Pennsylvania’s known for its unique dining experiences, but you won’t find one quite as distinctive as Double Knot in Philadelphia, a Japanese restaurant with a whole lot of personality.
Double Knot sprawls out over two floors with each floor offering a one-of-kind ambiance. Upstairs is a cocktail bar, but go underground to the sushi bar and izakaya.
Partially illuminated by candlelight and oozing a moody atmosphere, the downstairs sushi bar will likely leave you awe-struck. Then when you see the menu? Well, you’re in for a culinary experience you won’t soon forget.
Sip a cold cocktail as you browse the menu that features meat, fish, and Robatayaki. For a delightfully delicious meal, try the veggie, meat, pork, chicken, or seafood Robatayaki.
If you’re not too hungry, you have plenty of small plates from which to choose – from beef dumplings and wild mushroom gyoza to spicy baked scallops and crab and edamame.
Now, if you’re really hungry, go for the Chef’s Choice, which allows you to sample a little bit of everything – 10 different selections and two Robatayaki.
