Impromptu Dinner on Valentine's Day
First off, the picture here of Laurel is an old pic of the dining room. The dining room has been transformed into a dining space you really don't want to leave. They did a magnificent job, not that the old space was bad. THIS is more. It seems that a

This was our first time at Laurel. It was an amazing experience. Service was friendly, attentive but not intrusive. And the food! Chef does something special with every dish but his treatment of vegetables was exceptional. I would gladly eat the or
What's Not to Love about Laurel
First of all the picture here on the TripAdvisor page of the restaurant is dated. It is how the dining room looked before it was completely renovated last year. It was nice before, but now, you just don't want to leave. You can make reservations for
Best meal I've had in Philly
We tried about 12 things on the menu, plus dessert. Dessert wasn't anything special but everything else was delicious. Carabiner, scallops, wagyu beef, and boquerones were my favorites.
A mixed review
The ambiance was pleasant, though the music didn't feel appropriate to it. Servers and staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and timely. We felt welcome, and were not rushed. The menu/ food was mixed in my opinion. Some things were quite tasty; some ju
Delicious! Worthy of its consistent high praise.
Delicious! Dishes are intended to be shared and we enjoyed Gnocchi, Wagyu Beef, Tuna, Celery Salad, Eggplant, Duck, and Boquerones — each excellent. Duck and Beef both very tender.
A Great Place That Has Morphed into Something Really Special
First of all, do not pay attention to the picture displayed here of the old dining room arrangement. The dining room looks nothing this, having undergone a fairly recent metamorphosis. Now, it borders on spectacular. Enhancements have also been made
Michelin star level
Food was phenomenal and service matched! Best scallop dish in Philadelphia and gnocchi better than Fiorella or Vetri.

exceptional food & service
We had a fabulous dinner tonight at Laurel. I Love the new decor and the private garden out back is perfect for a small group. Highly recommend this restaurant. You simply "Must" try this place.
Came here for my bf & I's anniversary.
There aren't too many tasting menus in Philly so we wanted to try Laurel. It was a great dining experience over all, very intimate and attentive. Some of the tastings were a hit or miss for us.

What a nice dining experience!Our party of four landed a 5:30 PM reservation on a Saturday at Laurel. Some may argue that's senior citizen dining time, but I would much rather dine earlier than in the later hours of the evening. Who can sleep well on

I think the uniqueness to Laurel is that, there aren't many places in the city that truly give you a Michelin Star type of experience...but Laurel is there. From service, to creativity in the dishes, to the innovative plating...they capitalize on the
You gotta love when you have the best meal ever.
Acceptionally seasoned. Absolute perfection. And I never mentioned the old fashioned. I have zero negative comments. Awesome.

The tasting menu features really fresh ingredients that have clean, strong flavors. I liked the farm to table aspect of the restaurant. The only option is a tasting menu for $140, and I was a little disappointed in the portions and the length of the

Fantastic place, food, and service! We opted for the tasting menu which was 7 courses. A few of my favs were the quail, the caviar, and the yuzu curd dessert (seriously did not expect to love this!!) .. just exquisite food with fantastic presentati
Very creative .
The service is exceptional. This should be a MICHELIN star . Best caviar dish !
Wonderful experience
Amazing tasting menu. Outstanding service. Diligently accommodated food restrictions. They provided a special complimentary additional dessert for birthday celebration. We brought our wine. They charge a $25 corkage fee. Very fair. Great experience.

An excellent tasting menu with attentive service, intimate lighting and excellent dishes. Tasting Menu for 2 for my Birthday Celebration. Reservations made about 1 month in advance. We did add in an additional truffle pasta dish, which was totally wo
This place was different from our taste.
Honestly, I was really looking forward to it, but it didn't taste good. And there was a male employee, who was racist . We were the only Asians, but he was unfriendly to us. The same goes for the male chef here! And I was disgusted by the smell of de
Extremely underwhelming.
This was my 2nd time at Laurel & it was unfortunately a big disappointment. The service is great, the wine & cocktails are amazing, & the ambiance is very pleasant however with that said, every single dish was a disappointment. There was

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Laurel Restaurant Philadelphia at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Laurel Restaurant Philadelphia page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ImmortalStep65, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ImmortalStep65 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ImmortalStep65 for any questions Peter may have as ImmortalStep65 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ImmortalStep65 now uses their connections at Laurel Restaurant Philadelphia to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ImmortalStep65 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ImmortalStep65 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ImmortalStep65's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Laurel Restaurant Philadelphia!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
