by chickpeas, sweet peppers, and a cream sauce. This was another nice dish, with tender fish and crispy chickpeas balancing each other; however, it wasn't super memorable. Our meal was rounded out with a little bread pudding cake with a caramel sauce for dessert. This was heavier than I would have liked given all the dishes we already enjoyed, but still had excellent flavors. The chef's tasting had a ton of food (we took a lot home), and at $75 per person, it was quite a good deal. I wish we could have swapped one of the bigger dishes for a pizza to try that out, and I wish we had better warning of what dishes to expect from our server once we started. While it was a great deal, I probably will just order a la cart next time to better curate my own menu. Nonetheless, this was a fun date night, and we appreciated Chase Sapphire's dining credits giving us an excuse to try a new-to-us restaurant!

But, I must tell you... Hershel's Corned Beef Reuben was way better than any sandwich I ever had there. The cut of meat is thicker and the portion sizes are huge. My husband thinks he heard the guy say it was three-quarters of a pound of corned beef. I believe it because it definitely felt like there was at least 6 ounces on my half of the sandwich. I'm glad we decided to split it. It was totally worth the price that we paid for it. We arrived around 4:00 pm on a Thursday. It was busy at the market, but not as busy as it was on Saturday. We were tossed between the Reuben and the Rachel. The difference is that the Rachel has cole slaw instead of sauerkraut. I don't think you can go wrong either way. It didn't take long for the order to be ready. The service was great. They split the sandwiches and wrapped them individually. We each got a pickle spear. We didn't have to go too far to find seats. They have bar seating along the back counter that's specifically for their customers. The Reuben was very tasty. I even liked the pickle. I think they have desserts, but we had no room for it. I'd love to return one day to try their pastrami, and maybe even the breakfast. I wish we would have had more time to try one of these sandwiches on Challah bread. The menu has a little something for anyone craving a Jewish style deli experience. It's worth a visit when at Reading Terminal Market.

Their menu has a great mix of deli, steak, "chicken" steak, meatball, sausage and cutlet sandwiches with interesting flavor combos. You can also get breakfast (till 11AM) or a salad. They also have sides that include - tots, fried pickle chips, onion rings, fries, fried mozzarella and Zayda's pickle spears, chips and cherry pepper shooters. They have a couple of vegan options and GF rolls for extra $$. The staff was more than happy to give recommendations and their favs. My first lunch was The Eye - $15 Ribeye steak, Cooper Sharp American, fried onions came on a seeded Liscio's roll. If you enjoy the somewhat newer Cooper sharp style that's out there you'll like theirs. The Cooper sharp was gooey, mixed in well with the meat and on the heavier side. The ribeye was thin cut, delicious and the portion was pretty hefty. Second visit I went with - The Nad - $15 Chicken cutlet, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, Mike's Hot Honey that came on an unseeded Liscio's roll. The portion size was good, chicken was fresh with good breading, the hot honey was a tad on the heavy side, but the flavors all came together pretty good on this one. Sweet, salty, light bitterness from the arugula and some heat from the hot honey. I added Thin Cut Idaho fries to make it a combo for $3 extra and I have to say they were delicious. They smelled like McD's and tasted similar. They are cash only, but have an ATM on site. You can use a card if you order online. The one bathroom they have was pretty clean and organized. I will certainly stop back for a visit if I'm in the area to try out more of their menu. Thanks guys!
