Friday Saturday Sunday

In a historic brick building on a nondescript corner in Rittenhouse Square, Friday Saturday Sunday operated as a neighbourhood institution for 40 years before chef Chad Williams and his wife Hanna took over the project in 2015. The couple have since infused new life into the restaurant and bar, deftly balancing its storied status while keeping the cuisine and attitudes fresh and evolving.

Stop for one of the city’s best cocktails at the first floor bar before heading up to the second floor dining room, where an eight-course tasting menu allows Williams to apply a razor-sharp focus on seasonal, contemporary American cuisine. Friendly, unpretentious hospitality prevents the restaurant from leaning too far into stuffy territory and, when paired with Williams’ low-key elegant stylings, Friday Saturday Sunday is a sure bet any night of the week.
